When they have a batch of hot pies or

NEGROES SANG AT WORK.
im< entertained French Opeta Sins
era in the Streets ot New
Orleans.
The French opera singers were specta*
tors of a picturesque street scene a night
or two ago in the vicinity of the old
French opera house, says the New Or
leans Times-Demoerat. Bourbon street
was being paved with asphalt, and ths
work was being hastened so as to hav»
that portion of the street near the opera
house accessible for carriages by th<
time of the opening of the French op
•ra season.
On this account an unusually large
force of workmen were engaged, and in
order to push the work to an early com
pletion the men worked at night, huge
torches being used. In one block, be
tween St Louis and Toulouse streets,
iiore than 100 men were working.
Every one familiar with the negro
knows that, in so far as he is able, he
sets his work to music. It is a fact often
marveled at that the negro, when he is
dinging or chanting in a sort of rhythmic
mood, works with more ardor than under
different conditions. And if an extra de
mand is made on the negro workman he
lings or chants the louder.
The members of the French opera, or
at least many of them, heard for the first
time the real melody of the negro voice
that night. It was that swishful, poetic
thing caricatured in the ragtime of ths
stage, a certain subtle, Indefinable some
thing wmcn no composer nas ever Deen
able to fit to the well-measured octaves
of musical arrangements. It was the
tuneful, heaving call of the levee, tha
mellow sunset cry of the cotton fields.
The flaring torch, the bustling hither and
thither, the heavy fall of the implements
of toil—all those things gave exquisite
tone to the setting.
Paraguay Tea.
There comes from Paraguay to the
Journal of Tropical Medicine news of
in apparently harmless beverage which
is the sole stay and stimulant of the
working classes in Paraguay and the
Argentine Republic. It is often known
as Paraguay tea or mate, and an at
tempt made to Introduce It into this
country some years ago failed because
—as we may guess—there were more
potent competitors in the field. It Is
usually drunk as a hot infusion, through
g metal tube, but may be taken like tea,
with milk and sugar. Workmen take it
with them wherever they go and sip it
occasionally. Wood cutters will work
on It for five or six hours before break
fast, and the writer declares that, taken
at night, it makes nursing, study or what
doctors call "night work” real pleasure.
Analysis does not explain these results,
and lifelong and persistent use appears
to have no evil consequences. This
would be a good substitute for the num
berless patent medicines which supply
alcohol to women, or even, in at least
one familiar case, cocaine.—London
Chronicle.

A “SHOWtRPROOF" CLOTH.
Germans Treat Ordinary Materials
with Petroleum—Curious Aquatic
Displays In Tailors’ Windows.
It has usually been thought
that rubber was about the only
substance which would render
cloth waterproof, although oil ailk
ic coated with another one, a prep
aration of linseed oil. However,
"showerproof* cloth Is known as
that which repels water very
largely and yet remains porous^
appearing in all respects like of
diary wetable cloth. The methods
of treatment of sueh cloth are
often trade secrets, and even the
patent specifications do not di
vulge all that must be done to
•ohieve a satisfactory result.
"Petroleum,” a German period
ical, says that the oil to whleBt
that paper owes its name Is one of
the most successful showerproof
preparations. It says that the
only reliable shower proof is ob
tained by impregnating the cloth
outside and in with a fine film of
waxes. Paraffin wax is the staple,
but owing to its low melting point
it is not fit for nse alone. The com
position used is so alloyed with
other waxes and chemicals thatat
the boiling point of water the wax
stands firm. A rather elaborate
preparatory form must be gone
through, and after the wax has
been applied a finishing process la
required. The interesting fact re
mains that it is petroleum that
keeDfl ont the wet. Tn tailor** win
dows in Germany many aqnatie
displays have been arranged to
show that cloth can mysteriously
be made to exhibit the power of
the duck’s back. Wool, cotton,
silk, linen, velvets, braids, and
even sails, awnings and tent
cloths are thus wrapped in an in
visible film of rock oil.
PHYSICAL CONSCIOUSNESS.
The Brain In Car tain States #f Activ
ity Can Act on the Organic
Functions.
“Genesthesia” is the name given
to the general feeling we have of
the existence of our own bodies,
says the London Globe. This
sense of existence is chiefly owing
to accidental and local impres
sions awakening or stimulating
the sensibility, but it is completed
by a certain obverse conscious
ness of the exercise of the organic
functions, for example, respira
tion. It is by this sensation that
the spiritual Ego perceives itself
existing locally in the limited ex
tent of the organism. In perfect
health this feeling is continuous,
uniform, and equal, and therefore,
not special or local. In order to be
remarked a certain exaltation of
well-being or distinct uneasiness
Is required. In the hypnotic state
certain subjects have a more or
less distinct perception of their
Internal organs and can exert cer
tain notion over them. In fact,
Hipt crti mndif* at will all tho
function! of the “vegetative” life,
for instance, the beating of th*
heart. The fact shows that the
brain in certain states of activity
can act on the organic functions.
If there is a nervous current from
the brain to the organs there is
also, perhaps, a contrary current
from the organs to the brain. Dr.
Cromer, Liebault, and Others,
maintain that some hypnotic-sub
jects perceive their internal or
I gans, and even those of other per
| sons with whom they are in hyp
notic relations.
Immortelles.
The manufacture of immortelle
wreaths in Paris occupies at least
1,500 persons. The immortelles
are gathered about the beginning
of October, and come chiefly from
the arid hills in the middle and
south of France. They are
brought to the markets in their
natural condition, and the yellow
blossoms are dyed green, red and
white, and woven into wreaths by
special workmen in readiness for
All 8aints’ and All Souls’ days,
when all good Parisians visit their
relatives’ graves. On these “fetes
des morts” the gates of the ceme
teries are beset with crowds of
dealers in immortelle wreaths,
wire crosses and bead crowns.
At Pere la Chaise alone more than
200.000 persons are calculated to
visit the cemetery, and the sale of
Immortelle wreaths varies from
20.000 to 25,000.—Golden Penny.

FEAR OF GERMAN INVASION
Not Warranted by Number of Kaiser's
Subjects at Present Residing In
South America.
German migration to South
America, and especially to some
of the southern states of Brazil,
is periodically a cause of com
ment and concern to some who
think they see therein a sinister
scheme of imperial conquest.
For two or three strong reasons,
says the New York Tribune, such
fears seem to us to be not well
founded. One such reason is
that the number of Germans in
Brazil is not, after all, ominous
ly large. The total population of
Brazil, according to the census
of 1890, was 14,333,915. No later
census returns are available, but
careful estimates now place the
total at more than 17^000,000, of
which number less than 3,000,000
are Indians and negroes, leaving
certainly more than 14,000,000
whites. Of these, in 1901, only
2,700,000 were Immigrants, and
of the latter number only 300,000
were Germans.
The latest and highest esti
mate of the number of Germans
in Brazil is only 450,000, or a lit
tle over three per cent, of the
whole. Really, we cannot regard
that as a dangerous percentage.
Nor does it represent the largest
foreign element, by any means.
Portuguese immigrants into Bra
zil are twice as numerous, and
Italians three times as numer
ous, as the Germans. Nor yet
are these Germans so massed in
certain states as to form a ma
jority of their population, as
some have imagined. Germans
are most numerous in Rio
Grande do Sul, where there are
200,000 of them, but the whole
population of the state is 900,000,
so that the Germans are less
than one-fourth. In Santa Catha
rina the Germans are 100,000 in a
total of 300,000, or one-third,
the largest proportion in any
state. In Parana they are 47,000
in 280,000, and in Sao Paulo 30,
000 in 1,430,000.
It is pointed out as ominous
that these Germans continue to
use their own language, to pub
lish newspapers in German and
to demand the official use of that
language in courts and schools.
Well, the same may be said of
Germans in New York, and In
Milwaukee, and in many other
parts of the United States.
The conquest which Germany
hopes for in Brazil is not polit
ical, but commercial. The profit
she looks for in this migration of
her subjects is to be found in in
creased commerce. In that Ger
many reckons shrewdly. Every
shipload of Germans landed in
Brazil creates a demand for
many shiploads of German man
ufactured goods. Every so-called
German colony in Brazil means
a market for German trade.
Upon this feature of the case too
much stress cannot easily be laid.
Provisions from Trees.
There is a tree which grows in
Sumatra, Algeria and China which
is known as the vegetable tallow
tree. From its fruit large quanti
ties of oil and tallow are extract
ed, and the fruit is gathered in
November or December, when all
the leaves have fallen. Excellent
candles are made from the berries
of a tree which grows in some
parts of South Africa and the
Azores. At Sierra Leone is found
the cream fruit tree, the fruit of
which is very agreeable in taste.
In Ceylon there is the breadfruit
tree, from wThich a food is made in
the same way that we make bread.
Itissaidto be equally good and nu
tritious. In South America we
find the milk tree.—Philadelphia
Ledger.
Curious Incident.
A man on Twenty-third street
furnished much amusement to a
number of people on a recent
wrindy afternoon by a predicament
he fell into, or rather that fell
onto him. A large gunny sack
dropped from the roof of one of
the buildings, and, as it descend
ed, filled with air, coming down
with mouth wide open, like a bal
loon. It struck the unfortunate
man squarely over the head, cov
ering him completely down be
low the shoulders, and pinioning
hi* arms so that he had difficulty
in extricating himself. He strug
gled as if he thought he was being
kidnaped until he managed to get
the sack off his head.—N./Y. Poet.
Suffering
Will Not Help Your
Disease, but Will
Weaken Your
Nerves.
Folks who think it Is better to bear
pain than soothe it—are wrong.
Old-fashioned doctors used to say It
was better, because they had nothing
with which to ease pain but dangerous,
heart-paralyzing drugs.
But now, that a safe remedy has
been found. Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills,
it is wrong to suffer, for nothing can bo
gained but weakened nerves.
A safe rule to remember is: When
In pain, take an Anti-Pain Pill.
This will soothe your quivering nerves.
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills relieve pain
by restoring the natural secretions, in
which they differ from opium and sim
ilar narcotic drugs, which relieve pain
by checking the action of the glands.
They are sure and harmless, and are
the latest medical treatment for the
cure of Headache, Neuralgia, Backache,
Rheumatism, Dizziness, Toothache,
Stomachache, Menstrual (Monthly)
Pains. Also nerve irritations like Sea
Sickness, Car-Sickness, Sleeplessness,
Indigestion, etc.
Pleasant to take, quick In results.
*T have used Dr. Miles’ Antl-Pafn
Pills for sick, nervous headache, and
have received the best results. I hear

ties, for they are successful.”—REV.
