Amoy is one of the great centres of the tea Industry. From the surrounding country come the Oolong, Congou and Pouchong that at one ilme were famous the world over. As late as 1865 the trade was endimous in plame and profit. As many as hundred million pounds have been exported in one year. The planters, brokers and exporters, however, became too greedy. The planter used less care upon the abrub; the broker mixed infestor with superior grades and the exporter shipped everything on which he could realize profit. One large consignment was seized and confiscated by the New York Board of Health. It consisted of the sweepings of a. tea-house mixed with dies, splinters, orduae, atetal fillage and decaying organic matter. Another canalgument, sent to London, was examined by a chemist who reported that it contained 20 per cent, of tea leaves and Bo per cent. of filth! Under such auspices the popularity of the Amoy leafvaslahed and the sales fill off in consequence. In 1890- the amount exported was about a million pounds. The golden goose waS no longer laying
In the past two years there has been a revival. The growers are more careful and the brokers mase coascientious. The demand for Amoy ina has lacreased from different parts of the world. It is possible that the movement will continue and that the old-time prosperity of Amoy tea will retum,
Amay is not only the beadquarters of this Indus ry, but it is the treaty port from which are shipped the celebrated teas of Formota. Over la that mignificent land the tea plant thrives as dres nowhere else and its leaves attain perfection which must be enjoyed rather than described. The output consists of Oolongs far Amrica's and Europeans, and Panchongs for Cestiale. The export passes the twenty-millios mark. The quilly varies to a marked degree, The refuse leaves which John Chinaman discards ate box d, sold for 13 to 15 cents pound and of course sent to the United States This makes the "Famous Nonesuch Blend with Every Pound of Which is Given Away a Handpainted Cup and Saucer." It is very popular in board- ing houses, church fairs, the Chiesgo Exposition, Blackwell's I land and oter philanthropic. institutions. It is gord when compared with some of the sky leaves of Ceylon, Japan and India. It is ad e mpared with all the other quallides of the Formosa jeal. Above this comes a series of grades costing from 20 cents to 35 cents a pound, walk, couding to the conscience of the grocer are retailed at from go cestu to $1. A higher class consists of "flavoring, teas," which are used by Eastern merchants to increase the flv ad value of poorer leaves, They inge
In price fom 40 cents to $1.20 a ponad and could be retailed priɓlably at an advance of 61 per cent. So far as I know they are rever found in the market. A limited. amount is exported every year from Amey to the United States. Nearly all of this is used by the Jabbers and wholesale grocers for blending, while a small quantity goes to the few who rea'ly know what good tea in,
These grades of tea should be the ones used by people ef good taste. They are so costlier than the poorer types, as the higher price is more than counterbalanced by the larger Amount of beverage they produce and the greater satisfaction yielded by their use. They are so rich in their aroma and essential olis that a single cup will fill a room with perfume and at the same time will give more relief to a fatigued body and mind than a gallon of common- er fluid. They are singularly irce from tacoin and other harsb-tasting elements and never produce Indigestion, dyspepsia or heartbaro, Any one can become a public benefactor by Introducing these teas into the markets of the great effen.
Above the flavoring tens are stil higher grades. The amount annually grown is smail, and what is more important, smaller than the demand. The prices range from $1.50 to $5 a pound. Nearly all of these precious leaves |

THE WINSOME WIDOW.
Do you see the woman?
I do see the woman.
Who is she?
Mrs. Somebody or other.
She seems to be a very attractive woman. That's what-m
She has admirers among men, hasn't she? Always.
Doesn't her husband object? 0, no.
No?
Not in the least.
Why not?
He's dead,
01 Ah! She's a widow ? Of course.
She appears to be quite gay and happy?
he is.
Doesn't she mourn the loss of her husband? Not now.
Not now? No; she has outgrown her grief, She did mourn him then? Certainly ; they most always do,
In sonow so trazaltory ?
Time is a great healer.
How long has she been a widow ? Thics years, or thereabouts.
Where are her widow's weeds we read about ? She pulled them up and threw them over the fence at the end of two years.
Is that the rule?
It is the custom.
Does that remove the sorrow ?
O, to; only the evidences of it ; the sorrow la usually gone before its signs are.
Not utterly gone?
No, but considerably mollified.
She doesn't forget her husband, does she? Assuredly not; she remembers him so pleasantly that the fe is kindly toward all of his
ex
Even if he were not a good husband to her? 'That doesn't seem to make much difference. New?
Hardly ever; unless she is well advanced in years.
How old is this widow ?.... About 30.
She's a young widow then?
Yes; if unmarried they would have called her an old maid; and her husband were living they would havo called her a middle-aged mar stoi woman.
Widowhood is a kind of a rejuvention, is it? Quite so.
Do you suppose she can ever love another man well enough to mary bim ?
Well, I should smil,
Dla women who love ance ever love again? Indeed they do,
But tradition and poetry hath it otherwisa ? That's all they know about it! Should they love again? Why shouldn't they
Are women's hearts to

Possibly; but what woman has done she can do again."
SCOTT'S Emulsion of Pure Cod Liver Oil with Hypophosphites, for Rickets, Marasmus and ait wasting disorders of children, is very remarkable fa its results. The rapidity with which children gsin dab and strength upon it is pery wonderful. Read the following: "I have tried cott's Emulsion' in cases of

The Chinese poets have carried the idea still farther, and in idle verses have sung the praises of various planeta and stars in influencing or benefiting the growth of the tender leaf. In fact, thère is a regular literature on the subject, the sage and singer of the extreme Orient having done for tea what their European couslos havè done for Bacchus, Gambrinus and John Barley.
