Only a short time ago I read of a woman who had won a suit la volvlng abont $20,000. New evidence, however, was brought forward, which caused the court immediately to reserve Jts decision. It was proved that tse lady had sworn falsely. She was per fectly Innocent of any such Intention, but she had sworn that she had never signed her Wine to a certain document. The document was. produced, and, to her utter astonishment, she saw her signature affixed to it She acknowl edged at once that the signature whs hers, although she had Just sworn that she had never signed the paper In que tion.

Yet of its actual produc tion he knows little. To skip, In spirit, from tho north east coast of South America across the south Atlantic to tropical Africa, the Congo, the Gold Coast, the Zambesi, Uganda and other parts, is not a dif ficult undertaking, nut Here all Is changed, and, Instead of having noble forest trees nt his dltiosal, tho rub borhunter finds himself dccndcnt on snaky, climbing, twisting vines for his rubber supplies, vines which usurp ev ery Inch of territory they can Invade, and render a passage through the for-, ests a matter or great ainieuuy ana some danger. These vines, known as "lnndolphlas," of which there are several species, are members of the natural order apocy- naces? and are common to the wholo of tropical Africa. They differ from the American trees, in that they pro duce rubber In the center of the stem, as well as from the cells underlying tbe Inner comblum, but what quantity each plant will produce there are no data to base an estimate upon. Although the landolphlas form the main source of the African rubber sup ply, yet there Is at least one family of trees which yields a supplementary contribution to the sum total. The funtumla or klckata, of which there are two species, elastlca and Afrlcanla, was worked to a considerable extent a quarter of a century ago, but lt does not now seem to be a fashionable plant to cultivate a close assoclationshlp with. It resembles the hevea to some degree, but Is smaller, of softer growth, and requires a little less rainfall to; luxuriate. xumiug to iiiuin, nuu to scurr ally, It will not be found that the con tinent is rich in indigenous rubber bearing plnnts. The flcus elastlca, the Indian rubber plant of the window gardener, Is found lu Ashoju and Bur ma and the federated Malay states, but Its produce Is of very Inferior quality. Certain climbers also yield rubber, the three chief ones being the urceola, chonemorpha, and the Willoughbla. The fact that Para and otlier rubbers are being cultivated In India, etc., Is sufficient proof of the poorness of the continent of Asia In Indigenous rubber- bearing plants. I Ceara rubber Is collected by stabbing the tree In a number of places close together, and as tho Juice exudes lt coagulates In tho air, and is rolled up Into balls by the collectors. It Is usually In a dirty state when It comes to the market. The product of the flcus elastlca and the otlier Asiatic plants Is usually sim ply sun-dried; the rubber from tho former can be identified at a glance by Its peculiar red color.
