Underwood
Standard
Typewriter
A LEADER
The principal of construction in the Underwood was
found first in the Underwood, and every typewriter seeking
business in the same field with the Underwood which
has been put on the market since the advent of the Under
wood, has been an imitation of, and in general appearance
like, the Underwood.
The last "Blind" advocates of importance have now
fallen into line, and there is not to-day a single "blind
writing" typewriter actively on this market. Recall all
the arguments you have heard in past years by Underwood
opposition, and you will realize what an advance agent of
progress the Underwood has been; then bear in mind that
the Underwood was the first fully "visible," has had tim
to develope and improve, and is to-day the most perfect
typewriter made.
"The Machine You Will Eventually Buy"
GATHERING RUBBER.
The Sap Is Coagulated by the Action
f Pungent Smote.
The Industry of collecting and pre
paring rubber-Is carried on extensively
in the valley of the Amazon. There are
districts of many square miles owned
and operated by one person. The rub
ber trees are scattered more or less
plentifully among other trees that
yield no profit as yet
When one has secured a large tract
of forest land for the Industry he puts
up a rough shelter upon it and en
gages Indian naUves of the neighbor
hood to aid him in the work. Early in
the morning they start out to make
the rounds of the estate, for they must
get back to the riverside before the
heat of the day becomes too great
They tap the trees, attach little tin
cups to catch the sap and take home
whatever sap may be collected.
The sap of the rubber tree is a white
liquid of the consistency of goat's milk.
It is necessary that it be converted
into a solid. This is effected by the
action of. a pungent smoke that coagu
lates or curdles the milky fluid. For
this use the seeds of two different
kinds of palm are employed. The seeds
are put in an earthen Jar which has a
narrow neck, the bottom of which is
perforated with a number of square
holes. In this the palm nuts are
burned. The holes in the bottom of the
Jar admit a draft and cause a dense
smoke to issue from the neck.
The operator takes a paddle similar
to that with which he paddles his ca
noe and holds the blade of it over the
Jar. Upon It he pours the milky Juice,
cup by cup, all the time turning the
blade so as to bring all parts of it into
the smoke. The fluid is instantly fixed
and adheres to the wood or to the rub
ber already formed. This process is
continued until a solid lump is formed
that will perhaps weigh sixteen
pounds. When the lump has grown
large enough for handling a slit is cut
in it and the blade Is drawn out A
mass of rubber is left ready for ex
portation. It is, the smoke used in
coagulating the sap that gives crude
rubber the dark appearance familiar to
every one.
Natives who collect rubber have, cu
riously enough, little use for the ar
ticle. They do, however, devise play
things for their children by pouring
the sap into clay molds of birds, fishes,
eta, and then crushing the clay and
removing it New York Press.
TrUlNING SEALS.
These Dexterous Animals Easfl
Taught to Perform Tricks.
"The cardinal principle in training
animals," says an animal trainer, "ii
not to attempt to make an animal de
anything contrary to the nature of Iti
particular species. To be successful a
trainer must know enough about th
habits of the animals he has undci
training to fit the tricks he would teach
them to their natural bent
"The seal Is very easily taught Ton
begin with one seal, some small pieces
of fish and a string. You let the seal
sit on his pedestal, something he likes
to do by nature; then you throw hliu
one of the pieces of fish, and he natu
rally and easily catches it Next you
tie a piece of fish on the end of yout
string and swing It toward the seal
He catches this, too, and you keep
moving away from him and swinging
the fish to him from an increasing dis
tance. Now yon are ready to begin
with the hat or cornucopia. You put a
piece of fish in the bottom of it and
toss it to the seal. The seal Is dex
terous by nature, and his nose, quickly
detecting the fish In the Up of th
cone, seeks it out The cone catches on
his snout and he bites out the fish ami
tosses the cone aside. Before long he
comes to associate the cone with fish,
and he will catch any number of sim
ilar ones and toss them aside when Ik
falls to find what he wants.
"Balancing the big rubber ball it
based on the same principle. The ball
is soaked In fishy brine and thrown tc
the seal. Ho gets the odor and tries
his best to get into the ball and find
what he Is after. This results In his
balancing the ball on his nose, a feat tc
which his supple neck and his natural
feeding habits are nil adapted, and
then he gets his piece of tish as a
prize." New York World.

The Scandinavian Eddas the Most Re
cent of the Seven.
The world has seven Bibles. The
are the Koran of the Mohammedans
the Eddas of the Scandinavians, the
Trlpltaka of the Buddhists, the Five
Kings of the Chinese, the Three Veda..
of the Hindus, the Zendavesta and
the Scriptures of the Christians.
The Koran Is not older than the sev
enth century of our era. It is a com
pound of quotations from the Old and
New Testaments, the Talmud and the
gospel of St Barnabas. The Eddas of
the Scandinavians were published In
the eleventh century and are the most
recent of these seven Bibles. The Bud
dhists Trlpltaka contain sublime mor
als and pure inspirations. Their au
thor lived and died In the seventh cen
tury before Christ.
The sacred writings of the Chinese
are called the Five Kings, "kin:;"
meaning web of cloth or the warp that
keeps the threads in their places. They
contain the choicest sayings of the
best ages on the ethicopolltical duties
of life. These sayings cannot be traced
to a period higher than the eleventh
century B. C. The Three Vedas are
the most ancient books of the Hindus,
and it Is the opinion of great scholars
that they ore older than the eleventh

age have passed to the hands of the
boys as toys. There are in our great
