Although our meana'of transportation and
preservation of articled of ( ( oed have been so
greatly advanced of late years , there are yet
many good things In other Tarta of the world
of which we know llttto or nothing.
If dwellers on thd Amazon should bo told
that very few people In the United States
over tasted or saw asSal ana that many of
them had never heard of It , they would
either refuse to bellevq anything so palpably
absurd or think of us with a mixture ot pity
and contempt. It would be much like telling
them that \vo have no knowledge of water
or air. ' ' " '
Though upper Brazll'his ( : .such a vast num
ber of serviceable vegetable products , assal
and farina are the most popular ot them all ,
and many people thercllvo on them alone.
Strangers 'seem to 1'lko ' filisal. , qven at first ,
as much as 'flittaUvcp , ( ld , arid rb'oYe than
ono rjngllsh , writer haR qpmpared Its tastu
to that of "filberts and'oream. " Taken either
without seasoning or sweetened comissucar ,
as the Brazilians say It Is extremely cheap
and easy to make , and poor. Indeed , or phe
nomenally lazy , must the Amazon bo who
does not regularly use It. Perhaps the rich ,
dark purple fruit of the assal palm , or some
preparation of It , could not bo brought to
us In Its best state ; but hermotlcal scaling
Is able to meet most difficulties of that sort ,
and the experiment Is surely worth making.
Wo tnko our cocoanuts and pineapples in a
condition that dwellers In the tropics would
scorn , for they think they are fit to be eaten
only when they have "tho constituency of
butter. Yet vvo go on Importing them con
tentedly , and so It might be In many other
cases.
Yerbn. mate , or Paraguay tea , Is as great
a favorite or , to bo moro exact , as nearly a
necessity of life In the moro southern parts
of South America , as aisal Is on the Amazon.
If Dr. Tanner did not really sustain llfo
during lila long fast with an Infusion of
mate paEfllng for water It Is not unlikely
that he might have done po. Mate has not
the advantage of a naturally agreeable taste ,
llko assal ; but this Is a defect that is com
mon to many stimulants and can bo remedied
with llttlo trouble , The South Americana
take eugar and imllk or lemon with tholr
mate Just as wo do with our tea. Their
custom of sucking It , scalding hot , through
bulb-headed tubes Inserted jnia common bowl
Is not likely to meet our vloiva an to what is
pleasant and becoming , but as that fashion
Is not essential to its use or enjoyment , there
would bs no need of adopting it.
Chemically , It la very similar to coffee nnd
tea , and , though less nutritive than choco
late , It might make a good substitute for any
or all of them. As coffee grow * plentifully
and tea Ifl hard to get In the countries where
mate la universally used , it must have quali
ties that make It , to some extent , preferable
to either of them. The Argentinian gaucho
undoubtedly thinks It Is" , for ho would rather
slvo up anything else than his mate. To
these cowboys of the pampas the only thfngd
necessary for subsistence are dried beef
( chtirn.nl ) and mate.
In ono respect Its superiority to Chinese
tea Is unqum'tlonanle , and that Is its greater
Immunity from Injury by air or dampness.
Llko "the cup that cheers but not Inebriates , "
It has great reiterative power , and the- Indi
cations are that In this respect it surpasses
its better-known rival. Mate leaves could be
brought to ua as easily as those of the
Chinese tea plant , and with much less risk
of deterioration on the way. It fs not cer
tain , however , that the 'plant ' Itself which
Is merely a species of holly could not be
made to grow In some payM of our own land ,
for its natural habitat l&tn.9i , very unlike our
southern country in ltuen climate or soil.
Late experiments have ulmwii that the bam
boo will grow as well In1 'Florida and Louisi
ana as In any part of'th'e ' tropics , and the
Chinese sugar cano lia lb'nf ; been cultivated
successfully In parts q ( Mr country where
the winter Is re-ally eoromji
There are many otlicfr valuable South
American products which'1 are moro unfa

the Orinoco are hardly lew , rich In that re
spect than these near ihelrAmazon , and tha
little-known Interior of Venezuela is said to
contain plants with m dltHial properties as
beneficial as those of tbo ! l'2ruvlan cinchona.
No doubt the simo KQuqrMi statement maybe

Other little explored regioni'of the old world ;

thu Conductor.
The passengers oil a crowded cable car
the other day were Immensely "tickled" at
the discomfiture of a conductor , who was both
rude and disobliging- was cleverly cir
cumvented , says the New Yorlc Commercial
Advertiser.
The conductor handed C pennies In change
to a well-dressed woman. She requested that
a nickel bo given to her Initcad , as she had
no purse and the pennies would probably bo
lost. Uentlo as was they request , It Irritated
( ho conductor and he said : "No , I have to
take pennies , and you can do tbo same , They
Mil buy just as much as a nickel. " The
woman remained silent aud the conductor
proceeded down the car ,
At that moment a man who was about to
nay his fare touched tbo lady'a arm and
tianded her a nickel , taking In exchange the
pennies , which bo immediately gave to the
conductor , It was all done quietly aud
quickly , yet many gaw the play , and all who

I THREE SCENES : POSTSCRIPT
BY GEOKGE GRAHAM ELY.
New York Post ,
"Tho fnct Is , " said my young friend Theo
dore Hllllard , Jr. , tipping back his chair ar
gumontatlvoly , "I believe that the long novel
hna had Its day. In the first place , I don't
think that't > the way to portray lite. "
"And yet It la the common supposition ol
a misguided public that that Is the novel's
precise mission , " I HUggeeted , without en
thusiasm , for the subject did not exclto me.
"Tho common supposition Is a ready-made
nrtlclo not always to bo taken without In
vestigation , " returned Hllllard cheerfully.
"I hold that the short story IB to literature
what the snapshot Is to photography. Either ,
nt tlio hamla ot a man with a seeing eye ,
gives a gllmpso of something definite , strate
gic , living ; something that Impresses you
by Us vividness and by the force of Its
ncluallty. "
"Impresslvencna and force arc good enough
In their way , " I conceded , leaning back com
fortably , and taking In with a satisfied glance
the effect of harmony and beauty for which
Hllliard's rooms nro noted , oven In a house
abounding In elegant and luxurious apart
ments ; "but tboro are other considerations
sometimes , you know. Character-drawing
and the narration of Incident , for example ,
wo are not qulto willing to part with In our
fiction. "
Hllllard laughed. "I must be very un
fortunate In my endeavor to explain my
self , " he said good-temporedly ; "these arc
exactly the things that I claim can be done
best through the medium of the short sketch.
Throwing asldo the extended Intricacy of
plot that rarely belongs to life ns wo see It ,
where can jou find In the world of fact or
fancy a llfo that can't bo adequately pre
sented In two or three scenes ? Look nt your
own existence ; In a sweeping glance doubt
less almost all Its multitudinous Incidents
and oventa rccedo Into a hazy If not obacuro
background , and you have a distinct Im
pression of but two or three more or less
vivid hours , standing out from all the rest.
To tell those would bo to tell all that Is of
artistic value to your history ; If they were
told well , your Individuality , your personal
ity , at the different chosen points ot develop
ment , ought to be forcefully evident. They
are the mountain peaks ; they should cast
their own shadows , unaldeil. As for the
reader. If he lan't able to fill In the details
of the valloy-llno of growth between these
different levels. , ho Isn't the kind to be
catered to. Uut for that matter , who Is
really Interested In the Intervals ? What all
men care about Is life , living , the evolution
of that most mysterious and potent force In
the universe , the human soul ; aud a word be
yond what Is absolutely essential Is a
literary offense. "
"Well , " I said , rising , for I felt that my
friend might as well be headed off at thla
point ns nt any other , "I'm fortunately not a
novelist myself , so If you should accidentally
convincemo of anything In this line It
wouldn't make a. radical change In the
world's history. I , for my part , prefer the
short tale for the same reason , I'm Inclined
to think , the other fellow does the kodak
because It Is less trouble than setting up the
timo-cxpoauro tflpod. But , to agree with an
eminent authority on all. matters of dlscua-
slon , doubtless there's a good deal to bo said
on both sides. "
"I wish , " said Hllllard , paying , ns usual ,
no attention to my Instructive remarks , but
opening a rather orderly desk and pulljng
out a pile of freshly written manuscript ,
"that you'd take this homo and glance It
through when you have time ; I wrote It In
Illustration ot what I've been saying to you.
Not long ago there came- Into my possession
an unusually full and complete record of the
events of a certain life. It was a life that
appealed to mo strongly , and none of the
matter of the record Is on the order of trash.
Uut It seemed to me that In three alight
scenes the whole life and the main personal
characteristics might bo suflldently sug
gested. I have Indicated this minimum
amount hf > re my part has been only that of
selection , you understand , and of course the
supplying of details and I wish you would
tell me , after you've read It , whether I am
right ; whether you get any sort of com
pleted whole from these three briefly told
Incidents. "
"I confess to a greater readiness to read It ,
since you cssuro mo It Is short , than I should
feel were It the novel you decry , thua far
corroborating your opinion , " I said , smiling.
"And by the way , " added my friend , again
with only a passing half-smllo In acknow
ledgment of this compliment , as ho tuincd
absently to his desk and scribbled a. few
words on a scrap of paper , which ho then
handed to me :
"You might as well read this slip after
wards after you've read the article , you
know. It really doesn't concern the litera
ture ot the thing , but it will do no harm.
It simply answers a question which may
occur to you , possibly. "
At my own rooms , a few- evenings later , I
casually took up Hllllard's manuscript and
read It , bearing his thoughts In mind :
SCENE I.
They were three light-hearted comrades sit
ting out-of-doors in the June sunshine , the
two girls In a hammock , and the boy on a
bench opposite them. They were young ; at
that tlmo before twenty when people think ;
a fact which they Invariably fall to remem
ber In later days when dealing with young
persons of the next generation.
"I envy that fellow his chance , " the boy
was saying "It doesn't come to every ono ,
the opportunity of giving one's llfo up for
another , llko that , and proving one's
mottle. "
"Indeed It was glorious , " assented ono of
the girls ; "but you know , Theodore , that ono
can provo one's self heroic quite as well by
the little , dally acts of one's life "
"I have often wondered , " Interrupted Syl
via Wayne , with her chin propped upon her
hand , Ignoring the preceding remarks , "how
I'd act If such a chance ever came to mo
llko the one you were telling us about ,
Teddy , of the flro at sea. I'm not a bit sure
I should glvo up my place In the lifeboat to
some one else ! "
"Why , Sylvia ! " came from both listeners
In remonstrance ; and Emily added : ' You
would bo the very first ono to stand aside
and bo generous. "
The girl shook her head slowly and ao-
rlously studied the distant landscape ,
"No , I'm not speaking to ba contra
dicted , " lie wont on ; "I think It la a
thing ono can never know until the crucial
tlmo comes. Naturally , wo all admlro the
ono who is noble and self-sacrificing , and
wo all feel that of course wo should meet
any crisis llko heroes ; but when I think
ot It of this case ot a flro at sea , foi >
Instance of the first fright , then the real
terror , tha despair , the look of the water ,
the knowledge that In the llfebcft Is
possible safety , and out of It Is everything
that Is repugnant and terrible I wonder and
wonder whether I'd meet my moment nobly
or Ignomlnlously. "
"Hut death , Sylvia , what Is It ? Not a
thing to fear so much ; so trifling when
weighed against honor and heroism and great
ness. "
"Well. " repMed Sylvia , smiling , "death
doesn't seem so llttlo a thing to mo , Teddy.
The fact that It takes you away from this
world of Etinslilno and winds and birds aud
friends and and Just living m'akca It a very
serious thought , to my mind , for I love- all
thla ! " she said , with a vigorous , sweeping
motion of the arm , which Included all the
aunllt tract before her. "Uut that Isn't my
point , " she added ; "I suppose I could reason
myself Into choosing death Instead of life , or
doing the hard thing Instead of the easy , If
It were just a matter ot intellectual decision ,
but , you see , when the great mom en In como
thero'a all the midden physical tour and
horror , and I'm afraid that these might
count for more , at that Instant , than my
whole lifetime of reasoning about duty and
courage. Somehow I've always sympathized
with Savonarola for yielding to the awful
strcfrt of his suffering , for I have almost a
conviction that I should do exactly the sarno
thing mKef ! , "
"To me , " said Emily calmly , going back
to the original proposition , "It seems the
slmplfst , easiest thing In the world to make
the noble , bravo choice at any such critical
time. " <
"They say that what wo do at supreme
moments , " Theodore suggested , thoughtfully
stripping the leaves from a green twig In
hl hand , "Is the cumulative result of a life
time of habit , I rather hope you'll have a
chance come day to prove your fears about
yourself groundless , Sylvia. "
" 1 do , too , for I should really llko to kncrr
what I should do , " the girl Bald with a brlcut
smile. "Do you know , I have a theory that
there conies a moment In the llfo of each one
of ushcn tbo stuff vvo are made ot Is
tested ? And It always braces me up to
think of It ; not because I'm at all certain
as to how I should use my moment , you
know , but 1 think It Is Ini a way glorious to
feel that wo are worth so much ; that vvo
specks crawling at the bottom of this ether
are permitted to como face to face with
supreme temptations , and that It Is In us
once In a while * to face them sublimely. "
"Not half bad. Sylvia. " said the boy ,
laughing , with a llttlo not ! of approval. "It
Is rather llko trees ; whether they go up or
down or eldowlso Is decided at sotno one
critical point. So ' '
your 'moments' are not
only tests , but prophecies. "
"I'm sum 1 don't see what trees have lo
do with It , " said Emily , rising ; "and It
wo are going to rldo lo Uoxbury this after
noon wo would better bo getting Into our
habits. " '
SCENE II.
. "All the world's a stage , " and the principal
difference between Its performances and
these of the playhouse Is that In llfo the
walla are longer between the acts.
Klvo yours have made the youth n man ,
and the girl to whom ho gave his boyish
liking an earnest young enthusiast In the
first glory of womanhood. They walked
along slilo by side through the upland
pasture ; the sun had gone under , and the
strong , damp wind , which they had to
face and oppose , brought the bright color" to
their checks nnd beat Insistently against
the girl's capo and the long ends ot the
scarf which covered her head. The two
walked with the glad , buoyant step that
Indicates "tho wild Joy of living ; " a Joy
that conies from nothing else so surely ns
fronv a vigorous walk across a moor against
a buffeting , salt-laden wind.
"You 820 , Teddy , " Sylvia was saying ,
"It I simply had to marry some one , and
let all my ambitions and aspirations go , of
course you are the only one I'd think
of. I dare say you have discrimination
enough to know that yourself. Hut , " she
added , raising her head and giving It a
quick , characteristic shake , as she turned
her bright face towards him , " ( hat case
Is not supposablo. I've never Intended to
marry , and you have always known It
haven't you ? " she added , with an effort at
Judicial fairness that the young man
might have found amusing at any other
tlmo.
"You have always said you Intended to
devote yourself to your work , " he admitted ;
"but a girl Isn't usually considered to bo on
oath In all BIO says ; and we have always
been such friends , such comrades , Sylvia ! "
"That Is Just It ! " Interrupted his com
panion. "Wo have always been such under
standing friends that I thought you knew mo
better than you seem to have dono. If slrls
usually say one thing and mean another , then
you ought to have known that In that re
spect I was unlike them. I would rather bo
sincere than bo anything else In the world ,
nnd the last thing that I should bo un
truthful about would be a subject so grave
as that of marriage. "
"Then you do admit that It Is somewhat
serious subject ? "
"What more so ? It In the question ot a
llfo destiny. It Is therefore of exactly the
same Importance as the subject of my pro
fession. I rejected the thought ot marrlago
years ago , when I began to study medicine.
T have never regretted It , and I never shall.
I am all ready now to begin my work , and I
ain eager for It , and so glad about It , Teddy !
It Is a. great thing to be young and well and
strong , nnd to have a whole world of op
portunity for usefulness opening up before
ono. There can't bo anything else In llfo so
much to bo desired as the privilege of being
useful ! "
Her companion looked at her glowing face
and perhaps the man's natural answer was
on his lips , but ho was wise , though a lover ,
and knew the futility of argument.
"I suppose , " he said , putting out ot sight
for the tlmo his own heavy disappointment ,
In generous effort not to oppress her with
It , "I suppose you are sorry for me.rfiylvla ,
nnd wish this had never happened ? " and ho
gave her a half smllo which she did not
rotuin.
"I am sorry for you now , Teddy , " she re
turned , seriously , "but , after all , this can't
bo everything to you. You have your own
work. Just as I have mine , and In that you
can bo happy , at first. Dy and by you will
forget and will marry eome ono else. I
know it sounds cruel for mo to say it , but
It will bo so. As for wishing this had never
happened , I do , on some accounts. On others.
I am very proud that It has happened , anil
I thank you moro than I know how to tell
you. " She stopped , as they emerged on the
high road , and held out her hand to him with
a frank , sweet smile. Ho took the hand
gravely and retained It for a moment , lookIng -
Ing down nt It while ho spoke.
"I can never care for any ono else as I defer
for you , " ho said , slowly , "for you have been
a part of all the dreams of my life. Your
answer is surely final , Sylvia ? "
"It Is surely final , Teddy. "
"Then I will not bo ungenerous to my
rival , " ho said. "I wish you Joy and success
In your work. And you may have the knowledge -
edge It It will bo anything to you that It
has done mo good to know and love you ,
dear. "
Thus they parted.
SCENE III.
Another pause of years , and when the cur
tain rose again Slyvla Wayne was a woman
of thirty , and the gaslight was llluml-
nating every corner of her largo end well-
equipped study. Only prosperity could have
given the Indefinable air of elegance to all
the appointments of the room and to the
dress and bearing of Us occupant. Uut only
n sudden , crushing sorrow could have thua
bowed her head upon her nrma before the
professional-looking desk nnd brought about
a despairing abandonment to grief , the
more striking because so alien to her na
ture.
ture.While she sat , In this nttltudo , In the
pleasant room so silent In Its brightness ,
n stiff paper fluttered from her hand to the
floor nnd lay nt her feet. It bore the an
nouncement of a marriage thnt had tnkrn
place the day before , the marriage of the
man to whom she had Riven her "final"
answer on the hillside nrnr her homo , hun
dreds of miles , ages of time , away. Slnco
then , success , good cheer ; ambition satisfied ,
usefulness In plnnty ; n city practice , a
host of friends nnd admirers , n noble nnd
dominating purpose crowned ; and under
neath U nil the late but Imperious awaken
ing of a woman's heart. Then the glowing
conviction of the emptiness of her largo
nnd "useful" life ; the longing , the uufor-
mutated hope ; ' now , this !
The flro burned brightly nnd silently on
the hearth ; the stlllnoEU was unbroken. At
length she raised her head. In those few
minutes her face had changed eo much thnt
It pcemed scarcely to belong to the name
woman whoso personality had Impressed
Itself In brightness upon everything about
her.
her."For myself , It Is all over. " siio whis
pered ; "but there Is t'tlll my father. Ho Is
proud of mo nud loves me for his
sake "
A soft knock at the door nnd n maid en-
tcrcil , carrying n llttlo silver trny.
"Hero nro letters for you , Dr. Wayne. "
she paid , nnd withdrew.
For a long time the lonely occupnut of thn
great room sat burled In deep and sorrowful
thought ; everyday life seemed too difficult
nnd too farnwny a thing to bo taken up
ngnln Immediately.
Uut finally , with n xlreary gesture , oho
took up and opened mechanically ono of tha
two envelopes which had been laid bcforo
her. It was n letter from her father , who
liad gene to a distant laud In search of the
health which at homo had failed. Sylvia
Wnyno read like one who hns entered a
chamber of horrors , yet only half compre
hends. It wao a confession ; his llfo wn
nearly spent , and ho could not die without
ridding hmerit ( of hl burden , the bunion
that had broken him down In health ami
sent him away on his long Journey that ho
might not see his daughter's sincere and
trusting eyes. He was a guilty , dishonor
able man ; In his position of trust ho had
taken what had not been his ; ho had been ,
ho was , no better than the commonest thief.
When ho died It would be soon ho would
leave a memory of dishonor for his daugh
ter and a debt that could never bn paid.
The other loiter , written n few days later ,
was from her father's agent. In Calcutta ,
giving the particulars of the lattor's death.
It spoke of a cable message which ho hart
sent her , and which she had not received ;
It told of the disposition which had been
made of her father's few effects.
Far Into the night sat the stricken woman ,
a few hours before so young and buoyant
and full of hope , gazing straight before her
Into the dying embers of the flro. Her
hands lay clasped In her lap ; her face was
llko a mask of stone , and her eye-i wer
devoid of expression of any kind whatever ,
whether of sorrow or suffering or oven de
spair. There Is a point beyond which on
ceases to cry out , and the bodily frame rec
ognizes Its Inadequacy to express the nn-
gulsh of the spirit. A tiny clock at the
other end of the room gave the stroke ot
1. which fell with startling distinctness upon
the surprised silence.
Then Sylvia turned , with a strange and
marked calmness , to her desk. From a care
fully selected phial she took a number of
small tablets and , dropping them ono by ono
into a curiously shaped goblet half full ot
water , held It up between hen. eyes and the
light with unshaklng hand and watched the
opaqua whiteness dissolve. Then she walked
to the mantel before the grate , with the
glass In her hand , and stood there looking
don n , once more , Into the heart of the few
remaining embers. Finally , with a sad llttlo
smile , she raised the gol/let to her lips nnd
held It there for an Instant then , suddenly ,
with the old-time characteristic shake of her
bright head , she Inverted the glass so that
Us contents hissed upon the hearth. She stood
ui ] straight and lifted her eyes and her fnco
was Illumined by * tha light of a beautiful
courage and resolve.
"No , I will live ! " she said , In a clear ,
resonant voice. "To pay this debt ot his , to
clear his name. For honor's sake ! "
Thus , unheralded , unrecognized , came and
passed the ono sublime moment of her llfo ,
and her early question was answered.
The penciled words on the scrap of paper
Hllliard had given mo were lliefe :
"The reason I have been permitted to know
so Intimately some of Hin details of Sylvia
Wayne's llfo Is that she afterwards became
my stepmother ! "
