Blue-eyed cats are said by Darwin to be } always deaf; The tail of a beaver is a regular trowel, | and is used as such. The hog eats fewer plants than any other hero-feeding animal. Carnivorous animals seldom produce more tha’. two young at a birth. The flesh of the boa constrictor is eaten by the aborigines of Brazil. In many tropical countries the scorpion grows to the length of a foot. The eggs of the crocodile are scarcely larger than those of the oose. The strongest muscle ina monkey's body is found in his prehensile tail. Certain parts of the hippopotamus’ hide attain a thickness of two inches. The skin isthe only part of the human body that is not hardened by age. Moles can swim with great dexterity, their broad forepaws acting as paddles. The swordfish does not use its terrible weapon as a dagger, but as a flail. Students of nature have never been able to explain the chameleon’s change of color. The greatest velocity attained by a whale - hen struck by a harpoon is nine miles an ROUrP, Tusks of the mammoth have been found of a length of nine feet, measured along the curve. The whole body of a boa or other con- strictor is a perfect network of powerful muscles. The natural life of an elephant is said to be 120 years. It is greatly shortened by captivity. Some naturalists say that the whale was once a land animal that took to the water tor safety. Elephants annoyed by flies have often been known to break off a branch and use it as a fan, Oxen and sheep are believed by some stockmen to fatten better in company than when kept alone. The boues of very aged persons are said to have a greater proportion of lime than those of young pecple. The rhinoceros has a perfect passion for wallowing in the mud, and is usually cov- ered with a thick cont of it. The moleis an @cellent civil engineer. lie always secures his own safety by hav- ing several entrances to his dwelling. The lowest order of animal life ie found in the microscopic jellyfish. It is simply a minute drop of gelatinous mat- ter. Many birds have the trick of tumbling along on the ground ahead of a sports- man in order to draw him away from their nests. European marmots remain dormant during winter. Before becoming torpid they carefully cement the entrance to their dwelling. The onte? layers of the alligator's skin are said to contain a large percentage of silica, hence the hardness ofthe animal's hide. . Although on land a clumsy animal, the seal is wonderfully quiek in the water,and in a fair race can generally catch almost any fish. With both the alligator and the crocodile the tailis the most formidable weapon. One stroke may break the legs of the strongest man. It is said that the flesh on the fore-quar- ters of the beaver resembles that of land animals, while that on the hind-quarters has a fishy taste. It is believed by microscopists that the highest power. of their instruments have not yet revealed the most minute forms of animal life. The aye aye of Madagascar is remark- able chiefly for its eyes, which are larger‘ in proportion to its size, than those of any other creature, Voluntary muscles are almost always red; involuntary muscles are generally white, the most notable exception in the latter case being the heart. Snakes have the singular property of being able to elevate the head and remain without the slightest movement for many minutes at a time. A decapitated snail, kept in a moist place, will in a few weeks grow a new head, quite as serviceable and good look- ing as that which was taken away. Cats and several other animals have a false eyelid, which can be drawn over the eyeball, either to cleanse it or to protect it from too stronga light. The muscles of a pig’s snout are exceed- ingly powerful for their size, and thus enable the animal to turn up very hard ground with the utmost ease. A bat finds its way about without the assistance of its eyes. A blinded bat will avoid wires and obstructions as dexter- ously as though it could see perfectly. When falling, as out of a tree or down a steep declivity, bears will roll themselves into a close resemblance to a huge furry ball, and thus escape without injury. The mole is not blind, as many persons suppose. Itseye is hardly larger than a pinhead, and is carefully protected from dust and dirt by means of enclosing hairs. No parental care ever falls to the lot of asingle member of the insect tribe. In general the eggs of the insect are destined to be hatched long after the parents are dead. The elephant is commonly supposed to be a slow, clumsy anima), but, when ez- eited or frightened, can attain a speed of twenty miles an hour and can keep it up for half a day. The blessing of Palestine is a small falcon, or hawk, which destroys the field mice. Were the hawks exterminated the human population would be obliged to abandon the country. The common housefly is often literally deyoured by parasites, and it has been proved that these parasites are also infest- ed with minute creatures that threaten their destruction. In the mountains of Sweden, Norway and Lapland all vegetation would be de- strayed by the Norway rats were it not for the white foxes that make special game of the rodents. The horn of the rhinoceros does not grow from the bone, but is a mere excrescence of the skin, like the hair and nails. Itcan be separated from the skin by the use of a sharp knife. The chameleon’s eyes are situated in bony sockets projecting from the head. By this contrivance the animal can see in Sleigh Backs. A splendid lot of Woodwork «and American Hickory.

Were it noc tor the multitude of storks that throng to Egypt every winter, there would be no livingin the country, for after every inundation frogs appear in most in- credible numbers. The blood flows almost as freely through the bones as through the flesh of very young children, but as age comes on, the blood vessels in the bones are almost filled with matter. A curious partnership often exists be- tween the sea anemone and the hermit crab. The latter always has an anemone fastened to his shell, and when he changes his quarters he takes his anemone along, provided he can detach it from the old shell. ‘CHHONIC “CHILLINESS. _ The Remedy Seasieeet Is Outdoor Exer- cise at All Seasons, How some people suffer in winter! They are constantly having chills; a feeling of cold water trickling down the back or some local stagnation of blood, with alter ed nervous sensations, is experienced; the hands, feet, nose or ears are especially likely to give inconvenience. Such indi viduals can not get warm even in bed, and, as a consequence, often suffer from insomnia, for sleeplessness is often caused by cold feet. Many such conditions arise from the fear of taking outdoor exercise, because the weather is too cold. Hence the circulation is not kept going, and the blood, vitiated by the close, impure air of the house, has no chance offered it of being allowed to purify itself. The foul- est river or stream of water is rendered pure by exposure to the air as it comes along, and aftera run of a few miles be- comes fit for consumption. Why, then, will delicate people deny the stream of life an opportunity to purify itself as it courses through their veins? Here is the secret of how to. keep warm in winter—outdoor ex- ercise in pure air. Many individuals mistake the feeling of eold for “catarrh.”” But feeling cold and “taking a cold” are different things. A shiver from exposure to cold—indeed, a half-frozen condition—is not in itself likely to end in a so-called “cold,” so long as the exposure has been in the open air; but we hold that by breathing the impure air of badly ventilated rooms a chill may be very easily contracted that will end in a “cold.” In cold weather we distinctly recommend the ordinarily healthy man or woman to try the effect of outdoor exercise, especially when the feeling is strong that it is too cold to go out of doors. Exercise under such circumstances will usually act as a tonic to the whole frame and brace up the nervous system, the special function of which is to regulate the heat of the body, The skin should be freely exposed to the air befare dressing in the morning, and after the morning washing, or cold, tepid bath, rub the body into a glow with a coarse towel, and you will be very nearly cold and water proof. — Philadelphia Times. The Paths We Make. A footpath is the most human thing in inanimate nature. Even as the print of his thumb reveals the old offender to the detectives, so the path tells you the sort of feet that wore it. Like the human na- ture that ereated it, it starts out to go straight when strength and determination shape its course, and it goes crooked when weakness lays it out. Until you begin to study them you can have no notion of the differences of character that exist among foothpaths. One line of trodden earth seems to you the same as another. But look! Is the path you are walking on fairly straight from point to point, yet defected to avoid short rises and falls, and is it worn to grade’ That is, does it plow a deep way through little lumps and hil- locks something as a street is cut down to grade? If you see this path before you, you may be sure it is made by the heavy shuffle of workingmen'sfeet. A path that wavers from side to side, especially if the turns be from one bush to another, and that is only a light trail making an even line of wear over the inequalities of the ground— that isa path that children make. The path made by the business man—the man who is anxious to get to his work at one end of the day and anxious to get to his home at the other—is generally a good piece of engineering. This type of man makes more paths in this country than he does in any other. He carries his intelligence aud his energy into every act of life, and even in the half-unconscious business of making his own private trail he generally man ages to find the line of least resistance in getting from one point to another.— From “The Story of a Path,” by H. C. Bunner in Scribner's Magazine. Fore Vi ords for Christmas Givers, It can be stated on authority that no Christmas-keeping person will be inclined to dispute that the necessary elements of the Christmas spirit are peace and good will. It is essential to anyone’s Christmas comfort that he should have a fair measure of peace of mind. If his disquiet has a fiscal basis, he should call a meeting of himself and firmly resolve to procure a proper relation between his incomings and his outgoings at the cost of whatever sac- rifice of pomps and vanities may be neces- sary. He may not be able to do that actually in a day, or in a week, but he can plan and be can resolve, and if he has a tolerabiy firm mind he ought to be able to resolve with sufficient vigor to bring his spirit the necessary relief. To lose one’s enjoyment cf Christmas because one has epent too much money in a bad year is in- tolerable. To repent is good; to save and scrape and pinch is good if need be; to deny oneself even the happiness of making gifts is praiseworthy if the case is bad enough; but to worry and be miserable is to misuse the season. Come to terms with yourself, brother, betimes, and whatever the situation is get on top of it before Christmas. If it is not a fiscal difficulty, but something else; if your conscience pricks you for laziness, or for wasting yourtime, or for neglecting your family, or for flirting, or for reading too many newspapers, or for gossiping, or for drinking too many cocktails, or for whatever species of misbehavior you may last have fallen into, attend to its admoni- tions and stop its noise. Gain your Christ- mas peace of mind even if you have to seek it with some resolution.—The Point of View. She's a Spanker. The avenue of woman’s work is broad- ening with astonishing rapidity. Up in Maine an energetic woman is earning a portion of herdaily bread by spanking ber neighbor's bad children. She receives 30 cents for every spank- ing, and appears at & certain number of houses each Saturday. Being an ener- getic woman. she caiculates on giving as many as ten different spankings every Saturday.—New York World.
