Tic ArdonneS Dog.

The dog of the Ardennes accompanies
the flock when it leaves the penfold in
spring, only to return when the winters
snow drives the sheep home again for
shelter. Each shepherd possesses one or
two of these dogs, according to the size
of his flock, to act as sentinels. Their
Office is not to run about and bark, and
keep the sheep in order, but to protect
them from outside foes. When the
herdsman has gathered his flock in some
rich valley, these white, shaggy mon
sters crouch on the ground, apparently
half asleep; but now and then the great
sagacious eyes will open, and, passing
over the whole of their charge, remain
for while fixed on the distant horizon
as though they followed train of
thought which led them away from
earth-so sadly do they gaze into the
infinite.
But let the mountain breeze bear to
his nostril the scent of the hated wolf,
or his quick ear detect an unknown
noise, then is the time to see one of these
dogs in his glory. His eyes become
black with fierceness; his hair stands
erect; his upper lip becomes wrinkled,
showing range or Wnlte, formidable
teeth, while q low growl alone escapes
from his throat. When his keen facul-
ties have detected the whereabouts Of
his foe, he rushes forward with bound
that overleaps all obstacles, and bark
that echoes from all the surrounding
hills.
Every dog of the like breed who may
be near, takes up the note, and rushe:
cleaning through the brushwood &c
join in the attack. Tender as the child.
hood he protects, woe to him who dare
lift hand on one of the little ones with
whom he has been brought up. 1t is
not he who buys him is his master; it i;
he who fed him when pup, who pet,
ted and shared bis pittance with him
he it is who has his love, and who recip.
rocates his faithful Affection OcerlanC

The Travellers Tree,

This is the name given to d tree which
grows in Madagascar, so called because
the lower parts of its stems contain
pockets or receptacles, which in the
driest seasons are filed with pure water.
The weary traveller is sure to find re-
freshment by puncturing these pockets
with a spear. The botanical name of
the tree is Urania speciOsa.. From solid
trunk varying in hight from ten feet up
ward, and similar in appearance, though
not in nature, to that of the southern
palmetto, springs up a bunch of stems,
each about six or eight feet long, and
each supporting q leaf of the same length
and some ten or twenty inches wide.
The leaves, when dried, form the thatch
Of all the houses on the eastern side of
island, making a perfectly waterproof
covering, while the stems are used for
partitions and sides. The bark of the
tree is very hard, and, unlike that of
the palmetto, is easily stripped off from
the interior soft parts. For large houses
this bark is cut in pieces Of twenty or
thirty feet long and twelve to eighteen
inches wide, and the entire floor covered
with the same, as well joined as ordinary
timber. The green leaves are used by
traders in place of waterproof wrapping
paper for packages; by the women for
table cloths, and the heavy pieces cut
out of them for plates at meals, while
certain portions are even formed into
drinking vessels and spoons. But the
chief popularity of this remarkable tree
is that, while standing in the forest, the
stems always contain large quantity
of pure fresh water, of which travellers
and natives make use in the arid seasons,
when the wells and streams are dry. To
obtain it, o spear is driven few inches
deep in the thick end of the stalk, at its
functions with the trunk, and then
withdrawn, when the water flows out
abundantly. AS every one Of the twenty
thirty, forty, or more stalks can give
from pint to quart of water, large
amount is contained in each tree.
