THE learned author of ''The De-
scent of Man" in noticing that the
animals often suffer from the diseas-
es that atllict ourselves, might have
added that, in some cases, they are
not free from our vices also. AccOr-
ding to a recent letter from Darfur,
in Africa, the monkeys of that re-
giOn are inOrdinately fond of Il kind
of beer made by the natives who
use the beverage to capture their
Simial poor relations. Having
placed quantities of the beer where
the monkeys can get at it, the ma
tiVes wait until their victims are in
various degrees of inebriatiOn, and
when they then mingle with them
the poor creatures are too much fud-
died to recognize the differences be-
tween negro and ape. When the
negro takes the hand of one of them
TO lead him off some other fond crea-
ture clings to the hand of the latter
one, another to his hand, and thus
a single negro may sometimes be
seen carrying off Il string of stag
gering monkeys. When secured
the beer is administered in decreaing
quantities, so that they may only
awaken to the sad results
of their spree.

 A California inventor has made machine for pressing and drying potatoes so that they will keep for years yet preserve their natural flavor. No chemicals are used in the opera tion of curing everything being done by a simple machine capable of pressing 600 bush els of potatoes in twenty-four hours. The machine not only presses the potatoes, but lays them on tray in concave from the hollow side down. After the pressure they are put into drying apparatus, where they remain for two hours, then ground into course meal resembling cracked rice. The first shipment of these preserved potatoes to Liverpool last year brought large profit. The average price of potatoes in San Fran cisco is about 25 cents bushel. Dried, they brought in England 45 shillings a hundred weight, or at the rate of $l.5O a bushel for green potatoes. This year preparation has been made for drying and shipping large quantities. It is said that there are sOO, GOO acres of uncultvated land on the western slope of the coast range near San Francisco especially adapted to potato growing. The logs and mist from the ocean supply sufici- ent moisture, and the soil yields bountifully. The only problem heretofore has been where to market the product.-ScSeatIfc Americdn
