An Ingenious Kind Of Bird.

One of the most interesting and COM
mon birds here Tin the Adirondack re-
gion, Northern New York; is q large
woodpecker that bores holes in the bark
of spruce and then plugs them up with
acorns and nuts of any kind. One piece
of wood taken from a tree of about eight
square inches, contains ten of these
plugs, so closely and tightly wedged in
that knife had to be used to force them
out. A fine specimen of this ingenious
work can be seen in the cabinet of the
Museum of Natural History, Central
Park. The piece of bark looks as if
wooden bullets had been fired at it and
just covered themselves. The general
impression seems to be that the birds
put them there and eat them in the win
ter or later, but squirrels, it would
seem, would have the best of it. We
have seen the birds picking at nuts or
acorns that had evidently been lodged
in the wood some time, and were i'm
pressed with the idea that they had
been placed there to collect grubs and
other live food that would work into
them, and then the woodpecker would
visit the trap he had set and reap the
reward. of his labOrs. The amount of
work q woodpecker does in making q
hole three inches deep can be imagined
when it is known that in some of the
pieces of wood bored ten or fifteen pecks
of their bills hardly make any impress
sion. How many thousand it would take
to finish the work mentioned, and the
consequent wear and tear of patience,
can be imagined.-New York Times.

The Romantic Story Of John Burnside.

The will of the late John Burnside, of
New Orleans, who left an estate valued
at S5, 900. 900, has finally been discover
ed. It bears date of 1857, and names
Oliver Bierne as residuary legatee. Be-
quests amounting to $500, 900 are made
to members of the firm of McStea &
Valve, and to various charitable institu-
tons in New Orleans. There seems to
be considerable of a romance connected
with Mr.. Burnside's history. A good
many years ago Andrew Bierne, an Irish
man, was the capitalist of the Greenbrier
region in Virginia. According to the
gossips, one afternoon as he was riding,
and had stopped to water his horse at q
little brrok, he found an infant boy,
carefully wrapped up, asleep on q bed
of rushes. Quite startled at the sight,
after riding around and hallooing half
an hour for the owners of the child,
night approaching, and wolves being
numerous in the forest, he took the child
and carried it to his house, where he
placed it under the care of his favorite
attendants, John and wife. The parents
never turned up, and in due time the boy
was named John Burnside-an name sug-
rested by the place where he was found
by the side of q burn or brook, q word

Ireland.
The boy grew well, and, in due time
became the supervising clerk of Mr..
Bierne's many stores. From his bust
ness exactitude and industry he was q
great favorite with Mr.. Bierne, but with
few others. He was taciturn, reserved,
and morose, even when . young man.
But his business habits and talents rec
commended him, and Mr.. Bierne estab-
ished him in New Orleans with his son,
Oliver Bierne, where his characteristics
remained as they were in early life. He
had no social feeling, no sympathy. no
public spirit, but was pre-emiDently sue
cessful in trade.
Whether this story be true or not, Mr..
Bierne never denied it. One thing is
certain, the deceased never conversed,
nor would permit any one to converse
with him, about his origin or birthplace.
One of his fellow clerks with Mr.. Bierne,
Andrew Mennis (brother of the late
Hon. Callohill Mennis, of Bedford Coun-
ty, VAL called on MIR. Burnside when
in the zenith of his mercantile glory in
New Orleans, was kindly received, but
happening to recur to the story of his
birth, and contrasting it with his great
success, Mr.. Burnside flew into rage,
jumped up from the table, and never
spoke to him afterward.
During the war Mr.. Burnside re-
NAMED in Louisiana, and when his great
caop of sugar was seized by Gen. Butler,
got it all back on the plea of being a
British subject:
The finding of the will gives color to
the story of his babyhood. 1t is thought
that there will be a big legal fight over
the will by persons claiming to be rela-
tives of Burnside.-Cor. NeW York Sun.

Bananas and flantalnS.

A pound of bananas contains more
nutriment than three pounds of meat or
many pounds of potatoes, while as a
food it is in every sense of the word far
superior to the best wheaton bread. Al
though it grows spontaneously through
out the Tropics, when cultivated its
yield is prodigious, for an acre of ground
planted with bananas will return, &C
cording to Humboldt, as much food ma
terial as thirty-three acres of wheat or
over 100 acres of potatoes. The banana,
then, is the bread of millions who could
not well subsist without it. In Brazil it
is the principal food of the laboring
classes, while it is no less priced in the
island of Cuba. Indeed, in the latter
country the sugar-planters grow Or
chards of it expressly for the consump-
ton of their slaves. Every day each
hand receives his ration of salt fish or
dried beef, as the case may be, and four
it should be called plantain, for until
lately there was no such word as banana
is divided into several varieties, all of
which are used for food. The platino
mauzanito is a small, delicate fruit,
neither longer nor stOuter than a lady's
forefnger. 1t is the most delicious and
priced of all the varieties of the PLAN
tain. Ell platino guinea, called by us
the banana. is probably more in demand
than any other kind. It is subdivided
into different varieties, the principal of
which are the yellow and purple bananas
we see for sale in our market; but the
latter is so little esteemed by the natives
of the Tropics that it is seldom eaten by
them. Ell platino grande-known to us
as simply the plantain- also subdi-
vided into varieties which are known by
their SAVIOR and their size. The kind
that reaches our market is almost ten
inches long, yet on the Isthmus of Da-
rien there are plantains that grow from
eighteen to twenty-five inches. They
are'never eaten raw, but are either boil
ed or roasted or are prepared as pre-
serves.

Clean Clothes for Hot Weather.

Of the various methods of keeping
cool in hot weather none are to be en-
tirely despised, unless it is that of drink
ing spirits. Better than almost any of
them, however, is the frequent chang
ing of underclOthing. So much moist
ure escapes in the form of perspiration
that the skin seems to have no time TO
dispose of anything else; but the truth
is that the perspiration carries with it a
great deal of waste matter that is not,
like most of the moisture, carried by
absorption through the various thick
nesses of clothing and into the sur
rounding air. This waste remains in
whatever fabric it first reaches, and it
soon accumulates to a degree that either
retards perspiratiOn or prevents its alb
sorption. Servants may grumble as the
family wash increases in hot weather,
or laundry bills may increase; but it is
cheaper to devote more money to both
than to spend q larger amount for
liquor or other tOnics to remove the
sense of oppression that always follows
obstructed perspiratlOn. The fire.
quency with which athletes, actors, ex-
perienced pedestrians and others who
exercise freely in warm weather change
their clothing would astonish many peo-
pie who imagine their own habits to be
extremely cleanly; but the changes
richly pay for themselves in comfort

thousand pounds to friend, but with
the condition that one-haf the sum
should be buried with him in his coffin.
The legatee took advice on this matter.
Where is the money nowa'' asked his
friend. "In the bank,". was the reply.

check for q thousand pounds and put it

A suit involving the immense amount
of two cents has been decided by Justice
Forney, of Hanover, York County, Pa.
The Hanover & Baltimore Turnpike
Company brought suit against Mr.. Levi
B. Miller, of Penn Township, for two
cents toll due for passing through the toll
gate south of Hanover. Mr.. Miller re-
fused payment because he was on his
way to attend q religious meeting at
Hoff's meeting house. At the hearing
it was admitted that he did pass through
the gate, and it was shown that he at
tended religious meeting. The Justice
decided that Mr.. Miller must prove that
he positively went there to worship, and
gave judgment against him for the two
cents and costs. Mr.. Miller will take
the case to a higher court and have the
principle decided. -PiHs6urgh Tsle'
