MEXICAN SCENES.

The bodies are placed in adobe tombs to
keep them from the coyotes that infest this
region. Some of these tombs are already
almost completely demolished by these hun

move one found it as heavy as stone of the

come a parent until the age of thirty years,
and only six young are capable of being
produced during the parental period, which
appears to cease at ninety years of age, the
average duration of elephant life being pre-
sumed to be about a hundred years. But it
is most interesting, az well as important, in
view Of any speculation on the increase OF
species and on the question Of competition
among the races of animal life, to reflect
that given favorable conditions Of existence,
such as a sufficiency Of food, freedom from
disease and from the attack of enemies, the
elephant race, slow of increase as it is, would
come in few thousand years TO stock the
entire world with its huge representatives.
On the data afforded by the foregoing de-
tails of the age at which these animals pro.
duce young and of their parental period, il
is easy to calculate that in from seven hum

years nineteen million elephants would re-

HOW CALISAYA BARK is GATHERED.

The calisaya trees, said man who as
agent of New York drug manufacturer,
had lately visited Peru, "grow wild in the
mountains, where the other trees of the
forest protect them from the sun The bark
is gathered during the Summer that season,
however, being extended in practice from
May to November Careful judgment ought
10 be used in selecting trees just old enough,
but this isn't always done. The Indians are
greedy, and, in spite of supervision, will
strip an entire tree unfortunately. The
proper way, too, is to chop down the tree,
so that the stump will sprout, and, eventual
ly, produce a new tree but the lazy natives

way the source of supply has been greatly

white planters have gone into the cultivation
of the trees with system and considerable
success. 1t has been found that, by cover
ing the trees with moss, the requisite degree
Of moisture may be obtained. Thus one of
the conditions of dank forest is created. 1t
has also been discovered that wide strip
may be removed lengthwise from the trunk
every year without hurting the growth of
the tree, SO that regular and certain yield
may be depended on. The decorticated
portion, IL covered with moss, grows fresh

medicinal quality as before. ! know of no
reason why the trees might not be grown in

THE CouRTEsfEs OF TRAVEL.

II is common to say that, in losing the old
stagecoach we have lost that comfortable
sociability which once made travel so great o
charm. But we have lost something more
We have lost that humane instinct which
in the olden times, made all travellers con.
siderate of one another Travel-trdgdH /;

was work, and hard work, in the old days,
and out of the common strain and the com.

into pleasurable memories. But the Pull

riage, also, the first consideration comes
more and more, to be personal comfort, and
not mutual consideration. The grudging
answer, the reluctance to impart informa-

which increasingly disregards weakness and

sees now more frequently and unpleasantly

POETRY
MAKING LOVE mn rHE CHOIR.

She sat on the steps of the organ loft
just after the second hymn;
And through nave and choir to the cool gra,
spire
The sound rose faint and dim,
AS they settled themselves tn The church below
For the sermon that followed next,
And seated myself at the altos side
As the parson took his text
marked the tender flush OF ner cheek,
And the CLEAN OF her golden hair,
The snowy kerchief round her neck,
And her throat all white and bare;
throat so white that indeed it might
An anchorite entice;
And family heard the parsons word
As he preached OF Paradise.
My arm stole gently around her waist
Until our fingers met;
And fitting blush made the tender flush
OF her cheek grow deeper yet,
snowy and fair the hand beneath,
And brown the palm above,
And the brown closed softly over the white
As the parson spoke Of love.
All, who Is wise, when deep blue eyes
Meet his and look coyly down?
Who would but drink, nor care to think
or envy's jealous frown?
Twas but TO bend till felt her breath
Grow warm on my cheek, and then
Ny lips just softly touched her own
AS the parson said Amen.

THE COLD SUMMER OF 1861.

"a few warm days !" How eagerly all
classes looked for them in that memorable
cold time sixty-sx years ago. 1t was called
dry season. But little rain fell. The
wind blew steadily from the north, cold and
fierce. Mothers knit extra socks and nit
tens for their children in the spring, and
wood-piles, that usually disappeared during
the warm spell. in front of the houses, were
speedily built up again. Planting aud shiv-
sring were done together, and the farmers
who worked out their taxes on the country
roads, wore overcoats and mittens. In

not until the third day did they find him.

UPPERTOWN!

Our Uppertown people are making
things move in that locality. Ground
for their fine new Hotel was broke last
Wednesday, and the building is to be
put in order for occupancy just as soon
as workmen and money can do it.
The steam pile driver to be used in
the construction Of their new dock got
into position to commence work on
Thursday and work is to be pushed
ahead with all possible dispatch. The
new dock, or that portion of it to be
first done, will be twenty feet wide
and eight hundred feet long This
will afford ample room for immediate
use and will be made wider and more
capacious at some future time, possibly
this fall, more likely not before next
season.
Another commendable feature we
notice in our up the bay neighbors is,
they realize that two or three men
cannot hold all the real estate in the
place, and at the same time build up
city. They know that people are
not going to come in and fight for a
chance to improve and live upon
another mans property when they can
have no interest in it. Real estate in
Uppertown is FOR SALE to any man
who will improve it, and it viii be
sold on reasonable terms, and their
lots are large so that one is large
enough for any ordinary business or
residence. Messrs. Stafford & Conan,
the real leading spirits in the awaken
ing, are live, energetic business men,
and we wish them success in their
every undertaking. They will build
their hotel and dock By day labor,
and have secured Mr.. O. c. Hicks, of
River Falls, to superintend both jobs,
which is sufficient evidence that the
work will be we'll done.
