The Singing tree" Of Queensland
IS luxurious shrub, pleasing to the
eye but dangerousFto the touch. II
grows from two or three inches to
ten or fifteen feet in height and
emits a disagreeable odor. Says a
traveller: Sometimes while shoot
ing turkeys in the scrubs, have en-
tirely forgotten the singing tree
till | was warned of it very close
proximity by its smell, and have of
ten found myself in IA little forest OF
them. | was only once stung and
that very lightly. Its effects are
curious: it leaves no mark but the
pain is maddening, and for months
afterward the wort when touched in
wet weather is tender. | have
seen men who treated ordinary pain
lightly, roll on the ground in agony
after being stung; and | have known
a horse SO completely mad after get
ting into a grove of these trees that
he rushed open mouthed at every
one who approached him and had to
be shot. Dogs, when stung, will
rush about whining plteously, Bit
ing pieces from the affected part"

The Jersey mosquito has long fur
nished excuse for wild flights of inn
agination, but he has never before
inspired anybody quite as thorough
ly and Overwhelmingly as he did the
captain of the British bark Emanuel
Swedenborg, who has made affidavit
in the ordinary sailor fashion, that
off Cape May, he sailed into a vast
army Of mosquitoes, ravenous from
their long flight, which took com
plete possession of the vessel and all
on board. In five minutes they had
drawn as much blood as ever an old
time doctor drew from a feyerish
patient,and within half an hour they
had succeeded in boring through the
captains thickest winter overcoat
81 was driven almost desperate" he
declares, land | climbed up the main
top, thinking to escape the ferocious
animals. You may know how glad
/ was when / found that they had
not got up so high. The first mate
called to me to know how it was |
told him to come up and to bring as
many of the men aloft as could be
spared. This he did, and there we
stayed all night. When supper time
came our Chinese cook went below
and filled a basket with cold vic
tuals, which we hoisted up to our
perches in the shrouds. The men
took hour.turns in going on deck
and managed the vessel. We slept
aloft, as we feared to venture on the
deck. At o'clock a stiff breeze
sprung up and the mosquitoes be-
gan leaving us. Many of them
stayed on the boat, however, until
we reached Delaware. At the break
water | attempted to send dispatch
to the consignees in Philadelphia,
but my hands were bitten SO badly
that | was unable to write, and |
had to get the telegraph operator to
pen the message.

The Luck of "a Broken
Corset.
New York Sun

Miss Creiger snapped q corset
steel at a picnic. Mr.. Barnes heard
it,aud begged to be allowed to make
her a pair that would not break.
She consented Being a skilful me-
chanic he invented and constructed
an improved kind, and she was for
three years supplied with them, at
the end Of which time they married.
The question has been before the
United States Supreme Court as to
whether the wearing Of the iuyen-
tion by Miss Creiger was such a
"public usage allowed 10y the inyen-
tor" as will prevent Barnes from
obtaining patent. The Co ut de
cided against Barnes, but Justics
Miller dissented. If the little
spring." he says: "inserted in sim
gle pair of corsets and used by only
one woman covered by her outer
clothing, and in a position withheld
from public observation, is a public
use Of that piece Of steel, | am at
loss to know The line between q
public and private use"
