These forest scenes were one day

quaintanoe. 0ne of the two wes a
naturalist, the other a young physi.
clan, and both lately arrived from the
states. While collecting specimens of
vegetable growth and searching for
novel insects they were suddenly
startled by the cry of a wild animal.
They judged the creature to be about
two miles distant, and Immediately
started in pursuit. The doctor as
sured himself that all the chambers Of
his revolver were la order, while the
professor took the p%recaution to load
his gun with q charge Of coarser shot
than he had been using for birds, and
the march began. The cry was re.
peated at intervals, and az they drew
nearer they became more and more
cure 1t waa a feline voice and nerved
themselves for combat. But now they
heard a similar cry In another direc-
tion still nearer than before, and were
obliged to make Q detour to avoid
placing themselves between two packs.
They advanced with the utmost eau.
ton, and not a cracking twig nor q
rustlipg branch told of their approach,
while the difficulty of their progress
increased at.svery step. Coming up
with the game they found 1t to be not
q tapir, and to their Inf nite amuse-
ment they were serenaded by the
feline voices of frogs. The adven.
ture thus proved to be one of less
danger han had at one time seemed
probable. However, it was not Sc
ludicrous a blunder as 1t may seem to
the reader, for ven the frogs of some
foreign lands do not at all resemble
