A Monster OF the Southwest.
AN ARIZONA REPTILE ABOUT WHICH
THE Widest TALES ARE TOLD.

The lizard family attains great perfec-
ton in the Southwest, slimaxing in the
horrible creature called the ella monster
Of Arizona. This is \ big black lizard
from a foot to four feet in length. He has
q pair of villainous. bead-like eyes in his
head beneath = couple Of horny eyebrows
that give his face an uncommonly fero-
cious expression. Around his neck is .
broad band Of beautiful yellow. and am
convinced that should recently imported
Irishman run afoul Of one of these YER
min he would consider himself in the
presence of the devil himself. wearing
the colors of the Prince of Orange.
The Arizona prospectors tell the wild
est tales about the poisonous qualities OF
the ella monster, some even claiming that
the reptile kills its prey by breathing on
it. Its poison is contained in minute cells
at the base of a number of like teeth.
Though naturally sluggish brute. it at
times exhibits the most frightful quick
ness. darting like . flash upon its prey
and seizing the same between its Jaws,
which it shuts and keeps closed with the
strength and tenacity of swapping turtle.
Meanwhile the poison slowly exudes and
penetrates the wounds made BY the teeth,
and if the victim be An animal of lesser
degree than . man faintness and death
speedily ensue. The poison differs from
that Of every known vensmous snake in
being an alkAli, while that Of ssrpsnts is
acid. 1t acts directly on the heart and
brain without local effects of . serious na.

The Tenacity of Women.
SOME STATIsrICs REGARDING TIE RELATIVE
LENoTa OF LIFs OF THE Two SExRs

LENGTh OF LIFE OF The Two SEXk9-
1t appears from the gathered statistics Of
the world that women have . greater tenaci-
ty than men. Despite the intellectual and
physical stre1gth of the latter. the softer sex
indures longest. and will bear pain to which
q strong man succumbs. Zvmotic diseases
are more fatal to males, and more male
children die than female. Deverga asserts
that the proportion dying suddenly is about
100 women to $50 men; 1880 men in the
United States in 1870 committed suicide to
2S5 women. Intemperance. apoplexy, govt,
hydrocephalalus, affections of the heart or
liver, scrofula, paralysis. are far moro fatal
to males thaa females. Pulmonary consump-
ton. on the other hand. 10 more deadly to
the latter
Females 10 citiss are more prone to con-
sumption than in the country. All old
countries. not disturbed BY emigration. have
majority of females in the population. In
royal families the statistics show mere
daughters than sons. The Hebrew woman
10 exceptionally long lived; the cslored
man exceptionally short lived. The married
state il favorable to prslongation Of life
among women. DR.. Hough remarks that
there are from to s per cent more males
born than females. vet there are more than
6 per cent excess of females in the living
population From which statistics We con-
clude that all women who can possibly OBJ
tain one of those rapidly departing men
ought to marry, and that, - men are likely
TO become so very scarce. they cannot be
sufficiently priced by the other sex-kodern

Old.Fashioned Cooking.

None of the modern coIvenienees Of the
kitchen can scarcely reconcile rs to the
loss of the cheerful blaze of eur open ire.
And in one thing certainly We are losers
The draught of the kitchen chimney was
essentially heathful 1t il well kswn that
the air of room. heated by the open fire ID
purer than that of those in which closed
stoves are used In hospitals in mAsy
cite. fires are kept all the year round in
wide chimney corners tor this express
uurpo.e. and there is no doubt much of
the odor of cooking that pervadss cur
homes is intensified BY. If pot owing to,
the use Of the kitchener. And, moreover,
however satisfactory the baking arran ge-
ments may be, there is, after all. nothing
equal to roast meat. Both joint. and poul-
try cooked in font Of the fire are better
and more wholesome than those roasted
in an oven Probably. from hygenlc
standpoint. we should be the gamers If the
only cooking utensils We possessed for the
preparation of meat were gridiron and
