TIES.

really think that this wonderful
woman has a screw loose some
where in her mental organization
she is not mad nor even cracked,
but she is what the French call
"tOQuee," convenient word fol
which the English language affords
no equivalent. Her recklesspees in
money matters is phenom nal. When
she was abJut to start for Amerlca
she wrote to a brilliant French
author; GAIL my expenses and those

Her friend wrote back in answer

will give her steward $40 at q time.
Two days later he will come to her
for more money. "Why, did L not
give you some the other day 2" she
will say, vaguely. Call gone, is it i?
Wen, here is $50; only take care OF
it,"
Her cook Dever knows how many
people are to be pre- sent at breakfast
or at dinner. for Sarah thinks moth
ing of inviting in an extra dozen or
so Of guests. She will put on new
pair of boots, go out to walk, get
caught in a shower, and toss her
desecrated bottines as g present to

off. She never payz bill without
legal pressure. is laVishly generous to

eccentric in private life as she is
great upon the stage. She has made
and aquandered three fortunes, is
always dying and never dice, is as
fragile ss reed, yet tires out the
strongest men in her troupe when
she goes upon professional tour.
This latter popularity Is owing to
her exceptional power of sleeping

FeeD FROM A POISONOUS RsOT.

I may here mention popularity
Of another form of nearly pure
starch food, viz, tapioca, which is
obtained by pulping and washing
out the starch granules Of the root
of the naGnihot, then heating the
washed starch in pans and stirring
it while hot with iron or wooden
paddles. This cooks anu breaks up
the granules and agglutinates the
starch into nodules which, as Mr..
James Collins explains (.'Journal OF
Society of Arts" March IA, 1854,
are thereby coated with dextrin, to
which gummy coating some of the
peculiarities Of tapioca- pudding are
attributable. 1t is q curious fact
that this manihOt-r0ot, from which
our harmless tapi0ca is obtained
is terribly poisonous. The plant is
one OF the large family of nauseous
spurgeworts Gu phorbiGceG). The
poison resides in the milky juice
surrounding the starch grsnules,
but being both soluble in wafer and
volatile, most Of it is wa: he'd away
in separating the starch-grsnuIes,
and any that remains after washing
is driven eff by the heating and
stirring, which has to reach 2400 in
order to effect the changes above de-
scribed.
I suspect that the difference be-
tween the forms of tapioca and ar
rowroot has arisen from the neces-
sity of thus driving off the last traces
of the poison with which the abor-
iginaI manufacturers were so well
as to combine the indus
try of poisoning their arrows
with that of extracting the starch
food from the same root. No GER
tIfcate from the public analyst is
demanded to establish the absence
Of the poison from any given sample
Of tapioca, as the juice Of the mani>
hot-rOot, like that of other spurges,
is Enthusiastically scrid and nauseous.
Sage, which is g starch obtained
from the pith of the stem Of the
sago-E aim and other plants, is pre-
pared in grains like tapioe3, with
similar results. Both sage and ia
pioca contain a little gluten, and
have more food value than

SNAKE BITE.

On last Friday, the 2Sth ult.,
Messrs. r. Q. Houston. B. B. John.
son, George Mcmillan and w. K.
Reborts went on d door hunt IN the
Alpha river swamp, about thres
miles from tew After taking their
respective ssstands," Mr.. Houston
went below about three miles to
"driye up the swamp. When ne was
near the Brunswick &c Western
railway bridge, which crosses the
Alpha three miles east of this
Place, on his return, an immense
rattlesnake sprapg from the bush
and buried its fangs in the calf of
his lett leg. He at once called
for help, and fortunately Mr.. J.
7. Lloyd, section master. who
was having some work done near
and responded to his call. By the
time Mr.. Lloyd reached him Mr..
Houston's leg below the knee was
swollen to twice its usual sizs and
he was suffering great pain. Mr.. l..
bound q ligature around the leg
above the knee and then boarded
his hand.car to come to Alapatha
for q physician. Dr.. Fogle was
soon found and fastened to the scene
of suffering. When they reached
Mr.. Houston's side, wonderful to
relate, he was found sweetly sleep
ing, and the swelling was almost
gore from his leg. Around him
were lying dead near half
a bushel Of mosquitoes, who had
drawn the poison from him. The
gentlemen, in great surprise, aroused
Mr.. Houston, who, barring little
weakness from the loss Of blood was
as well as he ever was. This is a
story, and some may be
inclined just as we were, to doubt
1t at first, but we are personally
with the parties men,
except Mr.. Houston, and we
do not believe they would Vouch for
a story not true in every particular.
The snake was killed by the section
hands and measured five feet anu
four inches in length. and had nire-
teen rattles and a button.
