Among the attractions of the New
Zealand institute Mr.. Il. II. Govett
gives some startling cts as to the
bird-killing powers Of FiGOuiG brunoni-
ana or r. SiRclGiW. 4 sticky gum is
secreted by the carpets when they at
tain their full siz', but is nearly as
plentiful in their unripe as in their
ripe condition, Possibly attracted by
the flies which embalm themselves in
these sticky seed vessels, birds alght
on the branches, anl on one occasion
two silver-eyes (Zosteropos) and an
English sparrow were found with their
wings so glued that they were unable
to futter. Mr.. Govett's sister, think
ing to do a merc(ul act, collected all
the fruit bearing branches that were
within reach and threw them on a
dust heap. Next day about a dozen
silver-eyes were found glued to them,
four or five of the pods to each bird
She writes: Looking at the tree, one
sees tufts of feathers and legs where
the birds have died, and l don't think
the birds could possibly get away

The Turkish bath has recently come
into rather extensive use for curing the
ailments of horses; and few private
stables, as well as several belonging to
corporations, are now fitted with COM
plete horse baths. A recent number
of the Builder gives the plan of such
an establishment just added to the
stables Of the Great Northern Railway
company, which shows a compact
group of three rooms; one, serving
both as reception-room and as a place
for the final douche, being about fifteen
feet wide and twenty-four feet long;
while the two-hot rooms, opening out
of the reception room, are each some
what less than twelve feet wide by the
same length as the other. Hot air is
supplied to the smaller rooms from a
"stokery" outside, and ventilating
shafts remove it as fast as vitiated.
Both these rooms are separated from
the reception room by double doors, to
prevent loss of heat; and an opening,
over which curtain is hung, connects
the two.
The first warm room, a "tepidarium."
is kept at temperature of about 140
degrees Fahrenheit; while the second
room, a "calidarium," is kept at 100 Or
ITO degrees. The reception room is
warmed only by the heat which escapes
from the other two. The horses, upon
treatment, are first rubbed down in the
reception room, and led into the "tepi.
darium," where they stay until they
are accustomed to the heat, and are
then. if their case seems to need it,
taken into the "calidarium," where
they stay until sufficient perspiration
has taken place. From this room they
return directly into the reception room,
where they are bathed according to the
judgment Of the attendant in charge.
AS horses are naturally thin-skinned,
and liable to the disorders which pro.
ceed from checked perspiration, it
may be readily imagined that the Turk
ish bath, by its powerful action in
opening the pores of the skin, might be
of great use in treating them; and it is
said that firm of carriers in London
has had such bath in operation for
more than eleven years, treating dur
ing that time about twenty horses a
week.-Popular Science NetUs.

An AnecOdOte of Admiral FoOte,

From an article on Admiral Foote
and the Gunboats, by James B. Eads,
in the Century, we quote the follow
ing: ain the railway train gentle
man who sat in front of me, learning
that had constructed Foote's vessels,
introduced himself as Judge Foote, of
| Cleveland, a brother of the Admiral,
Among other interesting matters, he
related an anecdote of one of his little
daughters who was just learning to
read. After the capture of Fort Hen
ry the squadron was brought back
to Cairo for repairs, and, on Sunday
following, the crews, with their gallant
flag officer, attended one of the church
es in Cairo. Admiral Toote was a
thorough Christian gentleman and
excellent impromptu speaker. Upon
this occasion, after the congregation
had assembled. some one whispered
to him that the minister was ill and
would be unable to ofiiciate; where
upon the Admiral went up into the
pulpit himself, and after the usual
prayer and hymn, he selected as the
text John xiv, l; Let not your heart
be troubled: ye believe in God, believe
also in me- Upon this text he deliv-
cred what was declared to be an ex-
cellent sermon, or exhortation, after
which he dismissed the congregation.
An account of the sermon was wide.
ly published in the papers at the
time, and came into the hands of the
little niece just referred to. After she
had read it, she exclaimed to her faith
~ ncIe uuue ala not say that right"
"'Say what right?' asked the father.
"'Why, when he preached
"'Nhat did he say?'
"'He said, Let not your heart be
troubled: We believe in God, believe
also in me-"
"'Nell. what should he have said o
inquired the father
"'Well, he ought to said, "Let not
your heart be troubled: We believe in
God, believe also in the gun- boatS.'"

It's winter now, dear love,
'Tis winter, bitter, chill, and full of care;
Scarce do the hill-tops feel the touch of duy
Ere they be fading In the darkened air
Betwixt the sunset and the cleaning gray.
Scarce do the dells awaken with the sun,
So tranced and still, each tangled snowy
steep;
Scarce do the muflled, tinkling waters run,
So lonely are the wales through which they
creep;
Ten years, sweet Mistress, would give for one
If that could bring thee here,
So lonely are the fields; so silent and so drear
Tis winter now, dear love,
The thrush sings not, or sings in other lands
Dear memory is but pain and hope unblcst;
Upon lile's threshold chilled affection stands
Like some poor faltoring and unbidden lsuost.
The flowers of one sweet summertime are
dead,
Deep in the snow-drifts buried they arc
sleeping;
So soulless is the sun when love has fled,
Our treasured garlands withcr with the keep.

Elephant Sagacity.

When several elephants are driven
TO a bridge which they are expected to
cross, they always send forward the
smallest of the company first to try It's
strength. A writer in VGnity Fa~
gives another surprising example Oh
the sagacity Of these animals:
once asked an Indian road officer
what was the ceverest act he ever
knew an elephant to perform; and he
told me how once, when unloading
some steel tubing from on board ship,
it was the elephants task to carry the
pipes by means of his trunk from one
part of the wharf to another
The pipes had been oiled to prevent
them from rusting; and when the
elephant took one up, it slipped from
his grasp. lie tried it again with the
same result, and at last seemed TO COM
prehend what the reason of all this
was; for he soon afterward pushed the
pipe with his foot to where there was
a heap of sand, and rolled the pipe
backward and forward.
The sand, owing to the oil, adhered
to the tube, and the elephant then put
his trunk around it and carried 1T

mander, without aid or suggestion

Her MauIus Tokai, the celebrated
Hungarian writer, gives in an Aus
trim journal the following disclosures
concerning Bismarck's shirt of mail:
In the beginning Of 1866 when the
feeling between Austria anl Prussia
had become very bitter one, young
Hungarian magnate desired an audi
ence Of Bismarck. This young man, a
baron, was known in his native
country as very eccentric parsonage.
He had not paid single farthing of
taxes during the long reign of absolu-
tion; his lands had been left unculti.
vated to save his being obliged to pay
duty. On being admitted to Bismarck's
presence he stepped up to the latter
and informed him that he had invent
ed shirt of mail, not only bulletproof,
but also not pleasant to wear The
Chancellor smiled, upon which the
magnate observed that he wore such a
shirt, and requested Bismarck to test
its powers of resistance. The Chan
cellor is not man to be trhed with,
and, seeing that he had not a fool
before him, seized his revolver and
fred five shots successively at his
visitor. The latter remained unharm-
ed and immovable, while the bullets
struck him and fell to the ground.
Hereupon he showed the Chancellor
his invention. 1t was shirt Of many
folds sewn together. The elasticity
and denseness Of the stuff gave it such
a power of resistance The Hungarian
nobleman now advised the Chancellor
to accept his invention, and when the
latter inquired W hat was to be the
price OF it, he said:
"Beat the Austrians."
eve shall do ihat in nnu ooro." -
piled Bismarck.
Some days after this occurrence,
Blind made an attempt on Bismarck's
life, firing five shots at the latter at the
distance of two or three PAGES only.
The newspapers stated that the Chan
cellor appeared quiet, cool and even
smiled while being shot at Not one
