occasionly to make up for loss. Take
out leaf and rub it between the fingers
under water. If the skin and pulp sep

boil for some time longer. Having
cleaned the skeletons, bleach them in a
solutio.. OF bleaching powder, .easpoon-
full to the pint, aiding about a table,
spoonful of strong vinegar to iberate the
chlorine. Let them remain in this for
about ten minutes. Wash in water, and
float them out on pieces of paper. N.
B.-Take care that the soda solution
touches the fingers as littl, as possible,
as it may remove their epidermi' as well
as that of the leaves. Another authority
says: The skeletons must be thorou .hly

An Otter Hunting Il Man,

ness anl be ready for any danger; but
symUsmeniose their prcsence of mind and
courage, and are hunted by their game.
The following story is told by the GAlla.
tin (Mo.) Democrat:
Mr.. William Prcwitt, while out hunt
ing rabbits in Daviess county, found
several large ottcrs, one OF which he shot.
Thinking the animal was dea !, he APP
preached very near, when, to his surprise,
it made a furious attack. Mr. P. imme-
diately fed, closely pursued by the inluri-
ated animal. A very low rail fence was
close at hand, and our friend sprang
nimbIy over; but equally nimble was the
otter, which, rs Mr.. P. went over the
fence, went through. Our now very
muck frightened friend, seeing his foe
on the same side of the fence, sprang
nimbly back. This game was kept up
for some time, until, completely exhaust
ed, Mr.. P. made several frantic leaps,
ane finding the animal just passing
through the fence, he, in desperation,
graspcd it by the tail, and catching its
leg through another crack, sank cx-
hlusted to the ground. The shricks and
cries of Mr.. Prcwtt for help, mingled
With the enraged snar!s and citing of
file animal, were heard at the fa;m, near
ly mile distant, and he was sooa re-
licved from his awkward situation, but
SO exhausted ana cnfleb!cd by the fright
that it was some time before he could
walk sufficiently to get to III, house.

Language Of tho Eyes.

Long almond. shaped eyes, with thick.
skinned eyelids that cover half tho ru.
pill, are indicative of genius when they
are found in conjunction with a brow
which is full over the eyebrows, and
which has one deep perpendicular line
between the eyebrows. have frequent
y noticed this combination in the faces
OF distinguished literary men and arti,s.
The almond.shapcd eye, however, even
without this peculiar form of forehead,
always means susceptible, impression
able nature. Eyes which arc large, open
and very transparent, and which sparkle
with rapid motion under well dcaacd
eyelids, denote elegance in taste, some
what susceptible temper. and great in
terest in the opposite sex. Eyes with
weakly marked eyebrows above them,
and with thlnly growing eyelashes. which
are complete without any upward curve.
denote feeble constitution and q mel.
ancholy disposition. D.ep.sunkcn and
small blue eyes, under bony, almost
perpendicular forehead, are indicative of
selfish and cold.hearted natures. Eyes
which show not only the whole Of the
iris, but also som, Of the white both
above and be,ow it, denote restless,
uncerta n nature, incapable OF repose or
of concentrated thought on any subject.
Round-shaped eyes are never seen in the
face of highly intellectual person, but
they denote kindly, truthful AMI inno.
cent nature. Eyes which, when seen in
profile, are so protuberant as to run al.
most parallel with the profile of the nose,
how weak organization of body and
mind. Eyes rather close together show
penetration, but eyes close together dc.
note cunning and al unit u;hful disposi-
ton. Eyes rathe. far ap TT are ind ca
tive Of frankaess and simplicity Of pn7-
pose-an hone,t AMI guleless nature.
When, however, the eyes are very far
apart, they denote stupidity. Eyes with
sharply defined ange', sinking at the
corners, show su 1t ETY. of mind; the
harper the angle and the more it sinks,
the greater the delicacy of PERCEPTION it
denotes; but when vc"y mucl devel"p.l
it shows also craftincss amounting to de-
ceit. Well-opened eyes, with smooth
eyeiids and a stealy and somewhat fix
ed glance, denote sincerity. Lines run.
ming along the eye.ids from side to sile,
and passing out upon the temples denote

plore Putnam river, Alaska, which was

empties into the Arctic near Point Bur-

Medical Instinct In Animals.

Animals get rid OF their parasites by
using dust. mud, clay, etc. Those SUI
fcring from fever restrict their diet, keep
quiet, seek dark, airy places, drink water
and sometimes plunge into it. When
dog has lost its appetite it eats that
species Of grass known as dogs grass,
which acts as an cmctic and a puryative.
Cats a'so eat grass. Sheep and COWS,
when i'll, seek out certain herbs. An
animal suffering from chronic rheumatism
always keeps as far as possible in the sun.
The warrior ants have regularly organ.
izcd ambu.enccs.
Latreilic cut tho antcnn e of the mt
and other ants came and covered the
wounded part with transparent aaid
sccrctcd in their mouths. II a chimpan-
zee is wounded it stops the bleeding by
placing its hand on the wound or dress
ing it with leaves and grass. When an
animal has wounded leg or arm hang
ing on it completes the amputation by
means of its teeth. A dog, onb ling stung
on the muzz!e by viper, was observed to
plunge his head repeatedly for several days
into running water. This animal eventu-
ally recovered. A sporting dog was run
over by n arriage. During three weeks
in winter it remained lying in a brook,
where its food was taken to it. This
animal recovered. A terrier hurt its
right eye. 1t remained under a counter,
avoid ng light and heat, although it
habitually kept close to the fire. 1t
adopted general treatment, rest and
abstinence from food. The local treat
mcnt consisted in licking the upper sur
face of the paw, which is applied to the
wounded eye; again licking the paw
when it became dry. Animals suff ring
from traumatic fever treat themselves by
the continued application of cold water.
which NJ. De,aunay considers to be more
certain thnn any of tile other methods.
Iu view of these interesting cts we are,

and therapeutics, as produced by animals
