Thick Skinned Animals.

The whale, which belongs to the man.
malta, no doubt holds the palm for thick
ness of skin. At some parts of its body,
the skin is only two inches thick, but in
many places its pelt is fully two feet in
thickness. The skin of the whale is the
substance usually known as blubber, and
in large specimen will weigh altogether
more than thirty tons. The distinction
of being the thickest-skinned quadruped
belongs to the Indian rhinoccros. whose
hide has knotty OF granulated surface,
and is so impenetrable as to resist the
claws of the lion or tiger, the sword, or
the balls of the old-fashioned musket.
So stiff and hard is this skin that were it
not divided by creases or folds the ami
NAL imprisoned in its armor could scarce
ly move. 1t is manufactured into leather
of great strength and durability, and tar
gets and shields are made of it that are
absolutely proof against darts or sword
strokes. The skin of the hippopotamus
runs that of the rhineroceros very closely
as regards thickness. When dried it is
also used for shields, which are highly
priced by natives. -~"

A Cunning MiniOn of the Law.

The other day young London doctor,
who, doubtless from some scientific or
other high motive, had declined to pay a
bill, had "distress" served upon him in
the most ingenious manner. He intelli-
gence had long defed the bloodhounds of
the law, but the brokers' man alone was
one too many for him. The doors were
locked, the windows bolted, the area gate
impregnable; but the genius to whom
had been intrusted the task of entering
the castle, was equal to the occasion.
What he looked for was ''the motive"-
that is, the motive which would be most
like to induce young doctor to open his
door; and he found it in "patient. "
He drove up to the door in cab as a
chronic but well-to-do invalid. Swathed
in flannel he tottered up the steps, and
when the sympathizing physician let him
in and was about to inquire into his case,
he replied: "Summons, sir; I'm the
brokers' man. ."-Argonaut.
