Cordillera Cows.

On the top of the Cordillera we met
with n drove of Argentine cattle, the
first that had ventured over this season.
The drovers have hard work, and many
good OK leaves his bones on the road,
proof of whic h we found in some skcle-
tons we came across, picked clean by the
condors which frequent the mountain
tops. We perceived several of these large
birds lowering overhead, their immense
wings extended and motionless, drifting
on that rarefed air as if they were sus
pended from the sky.
We had soon a striking example of the
dangers of the cattle driving trade. An
animal near us loosened big round
stone, which went bounding down the
steep mountain side right among the
drove which was winding its way up.
The missile singled out big black OK as
It's victim, and, with a fearful crash,
caught him full in the ribs and hurled
him downwards, in front of him till both
stone and OK lay immovable at the bot
tom, scarcely discernable by us above.
In spite of the evident danger of SINH
lar occurrence, we could not wait till the
whole herd of about seven hundred ami
mails had reached the summit, so, dis.
mounting, we went on our way, finding
good footing in the loose volcanic earth
and stones, and in thirty minutes we had
reached the valley Half way down we
passed some broken trunks, which, with
the mule that carried them, had fallen
and rolled over some two hundred feet
till stopped by protruding rock. The
mule had been badly hurt Gentle

Vinegar Eels.

DIR. G.. Lindner discusses the occur
renee of the "eels" common in
weak or impure vinegar. The males
and the females respectively mea-
sure 1-1t nm. and 14-2a nm. in
length. The worms move actively in q
fluid medium, creep slowly in thick con-
coctions, or coil together in complicated
knots. They thrive well on a diet of
egg, Withstand even tolerably strong
vinegar, are killed at once by pure acetic
acid, are very slightly perturbed by arti-
fetal digestive cultures, live well on
fruits, bulbs, etc. They flourish best be-
tween go degrees and 80 degrees, are
killed by a. temperature over 107 de-
grees, or under the freezing point; on
light and air they are very slightly de-
pendent, but to drought very sensitive
After desiccation for three or four hours
no revivitication even of the eggs was OBJ
served. The worms have great powers
of adaptation to the most diverse condi-
tions. Their natural home seems to be
in moist mud and in putridity, but they
are rare in drinking or running water
That millions of germs float in the air is
a fable. How they get into the vinegar
is uncertain, but they probably insinuate
themselves at certain stages of its man
ufacture. In vinegar prepared from
wine by the quick process they are very
rare. The ''vinegar cels' are not ex-
actly dangerous, but it is at once safe
and more appetizing to make sure either
that the vinegar is of the better sort, or
at least boiled and filtered.

An Enormous Aerolite,

In May, 1888, the National museum of
Brazil came into final possession of one
of the largest aeroites that has ever been
known to fall upon either of the Ameri-
can continents The noble specimen
weighs 1880 pounds, and originally
laid embedded in the ground near Ben
diego creek in one of the most inaccessi-
BILE portions of Brazil. The cost of
transporting it from the place where it
first struck American soil was betrayed
by Baron Greatly. The survey of the
route and preliminary arrangements oc-
cupied three months; its journey to the
capital commenced November 25, 1887,
and it was nearly five months later be-
fore it was finally landed at the little
railroad depot in the wilderness, from
whence it was transported to Rio ia
neiro. During the four months in which
it was being pulled, pushed and rolled
by man and mule power through the
trackless forests, over steep mountains
and sandy wastes, it crossed over 10C
streams of all sizes, was taken over one
mountain chain 8, 700 feet in height, be
sides many smaller elevations. All o.
this in q region where the best roads ar,
only mule paths. A better idea of the
difficulties these scientists encountered
in securing their prize may be had from
a knowledge of the fact that total o
172 days were consumed in moving i

Travel Over Brooklyn Bridge.

The travel over the Brooklyn Bridge is
greater than that over any other bridge
In the world, and that, too, in spite of
the fact that the best patronized bridges
on the other side are free. During the
year just passed 33, 900, 900 people either
walked or were driven over the Bridge.
On an average six persons take the cars
to one who walks over. In round num-
bers those who walked over were 81, $50, =
900 as against 1913, 900, 900 who used the
trains since the opening of the structure.
During the first six years the receipts
from travel were over $4, 100000. The
railway surpasses in the matter of receipts
any mile of railway in the world. July
and August are usually the dullest
months in the year and May about the
busiest. Sunday receipts are the small
est of any day in the week. The ferries
cannot vie with the Bridge in the mat
ter of travel In their best year, when
not exposed to bridge competition, the
Hamilton, Wall, South, Fulton and
Catherine Ferries carried altogether only
about 10000, 900 people. The increase
of travel has not been uniform since the
Bridge was opened, the growth being
about forty per cent, twenty per cent,
eighteen per cent, ten per cent, eight
per cent. and six per cent. All the tick
cts used ON the Bridge are printed on or
der from the Superintendent by bank
note company in million lots. Every
ticket is numbered and lettered and the
letter on each ticket corresponds to the
letter or form by which every ticket sell
Ter is known to the Superintendent.
Should counterfeit ticket be found In
a drop box its origin is easily traced,
because the drop box must not show any
two tickets marked alike and must con-
tain only the tickets with the particular
numbers charged to the agent. The drop
boxes are receptacles for all kinds Of
curious things. Ladies' bracelets, gloves,
pocketbooks, milk tickets, postal cards,
silver pieces, bank checks, cuff buttons
and thousand and one other things
have been taken from the boxes from
time to time.-[Ncw York Telegram.

Fruitful Farming.

Sufiield, Conn, affords a pleasing in
stance of thrift and contentment on a
twenty small-fruit and poultry farm.
+. n Spaulding, respected as a man and
neighbor, at home with sensible wife and
healthy, beautiful children, is a model
farmer, happy with his lot, yet eager to
learn; earnest in applying knowledge,
and noted as enterprising and progress
sive. He does not believe there is any
where a more promising opening for
young men than in agricultural pursuits.
He usually clears twenty FER cent. on
sales, above cost of raising and market
ing the produce, including fair count for
his own time. He can do far better in
this way, selling $40 to $50 worth of
truck weekly, than by working for $3 a
day at his carpenters trade He has all
the good things of farm life, the salts
faction of knowing that wife and chill
dren are well off; can spend much time
with the family, beside putting by
money-something many city men with
larger income cannot do. "Good
fruit" says Mr.. s., :" is the best thing
in the world for health; he who places
it before mankind does worthy work !;
and there seems to be no end to the de-
mand for it."-[New York Tribune.

A Poverty stricken Millionaire, ,

This seems paradox, but it is ex-
planned by one of New York's richest
men. 81 don't count my wealth in
dollars" he said. "What are all my
possessions to me, since I am q victim
of consumption ? My doctor tells me
that 1 have but few months to live,
for the disease is incurable. l am poor
er than that beggar yonder.n Butt
interrupted the friend to whom he spoke,

in time, DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery will eradicate every vestige
of the disease from your system" "rl
try it," said the millionaire, and he did;
and to-day there is not healthier,
happier man to be found anywhere.
The "Discovery" strikes at the seat of
the complaint. Consumption is dis
ease of the blood-is nothing more nor
less than lung scrofula and it must
and does yield to this wonderful remedy.
"Golden Medical Discovery" is not
only an acknowledged remedy for that
terribly fatal malady, when taken in
time and given a fair trial, but also for
all forms of Scrofulous, Skin and Scalp

A Pl ehistoric Metropolis.

The southeastern corner of Missouri,
comprising the counties of Stoddard,
Scott, Mississippi, New Madrid, PENIS
cot and Dunkin, must at one time have
had an immense population. No quarter
of Missouri is so rich in burial mounds
covering the remains of previous races.
Tumii and funeral relics, comprising
jars, bottles, vases and other objects of
ealthenwaie are to be found everywhere,
even in the midst of the swamps. The
colored people do good business in
digging up these relics and selling them,
but what they find is but tithe of what
they leave undisturbed In one ridge,
about ten miles from New Madrid, there
are over two hundred mounds, from ten
to twenty feet in diameter, each proba-
bly, containing remains and relics. They
are not the remains of the present race of
Indians, but of their predecessors, the
mound builders, and are interesting to
the antiquarian for no other reason than
that he knows nothing about them and
is free to speculate concerning their ori-
gin and history. ry.-[Globe- Democrat.

Rat was there between his underclothes

Mr.. Gable, though oooly setting about
TO get the rodent out, was fearful all
the while that 1t would bite him. He
held his pants open by the waistband,
but the rat would not come out. Then
he went on the pavement and asked
passers-by to help him, but they only
laughed ct him, supposing that the rat
was candy affair, and went their way.

matter to ask her to remove the rat, she
was not called into requisition. Fin.

upon the floor, killing it. Mr.. Cable

An Educated Bull.

General Daniel Macauley tells some
racy stories about his life at Greytown,
where he has been general traffic mana
ger for the Nicaragua Canal Company.
One relates TO an educated bull. ~
Greytown has one long street running
through it, and scarcely any others, so
that everything that goes on>in the town
may be seen from one end of it, up or
down this street, to the other. "The
killing of cattle for beef" says General
Macauley, sis done at killing post in
the center of the town. The beef cattle
are brought in from ranches one, two or
three miles away. Sometimes vaqueros
bring them in. A rope is tied to the
animals horns and another to his tail.
A vaquero will ride in front holding one
rope, and another vaquero behind hold
ing the other. This makes a sort of
procession, and as the animals are all
wild and mostly ugly and inclined to
make trouble there is no end of fun in
watching this procession go down the
street. But the greatest spectacle is
= when they send little old yellow bull
out to the ranch to bring in steer.
They tie the steer and the bull together
by thorns Ut inc norns anu INC taiis' anu
turn them out of the ranch. The bull
has been taught to make straight for the
killing post, and when he comes down
the street hundreds of persons go out
to watch him. The other beast often
makes desperate fight to get away,
spreading his feet wide apart and refus-
ing for time to move, or leaping and
kicking. The old bull acts just like a
policeman who has tough customer to
handle. He lets the other animal turn
and twist and jump, but whenever there
is any sign of relaxation from over ex-
ertion be gives yank and starts toward
the post, where he invariably lands his
comnaniop. "-INew York Press.

Peculiar Family Names.

There is family in Charlestown In
which are four boys; the first was
named Leon G. Carter, the second was
given the name of Elmo c., no thought
being given to the name previously given !;
later the coincidence was noted that the
name of the first son contained exactly
the letters of the second, and that, also
by accident, the termination of the mid
die name was ''ton." Two additional
sons were born, and here are the names
of the four:
Leon G. Carter.
Elmo c. Carter.
Noel G.. Carter.
Enol G. Carter.
The middle name in each instance ter
minating in "ton." We doubt if any
other family can match this combina-
tion.-[ Lawrence Mass American.

"Anchor Ice."

Anchor ice is usually formed at night
around stones at the bottom of rivers,
before the top is frozen. While the ex-
act cause of the phenomenon is somewhat
obscure, it is probably due to radiation
of heat from the stones, through the
water and air to the celestial space.
The formation of anchor ice is analogous
to the disposition of the hoar-frost on
terrestrial objects, which radiate their
heat in the same way, till their tempera-
ture is reduced below the freezing point.
The fact that anchor ice is formed most
abundantly in clear water and on cloud
less nights tends to confirm this theory
