Across the snow,

Soon, soon are past.

Yankees think themselves fairly in

them ever thought of simple trick
which an American traveller in Siberia
saw performed by native of that eoun-
try?
We had been wet since morning, and
as natural consequence our feet were
swollen and boots shrunken to such an
extent that we despaired of getting them
of at all No plan which our ingenuity
could devise was found to answer.
When all had failed. our invaluable
Yakov came to the rescue, and by the
application Of his teeth to the toe of
each boot-which were fortunately long
aided by his hands at the heels, effect
ed his purpose with surprising ease.

How Masssna Rewarded bravery.

Massena, when wounded, had his car
riage, coachman and position at Wag-
ram, where hundreds of men were killed
near their carriage. A ball went through
the coat of one Of them. another ball
killed one of the horses. The whole
army admired their bravery, which was
of the most voluntary sort, as they were
not soldiers. The emperor said to Mas
sena: ''There are here SOC. 900 fighting
on both sides. Well, would you know
who are the bravest? They are your
coachman and your position, as we are
all here to do our duty, while they have
no military obligations"
The marshal had very large fortune.
He received 200, 900 francs as commander
of an army, 100000 as Due de Rivoh,
300. 900 francs as Prince of Essling. Mas
sena, however. waited two months with
out thinking of doing anything Cor these
two men. One evening he was with his
staff and announced that he would give
to each 400 francs. Marriott imprudently
asked, -Four hundred francs yearY'
Massena was furious, and said, DO you
want to ruin me?"-San Francisco Argo-

the largest skeleton of any extinct ami

specuIations from storms.

Physicists-that is to say, the physi-
cists who are not idling-are now busy
reaping the aftermath of the thunder
storms which for week or more have
been the chief meteorological feature of
our climate. Lightning of every type
zigzag, with sharply defined borders,
without any apparent width. in sheets
or in the shape of fireballs-has been
seen, and several lives have been lost by
these Olympian thunderbolts But what
is most curious is that cattle have been
more frequently struck than human be-
ings. even when the chances of both
were equal. This has been noticed more
than once by students of electricity.
Thus, a miller standing between a
horse and mule was only shaken lit
tie, while the animals were killed. There
is also the well known instance of the
Abbey of Noirmoutiers, near Tours.
where flash of lightning killed twenty
two horses without doing any other
harm to the $50 monks whom it visited
in the refectory than overturning the $50
bottles which contained their rations Of
wine.-London Graphic.

David Cope, who occupies shop on
Gay street, has family of nine young
alligators which play around him like
kittens. The saurians are from eight
inches to toot long and are about six
months old. Mr.. Cope caught them last
spring in Florida, and brought them
home with him for the amusement of
himself and friends. They were very
savage, and would snap at anybody who
touched them when he first caught
them, but they have now become quite
tame when inN presence of any one
that they are familiar with
They play about Mr. Cope's feet and
crawl about the floor Catching flies is
great pastime with them, and their
jaws sliut on their food with snap
that is quick and startling. If a
stranger enters the shop the alligators
know it instantly, and make off into the
corners of the room and hide themselves
behind anything that may be convenient.

Plants THAT Are ReservoIr..

In Africa many plants live by means
OF teshy bulbs buried deep under the
ground, and in years when no rain falls
they do not appear above the surface, or
flower. Many plants have thick, fleshy
leaves, in which they. store up moisture
against the time of need; some, such as
the common sorrel and dandelion, be-
come ice plants; all over their feshy
leaves and stems are little diamondlike
drops. which when broken are found to
be full of pure water, a little plant some-
times having a cupful stored in this way
Some live by having their leaves closely
pressed together into little solid squares
or balls, so saving all evaporation from
their surfaces. Fortnightly Review.
