DRIVING THROUGH MUD.
How to Prevent Needless Wear and Decay
Of BugEies and Wagons.


After a heavy rain, when carriage
roads are covered with two Of three in-
inches (morc or less) Of partly liquid
mud. a buggy may be driven for miles
with such care as % receive very little
Of it except what adheres To the rim
of the wheels. Or a mud-pool extend
ing the whole breadth of the road may
have tn be- passed and would spoil the
new varnish Of the vehicle unless the
driver has learned by trial how fast
he must drive for the occasion. We
have seen careful driving over a GER
tain road. with scarcely n deface-
ment: and again needless driving over
the same line with formidable damage.
a vehicle which il allowed to become
covered more OF less with soil and
sand is worn out in half the time which
a clean one may continue Ia be used.
When il is remembered that the wheel
vehicles of the country at large rave
cost the owners i'm the aggregate more
than two hundred million dollars, the
amount of money saved in preventing
needless wear and decay must be OBJ
vious.
IL the horse is driven on a walk, or
about three miles an hour. the mud
will adhere to the rim Of the wheels
aud be- carried up by them as they
revolye. Its weight will cause IL tn
drop on the spokes and hub, and
these. in a short time, will be COW
cred with il in n adheriBg mass
But drive "a little faster. on a slow or
moderate trot fOur and n half or five
miles an hour. and then the mud which
is carried mp on the rim Of the wheels
will not drop. for the increased circular
motion now given to them will impart
enough centrifugal force Ia hold the
mud To the wheels. The rim is the only
part hat will be muddy: the spokcs
and hub will be clear. The writersh has
successfully practised this course more
than fifty years. But il the horse is
driven six or seven miles an hour. this
increased velocity will send the mud
of, and all parts % the vehicle will re-
ceive a copious plastering. At a speed
of eight OF nine miles. il will be shot As
high as the top of the cover, and the
driver will be liable To receive a liberal

Borneo is the home OF the orang-

man, occupies the third place from the
highest in the animal kingdom. The
gorilla has the highest place. the Chin
panzee comes next in order, then the
orang. The males are as fond of fight

them, bite off each others fingers and

An orang's instinct is 70 seize and
bring an offending hand to its mouth,
that it may bite the member. This
baby orang, though only six months
old. made s o many attempts to put the
n~a,uralist's hands up to its mouth that
he was obliged to tie its elbows togcth.

Even then, when he was not watch
ing it, the orang rolled over aud seized
the calf of his leg between his teeth.
But for the hunting trousers and wooden
stockings the naturalist would have
LOST piece of his leg. At last il relieved
the naturalist Of anxiety by dying. A
baby orang of more gentle disposition
was brought to Mr.. Hornaby with its
hand and feet bound.
When he approached it instead Of at
tempting to bite it whined softly and
rolled up its big brown eyes so appeal
ingly that the naturalist cut its bands
and placed il on pile of soft straw. Ii
soon became a pet and was named 'Old
Man." on account Of its bald head and
air of profound gravity. II was fond Of
being held in the naturalist's arms and
when he grew tired it would grasp the
folds Of his flannel shirt and hold itself.
