The Porcupine.

Who has not heard the backwoods
hunter entertain his open-mouthed
and equally as ignorant audience
with stories Of our gentle and inof-
fensive" porcupine, who "threw his
quilts until the dogs were covered and
left in disgust, bowling with pain, !"
or some other "bosh" to the same
effect. How positively he makes the
assertion. There can be mo doubt
that hunters of this ilk frequently
say shear" when they have seen
nothing more formidable than a
harmless grounding. Nature ar
mored our porcupine in a manner that,
when excited and with spines raised,
woe to the quadruped or biped either,
for that matter, who comes; in con-
tact with this bundle of prickers.
"Porky's" body is covered with a thick
layer of fat, in which the quilts or
spines are rather insecurity fastened.
Each spine has set of minute barbs
at the outer end. But touch spine
and it sticks, and can only be re-
moved by force. A dog Or fox that
lacks experience and undertakes
meal at the porcupine's expense
usually ends by filling with spines not
only his mouth, but his head and
paws as well, and not unfrequently
death results from his temerity.-

South American Railroads.

Railroads did not begin in South
America until 1864, but in the little
more than quarter of a century that
has since elapsed their growth has
been extraordinarily rapid. Brazil
has now 5000 miles of railroad in
operation, and several thousand more
in course of construction or planned.
Great rivers favorable to navigation
traverse the best parts Of the conti-
nent, so that the facilities for COM
munfcation are even better than the
railroads constructed would indicate.

didos they move off steadily in long
line without manifesting the pioneer
spirit of accommodation for the benefit
of the hunter, and when they get a
commanding position of four or five
miles stop and wink the other eye.
Next day we hunted in earnest, the
captain and correspondent followed the
sun toward the west, Frank Grouard
and Lieutenant Rhodes crossed the river
to the east, Professor i. held the fort,
and the cavalrymen secured the country
in al dire tions. How the game got
away is a mystery, but it did. Follow
ing up the long draws on horseback we
saw many deer signs running toward the
river, but the fleet and crafty animals
were away back in the hills. There
were many tracks of mountain lion, and
occasionally coyote would bark at US
and turn tail as bullet responded to
his welcome The first day was consid-
cred well spent in getting the lay Of the

When I was in Atlanta, Ca, some
time ago, said Mr.. Constine, was in
yited by friend to visit peach can
merry in which he was employed.
After / had completed my tour of the
cannery / missed valuable charm
that [ had been wearing on my watch
chain. | was sorry to lose it, for it
was the gift of a dead sister. | Of
fered a liberal reward, but to no pur-
pose. I returned home, and gave up
all hope of recovering it. About two
months ago | came to the Pacific

I started to eat the peaches, and was
in the act of cutting one when the
spoon struck some hard substance. [
worked the substance out and held it
up to the light. 1t was my missing
charm.
The story is strange one, and /
certainly should hardly be willing to
believe it myself if it were told to me

way / can account for the mysterious
disappearance and recovery of the

among the peaches without my noting
it and was thus strangely recovered. .

eight miles before Grouard's bullets laid
them low. in the river bottom. The
CAPTAIN had been lucky, and our party
had manageable pile up a blackboard full
of game, that was sent to Fort McKin-
ney next day. Coming in that evening
Lieut.. Rhodes and myself had wild
chase through the timber, but the deer
got away.
Again we are in an antelope country.
The correspondent had been practicing
with his rifle The Lieutenant could
down the ace of spades with his carbine
at 200 yards, and he had as yet failed to
down deer or antelope What hope
had poor tenderfoot! Grouard cheer
fully said, "You will bring in an antelope
to-day" A word like this from prophet
of the plains was inspiring. About II
o'clock Grouard decried band of ante
lope. We took a long circuit, and finally
got within 200 yards OF them, but firing
simultaneously, each breaking an ante
lope's hind leg. Now to cut them off
from the herd. 1t took hard riding, but
the two wounded ones were laggards,
and we turned them about. Then it
One of the animals disappeared as sud-
denly as if he had dropped into a hole
in the ground. We kept on the jump
after the other. Strange how an ante
lope can run and maneuver on three
legs. This one kept us on the
move, through prairie dog towns, droves
of jack rabbits, up gullies and down
hills for eight miles. But we gained on
the antelope; he tried to play with my
sympathies. but he was doomed, Grou-
ard circled about the animal like a
hawk, and filed the air with laughter.

tremely exciting for me; it was tragedy
for the poor antelope. At any rate,

fit, and was crowned by fine pair OF
horns. That night there was JOY in my
dreams.
One thing to be certain of is that
game, in the wild West, does not hunt
the hunter under the conditions that our
party experienced But dozen ante
lope and fifteen deer Should satisfy for a
ten days hunt.

Can 1t Be Made to Take the Place of Tea
and Coffee?

Can 1t Be Made to Take the Place of Tea
and Coffee?
A well-known medical journal is
recommending the kola nut as a
substitute for tea and coffee. The
nut, it is said, contains little tannin
and not much more caffeine. 1t is
claimed that it will soon take the
place of tea and coffee entirely.
A botanist, who has made a special
study of the nut and it's properties,
said to a Cincinnati Times-Star re-
porter: at is a mistake to say that
the nut will take the place of tea and
coffee. 1t has an astringent taste
that is unpleasant, and | do not be-
lieve that it will ever be used extern
sively, or at all, in civilized countries.
The kola nut is a native of the coasts
Of Africa, but has been introduced
into and thrives we'll in the West In
dies and Brazil. 1t grows on a tree
forty feet high, which produces pale
yellow flowers spotted with purple.
The leaves of the tree are six or eight
inches long, and are pointed at both
ends. The fruit consists of five long,
slender pods radiating from common
center. One of these when broken
open is found to contain several nuts
somewhat similar to haZelnuts and of
about the same size. The nuts are
solid, being slightly softer toward the
center than on the outside.
"The natives of the countries where
the nuts grow use them for various
purposes. They pass for money in
Africa. They are also used as SYM
Dol of friendship and hate, the light
colored ones signifying the former,
and the dark the latter. They are
supposed to aid digestion, and it is
the practice to chew small bit be-
fore eating a meal. They allay thirst,
and if small piece be chewed and
held in the mouth while drinking, the
most bitter and stagnant water can
be taken, and will taste sweet and
agreeable. / doubt if this quality of
rendering stagnant water pure is pos
sible by the nuts. / rather think
that the astringent taste of the nut
paralyzes the gustatory nerves mo-
mentarily, and for that reason the
water is not tasted. Hunger they are
also supposed to allay, but they do no
more than paralyze the nerves. They
have stimulating effect, and when
going on long marches the natives
chew bits of the nuts continually,
and with about the same effect as if
Intoxicating liquor had been used,
though without the same bad results.
Powdered kola nut is sprinkled in
cuts and wounds and has healing
effect.
"A chemical analysis of the nuts
shows them to contain 20 parts OF
caffeine and but fraction of part
of tannin. No, it will never be used
in the place of tea and coffee. Its
taste and chemical properties are
against it..

EARTHQUAKES in Japan.

During the nine years and six
months preceding December, 1884,
there had occurred in Japan, accord
ing to the official statement published
by the government, $50 earthquakes,
averaging one earthquake for every
six days and six hours. Professor
Milne was able to make the average
even greater than this, according to
a writer in the Illustrated American.
He could trace an average OF an earth
quake per day in Nagasaki, ia the ex-
IRENE south of the Japanese Archi-
pelago Probably the official statis-
ticswere compiled from the returns
of officials from all over the country,
in which case only those shocks which
caused loss of life or damage to prop
erty would be included. II this hypo-
thesis be correct, we should have an
average of more than one earthquake
per week, which was so violent that
it caused injuries to life or property
sufficiently serious to attract the at
tention of the local authorities, and.
in their judgement, to require re-
port to the central government.
Earthquakes being SO common peO-
pie scarcely notice them unless they
be extraordinary severe ones. For
instance. Miss Bird in her "Unbe-
aten Tracks" thus summarily dismiss
es two: while we were crossing the
court there were two shocks of earth
quake; all the golden wind bells which
fringe the roofs rang softly, and a
number of priests ran into the tenn
pie and beat various kinds of drums
for the space of half an hour"
AS every one knows, Japan is the
very hearth of earthquakes. In 1854
more than sixty thousand people lost
their lives in consequence of one Of
these great terrestrial catastrophes,
and it has been calculated that from
ten to twelve earthquakes, each last
ing several seconds, occur every year,
besides numerous others of too light
a nature to be worthy of remark.

Black Pearls.

Black pearls are exceedingly rare,
hence desirable. The reader may
not know that black pearls are not
really black, but vary in hue; some
have a shimmering blue light on their
surface, while others appear to be
green or gray. This harmonious
blending of subtle tints gives great
value to the gems.
