Odd Ways of Getting Water.

When Mr.. David Lindsay returned from
his expedition across part of the Austria
liam desert while ago. he said the whole
of that waterless country was inhabited by
natives who get their water supply by
draining the roots of the malice tree, which
yield quantities of pure water. This tree,
absorbing moisture from the air. retains it
in considerable quantities in its roots and
thus makes it possible to live in an arid
region, which would otherwise be uninhab-
stable.
There are people in other parts of the
The prison mirror. [volume] (Stillwater, Minn.) 1887-1894, 1892-03-10

world who get their supply of water in a
peculiar way. The explorer COudreau. for
instance, found while ago while wander
ing among the Tumuc. Humac Mountains,
in the western part of Guiana, that it was
not necessary for his men to descend to a
creek when they wanted drink of water.
A vine known as the water vine is found
all through that region. It yields an abun-
dant supply of excellent drinking fluid
whenever it is called upon. This vine
grows to height of sixty to ninety feet.
It is usually about as thick as the upper
part of the human arm. 1t winds itself
loosely around trees. chambers up to their
SUBMITS. and then falls down perpendicu-
larly to the ground. where it takes root
again.
The natives cut this vine off at the ground
and then. at height of about six or seven
feet. they cut it again. which leaves in their
hands very stout piece of wood a little
longer than themselves. In order to obtain
its sap they raise the lower end of the vine
upon some support and apply the upper
end to their mouths. The section of the
vine. while showing smooth, apparently
compact surface, is pierced with many little
VEINS through which the sap flows freely.
Six feet of the vine gives about pint of
water. which is slightly sweet to the taste.
COudreau says that it quenches thirst as eff
fectively as water from the most refreshing
brook.
The bushmen in the Kalahari Desert
often live scores of miles from places where
water comes to the surface. During GER
tain part of the year sharp storms pass over
the Kalahar. covering the apparently arid
region with the brightest of verdure and FL
ling, for few short days. the water courses
with roaring torrents. The bushmen know
how to find water by digging in the bottom
of these dried up river beds. They dig a
hole three or four feet deep and then tie a
sponge to the end of hollow reed. The
sponge abSOrbS the moisture at the bottom
of the hole. and the natives draw it into
their mouths through the reed, and then
empty it into calabashes for future use.
The animals that inhabit such wastes as
the Kalahari are of course accustomed to
living upon very small and infrequent sup
plies of water. The Bechuana do not lead
their cattle to the drinking places oftener
than once in two or three days. 1t is said
that goats in the Kalahari frequently pass
months without water. and. according to
Mr.. Mackenzie. there are certain antelOpes
which are never seen to visit the drinking
places.
In that enormous waste known as the
Cobb desert. north of China, showers some
times fall during the summer, and the tor
rents of day fill the dried-up water
courses through which water seldom runs.
1t is in these channels that the MOngols dig
their wells, expecting to find little water,
when upon the surface of the plateau itself
the soil has lost all traces of humidity. 1t
is owing to the fact that part of the mois.
ture falling during few rainy days is thus
preserved within reach that it is possible for
caravans to cross the desert.-N. Y. Sun.
