Dragoa o. Holy writ.

Among other interesting things
now on exhibition in Philadelphia,
says the Buffalo Commercial, Is q
helliosaurus, supposed by naturalists
to have been extinct for 200 years, and
regarded as the dragon Of holy
writ. The only description given by
naturalists has been derived from in
formation obtained through the find
ing OF the petrified animal In an up
per strata Of stone in Tilgate forest.
In Sussex and Kent counties, Eng
land.
The Philadelphia specimen Is about
five feet long, and was captured last
June in Egypt. It is covered with a
thick skin having the appearance Of
scales, and along its back is q row OF
conical bones, resembling the fin OF a
large fish. The animal has the general
appearance Of a large lizard, its tail
being about the same length as its
body. It has five long talon-like toes
on each foot, and possesses two rows
OF teeth, which it is always ready to
use. The dragon Is vicious animal,
and, when touched with stick, will
rear almost perpendicularly on its
tail, while its small eyes will give
forth baleful light. accompanied
with Kissing noise, very similar to
that made by a snake. The eyes are
dark, surrounded by blood-red iris.

The Delsartian doctrine OF rest by
voluntary muscular relaxation Is
somewhat confirmed by the expert
ence OF those who have acted upon
this theory In overcoming insomnia.
Nothing 80 quickly brings sleep a.
the voluntary disposal Of the body
and limbs In such fashion as to pro-
mote muscular relaxation. The legs
and arms should be 50 placed as to
bring them In contact with tho mat
tress at as many points as possible.
This affords support and relieves the
muscles. The body should be disposed
In like fashion, and II all has been done
properly the wooer Of sleep will pres
entity have the consciousness Of rest
ing his whole weight directly upon
the mattress. When once this feeling
comes. sleep generally follows. The
plan is better than the old one of re-
peating the numerals. or going over
some meaningless series OF words, for
1t has the double advantage of put
ting the physical man into an attitude
of repose and of distracting the mind
from whatever thoughts are at enmity
with sleep.

Tn. In..inet. Or Trees.

Everyone has observed how certain
kinds OF trees In a forest reach up.
ward and outward for the sunlight.
They cannot exist without 1t, and
amid the crowd OF competitors BY
which they are surrounded, they have
q hard struggle to obtain the life Civ.
ing beams.
Some kinds Of trees which do moi
require much sunshine often envelop
and half-smother those which require
more, and which are compelled to run
up their trunks to great height In
order that their crown of leaves may
be exposed to the light.
Frequently such trees resemble tall
columns when viewed from the aisles
OF the forest below, as no branches
appear upon their trunks until they
have attained the top OF the surround.
ing foliage.
But II one would use his eyes to the
best advantage, 1t Is not enough to
observe merely that some trees reach
after the light more eagerly than
Others do. The difference In the kind
OF trees that behave thus should be
noted.
Poplars, walnuts, hickories, willows,
birches, pines and locusts thirst fol-
the sunlight, and cannot thrive un-
less they have plenty Of 1t. Yews,
beeches and spruces thrive In the
shade.
The reader would find most inter-
esting study in noting the preferences
shown by different trees In this re-
spect. Their instincts In following
the dictates which nature has given
them sometimes appears almost as
surprising as that exhibited by ami.

How the chine.e Set q Bone.

In setting a fractured limb they
make no effort to bring the bones into
appositiont The Chinese medical man
simply takes lot Of red clay and en-
veIopes the limb with it. Then he
takes some strips Of bamboo and in
dents them into the clay. Bandages
are wrapped around those strips, and
In the outer bandages he places the
head of live chicken. After he has
secured this bandage he cuts the
head off the fowl, allowing the blood
to flow and penetrate the fracture.
He then takes the chickens head
from beneath the bandage and covers
the exterior with thick coating Of
glue. The reason given for applying
the chickens head is that it nourishes
the broken or fractured limb and is
cheap good medicine. = Butte

Dickens was never happier than
when he was adding fresh jewel to the
crown OF virtue with which he liked
to think the brow Of poverty was
adorned. or their sympathy for each
other, he said: What the poor feel
for the poor is little known, except to
themselves and God, and for those
above them in station, he believed it
to be equally real. Where, but in his
pages, shall we find so uncomplaining
and loving a loyalty as that Of Joe
Gargery for forgetful Pip? Where
such prudent counsel, and such frank
bearing and active helpfulness as in
Mrs. Bagnet? Where shall we look
for an unselfishness to match that OF
the Boffins, who did not lose their vir-
tues with their poverty; or fine
courtesy like that of Cap'n Cutie, a
true gentleman, if ever there was one?
Is there another household so warmly
hospitable as that of the Peggottys,
or fidelity as answering as that OF
Mark Tapley and Sam Weller?-Corn-

The Turks have proverbs without
number: and very polished and cyni-
cal Turkish proverbs are. The taci-l
turn Arabs prefer proverbs 70 every
other form Of speech, and use them
with singular dignity and aptness.
The Koran seems to have been en-
riched with them for the express pur-
pose Of quotation. The Chinese are
very prone to cruel, little, cold blooded
proverbs, as oblique as their eyes, but
full Of grim sagacity. The Japanese
rejoice In iiowery maxims, combining
wisdom with humor, and often with q
touch Of pathos that makes them
cling In the memory long after the
rest Of the discourse Is forgotten.
Even the Coreans, shamefaced mutes
as they are, indulge in a few shy prov
cribs. The Polynesians. with their
Babel Of tongues and dialects, have Q
myriad Of proverbs, many Of them
highly picturesque and striking. The
Maoris of New Zealand, the finest
savages In the world, cannot carry on
q discussion for i've minutes without
resorting 30 proverbs. 80 profound
Is the respect for proverbs, as for
everything ancient or obscure, among
the Maoris, that q willy and ready ora
tor, failing to carry his audience by
nero reason, will sometimes not
too often-help himself out with an
admirable proverb. invented on the
spur OF the moment, but fathered on
some demigod Of awful sanctity or
some war chief Of gloriously cannibal
memory. Such an appeal is seldom
unsuccessful, even though the audi
ence have shrewd suspicion that the
proverb which has pleased and i'm
pressed them so much Is neither SO
old nor SO genuine as 1t might be.
The degraded tribes that yet linger
on the outskirts Of civilization In Aus
tralia, and whose past Is bewilder-
ing mystery not less to the student OF
language than to the student Of man,
use proverbial expressions which
make one stare in wonder. Whence
have these british creatures de-
seconded, that they also should have
the wisdom Of the ancieiits on the tip
Of their tongue? These black fellows

far higher intelligence, and, in truth.

traces Of lost religion and forgotten
arts that here and there are still
found among them.-The Nineteenth
