CUNNING FOR BUTTERFLIES.
Shooting Them with Rife Loaded With
Dust Shot or Water.

Dust 6hOe or water.
All, no doubt, are familiar with the
usual methods and paraphernalia
wherewith butterflies are captured and
preserved; the man with the gauze net,
poison bottle, cork-lined box, folded
paper envelopes, wire pins, and sundries
ad hbitum, long ago ceased to be
curiosity in civilized lands.
But there are some unusual methods
and implements, description of which
viii be likely to prove of interest
Prominent among them is cunning
for butterflies, an expedient that is
most useful where tropic vegetation in
duces high fight, and renders, by reason
Of its density, all chance of pursuit i'm
possible. For this small bore gun or
rife is best, and dust shot, such as is
used by humming bird hunters on the
Amazon, or a water load, is best. ANY
shot coarser than dust shot will prove
too heavy and will ruin the specimen
for sale by tearing the wings. A gun
that will scatter the dust widely should
be selected, says a writer in Gold
thwaite's Geographical Magazine, and
even then few shot punched may tear
off head or an abdomen and ruin the
prize.
My own preference is for rifle firing
a 32-caiber, long cartridge, loaded with
water. These cartridges can be OBJ
tanned with an extra heavy charge of
powder and without the ball in them.
Before loading they should be smeared
inside with melted paraffine applied
with camel's hair brush; this prevents
the water load from moistening the
powder. But even with this precaution
it is best to load only SO many shells as
are likely to be used during the day,
and the water should be emptied from
those that are left over at night.
After filing the shell with water up
to within a thirty-second of an inch
from the rim tight-fitting oiled wad
can be forced down and light coat of
parafine be applied on top with the
brush. I have tried water thickened
with starch, with gum arabic, and with
gum tragacanth, but have never been
able to see that anything has been
gained by thus rendering the charge
somewhat more self-adherent The
water load is much more sure to bring
your prize ito grass" and is not nearly
SO liable to tear and denude the wings.
The dust-shot will often cause large
specimen to defect its course and by
unmistakable signs show that it has
been hit. yet will not bring it down.

OLD BURIAL CUSTOMS.
The Way Funerals Are Conducted by
Different Races.

The Way Funerals Are Conducted by
Different Races.
The Mohammedans always, whether
in their own country or one of adop-
ton. bury without coffin or caSket of
any kind.
The Greeks sometimes buried their
dead in the ground, but more generally
cremated them, in imitation of the
Romans.
In India, up to within the last few
years, either according to her wishes or
otherwise, was cremated on the same
funeral pyre that converted her hus-
bands remains into ashes.
When child dies in Greenland. says
the Chicago Mail, the natives bury a
live dog with it, the dog to be used by
the child as a guide to the other world.
When questioned in regard to this Pc
culiar superstition, they will answer:
"a dog can find his way anywhere"
The natives of Australia tie the hands
of their dead together and pull out the
nails; this is for fear that the corpse
may scratch its way out of the grave
and become vampire.
The primitive Russians place a certif-
cate of character in the dead persons
hands, which is to be given to St. Peter
at the gates of Heaven.
