The Timid Cannibals of Papua.

Henry G. Everill has an article on the
natives of Papua, or New Guinea, IN the
San Francisco Chronicle, from which we
make this extract:
Another way to communicate with
timid natives was by anchoring off their
villages or temporary camps aud making
all sorts of friendly overtures to them.
After some time they would perhaps get
into their canoes and paddle about,
keeping at a very respectful distance from
us. | would then take some trade into
the boat and have her Stacked away by
good rope until she was 400 or 500 feet
astern, taking the precaution to have
three or four of my party covering the
boat with their rifles to guard against
treachery. | would then from the boat
hold up presents and make signs until
some of them ventured near enough to
take or rather snatch the presents
from my hand, when they would scuttlc
away, generally returning with more
confidence, until we started trade and
negotiated exchanges.
Sometimes, when all othe- overtures
failed, we would overcome their shyness
or diffidence by tying pieces of red cloth
and flannel to sticks of wood, and throw
ing them into the water for the canoes
to pick up. This invariably succeeded,
for after arousing their cupidity we
would stop throwing presents into the
water and wait until they came along
ciln No nj fnpl- +, al
any boats to come near with arms. The
party was kept on the qui vive during
this trading, for on some occasions, one
notably, the cunning Papuans attempted
surprise, and when that failed 200
canoes, filled with men, arranged them
selves ahead and astern, and on both sides
of the vessel. Brandishing their weapons,
they commenced the war song and dance,
waiting for the chief to give the signal
CT attack All hands were stationed
under cover and the rifles were aimed,
but was very reluctant to fire on them,
and watching my opportunity, just as
their bowstrings were about to twang |
gave a series of unearthly blasts from a
steam siren which had been fitted up ex-
pressly for that purpose. The effect was
magical. In less than minute the
scene had changed. Many canoes were
boating about empty, their curly headed
crews swimming to land in every dircc-
ton, other canoes padding away as fast
as their frightened occupants could make
them go, while the banks were thronged
with natives making signs of friendship
and imploring us to go away.

Chinese Surgery.

Like most things in China, the
practice of surgery differs consldera-
Div from that in vogue in less en-
lightened Western countries. Bone
setting in the Celestial Empire is a
complicated affair." and doubtless
more efiicacious than European meth-
DDS. In setting a fractured llmb tne
surgeon does not attempt TO prlhg
the bones together, but merely wraps
the limb in red clay, inserting some
strips of bamboo into the clay. These
strips are swathcd in bandages, and
in the outer bandage the head OF a
live chicken is placed. Here comes in
the superior science of the Celestial;
After the bandage has been secured
the fowl is beheaded and its blood is
allowed to penetrate the fracture, Tor
il nourishes the fractured limb and is
"heap good medicine"

1t is a common practice among lions
to hunt III company. a friend of mine
in South America had a peculiar eX-
ample of this. His friend V. had
wounded buffalo, which had retreated
Within the forest. The two hunters
carefully followed the blood track, but
after short advance we're startled by a
succession OF loud roars, which be-
tokened lions close at hand.
There could be little doubt that the
wounded buffalo had been attacked.
Therefore, with proper precautlm, they
approached the spot until an exciting
scene presented itself suddenly on the
other side of large fallen tree which
happily concealed the approac of the
two hunters.
Three lions were engaged in a life
and death combat with the gaIint old
bull, who made Il desperate offence,
first knocking over one OF his ermies,
then goring another to the groudi and
exhibiting strength which appeared
sufficient to defeat the combnatid.
Suddenly the buffalo fell dead. This
was the result of the original wopd, as
the rifle bullet had passed throuh the
lungs. The lions were not awre of
this, and began to quarrel amon4hem-
selves about their imagined vtory.
One huge beast reared 20 half its bngth
and placed its fore paws upon thu body
of the PROSTATE buffalo, while the
head and hind quarters au angr hon
clutched the dead body in its sprading
paws and growled at the posseSr of
the ceutre. This formed grand IPturc
within only a few yards distanG but
two rifle shots stretched two lions rillng
upon the ground, and the third BONDED
into the thick covert and disappeari. -

The Storage of Applcs.

A room with a good draught of
air through it, and with shelves all
round the walls, made of laths OF
wood two or three inches apart, or
perforated zinc nailed on frame

of apples. DO not let them touch
each other, and if they have air all
round them. theywill be in good con

course they must have been carefully
picked by hand from the tree, the
bruised ones being used first. Some
varieties will keep three or Tour
months longer than others, and these
