A P,LL-MAklNe CRAB.
The Queer Habits OF an Interesting Littlo
Creature.


Tho Queer Habits OF an Interesting Iittlo
Creature.
Mr.. Collingwood, in his ''Rambles of
q Naturalist" gives IN entertaining ac-
count of these tiny creatures, which
are mostly of about the size Of pea,
though few are as large as filberts.
He found them abundant on the shores
of the Malay peninsula, his attention
being first called to them by seeing the
beach, after the going down of the tide,
covered with loose powdcry sand and
holes of various sizes. Looking more
closely. he discovered that little radi-
ating paths converged among the litter
of sand to each hole. and that the sand
itself was in minute balls.
The instant approached n peculiar
twinl1ling in the sand was visible,
which required quick eye to recog-
nizc as the simultaneous and rapid re-
treat of n multitude of tiny crabs into
their holes, not a single one remaining
visible.
KneelinR down and remaining mo-
tionless for a few minutes, noticed n
slight evanesccnt appearance, like
flash or n bursting bubble, which the
eye could scarcely follow. This was
produced by one or more of the crabs
coming to the surface and instantly
darting down again, alarmed by my
proximity. 1t was only by waiting like
statue that l could induce them to
come out and set to work.
Coming cautiously to the mouth of
the hole, the crab waited to recon-
hotter, and if satisfied that no enemy
was near. it would venture about it's
own length from its lurking place; then
rapidly taking up PARTICLES of sand in
its claws, it deposited them in groove
beneath the th0raX.
AS it did so little ball of sand was
rapidly projected as through it's mouth.
This it seized with one claw and dc
posted ON one side, proceeding in this
manner until the smooth beach was
covered with little pellets, or pills, cor
responding in size to its own dimcn-
sions. 1t was evidently its method of
extracting PARTICLES of food from the
sand.
made many attempts to catch one

two specimens, which immediately
curlcd themselves up and frignCa death.
put one of them on the sand to see
what it would do. At first it did not
attempt to move; but after little, 10y
n twisting and wriggling movement. it
rapidly sunk into the sand and disap-
| peared.
The other one I put int hole which
already contained crab; but no vi;i: lc
result followed. then attempted to
dig it up again, but in vain. / dur MP

at the soft, wet sand underneath, never
succeeded in procuring n pill-mal1ing
crab by digging it ont.

WhitewaSh Is Too Thin.

The Appeal praises Assemblyman
German for his stand in forcing "a
sixty days Sc ssion Of the Legislature
and tries to throw the blame on to
those who opposed the outrageous
scheme. Those who have watched
the proceedings of the Assembly will
not be fooled by anything the Appeal
may say. German, Of Eureka, and
Denton, Of Lincoln, are in the dirty
puddle up to their necks and no
amount of blarney by the Appeal can
pull them out. Both favored the dirty
job to slice up Washoe county on
Which SO much time was wasie,I
Thor have made their record and all
the whitewash the Appeal may use
will not blot it out. 1t is too thin.

Rocking CDhafrs for Indigestion

aeoCkAAhB Suahf0 hOr QneRARCHG1On
A not unpleasant remedy for in.
digestion is suggested by medi.
cal authority. He declares that
by resortlng to q slow and regula,
rocking motion after meals CASTRO.
intestinal peristaltls (the worm.
like motion of the intestine wher
aiding tho digestion of their con.
tents) is stimulated, and persons
whose digestive functions are hab.
itually sluggish thereby experience
marked relief. He especially re.
commends this measure in cases
where there is any want of tone of
the stomach. The rocking chair
should be SO constructed as to be
set in the motion without much
effort, and tho inclination of the
axis should be sufficient to place
the patient in an almost horizon
tai position.
