permitted by majority of the peo-

The first domesticated mammal seems
to have been the dog. In the Swiss So
ciety of Natural History last year Pro-
fessor Studer read paper on ancient
European dogs The Oldest variety was
the SO called peat dog. It belongs to the
neolithic period. There were four other
varieties known in the bronze period
and in that of the lake dwellings. Di-
rect descendants of these are the Ger
man hunting hounds, the shepherd dog
and the poodle.
In America there is little evidence
that any dog was trained for hunting
In the far north the Eskimo dog was a
beast of draft, the only one known to
the red race. The dogs of Mexico and
Central America seem to have been
principally raised for food or ceremonial
sacrifices. lii Peru there were several
varieties under domestication, two OF
which have been clearly distinguished
1t is noteworthy that although in
many American tribes the dog was a
sacred or mythical animal in the le-
gends he was not regarded with affec-
tion, but with dislike and aversion, a
fact strongly brought out by Won Tschu-
DID. G. Brinton in Science.

Australian Oysters.

The Australian mollusk is of two
kinds-the mud oyster and the rock
oyster. The former grows to larger
size, but the rock oyster is more gen.
orally esteemed for flavor. Their names
indicate their place of growth. The rock
oysters love the beds and adjoining
rocks of tidal streams. They grow in
clusters, in variety of shapes and sizes,
and each cluster is attached to some
thing solid. Here they are alternate
ly bathed in salt water and in fresh or
brackish They are also left for hours
high and dry until the incoming tide
refreshes them. Nor do these oysters al
