vampires rot BIoodsuckers.

Mr. James Rhen, who Is engaged in a
special study of bats, says that it Is a
fallacy that the vampire is a blood
sucker. Travellers and story writers
are responsible for the story of the ter
rible bloodsucking vampire bats Of
South America. Nearly all general
writers on this subject agree with
them as to its criminal record, and they
all concur in laying the blame on a
large grotesque looking bat with an
enormous leaf nose. the Vampyrus
spectrum. This bat Is common in
South and Central America and, from
his great size, being about two feet
across the outspread wings, Is n sug-
gestive and repulsive enough object TO
impute the blood loving habit to.
AS a matter of fact, this is some
what useful animal and is totally inno-
cent OF these charge, the bloodsuck-
ers being two much smaller and rarer
bats. The front teeth Of these two lat
ter are enormous lancets occupying
over half the tooth row of the animals
and possessing very sharp edges, which
can easily penetrate the human skin.
The teeth of the big vampire. on the
other hand, are simply adapted for a
diet Of insects and fruit. The true
bloodsucklng bats are much rarer than
the vamplre.--Phlladelphia Record.

Lake That Eats 9oats.

A strange lake exists In the center Of
Sulphur island off New Zealand. 1t is
so acres in extent. about II feet in
depth and 10 feet above the level of the
sea.
The most remarkable characteristic
of this lake is that the water contains
vast quantities of hydrochloric and sui
phuric acids kissing and bubbling at a
temperature of 40 degrees f.
The dark green colored water looks
particularly unlnv!ting. Dense clouds
of sulphurlc fumes constantly roll off
this boiling caldron, and care has to be
exercised In approaching this lake to
avoid the risk of suffocation. On the
opposite side of the lake may be seen
the tremendous blowholes, which,
when In full blast, present an awe In
spring sight
The roar of the steam as ii rushes
forth into the air Is deafening, and
often huge powders and stones are
hurled out to a height of several hun
dred feet by the various internal forces
Of nature.
and If proper care be observed the very
edges of the blowholes may be safely
explored.
Some idea of the strength Of the acid
saturated water of this lake may be
gathered from the fact that boat al
most dropped to pieces after all the
passengers had been landed, as the
n L.
of the acids.
