Poison Proof Animals.

Neither differences Of organization in
animals nor in the constitution of the
poisonous substance generally afford
any clew for interpreting an exception
al want Of effect. Unaccountable is
the immunity of rabbits against bella
Gonna leaves (Atropa belladonna, dead
~ nightshade). You may feed them
with belladonna for weeks without OBJ
serving the least toxic symptoms. The
meat of such animals, however, proves
poisonous to any one who eats it, pro-
ducing the same symptoms as the
plant. .:.>-. :-..:H.7 - @.sz*$rss
Pigeons and various other herbivora
are also to some degree safe from the
effects Of this poison, while In warm
blooded. carnivora it causes paralysis
and asphyxia. In frogs the effect
is different one, consisting Of spasms.
The meat of goats which had fed on
hemlock has sometimes occasioned
poisonous effects. Chickens are near
ly hardy against nux vomica ana the
extremely dangerous alkaloid, strych-
nine, contained q in it, while In the
smallest amount it is a: fatal poison to
rodents. ;y7is ;r s$S@si -: H. 5.,.s
More remarkable vet in this respect
is the immunity Of Cholnpus hoffman,
nj, a kind Of sloth living on the island
Of Ceylon, which, when given ten
grains Of strychnine, was not much at
fected. Pigeons are possessed Of high
immunity from morphine, the chief al
kaloid Of opium, as well as from BELLA
donna. Blight grains were required to
kill a pigeon, not much less than the
mortal. dose for q man. i Cats are ex-
tremely sensitive to foxgloye Digitalis
purpurea), which on the contrary may
be given to rabbits and various birds
in pretty large doses. NH s.s.s< g; ] u .,t8

Some Queer Rats.

Los Angeles Herald: In ex-
ploring the Black Canon of the
Gunnison, in Colorado, a party
of hardy aduenturers recently
found several strange and
scarcely known animals living
in the perpetual gloom Of that
frightful gorge.
One OF the most curious Of the
little animals discovered is the
kangaroo mouse. This fellow
is highly disreputable mem
Der of the rodent family The
kangaroo mouse can stand on
his hind feet and makes
passes" at the intruder much
in the manner Of the pugilist.
He is cunning little rogue and
has a voracious appetite.
Another member of the rodent
family is the pack rat, akin to
the common house rat He is Il
born theft. He carries away
spoons, knives, forks a d other
articles from the camps Of trav.
elers. That is how he got his
name,
The jumping mouse was also
found in the Black Canon.
This freak is said to be a long
distance jumper that would put
the jumping frog of Calaveras
'county-even without his dinner
a shot-in the shade. The
jumping mouse of the Black
is SO light that his fail is much
like that of feather, and he
can leap from high crags with
out injury to his anatomy.
