he is brought TO wonder If the country
is really a desert or only a land to
which man is not adapted. For here
are animals which never drink, yet
frisk about through thorns and cac-
tus and fatten on the bitter plants.
Many a desert prospector has laid
down with his burro to die and seen on
the rocks abouthim the black heads of
Chuck-walla lizards outlined against
the brazen sky. The Chuck-wallas
were happy and corpuIent with good
eating. 1t was their country. For
thousands of generations their ances-
tors had never thirsted for water; and
plants which the starving burros
passed by furnished both food and
drink for the scaly natives on the
rocks. Next to the slow moving deadly
Gila monster, the Chuck-walla is the
largest lizard of the desert, being
from a foot to foot and a half in

How Familiarity with the Chinese

q CnunteaA.

One of the unmarried women in dip
lomatic circles at Washington is
Countess Marguerite Cassini, the ac-
complished niece of the Russian am
bassador, who is a countess in her
own right, not by heredity, but by spe-
cial grace of the car, and curious
story is told of the manner in which
she won her title. Il was when Count
Cassini had his fateful conference with
III Hung Chang at Peking, long before
the Boxer trouble. The counts inter
prefer was away, for Lis call was un-
expected, and as the Chinese states
man could not speak Russian and the
Russian diplomat did not understand
Chinese the conference came to a
deadlock The counts niece. who had
picked up something of the language,
stepped into the breach and the affair
was arranged to the satisfaction Of
both parties. The Chinese empress
loaded her with presents, the cars
government made a note of the service
performed, and when there was a
question a couple of years ago of the
young lady's precedence al Washing
ton, where the count was then ambas-
sador. the car himself counfounded
her rivals by making her countess.
