of Louis Philippe of France on the

Nice Tint subsist on scorpions.

Among the queer forms of animal life
that inhabit Death valley is a mouse
that has acquired such a taste for scor-
pions that they form its entire bill of
fare. The scorpion carries its formula
BILE armament in the end of its slender,
elongated abdomen in the shape of an
exceedingly vonomous hooked sting.
When disturbed 1t ~elevates this in the
air and goes in search Of its disturber.
But 1t is comparatively slow in its mo-
tons, while mice are proverbial for
their quickness the world over. The
mouse learned many generations ago
where the scorpion carries its weapon,
and when he meets it he leaps at the
uplifted abdomen. takes off the sting at
a single bite and proceeds to make a
meal of his helpless prey. 1t is sup
posed TO be the only animal that rel

Arabian

In a recent Egyptian review may be
found some curious extracts from Al
Diahez, Il celebrated scientist of the
tenth century. Speaking of the ia
vorite dishes of the Arabians of that
epoch, he says that they considered
the flesh of young dogs II great deli
cacy and also ate grasshoppers and
scorpions with much relish. Moreover,
they esteemed the flesh of black cats
highly. since they maintained that any
one who ate it could not be injured
either by sorcery or by the evil eye.
Al Djahez also says that he was dis
appointed when he found that the
Arabian tribes of Bassorah did not eat
g~rasshoppers, but, on the other hand,
was highly delighted TO find his friend,
the famous poet Roobah, feasting roy
ally on roast rats and lizards. The
Arabians, he says in conclusion, also
ate serpents and horses, but took the
utmost care only TO serve at table
horses which had been harnessed, as
they did not consider it right to eat
those which had been ridden.

Of Jonathan Edwards gives figures
which prove Il liberal consumption of
fuel in the household of the great theo-
Logan. In the winter of 1740-41 the
town of Northampton supplied the Ed

loads of wood. In the next season
eighty-two loads were delivered. For
the succeeding winter the total was
seventy-e eight, and a year afterward the
astonishing quantity Of nlnety-iye
