An enthusiast on the subject of mush-
rooms says there Is no more reason
to mistake good mushroom for a
poisonous toadstool than to confound
nightshade with huckleberries. The
distinctions are clear and simple and
easily learned. Real mushrooms are
known by their beautiful pink gills,
not reaching the stem, which stem car

the firm, white flesh, sometimes in
clined to pink when cut or broken.
One or two rules In regard to gathering
mushrooms, we are told, will remove
all the peril from the pursuit of them.
Examine carefully every specimen You
gather. If at all doubtful. throw 1t
away. Show It to somebody that
knows. Never cook mushrooms un-
less you know they are gathered by
somebody that knows.

II once heard Mr.. Lincoln defend q

President Stevenson told the writer.
'srhere was pretty clear case against
the accused, but when the chief wit

stated that his name was ]. Parker

And so on. OF course the whole exam

II eeeans TO BE Cross Between the
HOrse. Cow and Deer.
Did you ever hear OF a horned horse?
1t is called the gnu and Is q native Of
South Africa. The gnu Is a puzzle.
We have called 1t horse, but 1t is
more ike q COW. 1T really seems to be
d cross between the horse. the COW and
the deer. It has the head and horns
of d COW, the tail, the name and with
ers OF the horse and the legs Of deer.
Altogether the gnu Is one Of the most
singular creatures on earth.
The gnu inhabits the billy districts
Of South Africa. roaming all over the
country In vast herds. AS far ais trav-
elers have vet penetrated it is found.
and 1t liz fortunate that 1t is SO. FOR the
fiesh OF the gnu forms excellent food.
They are, however, extremely wild,
and, being very quick in their move
ments. are difficu!t to shoot Upon the
first alarm the whole herd scamper
away in single file, following leader.
When seen from a distance they look
like a troop OF horses.
Their speed Is very great, and when
first disturbed they do not exert 1T. but
kick out their heels and begin butting
at anything that comes la their way,
exhibiting the greatest fury. Unless
hard pressed they seldom show fight.
but when brought to bay they will de-
fend themselves desperately. They
dart forward upon their enemy with
great fury. and unless he remains cool
and collected be probably will not es-
cape.
