Auntinn Truffles III snort.

Quite apart from the interest of
fungi to the naturalist the temptation
cannot here be resisted to refer to a
method of procuring one kind Of fun
gus, which might take rank among the
minor sports. This is the fashion,
originating in France. Of procuring the
trufie by the aid Of swine and hounds.
More I'll assorted sporting companions
can hardly be imagined. The trufile
grows underground. Pigs are partic-
ularIy fond of these delicacies and.
guided by the scent. will discover
them by roofing in the earth. After
the discovery Of the trufiies the dogs
are employed to beat back the pigs
and prevent them from devouring the
spoil. And every quality dear TO the
sportsman Of skill and judgment is
needed to control and obtain the de-
sired result from the efforts of a herd
Of swine and pack of hounds.-Lon-
don Outlook.

Habits Of Seals.

The habits of seals are very interest
ing. The very young seal is helpless
In the water until he is taught by his
mother to swim. She takes him into
the water daily on her fin and dumps
him in and when he gets tired Of
fioundering about places him on her
fin again and returns to her camp.
When the young seals are well grown
they suddenly disappear with their
mothers and the bull seals. No one
knows where they go. and their return
Is equally as sudden as their departure.
The bulls are the first to put in an
appearance at the camping ground.
When they arrive they commence at
once to prepare a camp for their mates,
which they stake of aud for which
they fight until they die. In the mean
time the female seals remain quite a
distance from land. floating lazily on
the water and seemingly having a
good time.

Coyote and JACK Rabbi.

The speed Of the jack rabbit has al
ways been proverbial among western
men. like the speed Of coyote In a
straightaway race 1t is claimed that
the jack rabbit can distance the coyote,
but he usually falls a victim to the
coyotes superior intelligence. The IA
vorite coyote method for catching jack
rabbits is for one OF the animals to
start jack and attend to the work Of
keeping the victim on the run, while
the other coyote sits down, patiently
awaiting the arrival Of his dinner.
The jack rabbit when he has free
range will run In circles. and the
coyotes cleverly count on this habit.
Before long the rabbit win arrive at
the place from which he started, and
there coyote No, 2. fresh and ready
for short sprint. viii swoop down
upon him aud then divide tire meal
with the coyote that has done the ac-
tual chasing. New York Press.

Ant eaters are In the curious posi-
ton Of being practically unable to open
their mouths. 1t may almost be said.
indeed. that they have no mouths TO
open. There is just a small, round
orifice at the end Of the snOut. through
which about two feet Of wormlike
tongue can wriggle out. and as this
tongue is bathed with liquid glue In
stead of saliva every ant which 1t
touches adheres to 1t, and the animal
ticks the insects up by hundreds at n
time
