I felt sorry fol the poor beast that had so successfully hidden and protected its offspring and for the obedient little calf itself that had so faithfully followed it's mother After despatehing the mother l ex- pected that would have little trouble in capturing the calf, but to surprise the strick- en little beast stood still and allowed us to come right up to 1t. But when picked it from the ground 1t struggled violently that we could hardly hold 1t. My companion took upon himself the task of carrying capture and 1t was really amusing to observe how when Joe least expected, the calf, without warning, would summon all it's strength of limb and tongue in effort to free itself almost bringing him to the ground

BIRD WITH HANDS

The hoatzin, native of British Guiana is de scribed as bird with hands. And the pecuarity of it's structure which leads to this description Is the young
 The nest of the hoatzin is placed In tree over hanging the water and the young. unlike most birds matched In such position. active from the first And the claws at the ends of the wings are used to assist 1t In climbing the trees, which 1t does with great dexterity in it's early days.
 The growth of the outermost quill feathers Of the wing, which might hamper the free use of the claws is retarded till the rest of the wing is de- veloped sufficiently to render climbing less neces- sary. Then they grow, and the claws are ob- sorbed and disappear. The adult bird does not require them Should young hoatzin fall into the water 1t makes for the shore and seizes branch, up which it quickly climbs.
 It has been pointed out that the young of game birds show evidence of having formerly possessed similar structures the wings. It Is therefore inferred that they had a similar habit and that in former times they built and reared their young In trees.
 In this group-including the barn door fowl the quill feathers of the wing are still developed in the order in the hoatzin, that is the outer delayed until the others have reached certain stage. Traces of the free claws, moreover, still be found in the embryo. And 1t Is interesting in this connection to remember that even the pheasant occasionally builds and matches It's young in tree.

ARoLIsHEs UNslGHTi.Y HANDS

In all the many and varied rewards of diligence none are better worth while than those that wait upon dil- 1 igent paper bag cooking. Ease is one of them, deftness another, neat ness in the kitchen still third. It | is quite impossible to make mere words convey all that this method of cookery means-still more impos- sible to set down all that it's use will teach you.
 For example, It's use will teach you how little art can improve on nature in matter of flavors. Paper bag cook | ing keeps in the flavor, intensifies it, and makes it the sauce of appetite. Good digestion commonly waits on | appetite.
 , But there are other things to take | into account. Not the least of them is the saving to ones hands and ones temper in the matter of washing up after a meal.
 Whether this falls to the cook, to her mistress, or haply, to the gallant man of the house, who thrusts him. self helpfully into the toughest part of the work, the fact remains indis- putable that pan scrubbing is hard work distasteful in the extreme and bound to leave unpleasant reminders. Pots and pans mean the use of strong alkalies. Without them the pots can not be kept sanitary. No sort of glove yet devised will permit the free use possible to the bare hand. The syl- logism r1ns about thus wise: To cook in the old way, you must have pots, the pots must be kept clean, or else be constant menace, and to keep them clean requires detergents so powerful they will destroy human cuticle the same as they "cut grease" Result, rough, reddened, painful hands. in spite of emollients, glove-wearing and SO on. The most careful mani curing will not undo the effect of steady pot-washing.
 Baked Blue Fish.-Cut off head and tail, wash clean, wipe with soft, damp cloth, stuff with soft bread crumb stuflng, else lay sliced pota- i toes inside. with a seasoning of but ter. pepper, salt and onion, and tie up securely. Rub all over outside with soft butter or dripping, sprinkle with salt, put in a greased bag, with a small lump of fat and 2 very little cold water. Seal bag and cook in a 1 hot oven twenty to forty minutes, according to weight. Serve with sliced lemon and garnish with par sley. A squeeze of lemon juice in the l tac tYY1n | ment.

of tart apple. wrapped them in thin broad bacon secs, and put them in their bag. Since they needed no water, the bag could stand little while un- harmed. I improved the idle minute by slipping into my company frock. Safely buttoned up, I went back to work The corn pudding was done so were the peppers-they had been in the oven about eighteen minutes. All the bags were set in pans down under the oven, protected from the flame by the broiler pan, inverted.
 The squab bag now went on the upper oven shelf because I knew they were better If cooked quickly. I left the heat on full for ten minutes, then slacked 1t little more than hal., Ad interim, I had been preparing the canteloupe, taking out the seed, mak- ing tiny cuts in the flesh and sprink- ling lightly with sugar, then pouring gently around the inside of each a spoonful of yellow chartreuse. An experiment, this, but one that I shall repeat-it evoked such enthusiasm.
 People began coming before the last melon was finished. They trouped in- to the kitchen, snifling cheerfully. The dishes sat ready-in a trice, I had out the bags of vegetables. Mur- murs of admiration greeted what each of them revealed, and the murmurs swelled to chorus triumphant when at last the squabs lay plump, juicy, most delicately Drowned in their al- lotted platter.
 Luncheon speedily followed the us- ual course. We ate the fat, drank the sweet, and found all things good. This say, not vainglory, but in due need to paper bag cookery. The only man said, looking up from his plate at last T never really tasted squab be- fore"
 And when the luncheon was over the washing up was greatly shortened by the fact of no pans.

The most interesting point, perhaps in connec- ton with the free claws of the hoatzin is that they recall the remarkable structure of the earl fest birds yet known to geology. Archaeopterpyx.

This most ancient bird resembled hoatzin in hav- ing free claws to it's wings, and perhaps, like 1t. used them in climbing. But while the hoatzn dis carded its claws in adult life archaepopterpyx seems to have retained them.-London Globe

Disease That for a Time Baffied Med icaI Research Can Be Oone

A baff1ing ailment found among workmen engaged in the manufacture
 of shuttles in Lancashire and York shire, England, has led to the belief that the timber used possessed some property injurious to health, and that the sickness was due to some poison
 given off by the wood. The symptoms complained of were headache. sleepi- ness, running at the nose and eyes, chronic sneezing. giddiness. faintness. loss of appetite, shortness of breath, nausea, etc." The patients exhibited a pale, yellowish or greenish color of the skin, accompanied by a peculiar "camphor" or Turkey rhubarb" odor from the breath and skin- Inquiry showed that various woods have been used for shuttles. namely.

This poison is very sol uble and probably easily absorbed.
 Further examination disclosed the fact that the wood variously termed West African or East London box wood Is not "boxwood," but belongs to a poisonous order of tropical plants.

muskox is considerable and 1t is only very well placed single bullet, of large calber, that will bring down an adult beast. The muskox mas a slightly musky smell, which is sometimes said to be prevalent in the flesh as to render N decidedly objectionable. This musky taint IS en- tirely eliminated by dressing the animal as soon it has been killed. for any carcass, if not so treated will assume an objectionable flavor, which is caused chiefly by the presence of gases in the stomach which should have been removed. Personally I always managed to do justice to muskox flesh, which I consider in flavor and ten derness far superior to beef. The call of the young muskox calf to its mother is much like that of the young domesticated calf, but it Is decid- edly pleasing in tone. The below of the adult is of much shorter duration than that of the domestcated and is seldom uttered by the animal. Like all other wild mothers the mother muskox is devout mother, and when a herd stands at bay, you may look in vain to find calf, for they have been huddled from sight in the long, hanging fur of the that will stand to the last to protect them
 Towards the coming of summer, the large herds generally break up and the bulls in particu- lar wander singly along the coast, relishing the luxury and abundance of the short season which so soon and so abruptly shall come to an docile during this season in particular.
