Rurylna a Water supply.

Most rodents are provldent creatures
and store a supply of food for winter
use. The Egyptian Jerbon, which Ia
a kind of jumping mouse, ls quite as
thrifty as the rest of Its race, but II
is singular In this-that 1t stores up
not food, but water. The jerboa is
found most generally in arid regions.
in which the dry season lasts six
months, during which time not even
drop OF dew falls. In these places.
however, there grows, just at the close
of the rainy season, a bitter but ex-
tremely juicy melon. As soon as 1t Is
ripe the jerboa gnaws through its
stem, digs away the earth beneath II
and lets it drop into the hole thus
formed. The wind soon covers 1t with
sand, which not only conceals 1t, but
also protects 1t from the heat. On thu
coming of the drought the Jerboa seeks
out one after another Of these natural
water barrels and Stakes its thirst at
them until the rainy season sets in
once more. AS the jerboa lays up a
supply Of from forty to fifty melons,
there is no danger of its store Of water

Not many years ago the highways Of
Mexico and especially that Of Guadal-

usually stopped all travellers whom
they met. Whenever conveyance en-.

the victim of the brigands had taken
them to use as a substitute for his
own garments Of which he had been

Goldsmith was ludicrously fond of
snowy clothes. When he sought to
take orders In Ireland he tried to daz-
gle his bishop by pair of scarlet
breeches. While studying medicine In
Edinburgh he wore "rich sky blue
SATIN" "flne sky blue shalloon" and
silver hat lace. Before johnson, Rey'
nolds and Garrick he strutted about
Dragging Of his bloom colored coat,
and when his reputation had been
made by his two principal poems he
blazed forth in purple silk small
clothes, n scarlet greatcoat and a ply
siclan's wig. He carried n gold head
ed cane, and sword hung by his side,
a weapon so disproportioned to his
diminutive stature that coxcomb who
passed him In the Strand called out to
his companion to look at that fly with
a long pin stuck through It."
