sThe Grape Of Brazil"

A notable feature of gardens within
a certain area about Rio de Janeiro is
the iaboticaba tree. The delicious fruit
Is often known as "the grape of Bra
ziI' on account of it's appearance, and,
as described in bulletin of the United
States department of agriculture is
conspicuous from it's peculiar habit OF
growing directly upon the bark, not
only of the small limbs but even OF
the trunk and exposed roots. The tree,
growing to a height of IS to 40 feet
branches freely close to the ground,
spreading into symmetrical leafy top
of great beauty. The flowers, produced
singly and in clusters, often cover the
entire bark above the ground. The
fruit develops rapidly to diameter OF
half an inch to an inch and half, has
a deep maroon-purple color, is covered
with a thick, rather tough skin charged
with coloring matter and much tannin,
and contains the translucent juicy
pulp, having an agreeable vinous ia
ivor suggestive of the Muscatine grape.
One to four fattened oval seeds, g.
euarter Of an inch long, are inclosed
In this pulp. The fruit tempts one to
eat indefinitely, the complaint being
that it Is impossible to satisfy ones
appetite on jaboticabas.

ment of the United States Volunteer
Life-Savers. These tests, which are
taken by many of the older girls in

'In. order to pass the tests you must
know at least three different holds
which drowning person would be
likely to make while struggling and
how to break them. You must also
be able to dive to the bottom and

proved methods of carrying, as, for ex-

an approved method of resuscitation,
usually the Schaeffer method, which
requires only one person to apply it.
The first thing on reaching shore Is
to empty the water from the lungs
which, by the way, is never more than
two or three teaspoonfuls in amount
and induce breathing by pressure on
the ribs. If you have ever been called
upon to be the victim for someone's
practice you will understand why it
is still question in some camps which
form of death is to be preferred; life
saving or mere drowning?"

Queer Sort Of Butter.

A queer sort Of butter Is obtained in
Trinidad, where cows and cream are
scarce. This butter is the toiied-down
fat Of q bird called the suacharo. The
Illustrated World says that this bird
lives in the darkest caves, and seldom
Is seen in the daylight. The young
birds are extremely plump and from
them is obtained rich fat, the natives
very good substitute for butter. The
birds are taken from their nests when
two or three weeks old. After they
are killed, they are put on to boil, not
In water, but in their own fat. The
natives experience some difficulty in
getting at the nests of the guacharo,
for they must creep through caves and
y ade through stagnant pools to reach
their prey. The full-grown guacharo is
so tinid that no one ever has been able
to photograph living specimen.
