naughty airs Of that Milkweed."
But one day while the CAttails watched
they saw beautiful yellow worm with
black stripes around its body crawling on
the Milkweed and again they were filled
with envy.
''Oh how handsome that would look
on our brown coatsl" said one. why
docs he stay up there with that rough
weed when we are close by with our soft
brown coats2"
But the worm, because he was q milk
weed worm, stayed right where he WAS
happy and the Cattails grew Jealous again.
There WAS one more sorrow IN store
for them when one morning the Milk
week pod burst and out sailed the soft,
silvery, hossy substance with which the
pod was filed floating away with the
seeds attached.
ooh, oh!' cried the Cattails, for they
could not help admiring the beautiful
sailing floss as il flew away
81 am sure we are filed with some
thing much finer and hsndsomcr," said
one. II that rough-looking pod held
such soft hoxs l am sure we will find
our beautiful brown plush coats hold
something of greater beauty
And then the jealous Cotta'ls just
burst with envy, and IA there WAS moth
ing inside their pretty brown coats to
float away like the Milkweed floss they
fell on the ground and withcrcd.

EXPLORER TO SEARCH
EGYPT; TELLS OF TRIP
IN SOUTH AMERICA

fBy Associated Press)
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 21.-Despite
the terrors through which he passed
while journeying through the wilds of
South America, DR.. Alexander Hamil-
ton Rice, explorer, plans soon to
leave for Egypt in an endeavor to To-
cate certain species of goat which is
invaluable in medical research work.
He expressed this intention in an ad-
dress on South America before the
Geographical society here.
DR.. Rice said his trip through South
America took him up the Rio Negro,
the largest tributary of the Amazon.
through a natural canal more than 200
mffes long connecting it with the ORR
noco into hitherto unexplored por-
tons of Brazil. 1t was here that he
came in actual contact with Guahari-
hos, virtually unknown tribe of Can.
nibal Indians, who for II days pur-
sued his party in an effort to cut off
their return.
Indians Attack at Night.
The attack occurred in a wild spot
DR.. Rice had made camp the night be,
fore. Two of his Indian guides had
gone up the river in a canoe to test
the depth of the water, when they saw
something moving along the banks.
"A few moments after the guides
return" DR.. Rice said. 1.-The entire
bank was literally lined with wildly
shrieking and gesticulating figures
who brandished bows about seven feet
high, with arrows six feet long. Just
opposite me l saw one huge size crea
ture, evidently the chief or leader, who
was shouting and foaming at the
mouth and making motions that ap
rarently meant to express anticipation
of a hearty meal that night. He was
neither negro nor Indian, and he had
black hairs on his upper lip-a thing
/ have never seen on an Indian.
Eve tried talking to them in every
language and dialect at our command
Escape in Canoes.
Finally when one of their arrows
landed just at my feet, I decided il
was time to do something, and we
fired the Winchester rifle and Parker
