fi AUNTS OF THE POLAB BEAR.

Habit of tke GrMt Animal In Its Icy Northern Homo A Hoffe One Killed. Sustenance of life forms the chief care of the Mute race of Alaska; the struggle to obtain a food supply is the absorbing thought throughout the en tire cycle of their existence, says the San Francisco Chronicle. Nature seems to have provided certain animals peculiarly adapted to the hyperborean region, and eminently fitted to afford sustenance to the race which has to withstand the exigencies and severe climatic changes of an arctic zone. The principal animals inhabiting the waters of northwestern Alaska are the various members of the seal family. Seal meat as cooked by the natives is of a dirty brick-red tint, owing to the fact that when killed the seal is simply skinned, the blood remaining in the carcass, acting as a coloring matter to the meat. To unaccustomed stomachs seal meat is unpalatable, its taste resembling fish more than flesh, while the oily odor is of course prevalent. But if, when newly caught, a seal is bled and the flesh allowed to soak for a few hours the meat, either fried or baked, becomes palatable. When frozen there is scarcely any flavor perceptible in the meat, Ursus Americanus, or the white polar bear, is also a food supplier for .the Mutes. The extent of bruin's travels in the Arctic region is far and wide. Observations by Captain Healy, of the United States Revenue Marine prove the fact that the polar bear'& southern limit of range is St. Matthew Island in the Behring Sea. I believe that a few of these bears were seen a some years ago near the Steal Islands. Probably the season was a late one, and they were seen upon a large ice floe drifting. At St Matthew the polar bears have lairs and dens among the rocky glens that diversify that island. There, it is presumed, the young bears are born, or at least a proportion of the cubs. The Point Belcher natives told me that in December, when the sun goes away entirely, the shebears make a snow house out upon the the sea ice and there give birth to their young. There is some evidence of the truth of this statement, as it is a rarfe thing to obtain the skin of a female bear shot during the winter. The Ursus Americanus feeds upon seal and walrus and dead drift whales; although disdaining to devour the blubber, the flesh is greedily consumed. A carcass upon which a bear has passed his gastronomic judgment reveals the skin and its fatty lining torn asunder, while the flesh is cut up into strips and shreds by the powerful claws and teeth One single blow of a bear's clawu alighting upon a seal's head suffices to kill him, and, dragged upon the ice, a meal is soon dispatched. The largest white bear I ever taw was shot in November, 1885. His measurements were 12 feet 2 inches from tip of tail to nose, 6 feet 3 inches girth, 15 inches across from ear to ear, and 7-inch skull, while the track of his paws measured ll inches. Generally the average measurement is 8 feet in length. In summer the hairy coat of the polar bear turns to a dingy yellow, and its pelt then becomes useless. These bears are arrant cowards, and will not attack any one unless there are two or three in company. As soon as they scent a man approaching they run away as fast as they can. There are but few records of a bear killing any native along the northwestern coast The Mutes are very partial to white-bear m6at, but the blubber they reject, and even the dogs, unless they are very hungry, turn up their noses at the oily mass. It is almost an impossibility to obtain an entire skin of any kind of bear. The Mutes throughout the territory cut off the head and claws, and either throw them into the sea or running water or else bury them in the ground. This is done to enable the hunters to kill more bears, and the idea is that if the other bears see the heads or claws of th$ir dead friends they will leave the district Brown bears frequent the mountainous regions of the arctic coast They follow the herds of deer in their summer migrations, but are seldom seen in the winter, that .season being the hibernating period. Their pelts are disposed of to the traders and whalers. The Importance of Forests. With the relatively modern development of civilization we are coming to the third state of the relation of man to forests; a stage when he finds that this tree-covering of the lands is necessary for the maintenance of those conditions of climate and timber-supply on which the utility of the earth to him in good part depends. The frontiersman, that essence of the practical man, is still a slayer of woods, and believes that he serves the god of progress by the sacrifice of the forest But, as knowledge advances, the thoughtful classes become more and more concerned as to the conditions of this earth during the centuries to come, when this swift-advancing ruin of our woods shall have been completed. Most persons will heartily agree that it is our bounden duty to

transmit the inheritance which we j

enjoy in the earth unimpaired to the generations vet to be. It is, unhappiy, impossible for us so to manage the store of utilities which the earth affords that there shall be no diminution of the supplv for the ages to come. It is probable that the supply of eoal will in good part have disappeared tyythe year 3000; and in the fourth millennial period of our era, a time less remote in the future than the birtlj of Christ in the past, the. metals now in use will have to be won with great difficulty if obtained at alL Still we may trust the advance of knowledge and skill to compensate for these losses ; solar energy may be trusted to afford heat and aluminum to take the place of iron ; and the world may be the better for the change which forced a rustless metal and a dustless fuel into use at any rate, we see that the supply of mineral resources of the earth necessary for our successors may be prolonged for a time in the future which is long beyond our power to conceive. It is otherwise with the soil-covering of the earth's surface. So far as we can see, that is the least enduring and the least replaceable of any of those features on which the lift of the earth

depends. I t is the harvest of the uges; and once lost, it cannot be supplied save by eons of time. The most serious misfortune connected with the reckless destruction of our forests arises from the loss of the soil from large areas of land, by which regions naturally fertile have been converted into deserts of irremediable sterility. Already a large part of many fertile regions have been sterilized in this fashion; and each year a larger portion of this infinitely precious heritage of life slips into the rivers and finds its way to the sea, because we have deprived it of the protecting coating of vegetation. Therefore, it is not alone on account of the surpassing intellectual interests that forests present to us, but also from the gravest reasons of economy that they deserve to be attentively studied. Professor N. S. Shahr, in Scrioner's Magazine. An Old Story. And the wise man sayeth in his wisdom, "Ha, ha!" and draweth his salary at the end of the sixth day. And he departeth forth to the wayside and gtveth to the publican that dweUeth therein five of the shekels of silver for a piece of parchment on which is written, "Received on account" And the w'se man sayeth in his soul, "It is good," and he counteth the shekels of silver and of brass that reinaineth in h'shand, sayeth in his soul, "Behold, have I not here two dollars! let us eat, drink, and bo merry before the morrow cozneth." And he goeth forth and buyeth a twenty-five-cent shave and a plug of tobacco, and treateth the publican's daughter to soda-pop, and chucketh the Pharisee's wife under the chin, and goeth to the socialists' meeting and sayeth in a loud voice: "Lo, and behold, ament I me !M and passeth a resolution condemning the rich man and consoling Lazarus, and when the cock croweth twice, sayeth, "Lo, I shall go hence unto my house!" and departeth rejoicing exceedingly. And he boweth to the hitching-post, and asketh the pump to take a horn with him as he shaketh hands therewith, and he offeretk his arm unto his neighbor's cow and asketh her if he may have the pleasure of escorting her home. And he disputeth with his neighbor's curbstone and it smoteth hifflj hip and thigh, with a mighty smote. And he goeth into the cellar and mistaketh a ham for the clock and windeth it up with a corkscrew, and hangeth his pants on a meat-hook and his hat in the butter-tub and retireth to rest on the ice-box. And in the morning his wife taketh two dollars wash money and buyeth of the fish, called of the Gentiles; bacon, and prepareth her lord's breakfast while he bindeth his head in a wet towel and watcheth the rich man afar in Abraham's bosom. John Ericsson Defying Time Captain John Ericsson, the inventor, is 84 years old. He is still living and working at his old-fashioned house at 36 Beach street iu w that was of princely mansions, but is now of tenements, all except the Captain's house. He is as active and vigorous now and apparently about as yonn to-day as when he launched the Monitor as a desperate resort to save the country from the Merrimac. He spends most of each day in his workshop, experimenting with new ideas and modeling new inventions. His whole house is a temple of the mechanic arts. Two little statuettes of half-draped women are on the mantel in the great cool parlor that runs from the street to a little green yard at the rear. They seem as though left behind by the glories that once consorted with the oldfashioned stately doorways, windows, and broad hall ox the ancient mansion, for all the other decorations in the room are' dozens of models, solar engines, propellers, steam engines, and other devices, marvels of delicate workmanship in iron and steel, each covered with a glass case to keep off the dust. The Captain's life is as regular and quiet as that of a monk. He sees few people, keeping a secretary to attend to business and callers. He rises at 7 a. m.f bathes in cold water, and takes regular exercise. At 9 he breakfasts lightly, and at 4:30 he dines. From dinner until 10 o'clock at night he works, and then for two hours longer walks or takes outdoor exercise when it is possible. He never uses tobacco or liquor, and in other respects is very regular in his habits. Life to him is a science, which he studies as eagerly, and evidently as successfully, as he doeB more material science. To the regularity of his life he attributes the strength and vigor of his years, and he sees no reason why, bar

ring accidents, he may not be good for many years and inventions yet. New York Sun. His Last Hours Pleasant. Lawyer Well, I ai;a sorry to say the Su

preme Court affirms your sentence. Assassin Got to hang, have I? Lawyer Yes, poor fellow, I fear so. Assassin 'Tis rough, and I'm having such a good time, too. Lawyer Good time? Assassin Why, of course. You can't appreciate it, never having cut a throat and been tried for it. Why, I'm a hero. The best women in the town bring me flowers and are in love with me. Lawyer Is it possible? Assassin Certainly it is. One of them asked for a lock of my hair yesterday. Sorry to disappoint her. Told her my body was sold, hair and all.

If I'd only cut another throat or two life would be a dream of bliss. p The hypnoscope invented by Oohorowies is claimed to readily disclose a person's liability to mesmeric influence or hypnotism, or the reverse. It is, says the Boston Herald, a tubular magnet, the edges of the slit being north and south poles, respectively, its armature or "keeper of soft iron closing the poles to preserve the magnetism when the instrument is not in use. To use it the armature is taken off and the forefinger thrust through the tube of the magnet, so that both poles are united through the finger itself. At the end of two minutes the magnet is drawn off and the person examined. It is asserted that about 30 per cent, of the persons examined by this method are found to have experienced some peculiar objective or subjective sensation ; some 20 per cent, an itching or pricking of the finger, as if needle-points wore entering the skin ; others a sense of coldness, or of heat and dryness.

Fo;- the one-hundred and seventy-eighth time during the last one-hundred days, I met him last Saturday, when the hnnt was " knocking everybody out of the box and making a home run," and, my curiosity getting the better of ray repugnance, I addressed him in the language of the day : "It is hot !" He moves slowly, he stopped tilowly and, without the least change in h s curiously wrinkled features, delivered himself as follows : "It is cold. Oh, so cold! No, I am not a fisherman. What is it to me that the thermometer marks one hundred and two in the shade? My heart is nothing but a lump of ice. Ergo! is my body cold. Neither am I a tramp. If there is fringe upon my trousers it has grown there of its own accord. I care not for the frivolities of life. The world in which you move is far away. This morning I entered the massive door that leads into yonder bank and there, with one foot over the sill, requested the loan of an hundred dollars. Did I shiver?

You have seen me, have you not, every day, no matter what the weather for to you there is such a thing as weather faithfully pacing about this square ? Yes, I am always here.

Nine years ago, the lGth day of this month, when the sun was high overhead and the Italians were lunching on either side ft the street from their tin dinner pails how well I 'remembei the most trivial circumstances of that awful day ! nine years ago to-day I was a proud and prosperous man; cashier in a down-town restaurant, civil, cynical, and austere, as became my position; acquainted with many, intimate with none. On that eventful day I left my checks in care of my assistant and vent forth into the busy street. I remember that a friend standing at the door as 1 come out remarked, 'It is hot' I passed on and entered a small barbershop, situated in yonder block about midway between this street and tho next and, taking my place :in the chair, was about to communicate to the barber my desire to be shaved, when without a moment's warning he ran his fingers through my hair and in a tone of commiseration and surprise, said slowly: 'Who has been trying to cut your hair?' I killed him on the spot. It was a dreadful deed, bat the aged chestnut falling on my ears w.aen my whole nervous system was under the strain of having been seventeen cents short in my cash for three days was too much I killed him then and there and a jury rendered a verdict of justifiable homicide. Since that day I have never had my hair cut, nor have I been able to tear myself away from the place of the tragedy. It is colld. I must get across the street into the sr. n.,; And he sauntered out onto the blistering, glistening, twisting pavement, cracking in the rays of a 127-degree heat, while I crept up-stairs to my seven-by-nin furnace and, snatching up my pencil, wrote a labored article on the faith cure. Commercial Traveler, Chicago. Living, After Two Bullets Had Passed Through His Stomach A party of three gentlemen were conversing at the bar of the International Hotel one day last week, when a seedylooking party entered and greeted one of the party by name. "Gentlemen," said he, "let me introduce to you my friend, who served in the war and survived in spite of the fact thai; two bullets passed through his stomach." "Indeed !w exclaimed his companions with one accord. "Why, that is simply marvelous! Will you take something?" He would, and after repeating the dose three times at the expense of the party he took his departure. "Jim," said one of the party to the gentleman who had introduced the man, 'bow is it possible that he could survive witla two bullets through his stomach?" "Oh, simple enough," was the reply; "you see, he accidentally swallowed the bullets, and they passed clean through his stomach. And the stillness that followed was only

broken by the barkeeper, who said: "Eighty cents, please." New York Evening Sun. Carl Pretzel's Philosophy. Please dot you reffle in all dor delites of domestick bliss, dot vas hubbiness.

Scattered through the several country towns and villages of Kcchester, Freetown, Lakeville, Long Plain, Acushnet, and Myrioks, is a peculiar race of people that stick close to the r native backwoods, and on rare occasions emerge from their self-chosen retirement to the neighboring more populous towns of iwiddleborough and Wareham, and eometimes they are seen on the streets of New Uedford, Tainton, and Fall River, the observed of all beholders. The local appellation that follows them to all places is that of "Pink-Eyed Pitteleys." Their peculiarity is pink eyes and perfectly white hair. This striking singularity is said to have first made its appearance ia a family by the name of Pittsley, in Freetown, a century or more ago, and spread through succeeding generation, among the oiispring of those who intermarried with the members of the family, until many of the residents of this section of a variety of family names as well as that o:f Pittsley have members marked by lihis peculiarity of the eyes and liar and an accompanying fac'al expression that is odd in the extreme. The old man, Merchant Pittsley, was pink-eyed, and he had nine children. All five of his sons had pink eyes and white hair, and one daughter was marked the same way, but the other three girls had as fine black eyes and dark hair as any girl in town. They married, all but one, and had children, and some of their children had pink eyes and white hair, but not all. Brockton (Mass.) Gazette. A Perilous Postponement.

At a recent meeting of the Academj' of Science M. Hiyem, of the medical school, read a paper on the phenomena noticed in the head of an animal after decapitation, with or without transfusion of fesh blood, says a Paris corre spondent of Science. As soon as tho head its separated from the body the

eyes move convulsively, and a look of.

wonder and anxiety is noticeable on the face. The jaws separate witt force, and the tongue seems to be in c. tetanio state. There appears to be some consciousness of what is going on, but this does, not last more than three or four seconds. The eyes then shrink into the bead, and some spasmodic efforts at breathing are made; the nostrils expand, the mouth opens, the tongue is retracted toward the fauces. This respiratory effort is repeated three or four times, but the senses seem to be inactive and the will is lost These phenomena last one or at most two minutes, and the head then beoomes utterly inert If preparations have previously been made so that the head after separation continues to receive a fresh supply oi blood, the voluntary manifestations persist as long as the blood supply is sufficient that is, for half an hour or so.

FOB HORSES. Uvilla, W. Va., ) Nov. 17, 1886. J Recently I bought & young horse. He yns taken very ill with Pneumonia. I tried to think of something to relieve him Concluded whit was good for man would be good for the horse. So I got a bottle of Piso's Cure and gave him half of it through the nostrils. This helped him, and I continued giving same doses night and morning until I had used two bottles. The horse has become perfectly sound I can recommend Piso s Cure for the horse as well as for man. N. S. J. Stride.
