THE TOAD AND BIS PREY.

Pro rial on f NsUure by WAich

He Can Kat lasecta I recently spent five or six hours on steamboat in company with a stranger from Brooksville a modest, intelligent man, oil twenty years my junior. Just as we were nearing the city of Bangor the remark of a third person led him to ay that tbe most curious thing, he had ever seen in his life was on occasion of his splitting a huge bowlder in a field that he might use the pieces for a stone wall, and finding in the center of it a great fat toad. If his report was true it would seem that the toad must have crawled in or fallen into the fissure in the first year of his life, and have found in there a sufficient supply of insects, either crawling in or falling in, to sustain his life for four or five years. 1 presume you are all aware of the peculiar manner in which the toad seizes his prey. The rcot of his tongue is fastened in the very front of his up

per jaw, while the tip lies far down his throat. It thus lies directly over his windpipe, and he would not be able to breathe were not his tongue perforated in the middle, exactly in the right place, so that it can act opening or contracting, somewhat in the manner of the glottis. When he sees any moving thing which he judges to be an inject he throws the tip of his tongue out with great accuracy of aim, pix?ks the insect up, and thrusts it down his throat with the rapidity of lightr ing. Lay down an apple core or a little piece of shingle smeared with mol&sses near a toad, and you must watch very sharply to see how it is that he so rapidly transfers every fly that settles on jour bait to his own stomach. The accuracy of aim in the young toad is similar to the accuracy with which the young quail or chicken picks up a grain. A young chicken, having onlv its head out of the shell, picked m "a fly that lighted near it And, said Mr. Calthrop, when you consider the Bice co-operation of nervous and muscular movements necessary to this feat, yon will perceive that the chicken must have been practicing fly catching in the person of its ancestry for thousands or millions of years. But I once had curious proof that the toad is capable of improvement by practice. Under a beehive in a garden at Cambridge I observed for several successive summers a toad watching for overloaded bees who failed to reach the threshold of the hives. No sooner did they fall on the ground than he snapped them up. But one day I saw he had loat by some accident his right eye, ad when he struck at a bee he lost his aim, and picked up dirt from one side of the bee. He wiped his mouth with his fore paw and tried again and again The bee generally managed to climb to the top of some little prominence on the ground and fly away before the toad succeeded. The poor fellow was half starved and grew thin, bat I observed that before the summer was ended he had learned to aim as correctly with one eye as he used to with two, and had again recovered his plumpness. The toad's tongue usually puts things down his throat so nicely that he does not need much power of , swallowing; but he occasionally needs it and is forced to make up by mother wit what is lacking in the powers of his throat. You will observe this most frequently in his attempt to take a grasshopper or, locust. A toad will frequently attack an object that is really too large for him to get into his mouth at alL Thus I have seen one attempt a huge caterpillar of a sphinx, and I have known of one undertaking a wounded humming bird. In this case it was a perfect failure. But when a toad has transferred the head of a large locust to his stomach and finds the hind legs and tail still protruding from his mouth, he usually turns to the nearest atone or fence and pushes the grasshopper's legs against the obstacle until he has rammed it into his mouth. It would seem from this that his stomach is capable of considerable mechanical extension without giving pain. And were his stomach not somewhat insensible he would be neither capable of eduring the long fasts to which he must sometimes submit nor of indulging with impunity in the feasting and overeating which we sometimes observe in him. Boston Globe The Sates ef "Pickwick." The publishers of u Pickwick sent out, on sale oar return, 1,500 copies of each of the first five numbers to all parts of the provinces, but the only result was aa average sale of fifty copies of each number! The publication was practically a failure, and it was seriously debated whether it should be discontinued or not. In the fourth number Sam Weller had appeared on the scene, and iortunataV at this juncture attracted great attention, calling forth admiration by the freshness and originality of the conception Sam was received with acclamation by all, and arose to an unheard-of. popularity. The sale of the ensuing numbers suddenly increased, and at the completion of the work it had attained to 40,000 oopiea! When the twelfth number was reached the publishers seat the author check for 500 as a practical expression of their gratification. During the publication of the work Dickens received from the same source several decks, amounting to 3,000, in addition to the fifteen guineas per number which it was agreed should be paid him. It was understood at the time that Messrs. Chapman & Hall made a clear profit of nearly 20,000 by the sale of the " Pickwick Papers, after paying author's expenses. Temple Bar Keeping Pigems. Grain and seeds compose the food of pigeons, but they prefer worms when the young are feathering, or some kind of animal food. Corn, wheat and buckwheat are excellent, and a salt codfish should be hung where they can pick it Millet and hemp seeds are delicacies and highly relished. Pop corn is better than any other variety of corn for them. Pigeons will not eat food that has been fouled, and they must have plenty of sand and gravel in the loft, as well as ground oyster shells. Give plenty of fresh water at all times. If the pigeons are given a high loft, they aoay be oonfined m wire-covered runs, fca9 they will mats sod breed, as

well as safe from hawks and boys, but in order to be successful the floor and nests must be kept very dean, or lice will get in the flock and cause a loss of

tne vouDir ones. To guard acrainst lice

is the most important duty connected

j with raising pigeons. Agricultural

Journal. The Newspaper as a Household Com pauion.

Business houses fail and customers go elsewhere and buy, without delay or discomfort; trade goes on, after the

little ripple of excitement dies out, pretty much the same as before; huge

structures burn down, and in a short

time others rise in their places, and

the neighborhood soon forgets the loss;

but when the presses of an old journal

stop, and the face of too accustomed counselor, guide, and friend fails to be seen at the morning meal, fresh, clean, attractive, and full of matter for study and entertainment, an exclamation of surprise is heard in thousands of households. Where is the paper?"

would be the question from the child to the gray-head. If it were announced that the presses would revolve no more, many a father would feel like putting crape at the door-knob for an old, familiar, and well-beloved friend, whose face would never be seen again. Happily, this rarely happens. When a journal wins its way by merit and faithfulness in the performance of duty into the heart of the family, they are loath to turn it from the door as time goes on. One generation loves it as the preceding did. It is the old friend who has seen the faces of all the ancestors, and its presence is always welcome. It knows the r history. Men who make newspapers wear oat aud die like other people. A black line or two along the page asd a few words in a column tell that the writer has laid down his pen, and that the weary hand and once whirling brain have stopped work forever. But such a one leaves his mark and example behind His work has gone into the journal as a part of its character, and the man who takes up the worn pen he dropped strives to preserve its individuality and its strength. Baltimore A merican. Where the Marbles Come From, Nearly all the common marbles which drag down the pockets of the boys of our land are made in Oberstein, Germany. They are made from the refuse of the agate and stone quarries in that neighborhood. The stone is broken into small cubes by blows of a light hammer. These small blocks of stone are thrown by the shovelful into the hopper of a small mill, formed of a bed stone, having; its surface grooved with concentrated furrows; above these is the "runner," which is made of hard wood, having a level face on its lower surface. The upper block is made to revolve rapidly, water being delivered upon the grooves of the bed stone where the marbles are being rounded. It takes about fifteen minutes to finish a bushel of good marbles, ready for "snapping. n One mill will turn" out 170,000 marbles per week. The very hardest "crackers," as the boys call them, are made by a slower process, somewhat analogous, however, to the other. Syracuse Standard. Such Men Make Newspapers. Charles Williams, war correspondent of the London Chronic le, was the first correspondent to send the news of the loss of Gordon, and although the dispatch was kept back forty-eight hours he was still ahead. The return of the column was so slow across thee desert that he started alone with his camels, missed the depot of water and food in the night, and was twenty hours alone in the desert without water. When at last he reached a village he says he drank two gallons of water at a draught, and, more being refused, topped oil' his thirst with a quart of milk. Food for In rants. It was claimed by the readers of one of the papers before the American Association of Science that of every 100 infants fed on mothers' milk about eight die at the end of the first year ; of 100 wet-nursed eighteen die, and of 100 fed on "infant food" fifty one die by the end of the first year. Food derived from cows milk, diluting it with a requisite quantity of water, and by adding cream and heating, is claimed to be the best and safest. $500 Reward la offered, in good faith, by the manufacturers of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy for a case of catarrh which they cannot cure It it mild, soothing, and healing in its effects, and cures oold in the head," catarrhal deafness, throat ailments, and many other complications of this distressing disease. 50 cents, by druggist. Experiments with dogs show that their keen sense of smell enables them to detect or discover persons by this sense alone. Such experiments prove that not only do we all have looks peculiar to ourselves, but that each individual has a distinctive odor about his person which is being continually given off as are the odors of flowers. Human beings are by no means unsusceptible to the influences of these bodily odors, and perhaps they have more influence than we suspect in causing one person to be attracted toward or repelled from another. Perhaps we do not know what we miss in this lack of keen development of one of the five senses, but, on the other hand, perhaps we are well off as we are. Dr. Footed Health Monthly. Though electrical storage batteries have attracted attention only within the past seven years, the discovery of the principle is as old as the century, Gausherot having first noticed in 1801 that platinum or silver wires gave off a current after being disconnected from a voltaic battery with which they had been used for decomposing saline water. The first secondary cell of Plante was made in I860, The circulation of the blood was discovered by Michael Servitus, a French physician, in 1553, rediscovered by Csalpinus in 1509, and more completely by Harvey in 162. Closed carriages began to be used by persons of the highest quality in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. A hobth of England ferryman has the following motto: "lie crown, 90 crews!'

Mexican Mining Kings. The bonanza kings of Zacateciis aie the Escobedos, and the king bee of the family is the Hon. Jesus Escobedo. His income, in the language of a Zacntecas American, is three times what John W. Alaekay's is. When ho was a boy Jesus Escobedo peddled charcoal. Associated witli Jesus in tho mining enterprises are Jose Maria and Cayetano Escobedo. 13esides the three brothers there are other branches of the family also engaged in mining. Jesus Escobedo is one of the largest owners in the Veta Grande, from tie discovery of which the existence of Zacatecas as a mining camp dates. He has been a Deputy in the lower branch of the Mexican Congress, and a Senator as well. Jesus Escobedo confines his attention almost exclusively 1o mines. His brother, Jose Maria, is one of the largest real-estate owners in the city. In one locality he has 2,000 tenants of the poorer class, and his rent roll amounts to $150 a day. A branch of the family owns a hacienda eighteen miles long and five miles wide below the city. When the Escobedos think corn is getting too cheap they run a little corner and tie up $,000,000 bushels in their granaries until the market stiffens. Zacatecas Letter.

A Useful Precaution. It Is a useful precaution for the tourist, the commercial traveler, or the emigrant to the West, to take along Hostetter'3 Stomach Bitters. Invalids who travel by steamboat or rail E hould provide themselves with it, in order to prove at or remedy the nausea which the jarring and vibration of vehicles in transitu often csubbs them. Vastly preferable is it for this simple, but needful purpose, to the heady unmedicatod stimulants of commerco. On board ship, it not only remedies sea-sickness, but neutralizes fas pernicious effects of water slightly brackish, which, if unqualified, is apt to give rise to irregularities of the bowels, cramps in the abdominal region, and dyspepsia. To the aerial poison of malaria it is an efficient antidoi. fciick headache, heartburn, and wiud upon tae stomach, are promptly banished by it. It healthfully stimulates the kidneys and blfiddnr, and nullifies the early symptoms of rheumatism. The Diet or Strong Men. The Roman soldiers, who built suoh wonderful roads and carried a weight of armor and luggage that would crush the average farm hand, lived on coarse brown bread and sour wine. They were temperate in diet and regular and constant in exercise. The Spanish peasant works every day and dances half the night, yet eats only bis black bread, onions, and watermelon. The Smyrna porter eats only a little fruit and olives, yet he walks off with his load of 100 pounds. The coolie, fed on rice, is more active and can endure more than the negro fed on fat meat. The heavy work of the world is t ot done by men who eat the greatest quantity. Moderation in diet seems to be the prerequisite of endurance. Scientific American. The Bank of England was established in 1694, and is banker to the Government, receiving all taxes, and paying all dividends and outgoings for public offices. The Correct Time. There are very few men who do not pride themselves on always having the correct lime, and wonderful and delicate mechanisms ere devised to enable them to do so. But the

more delicate a chronometer is made the more subject it becomes to derangement, and unless it be kept always perfectly clean it Boon loses its usefulness. What wonder, ihcn, that the human machine bo much more delicate and intricate than any work of man should require to be kept thoroughly cleansed. The liver is the mainspring of this complex structure, and on the impurities left in the blood by a. disordered liver depend moat of the ills that flesh is heir to. Even consumption (which its lung scrofula) is traceable to the imperfect action of this organ. Kidney diseased, skin disease?, sick headache, heart disoase, dropsy, and a long catalogue of grave maladies have' their origin in a torpid or sluggish liver. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, by establishing a healthy, normal action of the liver, acts as a cure and preventive of these diseases. By a wise provision of Providence, dose beside the little tree on which nutmegs grow often stands a greater. Texan tiijtinga. A Mem or j or Early Days.
