ODD FACTS ABOUT BRUTES. MATTERS OP INTEREST NOT GEN ERALLY KNOWN. Ants Put to a Peculiar Use—Tigprs Mruver Than lrions—All Wild An imals Are Far-sighted. The grip of an aut's jaw is retained even after the body has been bitten off and nothing but tlio head remains. This knowledge is possessed by a certain tribe of Indians in Brazil, who" put the ants to u very peculiar use. When an Indian gets a gash cut in his hand, instead of having his hand sewn together, as phy sicians do in this country, he procures five or six large black ants, and holding their heads near the gash, they bring their jaws together in bitting the flesh, and thus pull the two sides of the gash together. Then the Indian pinches off the bodies of the ants and leaves the heads clinging to the ilesh, which is held together untii the gash is perfectly healed. A pair of rats, happily situated and un disturbed, will in three years, have in creased to 656,808. Calculating that ten rats eat as much in one day as a ipan, which, we think, is rather under than over the fact, the consumption of thc«o rats would be equal to that of 65,G50 men the year round and leave eight rats in the year to spare. .Multiplying in this rapid way, it is providential that the rut has so many natural enemies. All these to the contrary notwithstanding, he of ten proves sufficiently troublesome to make the community conspire agaiust him. In Ireland they singe the hair of a rat which h is been caught, but it is other wise unharmed. In Oerinany they let one loose with a small bell attached to his neck. The tinkling of this, as the belled rat chases his friends, produces a panic among them aud causes them to tleethe premises. The Bengal tiger has more courage than the lion, according to a showman, who states that the matter was tested in this manner: "We placed a shooting cracker in the respective cages aud fired the fuses. As soou as the fuses began to burn they attracted the attention of both animals, but in a widely different manner. The lion drew into a corner and watched the proceedings with a dis trustful t and uneasy eye. The tiger, on the contrary, advanced to the burning fuse with a firm step and unflinching gaze. On reaching the cracker he took his paw and began to roll it over the floor, and when it exploded beneath his very nose ho did not flinch, but con tinued his examination until perfectly satisfied. The lion betrayed great fear when ho heard the report of the explo sion, and for quite a time could not be coaxed out of his den." A curious communication has been made to the "Academic de Medicine" by M. Motais of Angiers, whose works ou the various diseases of the eye are highly esteemed. lie has closely examined the effect of captivity on the sight of wild beasts, such us lions, tigers, etc., and asserts that all animals in a savage state are far-sighted. The same remark ap plies toman in' nn uncivilized state, and even to those who, though civilized, follow vocations which oblige them to remain constantly in the open air, such as sailors or farm laborers. The same faculty exists in caged animals, when they have bceu taken after the age of six or eight months; but when born in cap tivity or kept in cages'when very young they become nearsighted, which M. Motais attributes to the narrow space in which they are confined and the train ing which obliges them to follow tlio eye of the keeper or trainer to obey his will. The nearsightedness of school children may, in his opinion, be ascribed to the same cause—the habit of concen trating the sight ou one point, and the fact that the power of the visual organ becomes modified according to the requirements to which it is subjected. Many stories told of the crafty fox are doubtless incidents of the imagination. But a recent writer tells an anecdote which, though taxing belief, he says is Touched for by an eyewitness of the af fair. Some fishermen ou the west coast of Ireland were in the habit of going to a small island, a few hundred yards from the mainland, in quest of bait. The isl and was inhabited by large numbers of rabbits, aud could be reached at low tide by wading, the Vvater there being only a few inches deep. One morniug they went in their boat quite early, it being high tide, and on lauding saw a dead fox lying on the beach. The fur of the animal was all bedraggled, and he seemed to have been drowned. One of the men, remarking that his skin was worth something, pitched him into the boat. Procuring their bait they returned to the mainland, and the man who had possessed himself of the fox seized him by the tail and flung him on shore. As soon as the animal struck the beach he picked himself up with considerable agil ity for a dead fox and. shot off like a flash up among the cliffs, while the men stood staring at each other* in mute astonishment. The men concluded that he had crossed over to the island during the night, wheu the tido was low, in search of rabbits, aud, finding in tlje morning that he was cut off from the mainland, counterfeited death, with the expectation of thereby procuring a pass age to the shore in a boat, au expecta tion which was fully realized. In the island of Ceylon the people arc very fond of elephant huntiug. They begin by clearing an open spuce near a forest, which is strongly fenced in with trunks of trees, with open places for doors. This is called a corral. When so much of the work is done the natives get behind and arouud the elephants with blazing torches, shaking spears and rattling all kinds of noisy instruments iu ordor to frighten the huge animals while all the time driviug them toward the open doors of the corral. 'At last with a rush the great herd enter, the entrances are barred, and the poor giants of the woods find Themselves hopelessly im prisoned. An elephant's rage is dread ful to witness, but the ingeuuity of man has found a way of subduing it, On« by one each prisoner In fried again, and tame elephants, remarkable for their sa gacity, come up to him, stroke him with their trunks, and otherwise cajole hint until they lead him onto a good, strong tree. The natives creep up behind, and in a minute a rope with a running knot is round the elephant's leg and made fast to a tree. ■ All the time this is going on tho tame elephants are humoring their deluded victim, but as soon as he is secured they go away and leave him, which is a shabby trick. Then the men bring him nice cocoanuts and leaves to eat, which, of course, he refuses, as he is again in a great passion and struggling to be free. But hunger subdues even the fiercest, and at last his wild roaring ceases to resound through the woods and he is forced to eat. From that time the taming process is comparatively easy; again and again he is fed, as he requires it, by a kind hand; and the elephant, susceptible to kindness, becomes at last a docile servant of man.— Boston Courier. WISE WOKDS. Repentance never comes too lite, if it comes from the heart. There is glory in anything you do sim ply from a sense of duty. Men need moral courage more than they do higher foreheads. Health may bo wealth, but it is pretty hard to make the doctors believe it. If an alligator could talk, he would probably declare ho had a small mouth. How many people there are whose souls lay in them like a pith in a gooso quill! The first proof of a man's incapacity for anything is his endeavoring to lix the stigma of failure upon others. To jiulge human character rightly, a man may sometimes have very small ex perience provided ho has a very large heart. Every day is a leaf in life. When the day dawns it is a blank. There is in scribed thereon our thoughts, words and actions. That which is easy to do, though it may be worth doing, is not so important as that which is hard and disagreeable, and which therefore finds few workers. Equality is the life of conversation; and he is as much out who assumes to himself any part above another,as he who considers himself below tho rest of the society. There are always two ways of locking at a thing The man who walks so slow ly along a narrow sidewalk that he im pedes the progress of tho man behind him is regarded as a pestilential nuisance; whereas to tho slow walker it is tho im patient rapid walker who makes all tho trouble and renders life a burden. Curious Facts About Ice. Did you ever wonder why it is that ice, being formed of congealed water, floats? And why, on some still lakes, it begins to form at the bottom before it does on the surface? Scientists explain these enigmas this wise: Ice is spe cifically lighter than water just about to freeze, and, therefore, floats in it. This is the one reason why the formation of ice usually begins at the surface. An other is its peculiar law of expansion. The general law is that cold induces ex pansion ; this law holds good with water only to a certain point. When water lias cooled down to within 7.4 degrees of freezing it ceases to contract as before with increase of cold and begins to ex pand till it freezes. This expansion causes the colder por tions of the water to rise, to the surface. The formation of "ground ice," or "anchor ice," as it is sometimes called, is the only exception to the rule given above. The whole body of water is at the same time cooled to below the freez ing point, and the substarces at the bottom, the stones and gravel of tho river or lake bed, serve as a point of congelation or crystallization for the w.it nr. Gro-ind ice may be the lowest stratum of tho once completely frozen mass of water, retained at the bottom by the natural cohesion to the rough substances of the river-bed, during the thawing and of the ice on the surface; or it may evf be formed under favorablo conditions beneath briskly flowing water, probably by the action of eddies, which draws the surface water down through the warmer but densor liquid, thus cool ing the rocks at the bottom, forming a base for its formation. This remarkable species of ice usually gathers on a clear, cold night, when the surface of tho water is not frozen.— St. Louis Republic. "A Feather in His Cap." "A feather in his cap," signifying honor and distinction, arose from the custom prevalent among the ancient Syr ians, and perpetuated to-day among the various savage or semi-civilized tribes of Asia and America, of adding a new feather to their headgear for every enemy slain. In the days of chivalry the maiden knight received his casque featherless, and won his plumes as he had won his spurs. In a manuscript written by Rich ard Hensard in 1598, and preserved in the British Museum, it is said of the Hungarians that it had been an ancient custom among them that none should wear a feather but he who had killed a Turk, and to such only it was lawful to show the number of feathers in their caps. In Scotland and Wales it is still customary for the sportsman who kills his (irst woodchuck to pluck out a feather and stick it in his cap.— Boston Transcript. A Pea Cauuery. « The canning factory at Grand Island, Neb., lias 140 men cunning poas and the output of peas will be close to 500,- 000 cans. It t xpects to finish with peas this week and put things in shape for sweet corn. Two threshers are run and the peas are threshed from the vine as thor oughly as the wheat from the straw, the peas being cut or pulled and hauled tc the factory on the vine, avoiding all handling by hand, making a vast saving iu expense.— Chicago Herald. I NEWS AND NOTBB FOB WOMEN. Little jackets of lace are dainty. Fancy buttons « e coming into promi nence. Jennie June has Veen made Honorary President of Sorosis for life.

Black silk handkerchiefs have again been brought out, but will hardly gain favor. Chocolate is said to be the favorito drink witb women as well their favorite candy. Ann?. Shaw, the woman preacher, says she wea,s short hair simply because she was born that way. When the ex-Empress Eugenie was asked at Cap Martin, near Mentone, the other day to fill out a census blank this is how she did it: "Comtessede Pierre ponds (Marie Eugenie), sixty-four years of age; born in (Iran ad a, Spain; natu ralized French; widow; traveling." New toilet sets are in opaque white and gold, with the monogram in gold letters on the side of the pitcher. Others are in novel shape, one having an oblong bowl, with the pitcher in most curious shape, low and long, with a broad nose, the wholo resting on a brass stand, oa which it can be turned, instead of being lifted to pour the water. Some of the handsome black costumes of the season show costly black laco coats in the deep Louis XIV. stylo open over very rich vests of gold embroidered faille. Some of the vests are of gold dotted silk net arranged with a blouse effect; others are of lustrous corded silk striped with gold gimps, these gimps being made of genuine gold threads. Checked or striped ginghams foi misses show the waist with the neck cut away, as though a square guimpe wero designed to fill it, but instead there will be a full frill of rows of very narrow lace, which is also used in a dozen rows on a pointed cape effect, laid over the top of a full puffed sleeve, which termi nates, without trimming, just below the elbow. The new bridesmaid's present is the lucky slipper brooch, made of gold, with a true lover's knot in jewels on the toe and red enamelled heels. The pin is en closed in a case, mae'e also in the shape of a shoe. Another gift, dear to the heart of the maid of honor, is a case of lace pins, usually of half a dozen of the convenient little ornaments, each set with a different colored stone. Rain water, it is well known, is the best cosmetic. A good substitute is to let some orange, lemon or cucumber peel soak in water used to wash the face. This need not be especially prepared for every ablution. Keep a wide-mouthed bottle or jar of it on your toilet stand and use daily for tho face. It softens the skin and gives a becoming glow, while healthfully stimulating tho action of the skin. Some ingenious person has patented and put on sale a flatiroa which especially commends itself to women who board or any who employ dressmakers in theit homes. It is made with an opening in the upper part and is hollow inside. Within are placed blocks of a new sort of fuel which comes in little cakes, and when these are lighted they will burn for six hours and keep the iron weU heated all the time. Tho short woman will have a very sad summer if she hasn't a soul above hei garments. Deep, basque jackets, three quarter capes, frills, and panniers, while very pretty on the tall, slight .woman, approach the ridiculous on a woman lc3» than five feet four. The choice lies be tween being out of the fashion or being caricatures of the mode, though occa sionally a happy compromise is ingeniou» ly carried out by some exceptionally clev« woman.

When Picnics Were New. There are some fashions that time only enhances and improves. The Annual Jiegister, 1802, informed its readers that a new kind of entertainment bad come into fashion, called picnic suppers, where a variety of dishes were set down on a list, and the members of the com pany each drew ooe, and whoever drew that particular dish was expected to fur nish it for the entertainment of tho others.
