CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, AUGUST 8, 1901.
A Slnjctnif Enrtli worm.
WP have heard of a good many crea
tures which sing, Including Mr. Ilus
kin'H singing serpents in tlie valley of
Diamonds, yet Mr. Annandale has as
sured us tiiat there exists in the Malay
peninsula a being which the Malays de
scribed under the above heading.
It lives inn burrow In the ground
and cheerfully sinus, or at least chirps. |
But the Malays call everything that j
creeps a worm, and the boast which j
they really mean is a large kind of i
«rlcket with a voice.
11l the very same part of the world,
however, is a real earthworm, a huge
monster three or four feet in length,
which was discovered not long ago and
which really has a voice, or at least
can produce a sound. The Latin name
of inuslciis has been given to it on that
account.
When it is foraging about near the
surface of the ground, the numerous
sliaii) little bristles implanted in its
skin, which enable it to hold onto the
earth, strike against stones and give
out a musical sound. This Is rather
more like twanging :i'»*'Jew's harp"
than singing. But any sort of sound
from these silent, gliding creatures is
singing.—London Kxpress.
JacliMoii mid the Tailor'* mil.
A gentleman in Pennsylvania lias a
queer document which came into his
family's possession many years ago
and shows an interesting phase of An
drew Jackson's character as well as a
glimpse of the simple times of his pres
idential term.
It appears that a clerk in the state
department contracted a tailor's bill for
$64.50. and the tailor, finding himself
unable to collect the amount, laid the
matter before the president In an ap
pealing letter.
Jackson promptly decided that tills
was a matter to which ho must attend
personally, so he transmitted the tai
lor's letter to the secretary of state,
with this strong recommendation:
Referred to the secretary of state. If on inquiry
<hc fact stated tie true, unless the clerk pays up
his debt let him be forthwith discharged.
The government would become a party to such
swindling: provided it permitted its officers to be
come indebted for necessaries and not see that
they paid their debts out of their salaries.
Honest men will pay their debts. Dishonest
men must not tie employed by the government.
A. J.
This case is leferred to Amos Kendall, Ksq.,
and on $lO per month being secured to C. K.
Kloff, Mr. Gooch to be continued in his ofUce.
Lemon Jnloe.
A little lemon juice in the water in
which fish is boiled will make it desira
bly solid, the too frequent lack of a
boiled fisli. Sweetbreads left for an
hour before cooking in a bath of rather
strong dilution of lemon Juice are made
white and firm. A few drops of lemon
Juice are declared to add a delicious
flavor to scrambled eggs. But a quite
new use is in the preparation of rolled
beef. This requires a rib roast, with
the bones cut out. The Juice of a lem
on Is squeezed over the meat, and the
skin of it rolled up in it. The result is
a tender, juicy, nroniatic meat, very
grateful to the palate. The Brazilian
beef is highly esteemed for its flavor,
and tills is because the cattle pasture
where lemons are plentiful and eat
the fallen fruit, which flavors their
flesh.—What to Eat.
Wet Wedding Dnyn Preferred.
The adage "Happy is the bride that
the sun shines on" Is one that is un
known in many lands. A Breton bride
takes it unhappily when the day of her
wedding dawns bright and sunny. Italn
on her marriage morn is held to sig
nify that all her tears are shed and that
she will therefore have a happy mar
ried life.
It is said that the Erza of Simbrisk
call the day before the wedding the
weeping day, and the bride and her girl
friends weep as much as possible with
the idea of getting the mourning of life
over, so that only what is joyful may
remain. In some countries this result is
attained by sousing the bride with wa
ter. The Greeks think that a thorough
drenching of the bride will bring her
lasting good fortune.
Cronhed the Diamond,
Among historic diamonds one, the
"Piggott," has gone out of existence.
The story of its destruction is a trag
ical one. It was said to be worth $200,-
000. The diamond came into the pos
session of All Pasha, who always wore
it In a green silk purse attached to his
girdle.
He was wearing it when he was
wounded by lies hid Pnslia. Knowing
that his wound was mortal, he imme
diately retired to his divan, gave orders?
that ills favorite wife should be poison
ed and then delivered the diamond to
Captain D'Anglas with the order that,
it should be crushed to powder in his
presence. His command was obeyed,
and the beautiful gem was utterly de
stroyed.
When Turtles Were Big.
Of the turtles it may be said that
they represent the most ancient type of
all vertebrates, resembling closely as
they do the reptiles of their kind which
existed so far back as the mesozoic era.
There were sea tortoises during that
epocli which measured 20 feet In spread
of flippers, while some tertiary tor
toises were not less big in hotly, meas
uring 12 feet from head to tail.
