A REVISED FABLE. You may sny, "The gropes are sour," Smiling add, "They're hunting high," And it is not in my power Tho>e assertions to deny. But I'd like to turn the tables, And display the other side; For I sometimes think old fables Show extremely narrow pride. And the fox—poor, ancient creature! Has been most misunderstood. For he surely had one feature Which we all consider good. When we lorg a hope, most cherished, Who of us does not feel sad? But the fox, when his had perished, Made tlie ruost of what he had. Caroline Evans, in the Century. CAUGHT IN HIS OWN TRAP BY JOHN ALT CJIS, Poor Tom! He was a fellow among a j thousand ; brave as a lion, merry as a j lark, and so handsome and dashing! Shoulder to shoulder we marched | many a long mile under the baking j African sun; and when Tom succumbed to fever and died, there was not a dry eye in th< regiment. * "Hurry, old man," he said to me, watching through an opening in our tent, the last sunset his mortal eyes were to look upon, "1 can trust you to give these trinkets to my sister Mary, can't I? j She will prize them. She always had a tender spot in her heart for her goo l I for-uothing brother. Poor child; she will be alone now—quite alone. A risky fate for a pretty girl of twenty. Well, never mind. My little Mary! j Harry, I wish " The sentence was never finished, and the voice which, with its merry ring, had given courage and hope to many a fainting heart of late, sank into eternal silence. Reverently I took charge of the poor boy's legacy to his sister, his medals and ! crosses, won at the peril of his life, j Soon afterwards fate led me back to j Europe. Tom's sister was in Paris, and thither I was eager to betake myself with all possible speed, to resign my charge, and, if possible, on the strength of my inti- , macy with Tom, to win a place in his sister's regard. If a fellow can fall in love with a pho tograph and a glowing description, I, thanks to poor Tom's affectionate elo quence, was in love with Mary Marsden. 1 believed that my comrade's half-uttered dying wish was that I might win the right to protect Mary. Arrived at Marseilles, I found a letter ! from my aunt, Mrs. Cashmere, begging | me to visit her for a few days at Mcntone, j as she had au important matter to dis cuss with me. This invitation, interfering as it did with my desire to seek out Mary at once, was most unwelcome—particularly as I strongly suspected the reason of my J aunt's ardent wish to sec me. She had doubtless been playing a little too reck lessly at Monte Carlo—the love of gam bling being a long-established infirmity | with her—and wanted me to help her out of a tight place. Well, one good turn j deserves another. In my breau-and-jam 1 days many a half-sovereign had found its j way from Aunt Cashmorc's purse to my jacket pocket; why should I not put a cheerful face upon the matter and be- j friend her now, though I devoutly wished the summons had come at some other time. Accustomed as I had been of late to the attire of African ladies on their native soil, my aunt's toilet and appearance Struck me forcibly. She was a handsome woman, perfectly aware of the fact, and the rustling, tinkling, and faint odor of patchouli which accompanied her movements, at tracted an attention which was not, on the whole, ill paid for the trouble it took to look. She wore her silky, white hair high above her still fair forehead; a soft-tinted shawl liuug usually about her silken shoulders in a loose, picturesque fashion; a glittering profusion of costly i rings detracted from the beauty of her I hands, and pendent from her waist dangled a bewildering array of orna mcnts, mostly of considerable value—a ' velvet bag with massive silver clasps, i embossed with jewel-studded scent but- | ties, and a chatelaine so loaded down with trinkets that it was as if she had dragged a silver grappling hook across a jeweller's counter, retaining all the mis cellaneous haul. I thought all this display vulgar in the j extreme, but contented myself with ex pressing a fear that she might be robbed some fine day on one of her walks 1 abroad, as she persisted in wearing all this war paint. "Don't be a fussy old granny before your time, Harry, dear," was all the thanks I got for my solicitude. "I haven't lived ten years on the Riviera for ' nothing,"—she had not, as her losses at Monte Carlo could testify—"and I'm quite able to take care of myself and my \ property. We have, fortunately, out lived the days of highway robberies upon public thoroughfares." My aunt had known Tom Mnrsden's j family iu years past, and was deeply in- ! tcrosted in my mission to Paris. Very ! reluctantly, to satisfy her almost childish I pleading, f showed her Tom's souvenirs, 1 placed in my hands in trust for his sister. ! It seemed a sacrilege to produce them in | such an atmosphere. My annoyance was i extreme when Aunt Cashmore hogged to I he allowed the custody of these valuables j until evening, as she particularly desired j to show them to a friend. I refused at \ flr-t, but her voluble pleading at last i made ine weakly give in. A few hours later, as I was particularly j distinguishing myself over a game of billiards,a fellow brought me a note sum moning me to the Hotel des Palmicrs. where my aunt lived, with all possible speed. Here I found a pretty state of commo tion. Mrs. Cashmore, my aunt, had been attacked in the avenue and robbed, the thief escaping with his plunder. As soon as I had ascertained that my respected relative hud come oil without bodily hurt, I could not repress an unworthy feeling of inward triumph at my astute prediction being so promptly and forci bly verified, but I, of course, maintained a discreet silence upon this point while listening to the victim's account of her misfortune. "I was returning t< luncheon leisurely enough," she began, "when, on turning into that quiet bit of ilex walk, 1 was startled by a man jumping over the hedge and saying something to me which 1 did not understand. Then, all in a flash, lie pushed mc back against a tree, clapped one hand over my mouth -oh, such a dirty hand: -and with the other tore off my l ag, the chatelaine, and all the rest of it. He got some of my bracelets, too. though 1 don t quite know how ni ny. Thou he bctttcd, and how I did yell! but it was of no use. A cloud of waiters went scudding down tho road after the rascal, but he was too quick for them. I'm very sorry, Horry, but those medals and things of poor young Marsdcn were in the bag. They were fortunately not of very much value, and I don't sup pose—" "Good gracious! you don't mean to say the thief has got Tom's last gifts to his sister!" I cried, in horritied dismay. " Yes, thoy are gone; but what are those bits of things compared with my black pearls and real Indian filigree, and ." I interrupted with some exclamation more forcible than polite, I fear, for I was vaguely conscious of my aunt's gaz ing at me in high dudgeon. What a fool I had been to allow Tom's trust to leave my hauds for a moment! I was no more fitted to be given such a mission than auy rascally blackleg. Could I ever hold up my head again at the bare thought of Marv Marsdcn, whom I had so wronged by my dastardly care lessness? And as for looking in her face, how could I dare do that, unless those j stolen goods could be recovered ? | They must be recovered; if it took Imy last penny I would win back poor Tom's legacy, or never know alight con | science aguin. | "What was the fellow like, aunt, i who made the attack?" I asked, with I liuttering eagerness. 1 "A shortish, stumpy man, with a I broad nose, and small, dark eyes. One of his hands had a deep scar on the back." This was a useful and important clue, which the police officers noted with avidity; and I shortly had the assurauce that the best measures possible for trac ing the criminal will be taken at once. My state of mind bordered on despera tion, and I could see no clear way out of mv difficulty. 1 shrank from presenting i myself before Miss Marsdcn minus her j bi other's gifts, and yet she might won i der ut my non-appearance, having been | told of my mission by Thompson. On | the other hand, I loathed the idea of tarrying at Mcntone where the mishap i had occurred. In the midst of my perplexities I heard the day after the robbery that sus- I picious characters had been traced to j Marseilles, one of whom might turn out | to be the man we desired to entrap. I Marseilles being a step towards Mary, I! decided to betake myself thither to find I out if there was any truth iu this state- j ment. My only companion in the railway ! carriage was a sharp-featured lady of un- j I certain age, with multitudinous parcels j and bogs. Not wishing to annoy her : with attempts at conversation which ; might be unwelcome, I retired behind my newspaper, and forgot the lady's cx-'j j is ten ce. Though I stared fixedly at the printed page, my mind was miles away with j Mary, whom I was fated, perhaps, never ; to see. ' Mr bitter-sweet reverie was disturbed j 1 unexpectedly by my travelling compan- ] ion twitching nervously at the corner of ! my paper. I looked at her in a9ton j ! ishment, and saw that she was much , agitated; she drew the paper from my hand, pressing her linger to her lips to ; en join silence, j "I'm in for some sort of a romantic set-to with a crazy woman," I thought to myself, as 1 involuntarily glanced at j the alarm signal on the wall opposite, j | The lady wrote hastily some words | : upon the margin of my paper, which she then returned, j I read:— | "There is a man hidden uuder the ! seat. Arc wc in danger of au attack?" I Much puzzled to know whether my i companion was oil her head, or really ' frightened with cause, I wrote in reply: "Are you sure? Did you see him get ! in?" "No, I felt him; he clutched my foot," i was scribbled hastily beneath my query. ! It was clearly my duty to investigate the cause of my fair neighbor's growing ! alarm; so with astute caution I asked, with marked distinction, if the lady ob jected to tobacco smoke, contorting my lace the while with signs that she was i not to answer in the negative, j She confessed to a decided preference | for the odor of a good cigar. "Thank you for the permission, madam; deprived of my smoke, I really ; sufi'er." i It was such a relief to speak after our 1 solemn interchange of written sentiments upon tho ragged edge of the Times, that I I was prepared to give utterance to any j amount of garrulous platitudes. I lighted a match, talking volubly the while, and | when it was blazing, purposely dropped I it upon the floor, exclaiming at my own 1 awkwardness: "It was my last match, too. I really must try to save a spark of it to light my j j cigar." I stooped to pick up the burned frag- ( mcnts, and took one sharp, corapre- | hensive glance beneath the seat. My j , companion was right—a man lay | crouched and huddled there among the j j shadows. His face was turned away, j but I saw his hand clearly, upon the back of which the scar was visible > through the dirt and grime, j At sight of this villainous-looking l hand, my heart began a merry dance. ! Not from fear -my self-respect obliges me to protest against this possible impu- ! tation- but because we seemed to have | in our clutches the rogue who had stolen ' poor Tom's medals. I might dare to present myself before | Mary, after all, instead of hanging back like a whipped hound. "Am I not right?" the lady said, with , her eyes this time, instead of with her pencil. 1 "Yes," I wrote; "we must give the i fellow in charge as soon as possible. | Don't let him know we suspect his ! presence." | I reliected that our precaution of j writing everything referring to the cul ! prit was perhaps needless, as a common | thief from the Riviera would scarcely be i likely to understand English, still, in , such cases, the extreme of prudence was better than the lack of it altogether. | The half-liour elapsing between the : discovery of this man and our arrival at ( the next station was fraught with ill- I j concealed terror for the sharp-faced lady, I | and much repressed excitement for me. : t\ ould tho man dash out, and either at i tack me or make good his escape before j tho train stopped: Far better for me to be worsted in a tussle with him than to I se him and his booty for ever. I could I - : not form a guess as to his strength, not ! having seen more of him than his branded 1 1 band. For the lady's sake, 1 devoutly ' ' | hoped that we might be spared a scuttle, j r j Presently, to my intense relief, the I J train began to slacken its speed, and the f : hoarse voice of the guard shouting the * | name of the station sounded like celestial i music in my cars. 1 seized upon the first official I could 1 find as we stopped, and he collecting the 21 desired force, made short work of nr I ' resting the man who was stealing his i ride. He was dragged forth with very I"! little resistance; he saw how useless a ! fight would be, and was soon in safe custody. I To my inexpressible joy, poor Tom's • medals were found upon the thief's pei son, together with the greater part of my : ' aunt's property. Two days later I was in Paris and the i happy recipient of au invitation from ! Miss Marsaen to dine with her at the villa where she was temporarily lodged, teu minutes'distance by rail from the j city. Lovely, dark-eyed Mary, pale as a lily • in her black dress; my heart went out to her in sympathy for her great sorrow. I loved her from the moment when she put both her hands in mine and welcomed me as a friend and companion of her lost brother, and before munv weeks had passed by I had won from her the assur ance that my love was returned.— (Yankee Rlade. A WORM EATING PLANT. Curious Evolutions of Nature in New Zealand. One of the officers of the steamer Mari posa had a sort of a missing link on ex hibition yesterday. It is a combination of animal and vegetable life called bul rush caterpillar in New Zealand, of which country "it" (or they) is (or are) native. The caterpillar part of the specimen is just au ordinary every day caterpillar, of the kind scientists cail the Sphceria Ro bcrtsia. The bulrush part of it grows out of the back of the worm's head, and but for the fact that it has a fork iu it it could not pose as a miniature American bulrush of tho kind commonly known as cattails. It i 9 about eight inches high, and hn3 "whiskers" at the tip just as a cattail has. The catterpillar is only three inches long. He was quite dead, of course, and care j ful dissection showed that the root of the j bulrush had eaten out every particle of j the woiill's interior, so that the hairy ] hide simply formed a shell to cover the I root. I The plant is scientifically known as I mctrosiaeres robust a. It grows in New Zealand in more profusion than this par ticular variety of caterpillar does. While ! the bulrushes are frequently found with out the caterpillar, it is seldom that the i caterpilhu is found without some bulrush jis using him for a vegetating pot, and | the extra size of tho rushes that spring J from the caterpillar betoken that there is a natural affinity for flesh on the part of the plant. I Those who have investigated the sub | ject of the strange combination state that the caterpillar burrows in vegetable soil I prior to its metamorphosis, and in its burrowing gets some of the minute seeds j of the bulrush lodged in the scales of the j neck. Nourished by the warmth, tnois j ture and richness of the iusect's body, the seeds strike root into the unfortunate caterpillar's brain. The change into I chrysalis is at once stopped, and after a j few days the caterpillar dies, whereupon the bulrush proceeds to convert the en- I tire animal substance into plant life. ! The hide undergoes this change also, but does not lose its form, anu many specimens possess the horns, legs and ! ( laws intact but for the transformation of substance from animal to vegetable, j The bulrush pursues its way uninter rupted until every particle of the cater pillar is transformed, when it, too, dies, and the hunch of seeds at the top blow l away to chase other worm vitcims. The native New Zealandcr is very fond of the combination when it is fresh for j food, and when evolution is complete ; for coloring matter to be used in their | tattooing. | Decomposition has never been known to occur in a case where the rush com pleted its deadly work. The plant usu ally completes it, too, for if the stalk is ; I broken off during growth a second one j immediately sprouts just below the • j wound.—[Sun Francisco Examiner, ' Hawaiia's Leper Colony. , I The leper community is on the island of Molokai, iu the Hawaiian archipelago. H On this island are a number of precipi -3 ( tous peaks, and at the base of one of I these, which is 0,000 feet high, lie the Kalaupapa plains, stretching seaward, I and wholly without communication with , j the rest of the island, except by sea, as r | the wall of rock stretches on either side |to the water's edge. To this plain, thus r I isolated by nature, all lepers are ban i | ished as soon as the first symptoms of the disease appear. This settlement was ! formed by order of the king in 1800, for it was found that, in spite of stringent I commands to secure the isolation of in dividual cases, these could not be carried out while the lepers were allowed to live I with their families and friends. Out side of the fact that the lepers are dc j barred from any direct communication I with non-infected persons, no restriction ,is laid upon them. Their village, which | has usually an average of about eight i hundred persons, has its churches, I schools and stores as other villages have, j and also government officers. The gov j ernment provides all with shelter, nec essary clothing, and daily rations of good | food ; for all luxuries they must depend i upon their own resources or tho gener j osity of friends. Medicine and the at | tendance of a physician are provided by ( the government, which also appropriates I $*20,000 a year, a certain portion of : which is to be given for every instance | of actual cure in the case of a leper. All | officials of the island are lepers; the i teachers and ministers, with the exception . of a Roman Catholic priest, arc lepers.

There is a large hospital kept in admirable condition in which the more advanced and serious cases arc cared.

The latest arrivals at the Central Park menagerie, New York city, who are well worth attention, but probably will not get it, owing to their small size and retiring habits, arc four horned toads from Texas. | They were sent by Mr. P. B. Goodnow. They look more like fantastic objects made of painted cardboard than living things. They are not toads at all, but members of the lizard family. The reptiles average about four inches in length from their heads to the ends of their tails. The skin of their backs is hard and curi j ously knotted, and covered by a fantastic . pattern in faint blue and pink. Crawling in the sand they are scarcely noticeable, j but against a darker ground they look ' very pretty. Their heads and tails are , fringed with spikes, and there is a circle ■ of these on their backs. They have been 1 put in tho snakes' cage, where, if they i were ordinary juicy garden toads, they l i would soon bo digested, but being horned J I lizards they are in no such danger. The ; GOBBI per has often seen these horned s j frogs in Texas, and pondered over the •' j curious construction of their internal 1 affairs, which enables them to survive an 2 j indefinite length of time without food. In 1878 in Dcnison one of these toads, s j which had not eaten a bite for thirteen months, was exhibited alive to the lowa ' ; Press Association, then oil an excursion. —[St. Louis Republic. AVAILABLE T.A iiX'&L Remaining Capacity of tn* Earth For Settlement. The subject of the lands of the globe still available for European settlement was discussed at a joint meeting of the Geographical and Economical Science Sections of the British Association. Mr. G. E. ltavcnstein reviewed the capacity of different parts of the earth, excluding the arctic and antarctic regions as wholly unavailable, to accommodate population, lie estimated the total number of per sons whom the earth could feed at 5,t-09,000,000. The kind of population with which it shall be inhabited will de pend to a large extent on the capacity of Europeans to thrive iu strange climates, lie spoke of the tendency of population to move to the southward, but did not think tropical climates adapted to the acclimatization of European races in the sense in which the word acclimatization is generally used. The health of Euro peans in tropical countries had improved in consequence of sanitary measures, but that was not all. Population iu some rountries did not increase, and where they could compare the facts col lected iu the same country, they found that the superior race increased at a slower rate than the inferior race. That would, in course of time, keep back the growth of population, and, in fact, the whole of mankind was being gradually lifted up to a higher level. If only the superior, not the in ferior, people increased, the speaker did not think the progress of civilization would be quite so steady. Mr. E. J. Marend, after his experience in Africa, wa9 of the opinion that the prevalent idea that tropical regions arc unsuited to colonization by Anglo-Saxons is mis taken. Englishmen live for years iu Matabeleland, bringing up their children and keeping their health. Traders, missionaries and Dutchmen are all able to thrive there, and the country is com petent to provide the food supplies for a large population. Sir lb Hawson believed that the proportion of land iu the differ ent zones is as follows: About fifty per cent, of the whole is in the temperate zone, about forty per cent, in the torrid zone, and about a tenth in the arctic zone. Before going further in dealing with a future home for the surplus pop ulation of Europe, we must ascertain the zones that are suited to a Europeau pop ulation. The surplus population of Eng land and the north of Europe could oc cupy only a temperate zone. It was also essential that we should knowliow much is available iu each of the zones. Mr. John Mackenzie's experience had shown him that South Africa is habitable for both the north and south Europeans. The Rev. Dr. Cunningham pointed out that the inten sity of production might be much in creased through the direction of native agriculture by European intelligence. Mr. Wells, a traveler in Brazil, called attention to an aica in the south of that country which might be called the Traus vaal of South America. To the north west of liio lay a considerable coffee pro ducing area, with an exceedingly healthy climate, and the productive powers of the country were far indeed from beiug approximately reached. Several speakers meutioned the necessity of emigrants to the south adapting their mode of life to the changed climate, and insisted on the necessity of temperance. Dr. J. G. Gar son said the question of drainnge was most important, though it often occurs that the first steps toward sanitation arc followed by outbreaks of fever, arising from saturation of the soil by sewage. Elevation above the sea-level exerted much influence on health, though the groat thing for emigrants was to choose a climate as nearly as possible like that to which they were used. —[Popular Science Monthly. How Lime is Secreted. The manner of secretion of lime by egg or shell-producing animals, as birds, mol lusks and crustaceans, has been made a study at the Scottish Marine Station for scientific research. Messrs. Murray and Irvine, in charge of the station, have given the results of their investigations in a recent paper read before the Royal Society of Edinburgh. In this paper they describe the manner in which kens procure the lime for cover ing their eggs. A number of hens were shut up in a wooden building where no lime could be procured, ana were fed upon food in which no Jimc was con - tained. For a few days the eggs laid were covered with the usual shells, but soon afterwards they had only a mem braneous covering, and were what are commonly known as soft eggs. Then lime in the form of sulfiliate, phosphate, nitrate and silicate was mixed with the food, and the eggs were covered with the usual shells, consisting of carbonate of lime only. It was believed that phos phate of lime was formed in the blood from the lime salts given, and that the phosphate was decomposed in the act of secretion of the shells and was changed into carbonate. This being so, it fol lows that the feeding of crushed bones, which are digestible, to hens is the best way in which to supply tho lime, the phosphoric acid of the bones aiding iu the formation of the interior portion of the eggs.—[Farmers' Magazine.
