To this varnish and pork fat are added.

The materials thus pre- pared are molded in molds of carved wood, dried, which takes about twenty days in fine weather, and adorned with Chinese characters in gilding.

A young man named Thomas Far- rar, who lives in Shelbyville, Ind., has discovered a fact in natural history and an amusing and profitable sport at the same time. By means of his device one of the most prized of del- icacies is cheap in that locality named, the edible in question being frogs’ legs. The old method of catching frogs with red flannel on a hook is now quite out of date. The young man discovered that if a strong light is thrown in their eyes as they sit singing on a lily pad or a snag, they will sit still charmed by the glare, and allow them- selves to be seizednby the hand of the hunter. His apparatus when he goes frog hunting consists of a tin milk pail with a hole cut in due side and the handle fastened above it. A small lamp is carriéd in the pail, the chimney projecting through the hole. The bottom of the pail acts as a re- flector, and throws the fatal light ,in- to the frogs’ eyes. Nothing more is needed but a long 'pair of wading vious to mosquitoes’ stings, for it is a. well-known fact that where bullfrogs flourish there the mosquito is largest and most venomous—New York Jour- nal. Lake of Ink with Curative Power. In the middle of the Cocopah hills, in Arizona, iswvhat is known as the Lake of Ink. Though supplied by beautiful springs of clear water, the liquid of the lake is black. and of an ink-like char~ acter. The temperature varies from [10 degrees to 216 degrees, according to the locality, and the water feels smooth and oily. According to the In- dians, not only of the vicinity, but far away, the waters. of the lake have strong medicinial qualities, though most white people would hesitate to idopt the mode of treatment pre- scribed. The invalid is buried up to his mouth in the hot volcanic‘mud for from twenty to thirty minutes. Then he is carried, covered with mud, to the edge of the lake, into which, he is plunged for from fifteen to twenty min- dies, after which he is rolled in a. blan- ket and allowed to sweat. on the hot, sulphurous sand or rock near by. The cures wrought are said to be wonderful. —Oregonian. Maryland’s Strong Negro Man.

Throughout the empire of Morocco l and in Tunis there are villages where g the elder members of‘ibe adult popu- 1 lation follow professionally the pur- suit of fattening young ladies for the matrimonial market of Barbary. The Moors, like the Turks and most other orientals, give a decided preference to “moon-faced” wivesover lea-n ones, and are more solicitous as to the num- ber of pounds which their brides weigh ,than about the stock of accom- plishments they possess. A girl is put under the process of fattening when she is about twelve hind her and she is seated on a carpet during so man-y hours every day, while her “papa” stands over her with a matraque, or big stick, and her mother'at times pops into her mouth a . ball of couscoussou, or stiff maize poro ridge, kneaded up with grease and just large enough to be swallowed without the patient choking. If the unfortunate girl declines to be stuffed she is compelled, so that ere , long the poor girl resigns herself to ‘ the torture and gulps down the boluses - lest she should be beaten. In Brazil corpulence is also consid- ered the essential point of female beauty, and the greatest compliment that can be paid to a Brazilian lady is to tell her that she grows fatter and fairer every day—Cincinnati Enquirer. ’ Tnmcrlane on Playing Cards.

Something That Would Make Izaak Wall ton 1‘1“an His Grave. A local genius at Columbus, Ind. is. said to have invented an electric fish- ing réel which is highly successful from one point of view and very do a structive from another. As described in a despatch to The Journal, there i:- inclosed in the fishing line a small wire which is attached to a battery nea'r the fisherman or executioner, and COIlBEL':- ing at the other end with the hooli. When the machine is in action the mo. ment the fish touches the hook it re- ce‘ivcs a shock that kills it. It is sci-a that eighty pounds of fish were killed with the machine in an experimental trial of a few hours. I The inventor seems to be ingeniously diabolical. As a means merely of killing fish, it may have all the merit claimed for it, but it is enough to make old Izaak Walton turn in his grave, if there is enough of him left to turn, or rise to indignant protest. A machine that destroys every element of sport and gives the person who manipulates it every possible advantage over the _ fish has nothing to recommend it ex- ' cept its capacity for killing fish. In this respect it is quite as unsportsman like as dynamite, and only less barba rous in that it only kills one fish at a time instead of scores. It is somewhat remarkable that this infernal machine should have'made its appearance'at the home of the State Fish Commis‘ sioner. Mr. Sweeney has been doing good work in the' way of putting a stop to the unlawful catching and, kill: ing of fish, and if the law can be made to cover this new machine he will doubtless apply it.—-Indlanapolls Jour- nal. ’ _-~.—~ SAFET'Y IN'SEA sATHINé.
