The Dissrustlnar Habit la Common in All Countries. 1 Tribes of Indians Who Mix Mad with Their Dread Home Singular Rea sons for the Abominable W Practice. Among the extraordinary passions for eating uncommon things must be reckoned that which some people exhib- M"if carin or uiay. ji una prau- tice, which would appear to have once- prevailed all over the world, says the Philadelphia Times, numerous exam- pies were cited by Capt. J. G. Bourke, United States army, in the ninth an- wnen e woria nual report of the bureau of ethnology. en?wn"1 Hot In some places the custom has degen- hTa all crated into a ceremonial while in uiutis lire caung OI miS Strange IOOa still prevails as a kind of necessity to tho lives of those who are addicted to it. I The Mexican devotees picked up a 1 piece of clay in the temple of Tezcatli poca and ate it with the greatest rever ence, and also ate a piece of earth in swearing by the sua and earth. Hut the use of clay by the Mexicans was not merely a matter of ceremony, for the substance seems to have been an esculent in common use. Edible earth was sold openly in the markets of Mex ico and appears in the list of foods given by Gomara. Cabeza de Vaca says that the Indians of Florida ate clay, and that the natives offered him many mesquite beans, which they ate mixed with earth. Vene gas asserted that the Indians of Cali fornia ate earth. The traditions of the Indians of San Juan Capistrano and vicinity show that they had fed upon a kind of clay which they often used upon their heads by way of ornament. The Tatu Indians of California, accord ing to Powers, mix red earth into their acorn bread to make the latter sweet and cause it to go further. Sir John Franklin writes that the banks of the Mackenzie river contain layers of a kind of unctuous mud which the Tin nch Indians used as food during the seasons of famine, and even at other times chew as an amusement. It has a milky taste and the flavor is not disa greeable. The Apache and Navajo branches of the Athabascan family of North American In'Jians are not un acquainted with the use of clay as a comestible, although among the former it is now rarely used, and among the latter in employed only as a condiment to relieve the bitterness of the taste of the wild potato. In the same manner it is known to both the Zuni and the Tusayan. In South America, likewise, the eat ing of clay prevails among the Indians on the banks of the Orinoco, through out Brazil and on the mountains of Bolivia and Peru. In western Africa the negroes of Guinea have long been known to eat a yellowish earth called by them "caouuc," and the flavor and taste of which is very PToeable to them and said to cause them no inconvenience. Some addict themselves so excessively to the use of it that it becomes to them a real necessity, and no punishment is sufficient to restrain them from the practice of consuming it. When the Guinea negroes were in former tunes carried as slaves to the West India islands they were observed to continue the custom of eating clay But tho "caouac" of tho American islands, or the substance which the pour negroes attempted to substitute in tlioir new homes for tho African earth was found to injure the health of the slaves who ute it, nml so the practice was long ago forbidden and hits possi bly now died out in the West India colo nies. In Martinque, a sm'cies of red earth or yellowish tufa was formerly neeretly sold in the markets, but tin1 use of it has probably ceused iu the French colonies also. In eastern Asia a similar practice prevails in varioun places. In the i .hincl of Java, between Sourabaya and Samara ng, Labiilnrdiero saw small square reddish, cakes of earth sold in the villages fur tho purpose of being eaten. I hose were found by Lhren berg to consist for the most part of the remains of microscopic animals nml plants which had lived and been de posited in fresh water.

It is in .the tropical countries of South America, however, where all forms of insect and vegetable life at tain their highest development, that this great spider is most deadly. And further north, in the provinces of Mex ico, where it is quite as numerous, its poison is only a slight degree less dangerous. There we have met it everywhere and studied its habits. In the orange orchards, the vineyards and the open prairies we have watched it attack enemies many times its own size, and marveled at the ease with which it overcame them. Even its own kind are not exempt from its fierce on slaught, and we remember once seeing a pair of them meet on the upturned root of a fig tree and fight a duel to the death the death of both. Of man it seems to have no fear whatever, and will attack without hesitation either his hand or his foot, if they come within striking distance. In doing so it stands upon its four hind legs. It opens wide its enormous fangs until the mandibles protrude in a straight line from its face; then, with all the muscular force it is capable of, launches itself forward, sinking them with a vicious thrust deep into the flesh of the enemy. ETIQou 1 1 1 rOri A CAT. Tabby Gets a Lesson Iu Good Manners from a Youug Alllcator. A cat is lawless. A dog can be taught to come when called; a cat is heedless of the most persuasive invitations to pre sentherself. The dog is obedient to rule; a cat despises etiquette, unless Bhe has been taught to heed it by a more or less severe lesson. Here Is an illustra tion, exhibited by a "Tabby" mentioned in St. Nicholas: Tabby manifested curiosity, mixed ! with jealousy, wheu Beelzebub, the al ligator, was installed as a family pet. She acquired the habit of walking up to him and showing her displeasure by cutting him with ler paw. Then sht would retire as if she had performed t duty. This was done once too often, for Beelzebub had harbored In his memory her former insults, and this last one proved too much for his injured spirit. His eyes flashed with a yellowish light, and when Tabby was walking away he scrambled after her, seized her tail and clung to it viciously. This frightened the bully, and she stnrted on a race around the room, taking aerial flights over chairs and ta bles, with Beelzebub desperately cling ing to her tail. Wheu we released the panic-stricken Tubby we were surprised to find that Beelzebub was none the worse for his wild experience, and with widely dis tended jaws he breathed a generul de fiance; but Tabby had received a lesson, unit she never molested Beelzebub again.
