At a mcetiu of scientist in Paris S3 intereatjng ooiuuunication was rooeived fromM. Hoffman 'eganbng the methoda emoloYod by th 'th American Indian to poison thafc arrow putots. The Comanches simply pierce the green shell of tb Spaa'sh bayonet cr vuoca aagustifolia with thtf points. The Apache Cayoters, He) brdw up the heads of rattlosn-vkes with ifagments of deer's liver, uilow the artw to become putrid, then dip the arrow points, and allow then to dry slowly. The Chinoun (Moquisof Arizona) irritate a rattlesnake until ho bites himself, and then dip tha point and a portion of the wood of the arrow into the blood of the animal A wound with one of these arrows generally proves fatal in three or four dsri, and its action is much more rapid If the stomach of the wound! person is empty at the time the injury received.

Another poison is obtained by Irritating bees, shaking the hive, and then killing them when in this state with small branches bunched together. The insects are crushed up in a mass with mortar and pestle, ind the arrow points are dipped ia the magma. It is probable the actire substance in this case consists in tits forraio acid contained in the bodies of the beea. ThU preparation does not cause death, but induces long-continued sickness. Another very active but not fatal poison is prepared from rod ants.

Iu 1571 the familiar figure failed to pnt in an appearance for three successive days, and tba police set about inquiring what had beoome cf him.

They found him, only to see him carried to his last lodging before the week was out; but not before he had made a confession, unless the story made public regarding him was a pure invention. It was a strange one. Serving undor the Russian Government in the Circassian diamond mines, be had iu the course of his duties, oome into possession of a stone of such extraordinary sine and beauty that the temptation to appropriato it roved irresistible. That waa easily one. To get away with it was not so easy.

Making an incision in his neck large enough to receive the diamond1, he waited untu the skin had grown over it Then he asked for a holiday on the score of ill-health, and escaping the vigilanoe of the searchers reached Amsterdam with his spoil. There he disposed of it for something like twelve thousand pounds, the diamond eventually passing by purchase into the heads of Us proper owner the Czar.

Home and Its Influence. Oh! the music iu that word home. It brings back to us a sweet strain from the heart of our memory.

To the young it ia a reminder of all that is near and dear to them. Our noblest, best men, the lending men of our nation, derived the elements of their character from maternal care bestowed upon them in childhood. Who molds our characters while we are yet young? Certainly our mother does. There is no influence so powerful as hers upon the rising generation. She who shapes the characters of our great and good men, to her it also falls to train those who are to be mothers when she ia no more, and to do for this generation what she has done for hers.

Pore's Teachableness, President Lincoln once said that he was willing to learn from any one who could teach him anything. Dore seems lo have had a liko spirit. Borne ton ago, a clever young Englishwoman something more than an amateur artist was Drought one day by some friend ta ore's studio. Unlike most Englishwomen, this was a very impulsive and irrepressible youn person, and she offered the frankest criticism of all the works around. The picture on which Dore was then engaged cccupiqd her attention particularly; and, not content with recommending various improvements, she suddenly caught the brush from the artist's hand, and saying, coolly, "Don't you think, M.

Dore, that a touch of this kind would be an improvement there?" he actually altered the artist's work with her own audacious fingers. Her friends were rather astounded, and one of them afterward took occasion to apologize to Dore for the impulsiveness of the young lady. Dora seemed only surprised to find that any apology or explanation should be considered necessary. lie thought there was some justice in the suggestion thus practically mado, and it seemed to him quite natural that one artist should help another. It did not seem to have occurred to him that there was anything presumptuous in the volunteer effort of the young beginner to lend a helping hand to one of the most celebrated and succeHsful artists of the day.

The house was jammed. The boys in the two pews allotted to the reporters had noticed tho absence of the representatives of the Times. But suddenly one nudged another, saving, 'Look up there. And there was Joe in the chancal with the clergy, surplicod, and intoning with the rest. "Joo afterward explained that, finding it impossible to get in the house and do his work, he looked around and found a rear door, and seeing men dodging in and boys throwing a surplice over their shoulders, he followed suit, and let them supply him with the veaV ment cloth.

He was thus able to make hia report." Chicago Daily Newi, Sam Patch's Death. The business or industry of going over water-falls and maelstroms was started in this country many years ago by a simple-minded fellow named Samuel Patch, who lived at Pawtucket, It. While at work on the roof of a high building that stood beside the Blackstone river, at the head of the Pawtucket falls, Patch slipped, and, seeing that he must go, jumped with all his might into the raging torrent A few moments later he landed safely some distance below the cataract There waa a deal of talk about the exploit then deemed a marvel, and Patch took it into his head that jumping falls would be a paying business. He tried it successfully in many places, but tried it onco too often. An old ballad says Twa-i at the falls of CfoneMe That Bam made hia last dlr; Headlong be plunged Into the floe4 iiid ne er oome oat alive.

Bnt tradition records that Sam had partaken too freely of his favorite beverage, rum, before essaying the fatal leap, and that the responsibility of his failure belongs not to water, but to the popular stimulant which he so much aiFected. The mother of Samuel Patch survived him many years, living at Pawtucket in respectable widowhood, and often relating to visitors the story of hat eon's strange career. la the lungi are 174,000,000 he les cr calls, and the lungs, if spread oat, would cover a surface 80 times greater than the body.
