The third course consisted of a hot venison pasty or made pie, a hare, a rabbit, some pigeons, partridges, a goose and a ham. Then they topped off with cheese and drank during the meal claret, ale, brandy and tea. They sat at table four or five hours to get away with this meal and afterward drank | port and played cards until 3 o’clock' In the morning. “That wus the way our great-grand fathers ate and their fathers before them ate, If they could afford It, und If they could not they made up In quantity what was lacking In variety and quality.

Ingenious 'Wood flats. The wood rat of the western slopes of Cascade range Is a curious creature thnt loves to steal so well that It Is known to many us the camp robber. It carries off anything It can lay Its lips to and Is besides a jolly, reckless fellow. It does things which rodents are not given to doing. It will take knives, forkB and tin plates, cartridges, cups and anything It can handle la the line of clothing, towels or gun rags, which make soft linings for Its nest. It Is related how a pair of these rats staked off a claim on top of a hunter's camp stove and put up the most curi ous rat house anybody ever heard of. About 200 yards away was a railway sbauty, where the section men kept their supplies, and among other things was a keg of railroad spikes such as are used tb fasten the rails to the ties. The rats took some spikes to their claim, built up an Iron wall and lined the Interior with soft stuff. It Is a curious tact that all the polntB of the spikes were directed outward, and they were laid with great regularity and firmness.—Exchange. JAMES XI FT MANN Attorney and Counsellor at Law.

The manner In which the mother an telope protects her young until they are old and strong enough to Join the full grown bands In their wunilerlugs Is an Interesting and wonderful Instance of nature’s providence. These beauti ful creatures live In pn ijfct.i country Infested by all kinds; of enemies and especially prowled over by the coyote, the gray wolf and the timber wolf, which subsist upon the young of all kinds of animals, yet the mother can easily protect her babies from tbo fiercest of these marauders. The ene my most dreaded Is the souring eagle. There Is a varletyeof cactus, a prick ly plant which grows In great abuu- dunce all over the western plains, which furnishes her the means for this protection. Horses, cattle, buffalo and, In fact, all autmals know the danger of trending on this plant. It gro^rs In. large patches some four or six Inches In height above the ground aud forms a thick inut varying in breadth from the sire of tho top of a man's hat to tnany feet. It Is in the center of one of these patches that the female antelope prepares a pluce of safety for her young. The thorns of this cactus, while very poisonous and terribly pain ful to every other nnlmnl, for some reason are almost harmless to the an telope. The cactus mny lacerate her legs, making them bleed freely, but neither the stickers nor their poison remains, while other animals seldom bleed, hut retain the poisonous stick ers In their wounds until they become malignant sores, causing excessive swelling of the limbs and very great and long continued suffering. When the antelope has selected her patch of cactus, bucking away a few feet, she will make a running jump, bounding high In the air and alighting In the middle of the patch, with nil four feet close together, the hoofs pointing downward. Then, springing out again and repeating this operation until she has chopped the roots of tho cactus plant to pieces, Blie loosens and clears a space large enough for stand ing room. She then will enlarge It by pawing and digging with her sharp hoofs. Here she gives birth to her young In undisturbed security, know ing that she can leave them in com parative snfety during tho day and re turn to them at night to give them suck. Should It be In a locality where eagles abound, however, the mother does not venture far nwny, ns the sour ing eagle often swoops down on the young, taking them away if she Is not there to do battle for their lives.—H.
