Where the Largest Birds Have Lived.
The countries south of the equator
furnish fossils of the largest bird
forms that have been developed on
the earth. New Zealand, Australia,
Madagascar, and South America,
making the circuit of the globe, with
great intervening stretches of oceaD,
ail present fossils of the various fami
lies of these great birds, attaining in
New Zealand a height of some ten to
twelve feet, and in Madagascar a
height of considerably greater. Dur-
ing the first settlement of New Zea
land by Europeans the bones still lay
scattered in great quantities on the
surface, and were also found imbedded
in the marshes where, for some cause
or other, the buds had huddled to
gether by the hundreds.
It is hardly necessary to state that
none of these huge tirds were flyers.
Some, in fact, were wingless. They
are interesting as illustrating the
limit to which the principle of flight
is carried in the application of nature,
as she could neither concentrate the
muscular wing force necessary to
flight, nor combine wing material to
stand the necessary beating of the at
mosphere in aerial propulsion.
The still existing emu, cassowary
and ostrich, representatives of the
largest bird life, have wings to aid
them as runners, but they are all ut
terly incapable of flight. These an
cient birds, known as moas and whose
families are known as Dromornis, tl: e
Espyoms and Bronternis, have no
fair modern representatives, and in
common with myriads of other life
forme, seem to have met, in some
mutation of nature, sudden and uni
versal death. It is a curious fact that
while these were strictly land birds
their distribution extended around
the earth, while their habitats were
separated by vast expanses of ocean.
If we may assume that the Southern
continents were nearly or quite con
nected, when the area between the
Rocky and Apalachian Mountains was
the Mississippi Sea, prior to the rush
of waters southward, then this distri
bution problem around the Southern
hemisphere solves itself.—Pittsburg
Dispatch.
Terrapin Farming.
Messrs. A. B. Riggin & Qo., have
just completed another diamond-back
terrapin enclosure on the Annamesstx
River, adjoining Crisfield, says the
Baltimore American. The enclosure
is formed by driving sixteen-foot
boards in the mud to the depth of six
feet, or to the hard bottom, making a
secure pen for the terrapin. About
two acres of muddy bottom are fenced
in, with knolls exposed here and
there, interspersed with salt water,
which is constantly renewed by the
ebbing and flowing of the tide. There
are also artificial banks of sand in
which the terrapin deposit their eggs,
leaving them to be hatched by th
heat of the sun. Eggs are usually
deposited from June to the middle of
August, and soon hatch in the warm
utnmer sun. A grown terrapin will
'ay twelve eggs at a time, and lay
twice during .ihe season. Terrapins
require about three years to become
full “counts.”
Duriug the winter the terrapin
plow deeply into the mud and lie dor
mant, requiring no food or attention,
only warm quarters. When they
wake up in the spring they develop
a vigorous appetite, and are fed prin
cipally on hard-shell crabs, which
they devour with great greed. After
a few days’ feeding they learn to come
to the feeding place with the eager
ness of chickenß in a barnyard.
At the close of last season the
Messrs. Riggin had 3,600 young
terrapin on hand.
That Wonderful Baby Boy.
The proud young mother had come
to pay her first visit, accompanied by
the infant son and heir and his nurse.
“I don’t wish to appear in any way
partial,” said she, “but really for a
child of sixteen months I consider
Algernon a marvel of intelligence.
He understands every word that is
said, and joins in the conversation
with a sagacity that almost alarms me
at times. Speak to the lady, Algernon.”
“800 boo,” said Algernon.
“Listen to that!” cried the de
lighted mother. “He means how do
you do ? Isn’t in wonderful
“Now, Algernon, ask the lady to
play for you (he adores the piano)
Now, Algie, dear,” (very coaxingly)
‘ ‘Boo-boo !” said Algernon.
‘ ‘He means music by that! ‘Boo
boo’—music. Isn’t he too smart for
anything? Now, love, tell the lady
mamma’s name.”
“800-boo!” said Algernon.
‘ ‘That’s right. ‘Boo-boo’—Louise !
Uy name’s Louise, you know. Oh,
dear, Ido hope he isn’t too clever to
live! Now, say by-by to the lady,
precious.”
“800-boo,” said Algernon.
“ ‘Boo boo’—by-by. Why, upon
my word there’s hardly any difference
Bless his little darling heart! Isn’t
he a wonder?”

Map Out Your Course.
The man who starts in pursuit of
fortune without carefully surveying
the ground and laying down his line
of march beforehand, is a reckless
Absalom, who is pretty sure to be
caught by the “wait a-bit” thorns of
speculation and left helplessly strug
gling in their midst, a ridiculous spec
tacle to all right minded men.
Map out your course, young man,
before you set forth on your business
journey. While you are still out of
the tumult and turmoil of the busy
world adopt a set of principles. Let
them be such as your conscience and
common sense approve. Then fashion
a code of laws for your future govern
ment—rules of conduct, based on the
duties you owe to God, to your neigh
bor and to yourself.
“Don't wait until you are assailed
by temptation or beset with difficul
ties to determine what you shall do in
either dilemma. Determine in ad
vance what ought to be done under
certain circumstances, and when they
occur, do it. You are better qualified
to judge rightly what is just and pru
dent in any contingency before the
contiugency is upon you, than you
can be in the moment of difficulty.
In your trouble, don’t trust to the im
pulse of the moment. Impulse is a
blind guide in serious matters. Refer
back to your chart. This has been
the practice of wise and good men
from time immemorial.
Experience is, no doubt, a capital
teacher, but her lessons are bitter;
and if you begin life with a cool head,
an honest purpose, a dauntless spirit,
and fixed principles and rules of con
duct of the right kind, you will be all
the more likely to escape the lash of
that hard task-mistress. Lay your
oourse straight in the beginning, and
stick to it as closely as you can, in
storm and in sunshine. Providence
is the underwriter for those who sail
this “sea of troubles” by the chart of
honor and the compass of prudence,
and even if blown on the rocks they
are not likely to perish there for lack
of help.
Timei and Times.
Human nature loses sight of pres
ent blessings and longs for the so
called good old times.
The truth is, times were never as
good as now, in the history of the
present generation. More luxuries
are enjoyed by the poor as well as the
rich than ever before. Those who
will take time to sum up the advan
tages of the past and present must
admit the fact. In the so-called good
old times it required half a year to
cross the continent; now it can be
done in half a week. But maybe
those times are too remote ; well, well,
at a later period only the rich could
enjoy the luxury of railroad travel,
costing as it did 10 oents a mile; now
the poorest darkey in the land joins
in pleasure excursions at a cent and a
half. Then the rich only could enjoy
the benefits of the telegraph, now its
benefits are within the reach of all.
Those were the days of costly literature
when it cost almost a fortune to get
a library, now books may be had for
a trifle. And those were the days—
the good old times when school
children peeped their eyes out by
tallow candles or broke their backs
and melted before pine knot fires
trying to escape the school master’s
old fashion hickory ; now the Roches
ter burner and the bright electric
light. Then a tiny picture for a
thumb paper was a treasure to fight
about; now the poorest family may
ornament their rooms for almost
nothing.
Ah, well, there is no need to draw
the contrast further. Some people
will enntinue to sigh for the good old
times, and cattle will continue to look
away from luxuriant pastures to
former barren haunts.
A Hungry Boy and Dog.
A waif of a boy was eating a stale
half-loaf on the street corner with the
air of a starveling, when a stray dog
came along and crouched at his feet.
The hungry look remained in the boy’s
eyes, but he glanced down at the vag
abond deg and said in a friendly way :
“Wot you want ? This ain’t no bone.
Git.”
The dog moved off a little, and
again it crouched and looked wistfully
at the food.
“Say, do you want this wuss nor I
do?” asked the waif. “Speak, can’t
yer ?” The dog gave a quick bark
and the boy threw him the rest of the
loaf.
“Nuffsed,”he remarhed, as he
watched him eat ravenously ; “I ain’t
the feller to see a pard in trouble.”
And the boy went one way and the
dog another, both the better for the
encounter.
The scrofulous taint which may
have been in your blood for years,

dangerous it is to take chloroform.
