One of the greatest wonders of Mada¬ gascar, so famous for its luxuriant vege¬ tation, is the traveler’s tree (Ra venal a Madagascariensis). Its stem resembles that of tho plantain, with which it is otherwise allied; but it sends out its wing like leaves only on two opposite sides, which resemble a large expanded fan. In an aged tree the lowest of these leaves will be from twenty to forty feet from the ground, and on a vigorous trunk there will generally bo, fit least, a score of them with a bright emerald green oblong blade from four to six feet in length. containing The fruit grows In bunches, forty or fifty members, with three or four such bundles to a tree. Each fruit mem¬ ber contains a quantity of the silkiest fiber imaginable, of a purple tint The enclos¬ ing thirty to thirty-five seeds. leaves are used for roof thatching and the leaf stalks twirled together 6erve for the wails of the islanders’ huts. But the most re¬ markable property of this tree, and the one which gives it the distinctive appel¬ lation of Traveler’s tree, is its petioles, which, even in the dryest seasons, always contain water, and Gie wayfarer, if he be tldrstv, has only to pierce the thick base of a leaf stock, to obtain fully a quart of a pure and refreshing liquid.—Hall's Journr.l of Health.
