How Frogs IIulp Farmers.

Th* Turcoman** Cnrlou* Charm.
[Cor. Norristown Herald.]
Those who have read that very en
joyable book, “The Story of tho Merv,”
will remember tho description Mr.
O'Donovan gives of tho Evs or houses of
the Turcomans and tho curious charm ho
found in most of them. He says.
“Within tho roof, and ne.tr its top,
hang a couple of lamb or goat skins,
turned inside out, and smoko dried.
The neck-aperture is kept widely open
hy four crossed sticks. These skins

of various insects aud other substances
determined by the examinations arc ns
follows: Infects, 80 per cent.; spiders,
5 per cent.: sow-bugs, 1 per cent.,
and tho balance, vegetable mat
ter of various kinds. Of the in
sects, over half are known to bo
injurious, and one-quarter are on the
doubtful list. Much of tho vegetubN*
matter (loaves, etc.,) was probably
swallowed accidentally, along with the
insects and spiders. Nearly all tin
stomachs contained grasshoppers, and
in one they made up 7(1 per cent, of the
contents. The Carabid beetles formed a
large part of tho fond taken by sotno'w’
the frogs. Tho Strawberry Crown
Girdlcr was well represented, as also
were several other pests of the garden.
Much has been said for and against tlm
frogs, the robiu, nnd the crow, hut there
is no evalence of usefulness more posi
tive than the finding of largo numbers
of injurious insects in the stomachs of
these creatures.
that ambergris issues from a tree,
which manages to shoot its roots into the
water, seeking the warmth therefrom in
order to deposit the fat gum of which it
is tho soured “When that fat gum is
shot into the sea, it is so tough that it
is not easily broken from the root un
less by the strength of its own weight.
If yon plant such trees where tho stream
sets to the shore, then tho stream will
cast it up to great advantage.”
In course of time it was found that
this prec’ous commodity was generated
in the whale i.sclf. An American doc-
lor residing iu Boston made it public
in 1724 that somo Nantucket whalemer,
in cutting up a spermaceti whale, had
found about twenty pounds of tho val
uable substance, which, they said, was
contained in a cyst or bag without
either outlet or inlet. As n mutter of
fact, ambergris, which is nn important
drug, is a morbid secretion in tho in-
test ines of tlio sperm whale. The I’a-
ii lie whalers search keenly for this
commodity, and largo finds of it some
times bring them a rich reward.

Inventive Cienlu* or Italian*.
[MilanCor. San Francisco Chronicle.]
I was surprised to find how ninny ex
cellent inventions tho Milanese possess.
Those about the house were particularly
noticeable. The upjxr panels of the bed
room doors were swung on hinges and
fastened with thumb-screws—an excel
lent device for ventilating the room.
The bedstead rollers traveled in n light
iron rail, which slid Uj>on tho carpet and
thus saved it from being cut by the
wheels. The bolts to tho closed doors
displayed the word “Libro” when open
ana *'Cecil pio” when shut. All this
was a revelation to me. I fancied the
