Cold of great intensenees marked the period ; for day* the mercury lingered round tne zero point, oftener below than abova. High win 1 prevented much outdoor work ; deep MOW fell, blowing aometioM* in great nlouda. The great lake* froze far out from (bore, and knowing one* looked fora late opening in the epriag. Bat suddenly in January a warm wind blew strongly from tb* sooth- weet, and feroed the ice in Like Brie down into the men th of the Niagara River. In great piece* it began to poor into the rapide and over the fall*, aad it filled the gorge below fr >tn bank lo bank. People ventured th* old prediction that tb* back of the winter wa* broken, and outdoor lif* became aetir*. Asrdrew Harry, tb* famou* hunter and tory teller ef Niagara, looked oat of nn door early oa the morning of UM fourth day of the thaw, soBsllug the air and eorchiag the heavoas for indications bowing what the weather would be lor the neit twelve hoar*. The aouth wind Mill . blow, the air teemed haiy, and far ahovo he aw th* clouds moving, a* b* iaid, against th* wind. Bio boo* judgment told him there would b* a change, but the fever of the hunt wa* upon him, and he determined to voator* fcr the day into th* forest* on the fl*a*disa nda. Ho thought that hi* ohaaoo* for a doer were good. Th* *now wa* *oH, a* tracking would bo ea*y, and b* gus**sil that by rapper lime he would be back skusaisg hi* big gamo in hi* *b*d.

Then ho boiled water oa th* Move, cooked a half doxoa of egg* until they were hard, pat ap alt and a lot of tod popper for seasoning, and tucked' it all away in hi* gaa* bag together wtlh a half a loaf of broad. La*t of all ho titled a fta*k with old .tcoteh. and hid it in a deep pocket. He wa* ready for th* wood* an 1 a long day's tramp, and he pod ewav before thoran wa* up, across to* new bridge and down th* further bank. Too onow wa* d**per and loftor than he had eappossd Ho turned book to borrow a pair ef new*hoo* from a neighbor. an<i Veu sped on again. H* rounded th* head ot tne whirlpool and entered th* wood* which at that day covered tho ceu-ury lo the edge of the osoualatn. Hurry wandorod long ender the anow- Ia4on tre** search lag for game that he fail- ad to tind until late la th* forenoon. lh*n he found trace* of a d**r wh*r* it had lowly foroed it* way through the deep now. An-1r*w took ap th* trail and puah- d along ai fast a* po**ibl*. Whoa h* *aw, far through th* tree* and underbrush, the brown form ol tho fame, he raised hi* (an and Sred quukly. The door started off, but th* toll-tale Une of blood ihowed that i had been wounded. Hurry followed the rail. ItlaJ toward the edge of th bluffs abov* th* river. Suddenly it (topped. Tho hunter wa* anacod. There wa* no path loading down th* steep bank* to the river below, and th* only conclusion wa* that th* deer had jumped off. D*or won getting soaro* ia th* Niagara country, and if Hurry loet law on* there wa* littlscbaaoe tbath* would fiad another that day. H* thorefor* decided to go to tho botiom of tho gorge. The path wa* roundabout and long. He went northward a mile or more, and then scrambled down into the lew-lying Fosters Flat*.

Suddenly ho felt th* north wind blow up the gone- It increased swiftly, aad *ooa ho wa* buried in cloud* of whirling mow. It became cold. H* ooulJ hardly se through th* blinding storm. H* became fearful for hi* *af*ty, but b* ooald not retreat ia the face ef the gate, ao h* looked for shelter. He know that h* had ***n often from th* Am*rioan tido, about a mil* below th* whirpool, a deep oavo at tb* very ba*e of th* Canadian cliff*. H* found it aad crawled in. It wa* quiet inside.

Then he at* an egg or two, Modwiched with a piece of bread, aad finally, lighting _ hi* pipe, aat down, fairly satisfied with bis unrounding*. He duzod a little, but a duturbanc-o in hi* nr* aroupud him : h* looked and wan lorprieed to **e that hi* back log wa* mianng.

Harry, too, began to and he withdraw to the other end of the oave. By morning he was completely shut in.

Then, agaia, ha felt the seat mov* under him ; thote oould he no mutac* this time, so getting ap b* looked at it, but it eeemed all right. Then h* kicked it aad wa* surprised to (eel it give and*r his too. He was dumbfounded He kaew all th* kind* of rook* on the frontier, aad he never before saw oa* which would give. Striking a match, he examined it closely, aad he wa* alartted to Bad th* rook was nothing bat a groat roll of rattl*-*nak*a. They wre torpid, half frozen, and in tho mrdst of their winter deep. The heat of the cave wa* undoubtedly having it* effect on them, aad they wen waking ap. Then hi* quick wit* told him that hi* misting back log wa* a aaak* which tb* warmth of tb* fir* bad brought back to lit*. For a tim* b* was sale, for the ball wa* not folly awake, bat he hunted up tho back log aad mathed it over th* head. Aftef half aa hour Hurry went back to look at bis collection of aaakea.

Some- thing must b* do is, and that at once, Andnw jumped quickly for the ma**** of 10* which had fallen oo the floor nod rapidly throw them over TH* WKII:HI.IM; Bat it wa* not enough. H* jerked out his hunting knife aad carved larg* bit* horn th* oak** at th* doorway. Ho worked last, aad he law th* ice wa* having some effect oo the snako*. H* increaeoa hie effort*, and at last bo got the whole mass covered. bat not before he had cut through tho ico door, letting in tho chilly air. He brought in ano w, ami packed that in the open place* between the piece* of ioo, until he had at last aoiid snowball. Not until this* as all don* did h* feel **f*. The itorm ttill raged outside, and it was already dirk, so he prepared to pass another sight in tho cavern, fooling sure, however, that tho ins,kei would not now disturb him. Th* next morning opened olaar and calm; the storm wa* ovr and Harry could start homtward ; but h* determine.! that first, ho would put aa end to th* snakes, ono* aad for all. H* cr*pt outside and waded through the deep enow until b* roaohod th* neareet woods. Then h* oat a long, (tout polo.

H* found them trr/.en. Uimg th* pole s* a lever, h* (lowly rolled the ball toward th* door. Not a snake ttirred. Finally he got the mass ouuule, aod cent it splashing into th* river. It disappeared with th* current down the stream. Hurry knew that if the Make* wore not drowned or dashed to death oo the rock* and ledge* in the river they would float into the solid ico Held which filled th* etill water at L* wtiton at th* foot of th* rapid*. Hen they would remain frozen until ipring. Water and froit would undoubtedly end them. A mouth later Hurry wa* at Lewitton, and h* taw frozen solidly into the ic* oppooit* th* dock a round, black object which b* knew matt be hi* ball of naks* One warm day in the succeeding month of April, ]utt after th* ic* had left th* ttill water* of the river, the people of Lewiiton reported a pest of *orpeot*.

At length the peet wa* ekterm nated, bat not before an enormous follow bad b**n killed in the village store and placed on si hi Jut ioo in th* window. The snake had batons eye.

Part of the** changes take place in th* mouth when th* food i* subdivided by the proceo* of chew- ing or mastrealion, and part ar* Bad* by th* action of the juice* of th* itomaoh upon the maa*. Nourishment depends upon th* complete- ness with whioh food i* changed by th* prooisn* of masticalioa and digestion, la this modern era, when everything i* done with a ruin, there is gnat danger of throw- ing upon the stomach mor* work than it can do, by th* hasty and inefficient manner in whicn w* chew our food. Hen we perceive the groat province of cooking that of aa intermediary agent between an insufficient, mastication and an overtaxed totnacb. la other words, cook- ing may be made to s*rve, to some degree, the purpose of mastication.
