Ilanucr will laugh herself to death tree from within, and even cutting it down does not exterminate it; it con- tinues to grow after it is lying on the ground. The nullah tree of the East Indies is also almost impossible to kill. It can be cut and backed in any shape, and although uprooted and allowed to lie on the sandy plains for months an upright branch or new trunk will grow. At Umballa, Bengal, India, there is a large tree that has had an experience. It. is situated on the camping ground used for regiments passing through Um- balla, or for the infantry regiments which come down from the hill stations in winter for drill on the plains. The canteen tent is pitched near it, and the soldiers derive a great benefit from this curious tree, as the prostrate portion answers the purpose of two long seats and the upright part Serves as a. shade from the hot sun. Another strange plant, be10nging somewhat to this species. is the devil plant, found near Lake. Nicaragua. It is ofsuch a dead- ly nature that it destroys all insects and Vegetable life in its vicinity. Nothing Seems to be able to kill it, and though it has been burned down several times, it springs up again in vigorous life, without any loss of vitality. In Jamaica there is to be found the lil'c.plant, also almost impossible to kill. The writer knows it to bc a fact that when a leaf is out of? and hung up by a string to dry or wither, it sends out white threadlike roots, gathers moisture from the air, and begins to grow new leaves. And still further, when it is pressed and packed away in a botanist’s her-barium it has really been known to outgrow the leaves of the book in which it was placed. The only Way known to kill it is by applying a red-hot iron to it, or by steeping it in boiling water. These few examples give some idea of the extraordinary creations of the vege- table world, many of which must appear incredible to the unscientific. They do not realize that there is an infinitely greater variety of species in the vege table world than in that part of the animal world visible to their eyes. The trees and plants mentioned are among those whose extraordinary qualities are well authenticated. There have been many reports of still more remarkable vegetables, which, while they are not clearly verified by scientific works, can- not be proved to bo untrue. For in- stance, there is the plant which feeds on meat, and which, while it ordinarily nourishes itself on small birds and micd, shows a fondness for raw beef when it is placed in its way. Another has the power of‘ coating itsch with copper ex- tracted from the soil in which it grows.
