Fruit which is partially ripe is never fit for canning. Loo]: the cher- ries over very carefully. Do not stem them. Some housekeepers clip of! half the stem. others prefer to remove the whole stem; this is a matter of fancy. When the fruit is all prepared put it into clean cans and cover it with a light syrup, in the proportion of five pounds of granulated sugar to five pints of cold water. This should cans close them. Pack the jars in a large flat-bottomed kettle, and put them on a rack ‘used for the purpose. Pack cloths between the jars to pre- vent their knocking together; or, it more convenient. wisps of hay will do. Pour lukewarm water in. the boiler as high up as the necks of the jars. Let the water boil and cook the cherries this way for fifteen minutes after the wat- er begins to boil. ' be enough syrup for ten quarts of cherries. After filling the jars to the brim with syrup, put on the covers. leaving the rubbers offâ€"or if they are patent At the end of this time remove the jars, one by one. to a shallow pan. con- taining a little boiling water. Take off the covers and fill them up again with boiling syrup. which should have been reserved for the. purpose. Considerable syrup will have been absorbed during the cooking, leaving space for the new syrup. Put on the rubbers and seal the cans up tight. When the jars are cold tighten them again with all your strength. Wipe them off carefully with a cloth and set away where the term erature is not abovesixty degrees.

Select a. tender. plump. young chicken. Singe. dress and cut it up as if for a fricas- ter and then lightly in sifted bread crumbs. Arrange the pieces on a bak- ing-pan and put them in a hot oven to bake. Let the chicken cook in this way for three-quarters of an hour. basting it every fifteen minutes, and turn it after it has browned well on one side. \Vhile the chicken is cooking prepare corn fritters to serve with it. To make these fritters, cut off the cob a cup- fuJ of fresh sweet. corn. or it it cannot be obtained use a oupful of canned corn. drained a little and chOpped. Add pepper and salt. two well-beaten Prepare a cream sauce by pouring a «up of cream in the dripping-pan in which the chicken was baked.

Birds of Various Kinda-A Bunk; Allahâ€"Peculiar I'll-e 1 our own. but we have nothing to match: the huge spider. whose bite causesI fever. nor the belligerent ant known as vivajagua. A scorpion. though not so dangerous as the European variety. proves itself unpleasant enough to the careless traveller. and the chigoe or “jigger,” deals swift retribution to an offender. The method of attack is in- convenient, for it burrows under the toe nails, and unless removed at once builds its nest there. In that case in~ flammation occurs. and the only reliet is the painful operation of having the little animal out out. Snakes are not numerous, but they include some of the freaks of the ani- mal Kingdom. The huge majs, longer than two six feet men set end to end; with a. body twenty inches in circum~ ference. looks fierce enough and for- midable enough to put a whole regi- ment to flight. It is all a bluff, for the big reptile is harmless. Among the birds. the "soldier may exercise his taste for pets. Those pe- culiar to the island have beautiful plumage. rich in colouring. There are nearly 200 kinds to be found there. and among them all the vulture and the turkey buzzard are almost the only birds of prey. They are so useful as scavengers to carry away waste ma- terial that they are protected from death by law. Geese, turkeys, pea- cocks and pigeons are' the most fami- liar domestic fowls. and pigs, sheep. goats. mules and horses. The Cuban horses are almost a race by themselves. They are very gentle. they never kick nor bite nor play any unseemly tricks on their riders. In some parts of the island horses receive as much consideration as a member oh the family. They are not tied or con- fined. 6but they wander about the door yard, put their heads into the kitchen windows to exchange the time of day. and even on occasion have the privilege of entering the house. The sight of hu- mans and equities on terms of such easy- familiarity makes one wonder if the days of Gulliver and his horse country have come again. Sometimes the roads are very bad and the mud so sticky that it holds any foreign substance like glue. For this reason farmers braid their horses’ tails, turn them up over their backs and tie them to the saddle. No Northern pony. would stand this indignity, but the Cub. an pack animals seem quite willing to endure it. In mountainous regions mules are used to carry coffee and sugar down the mountain paths, and to save drivers mules in long procession are tied together, one's head to anoth- er's tail, and with only one man at the head of the column to guide the leader, they carry down their burdens safely. The hind legs of Cuban mules must be worked on a different principle from that in vogue among United States mules. Here no insurance agency would insure a man whose business was tying mules to one another's tails. The only wild animal peculiar to Cuba is the jutia, or hutia. It is rat-shaped. black, and small. It lives in the hollows of trees, like our squirrel, and eats leaves and fruit. Its flesh is insipid, but it is often eaten. Curious modificatons of felines and canines inhabit the woods. The animals have sprung from dogs and cats in the domestic state and differ from them only in theirsize and habits. Some of the intelligence of the civiliza- tion seems to remain with them, and} they cause the farmer much anxiety by their carefully planned attacks ‘ UPON HIS POULTRY AND CATTLE.

It is the popular belief that the flight. of birds is much swifter than that of the insects. but a number of naturalists who have been making a study of the matter think that such is not the case. A common house fly for example, is not very rapid in its flight, but its wings make 800 beats a second. and send it through the air twentyâ€"five feet. under ordinary cir- cumstances, in that space of time. When the insect. is alarmed, however, it has been found that it can increase its rate of speed to over 150 feet per second. If it could continue such ra- pid flight for a mile in a straight line it would cover that distance in exactly thirty-three seconds. Another curiosity is a cane made from the dried skin of the manateo. or v.-wvv-J vâ€"â€"â€"- It is not an uncommon thing when travelling by rail in the summer time to see a bee or a wasp keeping up with the train and trying to get in one of the windows. A swallow is consid- ered one of the swiftest of flying birds, and it was thought until ashort time ago that no insect could es- cape it. A naturalist tells of an excit- ing chase he saw between a swallow and adragon fly. which is among l: he swiftest of insects. The insect flew with incredible speed. and wheel- ed and dodged with such ease that the swallow, despite its utmost efforts, completely failed to overtake and cap- ture it.
