The lichen is remarkable for the great age to which it lives. there being good grounds for believing that the plants endure for 100 years. Their growth is exceedingly slow. almost be~ yond belief. indicating that only a lit- tle nourishment is necessary to keep them alive. In a dry time they have the power to suspend growth alto- gether. renewing it again at the fall of rain. This peculiarity alone is enough to make the lichen a vegetable wonder. as it is a property possessed by no other species of plant. Another interesting fact about lichens is that they grow only where the air is free from dust and smoke. They may be said to be a sure indication of the pu- rity of the air. as they are never found growing in cities and towns where the atmosphere is impregnated with dust. soot, smoke and other impurities.

Thrilling Experience of a Ranger In the Transvaal. Two men at least have given ac- counts of their sensations when they were carried off or lionsâ€"the great ex- plorer Livingsmne and a man named Wolhuter. a manor of game preserve! in the Transvaal Wolhuter’s adven- ture is not secondary in interest to Livingstone‘s experience. His story. which was attested by the certificate of the magistrate of the district. was substantially as follows: He was riding along a Kaflr path about an hour after sunset. It had been a long march. and he had pushed on ahead of his companions. His dog barked at something, and a moment later Wolhuter saw a lion crouching close to him on the right hand side. The ranger turned his horse sharply, a circumstance that no doubt caused the lion to miss the spring. Wolhuter was unseated. At the same moment he saw another lion coming from the opposite direction. The horse rushed off. with the'first lion in pursuit. and the second lion picked Wolhutcr up almost before he touched the ground and gripped him by the right shoulder in such a position that he was face up. with his legs and body dragging underneath the beast. The lion trotted down the path. uttering a loud. growling, purring noise. Suddenly Wolhuter bethought him of his sheath knife. which he carried in his belt behind his right hip. On reach- ing a large tree with overhanging roots the linn stopped. whereupon Wolhutet stabbed him twice in the side with his left hand. It was ascertained after- ward that the first stab touched the bottom of the heart and that the sec- ond one slit it down for some distance. He was found by his companions, who took him to a place of safety. The lion he had killed was an old male. and the weapon used was an ordinary sheath knife.-â€"l\'ew York Tribune. The lion immediately dropped Wol- lmtor, and again the game ranger stnwk him. this time in the throat, severing an artery. “'olhuter got up the tree as fast as his injured arm would permit. and hardly was he seated when the first lion. which had been after the horse, came back on the trail of blood. By this time the plucky ranger was so faint that he tied himself to the tree to prevent himself from falling out. Wolhuter’s sensations were not those of Livingstone, who said he was in a state of apathy. with entire absence 0! pain during the time the lion had him. The game ranger suffered terribly. both mentally and physically. and saw no possible way of escape. The llon took him nearly 200 yards. CARRIED OFF BY A LION.
