The following collection of gcographIcul peculiarities ubout t lie United Stales and places therein embodies certain unique points well worth remembering. A novel way to demonstrate the size of the stato of Texas is to snread out a map of the union and stretch a siiin;; across Taxas tlie longest way. Then, placing one end of the measure at Chicago, one will And that the other end will extend Into either the Atlantic ocean or the gnlf of Mexico. The two largest counties in the United States are Custer county. Mont., and San Hernardlno couniv. Cal.

A nearly parallel case Is at Harpers Ferry, where the train stops a few minutes to allow the passengers to annul Him enjoy n view wuioii permits them to look into three states, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia. The highest and lowest elevations in this country are in California, within 100 miles of each other. The loftiest is Mount Whitney, 14,490 foot hish, and tlie lowest is Death valley, about 450 feet below the level of the sea. Two Oceans pass, in Yellowstone park, is so named because, whenever there is a shower in the vicinity and a ccrtalu small creek overflows, its | waters spread out over the edge of the continental divide and nass into tributaries of rivers which tlow to the At lautiu una iu i nc? rui'iuc.? uusion Globe. POISON TREES. They Are Found In Only Two Places In the World. In only two places in (lie world, Queensland ami the west coast ?f Africa, can there bo found that most remarkable of nature productions, the Erythrophloeum laboucheri (or poison tree). Referring (o this tree in speaking at n meeting of the Sydney Natural History society, A. Moston. fortuerlv protector of nhoriirlnos in north. crn Queensland, says that when in full foliage It is one of the mosi beauliful trees In the world. The wood Is elegantly grained and marked by colors and peculiar streaks which readily distinguish it from any other known timber. It is extremely hard and tough, and the blacks of the Cape York peninsula use it for making their woomeras. with which they throw the spear. The tree bears long rods containing beans, which, like the leaves, IN, /'it'll ?/ * rill niiln.iil liT., v stomach of a dead goat or a dead sheep may show only llireo or four undigoslod green loaves.
