CAUGHT IN A QUICKSAND.
A ThrlUng (Sketch.
. It is now quite a number of years' since
two old bunters, Bock Strading and Tora
Snuffle wero hunting with me in tho
Western part of Texas, just south of
the famous El Cano Estacado. We had
gone into the interior moro for sport
than anything eise, oaring, very l|fc-;
tie whether wo secured mme game than,
answered for our immediate wanbi o.
not.
Penetrating still further and fur
ther toward tue Mexican dominion, wo
finally struck a barren "parched country,
upon which we entered with com?-hesi
talion.
"Thls*looks aa though wo shan't find
any water, I remarked, as wo'roincd up
our horses and took a survey of tho ftrid
plain.
"Does look rather ak?ery/'. jepHed
Stradllng, tnkinglbia short, block pipe
from his mouth, "but I guess we'll try ft.
It'll make a sort of variety to this eternal
tramping." ll
"But what will wo do without water Y"
I asked.
"Why, you Bec, th?ro is water four or
five miles back of us; so we can go ahead
for a day, and,!/we can't And anything,
why. we can'turn rotind and make back
tracks. It'll go rather tough bnt it won't
hurt os. My idea," continued the trap
per, growing philosophical, "is, that wa
never know what water is till we've gone
. two or three days without it, just as tho
only way toge! a good, sound, refreshing
sleep is to sit up for a oouplo of night*."
So it was concluded that we should von
turo upon this unknown .Sahara ; and giv
ing rem to our hornes, wo struck biF upon
an easy gallop. ''
Wo saw nothing of buffalo or doer, and
moro tban once I questioned the prudence
of the step, bu t as we were actuated some
what by curiosity, I said uotblng, and we
pre&aeii' forward.
Wo had au abundance of dried, meat,
which, no doubt, would last its ,011 the
timepeceasary.,, NowMdiheni wecangbi

them beyond all danger of our gunt>.
As we were riding along, and had come'
to the conclusion that it would bo im- ,
possible to, necuro any gamp, I was sur o I .

1 may hero remark that hunters often
separate for an o?tir?, day first agreeing
apon tho guides by which they ah&lr >
meet again, and I had no hesitation
in doing the samo. My horse was fresh

stretch ia limbs : so, without UBeie&s hes
itation, I waved them a playful goodby,
and started away.
I aimed directly toward the. tho iq,ot
where I had discovered the object, I judged
it to be a half-mile distant, but when I
roached the place, it proved to bo double
that dlstanne, and illusion which ofton
misleads hunters and travelers.
A aingularly-forraed ridge'cros??id the
plain from East to West. A thicket of
cactus grow upon its summit, and toward
the thicket I directed my course. I-d's
mounted before ascending the Jilli, and,
cautiously loading niy boree- amouug the
?actus bushes. I tied him to ono of the
limbs. I tied him with slight aeautity,
for tho noble boast did not need anything
moro. This done, I stealthily made my

However, tho antelopes were 1000 feet
distant, upon a smooth, grassy slope.
There was not tho slightest covering to

last letter that I could not be prevailed]
upon to taste tho delicacies of cat, dog,
and rat, provided at the Chinese dinner,
and served up in tho dainty bowlB.
Well, when Henry returned nome that
night ho said to Mak: 'Now, under
stand, your misse must cat cat, dog and
rat; you to catchee them, and every
morning you give ond piece, to eat that
b~c*kfast time.' The days passed, and
Henry, thinking tho servant had forgot-.,
ten ail about his order, eat down to
breakfast, and I am glad to sey the biter
was bitten ; for he, as well as our friend,
partook of a dish of mince, which was
nerved up with a wall of potatoes. This
waa according to Henry's wish, as bo
thought the potatoes, nerved in English
fashion, would be a good disguise.. Hav
ing tasted it, and'not liking thc ''flavor,
Henry said, ?otto voce, to the waiting boy:
"What fashion .cljow chowjbis thing?
and tho answer waa':.- 'Belong one piece
dpg.' I ate. iny portion, . without;com;
munt, thinking it calf's bead mixed ; but
the idea did pats through my head that
it was rather high, and I looked toward
our friend, but ho seemed tobe enjoying it1
Tho following morning another mince
waa served up, of which Henry - did not
partake, but I did not notice this. He
declares that I helped myself twice to it.
This mince was also disguised by a wall
of potatoes. On the third morning an
other of these mince dishes ornamented
again with potatoes was banded around,
and our friend, who had been let into
the secret, helped himself liberally and
fi ron on ri ced tho dish good. I'remained
n ignorance of what I had eaten until
tho middle of tho next day, when , tho
gentleman burst into a fit of laughter,
and told me the hoax that had been
practiced on me and that' I bad eaten
?oa the first morning, cat the second,
ana rat the third morning. Does it- hot
show how much there is in imagination ?
for hr di been told beforehand whet the
dishec would contain, I could not have

ho attributes to the universal use of oat

in the evening tho traditional cake. The
wo principal ways of cooking oatmeal
are porridge and cake (bannock) which

teaspoon of salt and n pint of coarse meal,
stirring while it is hoing slowly poured
in ; continue atirriug until the meal ia
diffused through the water-about eight
or teu minutes. Cover it closely then,
and place it where it will simmer for an
hour : avoid stirring dur lng.the .whole of
that time. Serve hot, with as little mess- '
lng as possible, accompanied with milk,'
manie syrup or sugar and cream. To
make oatmeal cake, place in a bowl a
quart of meal, add to it a?much cold wow
ter os will form it into a soft ligbtdougb?
cover it with a cloth .fifteen minutes.to
allow it toawell, then dust the pasteboard
with meal, turn oat the dough and give
