The jaded organ will be stimulated; all the digestive Juices net; tlio food is all absorbed, nnd soon the appetite cries for more. Tliereforo the apple and the currant have been called appetizers because they are the uiears cf bringing appetite to those in search of it. The apple being in season longest lias the usual claim to favor as an appetizer, but the currant is almost as deserving of the claim.

The teak, which has passed Into proverb as the best material for shipbuilding, Is superior to all other woods from the fact that it contains an essential oil which prevents spikes and nails driven Into it from rusting. This property Is not possessed by any other wood in the world and furnishes an explanation of the fact that ships built of teak are practically Indestructible. Some have been known to last for ICO years, and when broken up their beams were as sound as when tlrst put together. . A Sontli African Anlmnl. There is a curious looking animal In South Africa that looks for all tho world like a piece of toast with four legs, a head and a tail. It resembles a pussy cat about the forehead and ears, but Its nose is distinctly that of !i rat, while its tall Is not very dissimilar to that of a fox. This strangd animal Is called the aardwolf and ioubtless dwells in Sontli Africa, because, judged by bis looks, lie would lot be admitted into good animal bo :lety anywhere else. .
