In the mining hureriti tnay l wen a very fine rijH'ciiiieii the ro!ii::rl:rib!'? laro land cnib known ;is tins purse cr:', or liirtiM latro. which is well preserved in a jlass jar. This is one of tli'j lar'st sjn'cies of land crab known. It is mhsio tiinoH fotitnl from IS to 01 indies in length when fully stretche 1 out, and is cajiahle of erecting it self to the height of nearly a foot from tlie 'roui..l, wliieli it readily does if irrit -ited, ri-rrr-at irii and exhihitin'-,' t.. the utmost its powers of oil'ense Mini ileleti.-. Jt is soim-wiiat :diied to the hermit crab, lint having the abilumen or tad Fhorter, jet very lar.e, on the tnnli r snli? of which it carries its e.s in immi-nse quantities. Its under ji.le is yolt and nifmbraiioiis, its upper surface covered willi strong jilate.s, which overlap one another as in lobsters. The first pair of leis have lariro and powerful pincers; the second and third pairs of leirs are terminated by a single nail; the pair m-xt to them are a little smaller, with small pincers; the pair of le.s nearest to the abdomen are very small, but terminated by rudimentary pincers. When te;used this crab is so powerful in its first claws and les as t; be able to cliii. to a stick, and can hold its own wei .d it to le carried for over a half hour before letting o, It can travel a:out as fast backward as forward if ptir.-.m.!. It is generally of a yellowish brown color, its limbs beimt, however, covered wii.ii little blackish projections. It is never found far from the sea, to which it is said to pa' visits in order to moisten its jills, but it always resides on land, and is generally found in holes tin der the roots of trees, especially of cocoa nut trees, which it, prefers, and where it accumulates great quant ities of the fibers of the coeoanut husks, as if to keep itself warm or for a soft bed. As a general thing tin.' purse crab stays in tb. s ' boles during the daytime and comes ont at night. its food generally consists of cocoa nuts, also the mits of a s'-eef'-s of nabn known as i'andanus odorot isnms, and other nuts, which it climbs the trees to procure, cutting Die coeoanut ! n mi the tree with its heavy cl.-r.vs, :nul after it has cut down two or three it descends and commences to pull the hnsk from them. In its msinner of dealing with cocoa nuts it exhibits a remarkable instinct, ;is it always begins to tear off the husk at the end where the eyes are. It then makes a hole through the eye from which the nut would germinate. Tins is done by st.-iking the fruit with it.-', heavy claw and breaking it .-ewf.iei -iitiy to admit one of the small legs, by which it scoops out the nut with its small pin cers. Sometimes it seizes the nut by one of its great pincers and breaks it against a stone. The purse crab is found in the mount ains and in the more ea.-leni islands of tiie Indian ocean, as well as on some of the islands of the South Pacific, more es pecially in the Caroline' islands, which are a low coral group. San Francisco Chronicle. II:itt and Ife.nls. It lias been noticed by Jlr. Henry Heath, who sends hats all over the world, from Calcutta to Peru, that different na tionalities possess heads of distinctive sizes and shapes. For instance, Germans have very round heads, a peculiarity shared by our own royal family. The average English head is what hatters call a good shape that is. rather long. The Scotch, one is not surprised to learn, are very long headed. Canadians are dis tinguished by exceptionally large heads. South Americans by very small ones. Australians, again, have rather small heads. The subject is an interesting one, and worth pursuing further if space al lowed. The heads of individuals also vary a good deal from time to time, shrinking during illness or mental worry, and generally becoming smaller with ad vancing years. As to shape, there is such a thing as fashion, but it only affects mashers: men stick to much the same snape year arcer year zette. -Pall Mall Ga- Detecting a Thief. "John Napier," Miss Warrender tells us, "pursued his studies and researches I in Merchiston. He was supposed by the vulgar to be deeply versed in magic, and to possess a familiar in the shape of a jet black cock. Ihe story goes tnat once when some petty thefts had been com mitted in the castle, of which one of the servants was suspected. Napier brought them all up the winding stairs into a darkened room, where the cock was placed. He commanded them to stroke its back, declaring that it would crow at the touch of the guiltv person. Durin the whole ceremony the cock remained silent, but afterward the hand of the culprit was found to be free from the soot with which the bird's feathers had been liberally sprinkled." How the People of Satigir Keep Time. The people of Sangir, an island of the Malay Archipelago, keep time by the aid of an hour glass formed by arranging two bottles neck to neck. The sand runs out in half an hour, when th9 bottles are reversed. Close by them a line is stretched, on which hang twelve sticks marked with notches from one to twelve, with a hooked stick, which is placed be tween the hour last struck and the next one. One of these glasses keeps the time for each village, for which purpose the hours are sounded on a gong by a keeper. London Tit-Bits. A Lucky liojr. .
