Once upon e time, before the Argentine was gridlroned with railroads, a little party of us set off iu the saddle to cross tbe. I'ainiiss to the fertile plantations of Bolivia. Coming to tbe end of a long day's canter we also cam* upon a camp of curious half savages, of whom wa bad beard but with whom I, at least, had never made aoqualutaune before. A couple of them were carving veritable chunks oat of tbe carcass of a borer, whose hide was pegged out ou tbe gras* to dry. These great morsels of meat, half roasted, without salt, in tbe ember, of a tire of twigs and tnrf, constituted the feast to which tbe Guacbos welcomed us. It wa* hearty eating, though tbe cookery could not compare with that of “Tbe ilouesL Man" in Paris, and it waa the only meat our rude bosU knew. They lived.by tbe bone and off the bore* aa well aa on bis lack. Ills bide went to tbe traders to clothe them, and his flesh went Into their bodies to render them worth clothing, and no one who baa seen them running down their game, with their long lariats tipped with leaden balls, will doubt that It was healthy feeding, however deficient In epicurean charm.—Alfred Trumble in New York Epoch.
