SPONGES.

The fine, soft. Syrian sponge is
f distinguished by It's Iightness. its
fine, laXen color. its form. which is
that of cup. its surface. convex.
/ voiuted; pierced with innumerabie
small orltices, the concave part Of
! which presents canals of much great
I er diameter, which are prolonged to
4 the exterior surface in such a man
ner that the summit is nearly always
pierced throughout in many places.
This sponge j. sometimes blanched
/ hy the aid Of caustic alkalies: but
this preparation not only helps to
destroy its texture. Int also changes
I its color. This sponge is specially
employed for the toilet and its price
Is high. Specimens which are round
shaped, large and soft. sometimes
/ produce very high prices. The fine
sponge Of the GTccian Archapclago
/ Is scarcely distinguishable from that
Of Syria. either before or after being
/ cleanSed; nevertheless. it is weight
icr, its texture Is not so fine and the
holes with which it is pierced are at
once larger and less in number. 1t
/ Is nearly of the same country as the
tormer-in fact. the fishing for it eN-
tends along the Syrian coast. rs well
as the littoral zone Of the Archipela-
| 90 and Barbary. The fine. hard
sponge, called Greek. is less sought
for than either of the preceding: it
/ Is. however, most useful for domestic
| and for certain industrial purposes.
It's mass is irregular; pierced with
small holes. The white sponge of
Syria called Venetian. is esteemed
for its lighmess. the regularity of its
form and its solidity. In its rough
state it IS brown in color and of a
fine texture, compact and firm. When
( cleansed it becomes fiaXen-colored
and Of a looser texture. The orifices
OF the great channel which traverse
It are rough and bristIv. The brown
( Barbary sponge when first taken out

and charged with blackish mud. 1t
is then nard, heavy, coarse and Of a

still remaining heavy and reddish.
1t presents many gaps. the intervals
OF which are occupied bv a sinuous
and tenacious net work. 1t is valu-
able for domestic use, because of the
facility with which it absorbs water
and its great strength. Other sorts
Of sponges are very abundant. The
blonde sponge of the Archipelago,
often cOnfounded with the Venetian:
the hard Barbary sponge called ge-
lima. which only comes by accident
into France; the Salonica sponge is
of middling quality; finally. the

I WONDER WHY.

wonder why this worlds good things
Should fan in such unequal shares.
Why some should taste Of all the toys
And others only feel The cares!
wonder why the sunshine bright
Should fan in paths some people tread.
While others shiyer in the shade
OF clouds that gather overhead.
wonder why the trees that hang
So fun Of luscious fruit should grow
Only where some may reach and eat,
While others faint and thirsty 20.
Why should sweet flowers bloom for some,
For others only thOTns be found?
And some grow rich on fruitful earth.
While Others till but barren ground?
wonder Why the hearts OF some
O'erfiow with joy and happiness,
While others 60 their lonely WAY
Jnblessed with aught Of tenderness!
wonder why the eyes of some
Should ne'eT be moistened with a tear.
While others weep from morn iii night
Their hearts 50 crushed with sorrow here
All, We'll! we may not know indeed
The why's, the wherefOTes Of each life:
But this We know-there's One who sees
And watches Us through joy or strife.
Each life its mission here fulfIls,
And only He may know the end,
And loving Him we may be strong,
Tho storm OF sunshine He may send.
