Cuttlefish Casting Its Ink.

Mr.. Frank auckland, the well-known
English naturalist, describes in Land
and Wafer his good fortune in seeing,
casting its ink. Three or four speci-
mems of cuttles living in the West
minister Aquarium. One of them in
passing the window Of his tank eviden.
fly mistook the naturalist for foe.

swan along he elected from his ink bag
q jet of what looked like q cloud Of the
most intensely black smoke that ever
came forth from factory chimney.
Instantly the water lost all transpar-
ency. Mr.. Cuttlefish then went into
the middle Of the water he had 10 art.
fully made opaque. When there he
elected more ink, and in less than half
. minute the water round him became
blacker than the blacklist thundss(
cloud,ever beheld. The ink gradually
dispersed itself through the water,
forming clouds Of the most delicate
standings, fading off from the very black
place under which the beast was con-
cealed. Not even Turner, the great ar.
fist, ever imagined such cloud. This
ink is used in the arts, sepia being the
very substance taken from the cutie
fish and dried. Without doubt this
power of shooting ink is most wonder.
full means of protection to preserve the
animal from being eaten by its enemies,
and it may not be impossible that the
idea of gods and 60 idesses appearing
from the clouds and disappearing into
clouds, SO often described by Virgil,
might have taken its origin from the
power Of the cuttlefish to surround
itself with cloud of ink. May we not
also compare this cuttlefish to valum-
nous author, who conceals his identity
in clouds Of ink"

MicrOscOpial Recreation.

Well has it been said that the micro.
scope is door into another world. 1t
is so, and the man who uses it merely
as such is amply rewarded. The door
is opened and he is almost bewildered
with the variety and beauty of what he
sees. His mind is enlarged, his views
are corrected; his taste is charmed, his
wonder excited. The whole man is
elevated, refreshed, and invigorated.
It is not only pastime, but IAN intel
lectual pastime." But, further, we are
told it is "sure to terminate in beneficial
results" This intellectual pastime,"
then, does not, ~ Q rule. stop there.
It is not a lovely vision which vanishes
away, but is an avenue TO . brighter
ard broader view. Il induces the habit
Of observation, and surrounds even the
least things with Q halo Of interest
which they could never otherwise have
possessed. The smut on the ear OF
corn, the disease Of the lesi OF the po-
tato. the mould ON the cheese, all are
nos full OF interest. The most I'M.
promising object often exhibits most
unexpected character. or reveals long.
looked for secret. And thus the mind
il not only refreshed but stored With
nev fact, which, in its turn, proves to
be only the cradle Of smother: 20, step
BY step. the "bebe6cisl results" are
evolved.

Genius in u Book Agent.

A Detroit book agent has got things
down fine. His study of human ma
ture has enabled him to arrive ut the
conclusion that when an agent enters
an office with heck ander his arm,
the proprietor at once says, either audi
bly, or to himself, II don't want that
book, whatever it may be about" The
agent has to argue and combat the mans
fixed resolve, which is much more din.
cult to do than to sell book to an un.
prejudiced person. The wise Detroiter,
therefore, hires boy to go along with
him to carry book, prospectus, and all
the dread Implements of an agents
trade. The boy stands outside while
tina &c emit insinustes himself within the
citadel. By that insiduous course OF
reasoning that an agent knows 10 we'll
how to use, the unfortunate victim il
induced to cay that il he saw the book
he might purchase, but. of course.
could not be expected 70 buy book he
had not seen. This olinches it. The
man Who says this in the forloru hope
that the agent will call again with the
book is lost. The Willy agent "a once
calls in reinforcemeuts in the shape Of
the waiting boy outside. vilh books,
etc, and the sale il made bsfore the
