A Rat With a Collar.

Mr.. J. Enthoffer, employed on the
United States coast survey, has contrib
uted curiosity to the Smithsonian in
stitution, which, if it adds nothing to sci
entific knowledge, will be regarded with
much interest by all persons interested
in the habits and adventures of rats.
Mrs. Enthofer had been annoyed for
some time by persistent rat. She oc-
casionally caught a glimpse of it, and
was surprised to see it wore what ap-
peared to be yellow collar. This fact
gave rise to much speculation in the
family as to how the rat came into pos
session of the collar. The mystery was
solved few days ago when the rat
wearing the collar was caught in a trap.
Unfortunately the rat was killed by a
dog, but upon examining the body it
was found that the collar was a ring of
bone fitting tightly around the animal 5
neck. The theory is that the rat when
it was small had found a bone, and
gnawing the center, pushed his head
through, and was unable to extricate it.
AS he grew larger Ghe ring OF bone tight
ened about his neck, and he wore it until
his death az a badge of his enterprise in
the search for food Washington Repaid

Electricity in the Human Bodv.

Most people are familiar with the
spark" which may be produced under
certain conditions by stroking the fur
of cat; and travellers in Canada and
other cold, dry countries have witnessed
the still more remarkable phenomenon
of the human body being turned into a
conductor of electricity, and the posi-
biity of lighting the gas by merely
placing ones fnger-given the neces-
sary conditions of electrical excitement
near the gas jet, without any other
agency. Mr.. A. w. hutchinson. the
African traveller, who is engaged in
writing narrative of his exploring ex-
peditions in Western Central Africa.
gives some still more startling facts.
He states that, one evening, when strik-
ing an African native, in moment of
anger, with a cowhide whip, he was
astonished to see sparks produced, and
still more surprised to find the natives
themselves were quite accustomed to the
phenomenon. He subsequently found
that a very light touch, repeated several
times, under certain conditions of bodily
excitement, and in certain states Of the
atmosphere, would produce succession
of sparks from the bodies of native men
as well as native cattle. A lazy negro,
it seems, yielded none of these signs of
electricity-a rather unfortunate cir
cumstance for his more active brethren,
who may possibly come in for share
of undeserved flogging from the hands of
future travellers in search of electrical
phenomena among the human race.
We are not aware that these facts have
been recorded by other travellers. but
they certainly deserve thorough sitting
by competent observers. London Lam

Shadow Land.

Far from the world that we live in to-day
Shadow land lies;
None know how far il is, none know the way,
What are its boundaries no one can say,
Only surmise;
No one in life has set foot on that shore,
Formed from the wreck OF the sad neyermore
Memory governs this shadowy land,
Reigning supreme;
Ofttimes there comes at her word OIL command
Forms we have known from the tar distant
strand,
Faint as dream;
Forms Of those dear in the days which have
flown,
Forms o, beloved ones in lite's morning known.
With them they bring long lost scenes OF the
past,
Back to our view;
Pictures OF friendships not destined to last,
Loves that grew weak meath adversities' blast
Painted anew;
Ridges and ripples 3 shifting sand,
Hidden till now in the far shadow land.

Care OF Cut Flowers.

The following hints in regard to the
care of cut flowers, though containing
nothing novel, may be useful as re-
minders to those who Gull choice
flowers to decorate the home: Flowers
decay much sooner when tied in punches
than when arranged loosely. When
gathering flowers, use a pair of shears,
or knife for woody plants, such as
roses, camellias, deutzias. fuchsias, and
the like. 1t is far better to gather your
flowers than to let them fade upon the
plants. A cool room is best adapted for
keeping flowers fresh. Take away each
flower as it fades, or it will destroy the
others. Hot water will often restore
flowers to freshness, even when every
pstal is dropping. Place the stems in
cup of boiling hot water; let them re-
main until each petal has smoothed;
then cut off the coddled ends and place
them in water of moderate temperature.
Ammonia added to the water will also
revive them quickly. When going for
wild flowers or ferns carry close-fit-
ting tin box, and have a wet sponge and
q basket, the smaller flowers shut in the
box, and stems of larger flowers in
serted in the pores of the sponge, which
you carry in the basket. Flowers
should always be transported in air.
tight boxes.

Words of wisdom.

An ounce of conviction is worth a
pound Of concern
One day is worth three to him who
does everything in order.
He is not only idle who does nothing,
but he is idle who might be better em>
ployed.
The youth who thinks the world his
oyster, and opens it forthwith, finds no
pearl therein.
Nature makes US poor when we want
necessaries, but custom gives the name
Of poverty to the want of supertiuities.
Poverty often deprives man of all
spirit and virtue. 1t is hard for an
empty bag to stand upright.
No place, no company, no sge, no
person, is temptation free Let no man
boast that he is free.
The time for reasoning is before we
have approached near enough to the
forbidden fruit to look at it and admire.
Those who, without knowing us,
think or speak evil of us, do us no harm
it is not US they attack, but the phan-
tom of their own Imagination.
There is ajoy in good fortune. There
is far higher in the minds gain of
knowledge or truth. Bl there is not
Joy like the JOY of resolved virtue.
