COLLECTING FLOWERS.
Practical Suggestions fer Young People
who are Studying Botany.

Manton's Field Botany"i
Specimens should be gathered when possible,
in fine weather, If taken in wet weather, or if
water plants, the moisture should be shaken
from them, and they should be dried as much as
possible before putting to press When the
weather IS very warm the vaseuum Ga tin box
for collectlng) may be lined with large leaves,
and its contents occasionally sprinked with fresh
water. This will generally keep the specimens
in good condition. AS rule specimens should
not exceed siXteen-inches in length, and the en-
TIRE plant, with Its roots, should be preserved.
II you will examine plant you viii find that
often the lower leaves differ very much from the
upper leaves. and many times only by means Of
the lower leaf, or the one or two above it, is it
possible to tell the kind of plant. Therefore,
when the plant is so large that it is impossible
or lnconvenient to save it entire, you must pre-
serve the top or some of the branch leaves and
the lower part OF the stem having the first or
seed leaves If it is not practicable to retain
all OF the root, enough should be kept to show
the nature OF the plant. Specimens should al
ways be either in flower or fruit. In the herbs
both will often be found existing at the same
time on plant. At least two leaves of a fern
should be preserved otherwise the specimen is
incomplete Do not hold specimens in the hand
any longerthan is necessary, as the warmth hast
ems whiting. Make note of locality where
collected on slip Of paper and attach it to the
specimen before putting into the vasculum
Plants should lie with their roots together at
one end Of the box. Alg@ (sea weeds. etc.
should be placed in wide-mouthed bottles, con-
tanning, If sea weeds, salt water; otherwise
fresh water. The bottles may be carried in a
small basket. A small scoop-net attached to
the telescope handle will often prove of service
in taking specimens from the water or from
pools between rocks, which are otherwise In
accessible. The best time for collecting the
alg@ Is after storm; but plenty will always
be found on the seashore early In the morning.
Drags and fshermen's nets often contain choice
and rare enacimana 81 49,

This restfulness through repetition of some

dirges of the hired nurse drive the unhappy in

maternal canticle. .'Sleep, baby mine" has q
narcotic effect upon the tenant of the cradle
although it may stimulate to distraction the
nervous system of adjacent adults. But Sc
flously, the effect of mOnotony upon the ear and
through the s2iiSe Of hearing upon the brain and
nervous system is observable in persons of all
a%es. Strains Of muse. if of a soothing not
noisy kind will luli the mind to sleep and the
same effect is often produced by the regular
r!a&h CT waves upon the shore, the constant
ticking OF ctCck. or the repetition orally or in
the memory OF some form of words. The phen-
omenon Of pOeticai or musical composition dur
ing sleep. both being rhythnical, is generally
tfac2ahc TO the imagery or la9t Impressions left

has frequently experienced this-afteF hearing
