The Flower God.
By EDWARD wrLLsrT.

cave-born child, to manhood nearly grown.
Who never yet had seen tree or flower
OR any living green thing of the earth,
Was taken TO The sunshine. where pot
OF earth was set, and in the pot seed
Was planted, and they babe him wait and
watch
Two little leaves burst through the mellow
soil,
AT which he marvelled greatly; then two more:
Then leaf by leaf the plant built up itself,
A miracle of color and OF form,
Instinct with life. He knew il was alive,
And spake to it, and when ii answered not
He deemed himself beneath it, ignorant
OF the fine language that the wonder knew.
Al last there came bud: and then a bloomi
Slowly at first. then with sudden throe
That fr'eInbed through the tissues OF the plant,
4 crimson glory opened to the sun,
A revelation to the poor youths soul
OF beauty sprung from utter ugliness.
He fell before it, prone upon his face.
Then lifted up his wondering eyes and knelt,
And worshipped it, and it became his god
One morning early when he sought his shrine.
The frost had been before him, and the plant,
Bloom, leaf, and STALK, upon the ugly earth
Lay like Il blot, a shApeiess, loatnsome mass,
And soon there was no trace of 1t ut ALL
Then to the awestruck youth there came a
sage,
Who mildly asked him: Where is now thy god?
His staring eyes were fixed on vacancy,
His face was half transfigured, as he spake,
And said: Awhile ago, and it was here;
A little while-now il is everywhere.
Fear not my master; it will come again.

A Trick Abont an Oil Well.

A few days before the Murphy well
commenced to put forth grease. the rio
and engine-house at the Murphy well
were burned to the ground. None but
interested parties were at the well at the
time, and reports were sent out by them
that the fire originated in an explosion
of gas. SAYS an Oil City Cores pondent
to the Philadelphia Press The story
was generally credited at the time, but
a story has since been circulated to the
following effect: Drilling at the Murphy
well proceeded rapidly, and before the
owner was prepared for it his drill had
touched 1.-The jugular vein," as the oil
men call it, and the fact was speedily
made known from below. Oil flowed
suddenly and freely. and the derrick
engine-house, and the adjoining bushes
were well sprinkled with the greasy
fluid. 1t was not according to Capt
Murphy's idea that the outer world
should as yet be made aware that he
had a big well. The oil men would soon
be fiocking TO the vicinity, and if trace,
of the oil (and traces were large and
pronounced) were seen about the rig
and grounds the four winds of heaven.
leaving the Western Union Telegraph
and reporters out of the question. would
soon spread the tidings to the four quar-.
tiers of the earth.
TO avoid this, orders were issued TO
set fire to the scattered oil, and ere lone
the derrick. engine-house, and all traces
of the oil which had been scattered
about were licked up by the flames
Then the story of the gas explosion was
circulated.
1t seems to be generally conceded
fact among oil men that when there is
much gas there is little oil, and so as
the story circulated and was spread BY
the newspapers, the general verdict was
rendered, ''fhe Murphy well isn't good
for anything" But Capt. Murphy knew
better, and as the price of oil stiffened a
little he sold short, and when GAG, and
later Murphy, broke the market he
covered the shorts and reaped rich
harvest.

Weight of the Human Brain.

Lately NJ. Paul Topinafd has reviewed
the researches of Broca regarding the
weight of the brain in the human species
The figures obtained by Broea and the
author appear to indicate that excessive
weight is no prima-facie evidence of
great intellectually. Even the ponder
Gus brain of Culver, which weighed L.
$40 grammes, is considered to be due in
no small degree to the well-attested
presence of hydrocephalus during the
infancy of the great naturalist. The
mean weight of the brain of men is l..
325 grammes, aud of women LAP
grammes, the greatest weight among
the former being attained generally be-
tween the ages of 80 and 80. and among
the latter at a somewhat earlier period.
After the age of So the diminution is
very rapid, and the loss at the age of
so reached from 100 to $50 gIammcs.--.
These figures must. however, be accept
ed with great caution. Most of the OBJ
servations were made on the heads of
persons who had died in hospitals, and
who were presumably more or less af-
feeted with brain disease There are
no existing tables determining the differ
ence aoffhe weight of the brain among
mentally sound persons belonging to the
two distinct Glasses of those engaged in
intellectual pursuits and those who OBJ
tain living by manual labor.

How Spiders Seek the Light

At the last meeting of the Academy
of Natural Sciences the Rev. DIR. Henry
&. McCook reported the results Of eX-
periments recently made by him on the
subject of the Sensitiveness of spiders
on light. The brood of young spiders
which he had for some time been study
ing in his library were found To dispose
themselves during the day on lines Of
web upon which the light from win
dow fell with the most effect. On the
approach of evening, when the study
lamp was lit. they moved in body To-
ward its beams, and when the position
of the lamp was changed it immediate
ly produced corresponding change OF
resting place in the brood. During his
studies of the winter habits OF spiders
he had recently found adult specimens
of Epeird UuiQGTiS at Atlantic CITY
which had evidently survived the winter.
Although the season had advanced
somewhat, there seemed to be very few
young, which might be due to the fact
that they had been eaten either by the
old spiders or the stronger young ones.
as there seemed to be but a scant sup
ply of insect food in the vicinity Of the
webs. Remembered in this connection
that, although the spiders in his study
had been supplied with waller only since
their escape from the acocoons, be had
not detected among them the slightest
disposition to eat one another frol
Lewis stated that a saltigrade spider
confined by him in glass tube was ey-
identity able to distinguish the waving
of handkerchief at a distance Of SIX
feet. In connection with the reported
cannibal habits of spiders, the presl-
den stated that the common wheel OF
saw-bug, RedtUftts nOUenGrius. certain
" eats his young. The president also
