is step in the right direction, and,
it is TO be hoped, will be successful

proper for this column, and also, we
want items concerning the school

be short and pointed; personalities
are to be avoided, and lily puzzles

chewcd. Every communication
should be accompanied by the wri-

that the author OF any paper must

7yRx "A Sharks PecuiiarlHes.

A singular thing about the SHARE
tribe, and about skates and rays also, is
the number of the gill openings. 4
sunfsh, salmon. catfish. founder, or
any ordinary fish, has one gill opening,
guarded by an ingeniously contriyed
bony door, or gill cover, inside which
may be seer the gills, usually five rows.
But all sharks have a gill opening to
each row of gills and are entirely un-
ppovided with a gill cover. The
| position ofthc mouth is another external
peculiarity that will strike n one who
looks ever casually at a SHARK, be it only
q dogtish eighteen inches long. No
! mouth can be seen from above. IL is
not at the end, with a gap reaching
| along the side of the head, rs i'll a cod
or q pike. il is below; turn the animal
over and it is plainly TO be s"cn-a
broad, more or less curved slit, with
rows OF cruel teeth inside. This position
OF the mouth is due to the more OF less
projecting nose or non OF the shark.
| In the hamnlrs head the front edge ofthe
hammer hides the mouth: SOM" other
| sharks have 4 pointed snou', while most
of the skates have quite u large triangle
running ont ahead OF their masticatory
organs, Only the peculiarly ugly shark
something between Il shark and 3
skate, known as the angel tsh and also
as the monk fish, and the great bat like
eagle rays have terminal mouths.
Both OF these, like the hammerhead,
inhabit alike the Atlantic and tho
Pacific,
Sharks have no true bones. Back
bone, skull, Jaws and ~tin-lays are all
cartilaginous the boniest things about
them arc their teeth; but the hardest
things, harder than bone, for they I
enamel, are the small tuberylrS that
stud the SKI n. In most sharks these are
very small, simply causing The surface
to feel delicately rough, but in some of
the skates spines of considerable size
are scattered among the fine shagreen.
The hammerhead is decidedly not the
most graceful OF his tribe. The white
shark and the smaller blue sha' may
lay claim to grace Of form, but the
hammerhead cannot; yet he is interest
ing from his very strangeness-o Il out
of many singular forms hat inhabit the
vast ocean md are little known even by
sight, save 10 the fishermen whose az
duous toll leads them TO their haunts.

will snap right and left as long as they
live. and danger from them, if they
are large, is not over when they are
safely landed on the deck OF q vessel.
Axe and club are needed to keep them
quiet, or they might do mischief ere
they died for they die hard. -Philade2s

Our March Through the Heavens

1t is difficult to comprehend that, in
addition to the earth's motion around
the sun, the latter Is also moving
through space at the rate of 900
miles in a year. The astronomers of
the last century discovered that Il So
lar SYSTEM was flying through space in
the direction of the constellation Her.
cules in other words, if the spectator
were to take a stationary point in the
heavens, he would see vi sun with
its attending planets passing through
the space at the rate of nearly 100000
miles per day. Six thousand years ago,
it is computed, our soiar system was Il
million millions of miles farther from the
stars of Hercules than it isto-day. The
region in which we are entering is more
thickly studded with stars-that is, with
suns of other solar systems-thap the
heavenly regions we have left behind
us. What a marvellous universe We
live in! When we travel on q railway
car at the rate of fifty miles an hour, it
makes our head swim but when we
call to mind that the earth revolves on
its axis Once in twenty-four hours and
around the sun, 90, 1000, 900 miles distant,
in 365 days, and that sun is flying
through space 100000 miles in a
year, human consciousness cannot COM
prehend the mad whirl of worlds by
which we are surrounded. What fairy
tale or Arabian Nights story is half SO
marvellous as the simplest and most or
binary facts in astronomy ?-Desmorest's

Farmers Arbitrate, Don't Liti-
gate,

The law favOrs arbitration as a peace
able and inexpensive method Of settling
difficulties. In many of the States there
are statutory provisIons, by which a
Judgment of the Court may be render
ed on the award or finding of arbitra-
tors, concerning a matter duly submitted
to them. 1t is almost always possible
to take q case ont of Court, and submit
it to referees at any stage OF its pro-
gress. In the absence of any statutory
provisions, it is always lawful for par
ties to agree to submit their differences
to arbitrator, and abide by their deci.
sion. The agreement to do so may be
either oral or written, but the latter il
the better way. The form is not essen
tial, except that the meaning should be
carefully expressed. Ii is customary,
in addition to the agreement, for the
parties to execute to each other an ar
bitration bond, coditioned on each par
ty% performing the award given by the
arbitrators, whatever it may be. II tht
award is properly made, it then be
comes binding on the parties.
Arbitration IS we'll worth considering
by farmers, who find themselves III dis
pute about some simple question of fact
as, for instance, the amount Of damage
which AS breechy cattle have done tc
BIS corn, or as to what was the value o.
AS sheep which were killed by BIS bad
dog. Such questions a generally be
quickly, cheaply, and justly settled by
one or more fair minded neigbors, and
the expense, delay, and aggravation o.
a suit in Court may thus be avoided
