difference Of opinion. The only fact that
seems to be clearly established is that in
the spring it asccnds along the European

meeting the current Of the Gu'f stream,

The importation of Weeds.

Americans inform us that about 900
species Of weeds have been imported into
their country mostly from the British
Islands. In 1897 there were said to be
only 1877. The common plantain is
known among the Indians as the eng
llshman's foot, )" as though following the
steps of the white settlers. The common
yellow toadflax was, it is said, intro
duccd by Mr.. Ranstead as garden
flower, and is now known as the Ran
stead weed. In 1888 it had ovcnun the
pastures in the inhabited parts of Penn
sylvania, and was the cause Of bitter
complaints. Chickwecd is said to have
been introduced as bird-secd, and the
Scotch thistle arrived in q bedtick filled
with thistlc-down. Feathers being
cheap, the bed Of down was replaced by
feathers, and the former thrown by the
wayside. The seed soon found con
genial home. There is troublesome
American water-weed, however (Ana-
charts alsi@a8trum), which has avenged
our transatlantic cousins threofold, by
choking our ponds, rivers and canals.
Another little intruder from the Cape
(azolla pjnnata) may be troublesome. It
is charming little aquatic, and most in
teresting under the microscope. Some
one had thrown a handful Of it on a pond
we wot of, where the common duck
weed Qomn@ hourished; but azolla
quickly monopolized the whole surface
and crowded out the duclwccd. -

The unlawful act which the wardens
most carefully guard against is drift
ing One or two poachers will steal
out at night carrying a peculiarly made
net in their canoes. They stretch this
across the head Of pool, and it is SO
weighted and buoyed that it stands up
right reaching nearly to the bottom. AS
the current causes the net to drift down
stream, one canoe stays at each end to
kept straight. There is usually a
white rope at the bottom of the net.
Seeing this, the salmon raise themselves
a little only to be caught by the gills in
the meshes' When the shaking Of the
net shows that one is caught, the poacher
quickly paddles to the spot, raises the
net Ahls the fish with a blow on its
head anu throws 1t into the bottom of
the ofhoe. In this sneaking way nearly
all the salmon in pool may be netted
out in a night If the wardens happen to
come along in their dug-outs, they try
to 'elle the net and identify the poach-
eTs lhen there may be fight, and
perhaps canoe will be sunk, and a
poaene[ Or warden will get cold bath.

EYeIeSS Animals.

Mr.. GRADER has recently described, in
the transactions of the Vienna academy,
the results of observations indicating
that eyeless animals are sensible to light.
In a box divided into compartments, and
each furnished with two openings, he
distributed equally number of earth
worms. One of the openings in each
compartment he obscurcd or concealed,
and exposed the box to the light, exam
ining the worms from time to time, and
adding new ones every four hours. BY
repeated observations he found they
showed decided tendency to withdraw
to the darker parts of the compartments,
only forty out of total Of $50 remain
ing in the light. He also studied the iu-
Huence of different rays upon them, and
found them susceptible to the different
colors. When the openings were covered
with blue and red glass they manifested
marked preference for The red light
6eteacs.

Springtime love is like the flowers,
Born to blossom and to die,
Smiling through few sweet hours.
All, tell me whyl
Summers love is like the showers,
Burst with lightning from the sky;
Wasted soon its passions powers:
All, tell me why!
Autumn's love is like the gold
That on the forest leaves shall lie;
Quickly fled with speed untold:
Alb, tell me why!
Winters love is ike the cold
And chilling winds that swiftly fly,
Vanishing Ger wood and void:
Ali, tell me why!
Yet Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring
Are full of love that shall not die;
For love is Of them all the king:
And who cares why,
