MISCELLANEOUS.
Queer Plants in washIngton.

81 want to call your attention O
the unlicensed bar-rooms you will no.
tice in this house, said Mr.. Smith,
as he entered an other house near by.
Here flowers resembling small ba-
nauas could he seen. They were hol-
low and open at the top, and contain
ed liquid. These were the unli-
censed bar-rooms.
Breaking one off and opening it, 1t
was filed with red ants.
''TheY come up and drink the Ii
quor," said Mr.. Smith, 'sget drunk
and die happy"
"Here is the cockroach bar-room y
he continued, and here the spiders.
An ant willnot drink any of the roach
or spider liquor, and Uice UerSd.
Near the door a beautiful plant,
with creamy white leaves was labelled
"consumption plant
"Whence the name?'' asked the
reporter; is the plant diseased?"
Yes, it really has the consump-
tion!" was the reply, 'sand where
these leaves are tinted creamy white
they are diseased lungs. You know
thataplant breathes throughits leaves.
This plant is propagated for its
beauty"
The fly trap flower, in large pot
near by with hundreds of tiny leaves,
resembling semi-circular jaws pro-
vided with small, sharp teeth attract
ed the reporters attention.
"That's the well-known fy-trap, >"
said Mr.. Smith by way of explanation.
While he was speaking butterfly
alighted in one. Quicker than thought
the jaws closed and the butterfly was
a prisoner.
'How long will that butterfly re-
main prisoner" asked the reporter.
1.-TWO or three days. BY that time
the flower will have derived ALI the
benefit and good the fly possesses,
and its jaws will soon open and the
fly be cast out. 1t is my belief that
the flower obtains sustenance from
the prisoners it takes. Sometimes it
gets hold of the wrong kind of food,
however, and it gets dyspepsia. This
conclusion is reached from the effect
of the food on leaves. Now this cell
caught the head of blue-bottle fly a
couple days ago, and got the dyspep-
sia, as you can see by its color.
The reporter looked and saw a sick
ly combination of green and yellow
markings on the leaves, and the dead
flower still between them.

How to Make an AoIian Harp.

One of our girls asks us to tell her
how to make an Rolian harp. The
simplest style of this melodious in
strument is that which fits into an or
dinary window frame. Out of thin
well-planed boards of common wood
make box as long as the window for
which it is intended is wide, inches
deep and ) inches wide. Glue the
pieces together, making the joints as
true and clean as possible. The
boards, by the way, should not he
thicker than One-eighth of an inch,
and the more carefully you make the
box the better the harp will be when
it is done. Three inches from each
end of the box glue on bridge for
the strings to pass over. The bridge
should be made of some kind of hard
wood. The strings are of cat-gut and
are tightened by means of pegs fitted
into holes bored for the purpose at
each end of the box. Six or eight
strings may be used, and they should
be tuned in union. Three inches
above them place a thin board sup
ported on four pegs, one at each cor
ner of the box. Then put the box in
the window and bring down the sash
on the upper board. The air passes
in and out between it and the sound
ing box, and the strings, being set in
vibration by it, give off that soft me-
lodious murmur for which the aoIian
harp is noted.
