brought the bundle down upon tho fisa
with all his might. But instead OF
killing the salmen poor Ned cut off
his own head which dropped into tho

in summer, the male and female
oysters sccrete and eXpel into the
water milky fluid with germs or
eggs. The egg. once adrift. must
perish unless it encounters a male
germ, in which case young oyster
comes into being and swims about
with its little feeers quite actively un-
til it comes in contact with rock or
any clean and hard object. To such an
object it attaches itself. A single fc-
male Oy ster often produces as many rs
60 million eggs in n season. Forum
ately. these eggs form the principal
food of innumerable other creatures,
else the oysters would very soon
fill up the ocean and thus
flood the continents. There seems
to be always in nature u pro-
vision Of this sort to prevent any ami
NAL from becoming too numerous.
Even the slow breeding elephant as
Darwin remarked, would. If left un-
checked to multiply, soon people the
earth to the exclusion of all other ami
mails.
mo sooner is the adolescent oyster
fixed upon the stone than it begins to
form its shell, which is made OF lime
chiefly, and starts in to grow. An
oyster lives thirty years and maybe
longer; it is Il very nervous animal and
dies from a sudden jar, so thata loud

shells. The large spiral mollusils
known by the names OF Wrinkle and
'conch' prey upon the oyster and crush
its shell by sheer muscular power OF
the large foot by which they grasp
it. Most destructive OF all the oy stcr's
enemies, however, IS the star fish
which swallows the young oyster, shell
and all, and after the soft parts are
absorbed, the shell is cast out OF the
stomach. With II big oyster the stal
fish cannot apply this method, so il

A Word About Mean Wills.

Husbands who profess to love their
wives intensely sometimes play them
a very mean trick when about to de-
part for that better land where there
IS "neither marrying or giving in
marriage" One might suppose that
a tender spouse, on the eve Of being
divorced by death from the partner OF
his joys and SORROWS. would be gov
erned in the disposition of his worldly
goods by an earnest desire 10 render
her earthly future happy one. II no

should he make dog in the manger

only during her widowhood? What
right has he to condemn her to a life
of loneliness. under penalty OF pauper-
ism in case she shall marry again?

mortal coil, il you desire to be tender

deal with them after this contemplate

The Giant sQuid.

With this monstrous animal the fish.
ermen of the Indian Ocean have been
unpleasantly acquainted for many
centuries In fact, the professional
angler in those south seas is compelled
constantly to indulge a rather exciting
anticipation of meeting one, and a cer-
tain percentage of loss OF life conse-
quent upon these encounters is a mat
ter Of regular estimate in the business,
for the humber toiler OF the sea, while
engaged in his peaceful employment
must be prepared at any time to see a
monstrous creature with goggling eyes
rise out OF the depths aud fling across
his boat Il gigantic tentacle arm with
scores of suckers SO powerful that
nothing short OF horse power can pull
them off after they have been once at
tached. For such an adventure the
fisherman has always ready at hand a
keen knife with which to slash off the
tentacle before it has dragged him
overheard in fatal embrace. He must
work quickly for the monster has am
other tentacle to help him In the at
! tack, and it is hardly an even fight be-
tween one or two men and a creature
with an arm reach of 100 feet,
Such and even greater are the pro-
portions reached by the giant squid.
which is considered by some excellent
authorities to be in actual truth not
only the supposed sea serpent, but the
semi-fabulous kraken as we'll. 1t in
habits all seas though 1t Is most nu-
merously found in tropical waters. A
full-grown species weighs more than
10000 pounds, has body fifty feet in
length and, besides its eight smaller
tcntacles, is armed with two greater
tentacles for purposes of attack, each
100 long, the greatest dimensions OF the
animal being. therefore. no less than
$50 feet. No wonder that stories are
told OF it attacking ships and even
dragging them under sea. As for the
poor fisherman. one, capture and held
fast by the horrible sucking tentacles
he is drawn into the closer embrace Of
the beasts eight other arms. which are
likewise equipped with suckers. and
the frightful creature sinks with his
captive to the bottom. where it tears
him to pieces at it's leisure with its
powerful parrOt-like heak. Should ii
be frightened while engaged in its hid
eous meal it discharges from an organ
called its ink bag II fluid which renders
the water round about as black MS

Dinner Customs.

Three or four men with whom din.

reporter. fell to discussing dinner GUS
toms and their reasons. One recalled
the days OF the two-prongel forks and
the old fashio, Of pouring coffee into

attention to the history involved in the
word dip" which is still usel liz

DAYS when the sauce was II common

Clocks to Rem.

One OF the new things is clock to
rent. Persuasive agents are going
about towns inducing people to hire
clocks that give not only the hour and
minutes OF the day, but the day Of the
month and its number AS we'll. Clocks
having similar properties are not
novel, but in this case the controlling
company agrees to keep the timepiece
in order, and refuses to sell it. Over
1900 clocks OF this kind have been
placed already in Chicago at rental,
of as cents month. In some cases
where time OF operatives in factory
demands careful adjustment an en-
ployee OF the company visits the place
daily and regulates the clock so far as
may be necessary. Ordinarily the
clocks are wound once in six days. and
the company attends to that, too. The
only possible mistake in the affair may
arise from misinterpretation OF the
laws OF leap year. The calendar allows
an extra day to February every four
years except the even century. as 1900.
when, to correct errors, the year
passes with its ordinary 365 days. The
makers OF this new clock seem to be
possessed with the idea that leap year
Is omitted once in twenty-four years,
and they have adjusted their clocks
accordingly.

A half hour passes, when suddenly
and without moments previous
warning, the sharp rattle Of a drum is
heard. electric gongs clang noisly,

To the inexperienced eye, what seems
to be scene Of disorderly confusion
now takes place. That portion OF the

deck, come swarming up the hatches;
the marine guard. hastily grasping

Country Poetry.

Talking about country poetry"
We always get the very best from that
source, and the following verses,
which appeared in last weeks issue OF
the Fort Valley Leader, are as tender
and touching as anything this writer
has over read:
BY the desk where am sitting,
While the midnight hours arc fitting,
There stands little chair,
Which reminds of being,
Which my fancy ever seeing,
Should be there.
Her young words werc but tattle,
He voice an infant prattle,
Which affection doth adore;
But the little chair is empty,
And its van cancy will tempt me,
Evermorc.
And every coming morrow,
With its weight OF care and sorrow,
Like tho day that went before,
Will bring my spirit nearer
To the place where shall hear her,
Evermorc.
