Jabez Flynn was sit ting on the side porch, surveying the beautiful hills that surrounded his farm. His face wore a gloomy expression, which was unusual, for Jabez was 8 cheerful man.
 "What in Tunkett is the matter with you now, sh'd admire t know, Jabez Flynn?" snapped his wife, who was wig orously rattling the supper dishes in the dry sink by the kitchen window, close to her husbands dropping figure, and whose quick ears had caught his speech.

 "Well," said Mrs. Flynn, as he came to pause, ''an what is it you've found out diff'rent?'
 "Why, Sabriny," said MT. Flynn, low ering his voice, as if his nearest neigh bor was close at hand instead of half a mile away, "why, Sabriny, these aint mountings round here at alll Ezry, he lives right in tn heart O tn White mounting kentry, an I've seen 'em- them mountings-r'arin up in front O me day in an out, whilst I've ben there vis'tin with himi"
 "Well, what of itr' inquired his wife.
 "Why, Sabriny," said Mir. Flynn, in a still lower tone, "these that we've allus called an calc'lated was mountings, ain't anythin more th'n jest far sized hum- mockses. They're booty and slightly, but that's all they be-jest mod'rate, far sized hummockses.
 "I didn't let on to Ezry," said Mir. Flynn, as he rose and proceeded slowly to the barn, "but felt's if I sh'd hev t reg'late my idees all over again when come home. That's everything ye can rightly call 'em-jest far sized, slightly hummocksesr'-You Companion.

PropeIlers in the Center of the Boat

The only seagoing steam vessel that has propellers in the center of the boat instead of in the stern is named Le Louvre, and it plies between Nagaire and Paris, thus taking in its course sea, river and canal. It is a small vessel. The two screws are in two tunnels in the center in front of the engine. The tips of the blades do not project below the keel. One advantage claimed for this invention is that the screws can be ex- amined easily in case of accident, as it is only necessary to introduce com pressed air into the tunnels and force out the water.
 It is reported in France that larger ocean vessels are to be built with this arrangement of the propelling power. This system of propulsion is modifca- tion of that of Thornycroft, which has been employed for years on the torpedo boats of the Brazilian government and the police boats on the Nile. York 0sa.

Daily tobacco leaf-chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1890-1895, 1892-07-04

The gouramis are chiefly remarkable for
the fact that they build nests like birds,
At the breeding season they pair off, each
couple selecting Il spot among water plants
and forming a nearly spherical nest, com
posed of peculiar kind of floating weed,
which grows in tufts on the surface of the
ponds, and plastered with mud. The nest
is usually about six inches in diameter, its
construction occupying the fish for five or
six days. Where they are propagated their
task is made easier by placing in the water
branches of bamboo, to which punches of
the grass referred to are attached. The
gouramis take this grass and with it make
their nest in the submerged branches of
bamboo When it is finished the female
deposits her eggs in it to the number of
from 800 to 1000.
While the eggs are undergoing the pro-
cess of incubation the parents guard the
nest watchfully, rushing fiercely at any in
truder, and this care for the safety of their
young is continued after the latter are
Matched. During infancy the young ones
find refuge in the nest from a thousand
dangers which would otherwise threaten
them, and the grass composing the nest
furnishes them with their earliest food.
When they are a few days old the small
fry begin to make short excursions from the
nest, always in charge of their parents and
swimming together in a shoal. This is
continued until they are able to look out
for themselves, Washington Star.
