London Fog.

Over the mighty city, amid certain
atmospheric conditions, the particles
of carbon form a canopy that OBJ
structs the passage of heat and of
chemical rays from the center of life
the sun. There is a lowering OF
the temperature. and animal vitality
is diminished. Pure fog mist, such
as we see in the country. does NOT
seriously interfere with solar chem
ical energy.
Mist is simply condensed vapor.
When it is frozen the particles form

Of carbon or of sulphur. If the vapor

Queen Margherita Of Italy is a happy
woman, in that she is SO well beloved
not only by her people, but by her nus
band, the king. She has long been
known as one of the beauties Of Europe,
but she has now begun to realize the
flight of time, and recently said to her
husband, with some usefulness:
Il am too old to wear white gowns
any longer"
The king did not contradict her, bnt
smiled and said, Let us take a fort
night to think over the matter"
At the end of that time came a large
packing case filled with white dresses Of
every description and of the utmost ele-
gance. The case was addressed to the
queen and, prettiest of all compliments.
it contained a card bearing the words:

SIreAd of the English LANGUAGE.

In 100 years the United States will
probably have as many inhabitants
as China, and it is not likely that
Canada, Australia, Kew Zealand and
the Cape will fall much short of halt

reckoned with them. Some have in.
deed been found to maintain that
English will not be the language OF
the whole even OF the United States,
while others point TO the vigorous
vitality of the French spoken by the
French Canadians and the recrudes

islands as hints that languages die
hard. But it is impossible to sup
pose that such considerations can af

Eels spawn like other fishes. For
long, however. the most remarkable
theories were held as to their birth.
One of the old beliefs was that they
sprang from mud; a rival theory held
that young cells developed from frag-
ments separated from their parents
bodies by the rubbing against rocks.
One old author not only declared
that they came from May dew, but
gave the following recipe for produc-
ing them: Cut up two turfs Gov

The Home ASuariunn.

An aquarium in which plants are
grown will not require the changing
Of water. except occasionally, when
the tank needs to be cleaned. The
growing plants give off oxygen and
absorb carbonic acid. To arrange
an aquarium with plants, cover the
bottom of a glass globe or tank with
gravel which has been thoroughly
washed. Half fill a small flowerpot
with earth, and plant in it a small
Egyptian lily; then fill the pot with
well washed sand. Place the pot in
the center of the tank and surround
it with stones, so that it may be held
in place and at the same time con.
cealed. On top of this pot, and
around it in the rocks and gravel,
set out a few fine moses and vines,
such as grow i'll fresh water. Let
watercress and hornwort be among
them. A north exposure is best for
this aquarium. Put in the fish and
feed them on bits OF meat, crumbs
of bread and worms.--Ladies' Home
