Kitty pulled up the window and sank
back into her comfortable corner seat.
The trst.class compartment contained
no other passengers except the charm

crimson-feathered toQue, who consulted
her complexion in the strip of looking
glass before she fell to overhauling her
bags and packages.
The journey was tedious, and would
be certain to be cold one upon this
keen. frosty January day.
But Kitty-who always was distin-

The Snow Flower.

A traveller in Siberia tells us about a wonderful plant found ill the northern part of that country, where the ground is perpetually covered with coating of frost and snow It is called the snow flower, and the description of it's birth and it's short life reads like fairy tale
 He says it shoots out of the frozen soil on the first day of the year and attains a height of feet. On the third day it blooms, remaining open for only 24 hours. Then the stem, the leaves and the flower are converted into snow-in other words, the plant goes back into its original elements.
 The leaves are three ill number and the flower is star shaped. On the third day, the day the bloom appears, little glistening specks appear on the extremi- ties of the leaves. They are about the size of the head of pin and are the seeds of the flower.
 It is said that some of these seeds were gathered once and taken to St. Pe- tersburg, where they were buried in a bed of snow. The first of the following year the plant burst forth and bloomed. just as it does in Siberia. Philadelphia Times.

A MOVING MOUNTAIN.
It Is Travelling Slowly but Surely Dow
 the Columbia River.

It Is Travelling Slowly but Surely Down
 the Columbia River.
 A travelling mountain is found at the Cascades of the Columbia. It is triple peaked mass of dark brown basalt, six or eight miles ill length where it fronts the river, and rises to the height of al most 2,O0O feet above the water. That it is in motion is the last thought that would be likely to suggest itself to the mind of any one passing it, yet it is a well established fact that this entire mountain is moving slowly but steadily down to the river, as if it had delib. crate purpose some time in the future to dam the Columbia and form great lake from the Cascades to the Dalles In its forward and downward move. ment the forest along the base of the ridge has become submerged in the riv- CT. Large tree stumps can he seen stand ing dead ill the water on this shore.
 The railway engineers and brakemen find that the line of railway which skirts the foot of the mountain is being continually forced ont of place. At cer- tain points the permanent way and rails have been pushed eight or ten feet out of line ill a few years. Geologists at tribute this strange phenomenon to the fact that the basalt, which constitutes the bulk of the mountain, rests on a substratum of conglomerate or of soft sandstone, which the deep, swift cur rent of the mighty river is constantly wearing away, CT that this softer sub rock is of itself yielding at great depths to the enormous weight of the harder mineral above. - Goldthwaite's Geo. graphical Magazine

 There is only one thing to do, and that is to cultivate charming disposition that never feels any particular emotion. The woman who never gets angry and consequently never has either to repress her feeling or to indulge it, is the one who will reach wrinkleless old age, whowill win golden opinions concerning her amiability and who will never have to seek sanitarium or try the rest cure.

 When girl is young and in the stage of pinafores and bibs, she is told that she must not indulge ill fits of i'll tenn per because it is naughty" That is g matter of perfect indifference to the child, but the punishment that follows an outbreak of fury is tolerably effective in decreasing the number of such out breaks. When she is older, she is warned against temper on the ground that it is a destroyer of beauty and promoter oi wrinkles. Finally, when she has reached the age when neither it's effect upon her appearance nor the danger ill which it places her soul bothers her she is warned against an outburst of temper as being injurious to her health.
 It is claimed by hysicians that to in. dulge in rage is profitless performance and worse than that. It not only has ne effect, as usual thing, upon the thing ragged at, but it exhausts the nerve forces and leaves the angry person weak and tired.

Vegetable DrOpSy.

Some experiments at Cornell uniyer- sity have aroused much interest on ao- count of the developnxnt of what ap- pears to be a form Si plant dropsy. Tomatoes grown ill the warm, moist air of the forcing houses had leaves that were swollen and semitransparent. The swelling continued until the veins of the leaves burst and considerable liquid flowed out. This was caused by too much water at the roots and an over supply ill the air. The leaves were not able to give off the water supplied from the roots and stalks, and the congested condition of the leaves and subsequent bursting of the veins was a true type of dropsical condition.

SUNSET IN THE WOODS.

Here as lie heath shady trees,
 Tn rustling woodland sweet and green, The suns last rays are creeping through And lighting up the shadowy scene. The voices of the wood sing songs
 That cheer the sad and gloomy mind. The wind comes softly through the trees And leaves them whisp' ring far behind. A placid stream runs purling by,
 And at its murmuring edges near The grand old oaks stand close and sway While gazing in its bosom clear. Through all the wood the glowing lights And colors of the setting sun Are touching leaf and sprig and trunk As OCT the quiet stream they run. yellow leaf comes fiutt ring down
 Into it's gently flowing tide. A cricket's chirping in the grass
 Is softly echoing far and wide. The golden tints on forest leaves
 Have slowly faded with the day. The shadows in the evening light
 Grow long and blend and die away. Charles N. Myers in Detroit Free Press.

Three Suns and an Inverted Rainbow.

oaAAA" e1~AA e~A~
 The following is taken literally word for word from rare copy of the Brigh- ton (England) Advertiser of June 6, 1797: "A rare phenomenon is reported from St. Malo. Recently during the aft ernoon, between the hours of 4 and 5, three perfect suns were seen all in a row above the western horizon. The sky was very clear at the time, and there was no one who saw the unusual sight that be- lieves it to have been a mirage or other atmospheric illusion. The central seemed more brilliant than his two lu- minous attendants, and between the three there seemed to be communica- tion in the shape of waves of light com posed of all the prismatic colors. At about the same time rainbow made it's appearance at short distance above the central. sun, upside down-that is to say, the two ends pointed toward the zenith and the bows neck toward the horizon '

Parrots, Puppies, Scrap Iron and Boiled
 Grasshoppers For Sale.
 The articles seen ill the market 1 will here give as they were written down during Sunday morning visit, says a writer in the New York Advertiser. One department is under cover and is filled with assorted fruits, including oranges, lemons, Times, pineapples, pears, peaches. plums, bananas, quinces, alligator pears, cocoanuts and many other tropical fruits, most of which, owing to the high market tax and costly transportation, sell at about New York prices. The streets and sidewalks in the vicinity are lined with men, women and children, who are seated on the ground surrounded by their market products, which include, besides the ordinary vegetable market product, parrots, pi- pet lambs, haltered pigs and kids. Then there are heaps of old iron, birdcages, cheap calico, brass jewelry, boiled corn, potatoes, stewed pumpkins, beans, pep per, cooked and raw pigs feet, sheep heads, hearts, lights and entrails. There are also. f1ints and finder for starting fires, metal mounted stone for grinding corn, roots, bark and medical herbs and dye woods. Close by we see fried shrimp and grasshoppers. Each are cooked whole and eaten so. The latter are about the size of our common grass hopper, but are entirely red, but as to looks would just as soon try to go the common ''hopper' of the north. Besides these the natives gather the eggs of the swamp fly and boil them into paste and eat them with salt, chili (pepper) and tortillas. The fly and its eggs are each sold in the market. The former is somewhat smaller than the house fly, while the eggs are about the size and color of hayseed. In fact, everything is eaten here that the human stomach will digest or anything that is capable of being converted into soup.
 Odorless Flowers.
 One who has taken walk through Shaw's garden will hardly believe the assertion that the majority of the flow CTS of the world are without odor, but such is the case. Take the flora of Eu rope as an illustration. Four thousand and two hundred species and varieties of flowers have been named and classi- fled by the botanists of that country, and it has been found that less than 10 per cent of the whole give forth distin- guishable odors or have perceptible oolors. The very commonest flowers of the world are white, colorless varieties predominating by at least third, and only one-sixth of that class are odorifer ous. In Europe there are 1,194 species of white flowers, only 200 of which are fragrant. In the same country they have 951 kinds of yellow flowers, of which number only 77 are odoriferous. Out of 823 varieties of red flowers they only have 84 that give forth odor, and in 9 of these "the smell is far from being fragrant. <" Of the 594 blue species only 34 are fragrant and of the sos violet blues only 13 Next week we will giyS a '.note' entitled ''The Odor of Flow CTS, ,'' which win give many curious points in that branch of botanical knowledge.
