In one of the papers of the Cana

ticles upon a species of cannibalistic
plant, known TO the residents of the
tropical portions of America as the
cruel weed, or stranger" The
scientific name of this botanic oddi-
ty is Physianthus albens, and it is in
digenous only TO the western hemi-
sphere The flowers of this queer
plant are provided with five pairs of
Jaws, which are so arranged as to
quickly close upon the proboscis or
head of any unsuspecting moth or
other insect which may attempt to
extract honey from the blossom. To
make sure of its prey this cruel flow
er holds fast as long as the insect
struggles, slowly releasing its grasp
as soon as the writings of the dying
creature cease.
According to the botanists, it be-
longs to the milkweed family tribe
or order of asclepiads). The flowers
are pure white and very fragrant
and much like the tuberose in gener-
al appearance. Those who may wish
to know more about this curiosity
will find a very readable and instruct

When love was large and wits were few.

The forehead lifted 10 the skies.
How rough hill my eager feet
Flung backward when upon its crest
l saw the iluttcr OF the lace
The wind awol;e on Hclcn's breast,
How thornless were the roses then.
When fresh young eyes and lips were
kind.
When Cupid In our porches proved
How true the tale that love Is blindl
But red and white and poverty
Would only mate while shone the May,
Then came a bag Of golden crowns
And jiugied red aud white away.
Grown old and niggard Of romance,
vince not much al aught askew,
And often ask my favorite cat
What else had red and white 10 dor
And here's the bud that rose and sank
a crimson island on her breast
Why should burn IN Once again

ralkativenes. and Divorce In Japan.

Mr.. Hanniker Heaton has been
gathering some very interesting mar
riage statistics concerning the Gus
toms in vogue in different countries,
from which one reads with amuse-
ment, and perhaps with a certain de-
gree of amazement, that throughout
Japan a man may get divorce if his
wife talks too much. Ordinary peo-
Pile may suppose that this harsh law
will have the effect of curling To-
quacity, but it has not. Japanese La
dies are the most talkative of their
sex. and divorces are common among
them. In Thibet a woman is entitled
to three husbands. In Melbourne a
man may secure a divorce if his wife
gets drunk three times, or if she ha
bitually neglects her household du
ties.

reason that his brother possessed

nights young Ranney would awaken
shiveIing, to find that his restless
bedfellow had acquired in the course
of an erratic slumber all the bed
clothes and was wrapped up in them
like an Indian papoose. The boy
bore this infiiction uncomplainingly
for many weeks. Never a word said
he in the family circle of the kicks he
was obliged to submit to, or the cold
baths of freezing temperature which
reused him so often from pleasant
dreams.
One night, shortly after ~ strokes
had rung from the deep toned bell in

household was awakened by loud
hammering, which seemed to pro
coed from an upper room. Father
Ranney hurriedly donned his trousers
and taking a good, stout club for pro

thief unawares. The hammering
grew louder as he approached the
room occupied by his sons. He crept
softly to the door and listened Bang
