The Spread of Life.

One of the problems that continually
confront the naturalist is to account for
the distribution of identical forms of life
among widely separated localities. 1nves-
tigatiOn frequently shows that this has
been accomplished in many ways that ap-
pear quite simple when once discovered,
although one would. hardly have thought
of them in advance of their actual detec-
ton.
Some interesting facts have recently
been CLEANED concerning the dispersion of
fresh water mollusks, accounting for their
appearance in emo and isolated ponds.
1t appears hat water owl play al impor-
tant part in this work. Ducks have been
known to carry mussels attached to their
feet a hundred miles or more. Bivalve
mollusks not infrequently cling to the toes
of wading birds and are thus transported
for considerable distances. Even aquatic
insects nave been known to carry small
fresh water mollusks attached to their
legs.
In such a manner does nature compel
the various inhabitants of the earth to as
sist one another whether they will or not.

HIS
1t Didn't Turn Out In Exactly the way Tie
Hoped.

There is in a prominent State street
business hOuse Il b~ookkeeper who has an in
ventive mind. And this ~bookkeeper has,
too, a charming little home on Garfield
avenue, Of which he is naturally proud.
The house is a handsome combination of
brick and stone, and in front Of it there is
a lawn something larger than d Column
bian stamp.
If the owner is proud Of the house, he is
doubly proud of that lawn. In the long
summer evenings he has sat on his porch
and admired it; in the calm, drowsy mid
night he frequently left his couch to see if
it was still there. He just fairly lavished
the wealth of his affections upon hat lawn.
Early in the spring he bought a mower,
and with it he trimmed the grass, but in
the course of time he became convinced
that the mower was q clumsy machine in
deed and entailed too much hard work in
it's operation.
So the bookkecper of the inventive mind
went to work to manufacture q lawn
mower that would operate itself. For
some weeks he has been toiling during
spare hours in his little shed behind the
house, and the other evening he invited
the ~neighbors over to see the machine at
work. 1t was larger than the ordinary
lawn mower and had innumerable wheels
and springs.
You see, said the inventor, the ma
chine is wound up like a clock, and then
it will work continuously for three hours,
and all q man has to do is to hold the han
die and guide it. Now watch me while I
press this knob and set il in motion"
He pressed the knob while the neighbors
watched, and the mower started off brave

went wrong with it, and it gave a snort
and two or three convulsive jerks and
became unmanageable. The owner, who
tried to hang on to the handle, was slam
med against a tree with such force that he
knocked the bark off, and then the mower
whirred after one of the neighbours, a cor
pulent broker and chased him around the
house three times, finally causing him to
climb a tree.
1t then attacked a valuable bird dog be-
longing to another ~neighbor n sliced the
animal shamefully, leaving fragments of
it all over the lawn. Somebody had the
presence of mind to send for the police,
and a squad of officers SOC arrived, but
before they appeared the frantic mower
had Topped off the hind legs of a horse that
was tied at the curb and made mince-
meat of a half dozen Poland China chick
ems, and it was trying to NOW its way
through the tree when the police arrived
and chlorofor1ned it.
Seventeen suits for damages ave been
brought against the bookkeeper, and the
neighbors have such contempt for him
that they are throwing all their old tin
cans and lead cats on his cherished lawn,
and he hasn't enough courage left to make
a protest. Next year he will use a scythe.
