A slnr Steam crner,tnr.

A slag steam generator, for utilizing the waste beat contained in tho furnace slag for the production of steam for mo- tive power purposes has been designed by an Australian inventor. The ma chine consists of steel shell in the form of strong ogg ended receiver. having fAttcncd faces on the tUp and bottom, and through these fat portions a number of Galloway tubes arranged in two rows and tapered from inches at the top to 10 inches at tho Lotion are passed, secured to the she'll by Hanges. The lower OF larger end of each tube is closed by means of cast iron door manipulated by means of con- senient lever, and the upper end of each tube is provided with funnel for con. veying the slag into the tubes a pair of iron rails also passing across the upPcr face of the boiler and all tho tunnels, thus serving as a tack for the slag pots.

Peter conner on Intere.t.

Peter Cooper was always q careful and prudent business man. He was al- ways opposed to the methods of many merchants, who launched out iE exuay. agant enterprises on borrowed money for which they paid exorLitant rates Of interest. Once while talking about a project with an acquaintance tho latter said he would have to borrow the money for six months. paying interest at Che rate of 8 per cent. Why dUyou bor- row for 50 short a ti1neT Mir Cooper asked Because the brokers will not negotiate bills for longer" "Well, if you wish, said Mir. Cooper, "I will discount your n0to at that rate for three years. Are you in earnest:" asked the would be borrower Certainly l am. ] will discount your note for S10,- 900 for three years at that rate. Will you do it:F ''Of course ] will, " said Inc merchant. "Very wei, said Mir. Cooper, just sign this note for ei0,- 900, payable iR three years, and give me your cheek for $500, and the transac- ton is complete" But where is the money for mel" asked the astonished merchant. Youdon't t get anymney, was the reply Your interest for SC months at per cent per month amounts to 105 per cent, or Sl0,s00. Therefore your cheek for $500 just makes us even.

THE ANGLER FISH.
tt Secures It's Prey Like an Artist, With
 Regular Strategy.

tt Secures It's Prey Like an Artist, With
 Regular Strategy.
 There is fish that secures its prey like an artist, with regular strategy, and, strange to relate nature has fur nished it with full equipment for the purpose, rod, line and bait. The an- gler. as it is called is by no means a beauty. It is about a yard long and has huge, toadlile head, an enor- nous, gaping month and a formidable array of teeth. The first dorsal, or back fin, is almost wholly wanting its place being occupied by two CT three long, slender, movable spines which arc fas- tened to the body by means of joints One is attached ny q hinge, which per- mi;s of only backward and forward mo, ton.
 The first spine is connected by a reg ular ring and staple and admits of movement in all directions, as it is pull ed this way or that by the muscles This is the angler pole, which cuntin- ues into a fine iilament or line, and at the end there is a loose, shining slip of membrane, which plays the part of bait.
 The angler fish is a slow swimmer, and it would have but little sncceSs if it had to chase the swift, active fishes upon which it feeds, SO it snares them. Par tially hiding itself in the mud or sand, 1t waves its long flaments with their glittering tips A5is well known, fishes are sttracted by gfstening objects moved about in the water The neigh boring fishes, following tho instincts of their inquisitive nature, come to exam inc the curious object, and suddenly they find themselves snapped up in the wide jaws of their hidden foe.
 The angler is a very voracious cIea- ture. and on several occasions 1t has been known to seize a fish that had been booked and was being drawn to the surface. In one such case the angler seized a codfsh and would not lcusen its grip until it was struck on the head with boathook. On another occasion the fish fell victim to its own glut- tony, for having dashed at a couger eel that had just been hooked and having taken it into its mouth, tho ell con- triyed to escape through one of the gill apertures, and thus it was tho uncon- scious means of involving it's captor in itsown fate.
 Even the cork floats on lines and nets have been swallowed by the greedy fish, and when taken in net it de- yours its fellow prisoners with perfect unconcern. Mary M, Friend in Fhila- delphia Times.

AnInteI,lpeot Bird.

A species of woodpecker inhanits the driest parts of Mexico, where during the droughts it must die of starvation unless it made a store To prevent this it selects the hollow stem Of species of aloe, tie bore of which is just large enough to hold nut The woodpecker drills holes at interval in the stem, and fills it from bottom to top with the nuts, the separate holes being apparent ly made for conveniencoo of access to the column of nuts within.
 The intelligence which not only con. structs a special storehouse, but teaches the woodpecker to lay by only the nuts, which will keep, and not the insects, which would decay, isperhaps the high est form of bi1d reasoning which has vet lieen olasorye1 London Spectator.
