CoLLARs of ribbon and lace are in general use. The one object in making up these collars is to evolve some orig inal idea either in shape, trimming or combination.

SEA ANEmoNE AND eARNAcLs,
An Odd Par or Chums to Ec Seen in the
 Aqaarlur at Castle Garden.

An Odd Par oT Cbums to Te Seen in the
 Aqaarlum at Castle Garden.
 The sea anemone is very sensitive. 1t closes at a hostile pr thoughtless touch, not rapidly, for it can't do anything very rapidly, but as rapidly as it can, curling its tcntaclcs inward and cover ing them over with its outer skin and Gattcning it down upon the rock, says the New York Sun. But it i3 not dis turbcd by it's friends. In ono of the smaller glass tanks at the city's aqua rum at Castle Garden there are several little sea uncmoncs taken from spiles and stones about tho battery Tn the same tank, almost within reach of these ancmoncs, arc some common baruaclcs- little ones, half an inch or SO in diam ctcr. Lacking in beauty as the barna- cle may be, it is provided with most wonderful hand-lilSc member, which it throws up from its shell, with which it sweeps the wa ter for food, the minute animalculgo upon which it feeds.
 One of these pharmacies is so close to one of the little an emoncs that when he filings his net t almost or quite touches the tips of the apemone's ten tacles, which spread ont from the top of the anemonc's trunk like the most del icatc and feathery of branches of the tiniest little tree. Bat tho anemonc doesn't close upa bit; here, down deep in the tank, its branches wave in the gentle agitated water, as, delicate as they are, they might do in the gentlest zcphyrs on the land, and they wave and wave as the barnaclc throws it's net. Perhaps the sea anemone has it's own benefit in mind through all this, for it is quite probable that the agita- tion of the water brings toit food that it might not otherwise receive; but, however that may be, the fact sc- mains that the little anemono that would close tt the slightest touch of an enemy is quite undisturbed oy any thing it's friend and neighbor the bar nacle might do.
