Leaves Lungs,

One of the prettiest microscopical
studies is the examination of the lungs
of a plant Most people do not know
that plant has lungs, but it has, and
its lungs are in its leaves. Examined
through a high power microscope,
every leaf will show thousands upon
thousands of openings, infinitely small,
Of course, but each provided with lips
which, in many species, are continu.
ally opening and closing. These open.
ings lead to tiny cavities in the body
of the leaf, and by the opening and
closing of the cavity air is continually
passing in and out, SO that the act of
respiration is constantly going on. The
sap of the plant is thus purified, Just
as the blood of an animal is cleared of
impurities by passing through the lungs
and an avera ge-sized tree will therefore
in the course of day do as much
breathing as a man.

Experiments With War Dogs.

Some very interesting experiments
as to the utility OF war dogs were re.
Gently made i'll connection with the
Dresden International Dog Show on
the race course near Dresden. A
company was supposed to be covering
some transports of horses against an
imaginary enemy. In order to do
this more effectually, some non-com-
missioned officers, accompanied by
trained dogs, were sent forward to
watch the approach of the enemy.
They advanced about mile and q
quarter, while keeping up communi-
cation with the company by means of
the dogs. In this way the company
was kept fully informed as to tho
movements of the enemy, and could
stop the transport of horses in good
time before the attack. The same dogs
wero also used for carrying ammuni-
tion to the firing line, each dog being
provided for this purpose with kind
of saddle holding about 800 cartridges.
The animals will go along the lines,
stopping in front of every man, who
takes the number of cartridges he re
quires. When the ammunition is ex-
hausted the dog will hurry back to re-
ceive fresh supply, and thereupon
resume the distribution. The dogs
are also trained to find the wounded
and attract the attention of the am.
bulance men in various ways, some re.
naming near the man and barking
until assistance arrives, some running
off to find an ambulance man and lead
him to the spot, and others taking til
mans forage cap or tearing away
piece of his clothing and carrying ID
to the attendants. .-Militar- Wochent

TRANSPARENT Cement.

1t is often desirable to mend hand
some piece of glassware that has been
slightly broken, but the majority of
the good cements used for repairing
valuable articles are not transparent
enough for the glass. An excellent

by dissolving in pipkin over the fire,

boil over, half an ounce of isinglass

At all times garters have been con-

to brides toilet. The particular girl
friend who is permitted to slip them
INTO place is conceded to stand the best
possible chance of wedding happily be-

pect of near and blissful matrimony is
also shared by the friend who secures
the privilege of making a brides gar
