Bur.on a Ganlip,

Richard was a regular gamin. His
keen sense of humor, his ready wit,
were always present. He adored
shocking dense people and seeing
their funny faces and stolid belief,
and never cared about what harm it
would do him in worldly sense, l
have frequently sat at dinner table
of such people praying him by signs
not to go on, but he was in a very
ecstacy of glee. He said it was 30
funny always to DO believed when
you were chatting, and SO curious
never to be believed when you were
telling the truth. He had sort of
schoolboy bravado about these things
that in his high spirits lasted him all
the 70 years of his life.-"Life Of Sir
Richard Burton"

Seed Dissemination.

III a recent number of the bulletin of
the Torrey Botanical club Professor By
ron D. Halsted points out that the pods
Of the we'll known Chinese wistaria are
most effective catapults, expelling their
seeds with pistollike explosion and
scattering them far and wide. Every
one knows that our common witch ha-
eel (han,amelis virginica) acts SINH
la1ly. Each cell of the woody capsule
contains one large, bong and shining
seed, wedged into cell too narrow to
contain it. The seed is finally elected
with great force and considerable noise.
If one carries home fruiting branch OF
witch hazel and forgets about it, he ls
alarmed some night by violent bonn
burclaont Even more surprising is the
nrOrU!sivc action Of the sandbox (Hura
"rcpitausy Of the West Indies. On one
occasion an English traveller, carrying
some of this fruit home III a steamer,
had it explode in his trunk, and
with difficulty proved that he was not

The squirting cucumber elects its

vices rcsorted to for dispersion of seeds
is TIE ua2 If hooks, grapnels or adhesive
hairs III some cases, as in co.lomla,
the hairs are not released until the seed

they project and anchor it down. a tuft

in thistle or dandelion, or on seed, as
IN milhweed. 1t is rarely found stimuli

Among trees we commonly observe
winged seeds or fruit, as in naples,

His Mothers Watch.

Mme. Octave Feuillet tells a pretty
story Of her famous husbands youth IN
"Some Years of My Life" During the
first few years Of his literary lators the
au.hor of the Romance of a Poor
Young Man" was himself poor and
struggling.
His father, who had desired for him a
diplomatic career, was bitterly opposed
to Octaves adoption of literature as a
profession. He even went so far as to
refuse to receive his son and to with
draw from him his modest allowance,
bat the young mans aspirations re-
manned unchanged He set himself dill
gently to work at the labor of his choice,
full Of confidence in the future.
During this saddened and restricted
period Of his life the only recreation he
allowed himself, strange as it may seem,
was dancing. Passionately fond OF this
amusement, he devoted all Of his leisure
evenings to it, regularly attending the
students balls, where he would dance
until he was ready to drop from exhaus-
ton. The masked balls Of tho opera had
for the hardworklnS young writer al
especial fascination.
One evening he so ardently desired
to attend one of these balls that he
pawned his watch to obtain enough
money to hire costume for the occa-
sion. Now this watch had been his
mothers, and no sooner had he entered
his attic room than he began to reflect
upon what he had done. Remorse fol-
lowed exhilaration. He resolved to re-
tu1n the next morning to the pawnshop,
give back the money and reclaim bis
watch.
II passed the night he said after
ward, gazing upon the 10 francs l had
received, my heart beating painfully, my
eyes filled with tears, and asking myself
if woud really be strong enough to
absent Myself from the ball.
The following day he proved the
strength Of his resolution by returning
to the pawnbrokcr and redeeming his
watch. AS in this instance, he was
throughout his whole life actuatcd by IA
sense OF duty and constrained by the
most delicate sentiments.
