SAILING CRAFT OF A SNAIL.

There is a small snail which is so
fond of the sea that it never comes TO
land. and il builds such capital boat
for itself with its eggs that while large
ships are sinking and steamers are un-
able to face the storm IL tosses about in
perfect safety.
The little snail is Of violet color and
is therefore called Ianthina. 1t has a
small shell, and there projects from the
under part of the body a long, tongue
like piece OF flesh. This is the raft, and
ii is built upon most scientific prin-
ciples. for il has compartments in IL
for air. II is broad and the air COM
partments are underneath, so that IL
cannot capsize.
Moreover, the snail knows how To
stow away It's cargo, for the oldest eggs
and those which hatch the soonest are
placed i'm the centre and the lightest
and newest on the sides Of the raft.
The Ianthina fills It's own air compart-
ments by getting a globule OF air un-
derneath it's head. the body il then
curved downward beneath the raft. and
the head being tilted on one side. the
air rushes in and fills the spaces. 1t
feeds on a beautiful little jelly fish,
which has a fat. ft-like form with a
pretty little sail upon il, and they con-
gregate in multitudes when the sea is
calm.
Sometimes specimens are washed up
on the northwestern coast Of France.
and when they are handled they give

A CHINESE MINT.

A machine company Of Bridgeton N.
j., has recently furnished machinery
for a mint at Chengtu, China, which is
said to be of sufficient capacity to turn
out 5000 dollars and $4,000 coins smaller
than a dollar per hour. IL is intended
to make dollars, half dollars, twenty
five cent pieces, dimes and fve-cent
pieces. The same company also sup
plies the machinery FOR new mint for
making copper cash at Wuchang, which
with capacity of $4,000 cash per hour,
has been operating about two months.
The Bridgeton company delivered the
machinery for the mint at Chengtu free
on board at Ichang. the head OF navi-
CATION of the Yangtz River. where IL
was taken I'm charge by the Chinese au-
thorities, whose treatment OF IL was
characteristic. They left the boxes In
which IL was packed on the banks OF
the 1chang, so close TO the water that
when n slight food came, the boxes
were under water and covered with a
muddy deposit from the river. In this
state they were taken 20 Chengtu,
which journey consumed two months.
When the boxes were tnally opened
they were found TO be caked up solidly
with mud except where the rats had
dug holes and made nests while the
boxes lay at the arsenal The machin-
cry was finally put together. but the
dies were so badly rustcd that they
would have been condemned In an
American mint However, the Chinese
made no objections 10 the impcrfections
i'm the coins. pcrhap. thinking that
these imperfections were additional
safeguards against countcrfeitlng.

WOMEN DIPLOMATISTS.

If imitation be the sincerest form Of
nattery decision Of the Russian min
lister Of public instruction which has
just been promulgated, should be re-
earded as peculiarly gratifying to Eng
Iishmen. although the object i'm view is
calculated 60 furnish them with serious
food for reflection.
The satisfactory results obtained in
India through the various women's mis-
siCns established there of late years
have been studied with great interest
by the Russian government for some
time past writes a correspondent from
st. Petersburg.
The excellent means that such n sys-
TEN would present for the "Russifica-
tion" OF Oriental races was fully recog-
nized. and several years ago. as tenta-
tiVe measure, special facilities for the
study OF several Oriental languages
were accorded to a carefully selected
group OF lady students at st. Peters
burg.
The yesuts appeared so satisfactory
TO the Russian government that ar
rangements have now been made by the
minister of public instruction for the
immediate opening OF special classes,
reserved exclusively FOR women, at ST.
Petersburg and at MOSCOW. I'm which.
