AT THE AQUARIUM.


A Feeding Time -gncident Of Life In the
Balanced Tanks.
When the decorator crab gets too big
for its shell, it does what many other
shellfish dot sheds 1t, emerging with
its new shell already formed, but at
that stage of its growth pliable and not
much thicker than paper. In its soft
she'll state it is comparatively defense
less, and it keeps out of the way Of other
shellfish il it can, but its new shell
soon hardens, and then it goes about in
its accustomed manner.
The decorator increases greatly, per-
haps third in size, almost immediate
ly after leaving its old shell, which 1t
scarcely seems possible it could ever
have inhabited, but it gets out Of the
old shell nevertheless without damag-
ing it and leaving it often disposed in
most lifelike form.
The decorators at the aquarium are
fed separately, SO that each will be sure
to get its portion. The food is put down
to them ON the tip of a little stick.
which is shaken gently over them, and
the food, thus detached, falls within the
crabs grasp. There is no current in the
balanced tanks in which the smaller
decorators are, and anything dropped in
the water drops straight down. The
other day there Were found in one OF
these tanks, clinging to the ulva, two
decorators, which were supplied, as
usual, by placing their food in the wa
ter where they would be sure to get it.
Being somewhat pressed for time that
day, however, the man who fed them
did not wait to see the crabs actually
eat. He placed their food within reach
| and trusted them to do the rest.
But glancing in at this tank on his
return from feeding the small fishes and
things in the other balanced tanks he
saw the two decorators that he had
found on the ulva still there and in pre-
cisely the same attitudes as before, and
then he realized that they were not live
crabs, but SEEDLINGS He had been feed
ing empty shells. On taking them out
| Of the tank he found inside of one OF
them the fragment of food which he
had dropped for it, which had fallen
into it through the opening between
the upper and the lower part of the
shell which the crab had made in get
ting out.
! 1t may be that the two decorators for
merly residing in these shells, but now
secure in some distant part Of the tank
with new shells hardening on their
backs. smiled as they thought of the
feeding of their empty shells. 1t is GER
tain that the man who fed them smiled
as he arranged them for preservation in
the aquarium's collections. -New York

CroQuettes.

The secret of having croquettes firm,
lies in their being mixed for long
time. The meat should be chopped very
fine after being freed from all fat and
gristle, and about half pint of milk
allowed to each pint of meat. The milk
should be put over the fire while ia
blespoonful of butter and Q tablespoon
fuls Of -four are rubbed together. The
hot milk is then added, and the whole
cooked to thick, smooth paste. Mean
time, to pint Of chopped meat is added
a tablespoonful of chopped parsley, salt
and pepper to taste, the grated rind OF
a lemon, and teaspoonful OF onion
juice, if that is liked, or some cooks
simply rub halved onion over the
mixing bowl. The seasoned meat is then
stirred into the paste and the whole
turned out to cool. The meat should be
allowed to stand for at least hours be-
fore it is nodded into croquettes. Dip
first in eggs, then in bread crumbs, and
fry in smoking hot fat Powdered shred
ded biscuits will be found a pleasant
variety to the bread crumbs. 1t is
caution, by the way, in the use OF these
biscuits, where bread crumbs are re-
quired, that they are very unsuccessful
in escalloped tomatoes. They are toe
starchy, evidently, to be Of use there,
and they form q gummy mass that Is
not appetizing. York Post.

common Sense In Doing Good.

We want more common sense in do
ing good. Oh, how many people there
are who want to do good and they are
dead failures! Why is it? They do not
exercise the same tact, the same in
genuity, the same stratagem, the COM
mon sense in the work of Christ that
they do in worldly things; otherwise
they would succeed in the other. There
are many men who have an arrogant
way with them, although they may
not feel arrogant in their soul, or they
have patronizing way. They talk to q
man of the world in a manner which
seems to say, "Don't you wish you were
as good as am? Why, l have to look
clear down before can see you, you are
SO far beneath me-" That manner al
ways disgusts, always drives men away
from the kingdom Of Jesus Christ in
stead of bringing them in.-Dr. Tai

Ia Plea For Egypt.

Egypt is parched and dry. The Nile
is low and practically useless for wa
tering the land. The farmer looks in
dismay. There can be no harvest unless
the seed is watered. Is there no supply
for his need? Yes. On the snow capped
mountains Of Africa there is all he
needs, but it is snow, and so useless.
But the fiery sun arises, the snow is
melted, the lakes are filled, the rill
cverfows, and the land is refreshed,
the seed grows, harvest is sure. Men
are as the snow. They need the Holy
Spirit to bless the world. Preachers

From the New York Sun.
The first battle of Santiago (the second
being supposed certain to Gomez, as it was
described yesterday, was especially inter
esting because of introducing into active
life the cruiser New Orleans. Any, ship
might well be proud at making her debut
In war as she did in company with such
grand ones as the Iowa and Massachu-
sets. If there exists in nature the mag
mary force which carries thought and
feeling in unknown ways to distant friends
the bark of the New Orleans guns must
have made her sister ship, the Albany,

ity, in which she IS at present tied tight

ly, the declaration of war found the latter
still uncompleted.
The New Orleans is a protected cruiser
about the size Of our Cincinnati, now with
Sampson, and her sister, the Raleigh, with
Dewey She was built by Armstrong in
England and, coming to us fresh from
the builders hand, she brought the latest
and best fighting contrivances yet deye1-

crash. If charging infantry he will
thunder straight at a man aud knock him
down; IL against line of horsemen, he
will lift his head and front feet as If going
over fence.
A man seldom cries out when hit In the
turmoil of battle. 1t Is the same with a
horse. Five troopers out of six when
struck by a bullet are out of their saddles
within a minute. If hit In the breast or
shoulder, up go their hands and they get
a heavy fall; IL in their leg or foot or arm,
they fall forward and roll off. Even with
a foot cut off by a Jagged piece Of shell a
horse will not dEop. 1t Is only when shot
through the head or heart that he comes
down. He may be fatally wounded but he

he goes gallopIng here and there, neighipg
