The Sponge Animal.

If the sponge as brought up fresh
from the sca-bottom were a familiar
object, says Doctor Lydekker, few
would be in doubt as to its being an
animal. When fresh, it is feshy-
looking substance covered with firm
skin, and If cut it presents somewhat
the appearance Of raw meat. Its cav
tiles are filled with a gelatinous sub
stance called milk" American sponges

INDIAN PICTURES.

In the summer of 1898 the Govern.
ment Indian Bureau invited all tribes
Of Indians in this country to send dele
gates to an Indian Congress, and they
gathered from far and near with their
ponies and tepees and gaudiest trap
pings in the Exposition Grounds at
Omaha. Never before had there been
and never again will there be such a
gathering. There were about 1--WE hum

How an Entorprising Pennsylvania Boy
Is Making His Fortune.
From the Philadelphia Record: Thos.
Mintzer, a 14-year-old lad Of Consho-
hocken, is probably the most energetic
youngster in Montgomery county.
Through his own devices he earns SIS
a week and only works on an average
of six hours day. His business Is
meal carrier. About three months ago
Tommy called on the employees OF the
different mills and offered to carry
their meals for Is cents week. AS
many of the mills are running night
and day his offer included suppers as
well as dinners. Most of the en-
ployes were paying Is cents week for
the same service, and the boys offer
was promptly accepted. At first Tom
my was able to carry the dinners in
large express wagon, which was hauled
by goat, but as he steadily gained
large push cart, which he fitted up
with shelves. His business finally in
creased SO much that he had to hire
horse and wagon. His customers now
number 100. III order to give general
satisfaction Tommy starts out with the
dinners at II a. III. and delivers those
that are farthest away. He then makes
a second collection at HAS o'clock
and. as these customers work in mills
near their homes, the boy manages to
have all the dinners delivered by 1905
noon. His weekly collections average
$3.50 and as he pays $4.J0 for the use
of the horse and wagon it leaves SIS
clear. which is moro than some Of his
oldest customers earn in the mill. 5

The Russian Calendar.

The Russian government has, after
years Of discussion, resolved to give up
the old style, or Julian, calendar,
which is twelve days behind the Gre
gorian systeE1. The old style was a
source of great annoyance to Russian
merchants doing business with other
countries, who were forced to use both
dates. 1t was also annoying to for
eigners trading with Russia. The St.
Petersburg Astronomical society has
taken the matter in hand and the nee
essary details will be arranged. 1t is
expected the new calendar will come
into effect in 1901.
