PLANTS THAT SLEEP.

Plants sleep as truly as do animals. The best-marked form of slumber in the vegetable world is the wintor rest. when so many forms of vegetation re- tire to the soil together with the dor mant animals-dormiee, squirrels and bears. All trees and shrubs hibernate
 Some plants go to sleep every night. The mimosa, or sensitive plant, in day. light opens it's fragile leaves, which are hard at work eating, absorbing tho carbonic acid of the air into plant food. At night the mimosa sleeps and digests what it has eaten, and the leaves fold up double against each other, the stem troops and the leaf is limp and appar- ently dead.
 The wood sorrel in daytime is wide open. The leaves are composed of three leaflets. each with midribs that suggest to the casual glance the possl- bility of folding. And that is just what they do. Each leaf folds over on itself. If flowers kept open cold spring nights the frosts might nip them, rain might wash away the honey and pollen, so they are wise blossoms that cover up their hearts during the dark hours.

Little Korea.

An evidence of Uncle Sam's ability to meet the worlds every need is .the fact that he supplies several govern ments with postal stamps. It has re- gently become known that the Korean stamps are printed in this country. The United States consular reports de- scribe them as of four denominations and all alike except in color and value In the center is the national emblem, an ancient Chinese phallic device; at the corners of the centerpiece are four characters, signifying the spirits that, Atlas like, uphold the earth. while in each corner of the stamp is a plum blossom, the royal flower of the pres ent Ye dynasty, which has held the throne more than 300 years. Each stamp bears inscriptions in three lan- guages-Chinese Korean and English At the top are ancient Chinese char acters and at the bottom their Korean equivalents. On the right are Korean characters and on the left Chinese, giving the denominations, while just below the center is their English translation.

Irish Kieselghur.

At recent meeting of the Dublin Royal society paper was read by MT. Pollok on some large deposits of kieselghur which occur on the banks of the Bann, at the point where it emerges from Lough Neagh. Kiesel- ghur is used now for several industrial purposes, and although the deposit in question is apparently not suitable for making dynamite. yet it is of excep- tional purity and if found in quantity should soon find market. It is stated to be in the highest degree probable that the whole bottom of the Lough Neagh is covered with similar deposit of diatomous earth, which, as is well known, is formed of the silicous re- mains of low forms of aquatic plants. Under the microscope the Bann de- posit is found to consist of little cubic box-shaped diatoms.-London Chron- icIe.

SEVEN LADIES
Of One Family Arrested in Paris for
 KIeptomanIt.


 Kieptomanit.
 Dublin Saturday Herald A detect i've on duty at the Louvre had his att tention called by one of the assistants to the extraordinary attitude of sew en ladies who wandered about from one counter to another without buying anything. After watching these ladies for some time, the detective called up a colleague, and the two together took all seven into custody. On being searched they were found to have se- creted stuffs and small objects of value under their dresses and were imme- diately marched off to the police com missary. That functionary found to his amazement that the troup con- sisted of grandmother, three of her daughters and three granddaughters in comfortable circumstances. me old lady's husband and the husbands of her three daughters were immediately sent for (the youngest ladies of this interesting family are still unmarried), and declared themselves totally ignor- ant of the acts of their wives, who they said made frequent trips to Paris from their home in the suburbs, and often brought home many pretty things; but they assured the commis- sary that they (the husbands) had no notion that these had been come by otherwise than by the usual method of purchase. The commissaire, taking the social position of the "klepto- maniacs" into consideration, has all lowed them their liberty upon heavy bail.

SURPRISE THE WORLD.
Is What Edison Proposes to do at Paris.
AT HIS OWN EXPENSE

/ Thomas \. Edison will startle the
world with the exhibit he intends to
install at the Paris exposition. BY
special arrangements made by MIR. Ed
ison with commissioner Ferdinand w.
Peck, the Wizard of Menlo Park has
decided TO give the American exhibit
at Paris a distinctively American touch
by placing therein the greatest and
most remarkable electric exhibit ever
seen on earth.
Mr.. Peck and Mr.. Edison have been
arranging Tor the exhibit for some
time, but it was not until recently
that the wizard fully made up his
mind to take up the matter and outdo
even himself in the manner he will
employ to show what can be done with
the mystery OF which he is the master
Mr.. Feck's assistants began negotiations
with Mr.. Edison, but made little head
way until Mr.. Peck took up the matter
and used his best arguments with the
great inventor.
SPECTACLE TO BE MARVELLOUS.
Mr.. Edison finally yielded and has
authorized. Mr.. Peck to say that the
Edison exhibit at Paris will be the most
thrilling and tho most magnificent
spectacle that has ever been arranged
in the electrical line.
Il am very much pleased with the
arrangements L have just completed
with MIR Edison" said Mr.. Peck. i
have had several talks with the wizard
and lie has assured me that because OF
my personal interest in the matter he
wifi amaze the world with his exhibit
at Paris. He is patriotic and as he
realizes that America must be ahead
ln all things at Paris he has concluded
to do his part by contributing the most
marvellous exhibit that can he iiliag-
mel.
One. part OF this determination on
/ the side Of Mr.. Edison which i wish to
be made clear is that all lie will do will
beat his own expense, and because OF
his love for the flag, He has nothing
10 sell. Neither will he put in any sort
OF agency. His efforts will be directed
entirely, to making great exhibit OF
American genius, solely because he is
an American and lie realizes that his
land is the greatest on earth. This ex-
hibit will cost Mr. Edison a great deal
of money, but he will not stint things,
J and Americans who visit tile Paris Ex-
/ positjop'will be awed byqhe splendor
andioriginality presented by him.
