The Corpse Plant.

From Tft-Bits.
There is a very remarkable plant which
grows in the colony of Natal. Its popular
name is the corpse plant. 1t grows TO
very considerable size, and its principal
feature is bell-shaped throat something
like the flower of an arum lily, but much
larger and deeper, and opening into hol-
low stem.
It is almost black in color, and covered
with a thick glutinous secretion. Its prfn-
cipal characteristic is its loathsome odor,
strongly resembling that of decaying car
rion.
By means of this it attracts carrion-feed-
ing birds to it. Once they alight on 1t they
are lost. Their claws become entangled
in the secretion, the beil-shaped mouth
folds up, and they are literally swallowed,
feathers and all, and digested by juices
secreted in the throat of the plant.

MinimiXes Danger.
In the same way that the corn pith en-
ables our fighting vessels to keep afloat,
even after holes nave been punched in their
sizes, it may be used to add to the safety
of merchant and passenger ships. Most
ocean disasters result from collisions be-
tween two ships or from vessels striking
upon hidden rocks. AS the cellulOse pack
ing swells to nearly ten times its original
bulk under the influence of water 1t would
serve to close up even the yawning hole
torn by a liners PROV when she strikes a
