PLANTS THAT SLEEP.

Plants sleep as truly as do animals. The best-marked form of slumber in the vegetable world is the winter rest, when so many forms of vegetation re- tire to the soil together with the dor mant animals-dormice, squirrels and bears. Ali 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 the 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 10 the casual glance the possl- bility of folding. And that is just what they do. Each leaf folds over an 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.

SEVEN LADIES

KleptomsnI,.
 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 sev- en ladies who wandered about from one counter to another without Suyjng anything. After watching these ladies for some time, the detective called ID 8 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 a 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 commls- 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- maniaes'' into consideration, has all lowed them their liberty upon heavy bail.

 YAWNING
Mast Now Re Considered High Com
 pIiment.


 pIiment.
 Have you ever observed at theater or concert that the people who are most deeply interested appear between the acts to be quite weary of the whole thing, yawning half a dozen times in succession? The reason of this is a physiological one. When your atten- tion is much absorbed in anything ex- citing or touching, you breathe in very shallow manner, and take into 3pur lungs only half enough air. Con- 8equently, when your attention is re- faxed, you have to make up the defi- ciency. This you do by yawning which, after all, is only breathing a very deep breath If you watch a man at a play, and observe that he is greatly moved by some incident, you may feel sure that when the scene ends he will sigh, and a moment or two later yawn repeatedly. Of course the yawning. so far from being sign of weariness, is proof Of the liveliest appreciation. Very often you will ob- serve the same phenomenon in a girl reading a novel. And by her yawns you can tell when the end of some ab- sorbing Incident is reached.

CHINESE PRAYER.
Inspired by the First Sight of
 Bicycle.

A Baptist missionary once sent home an account of prayer offered by Wang Cheng Sui on the occasion of the visit of two Americans who were on a tour around the world on bicy- eles. After the bicyelists had ridden to the mission station Wang prayed; We thank Thee, our Heavenly Fa- ther, that our eyes have this day seen the real pattern of the 'self-going cart of the ancients. What mysterious wis., dom is Thinei How willing Thou art to impart knowledge to menl But our sins hinder. Thy revelationsl How stupid have we become through serv- ing Satan so longl Many years have we lived, aud yet today for the first time we have seen this marvel of Thy skill which has enabled Thy servants in the West to understand. Forgive our sins. Restore us to Thy favor. Communicate to us, also. Thy mys- teries, and let us share in the wonder ful inventions by which Thou dost make Thy name glorious amongst those who serve Thee. Let us be in. trusted with Thy secrets, and possess the power of the ancients; so with all our countrymen come to know that we have found the right path. and are servants of the true God" The mis- sionary thinks is very likely that such prayer will provoke smile, but he bids us believe that Wang was in red hot earnest, and that he simply felt that he had witnessed miracle anu was giving God the glory.
