A Weed That Eat. Fish.

Az English naval officer, writing
from Suakin, Red sea country, contrib
utes the following remarkable instance
of plant preying upon one of the ver-
tebrata. The instance noted was OBJ
served by him when surveying the
Paracel islands, in the south China sea !:
"As I neared q pool cut off by the tide
from the sea l noticed among other
submarine plants very ordinary look
ing flesh cOlored weed. Bending to
inspect it closer, | noticed numbers of
small fish lying helpless i'll it's fronds,
apparently with little or no life in
them. Putting my hands down to pick
one of them up, | found my fingers
caught by suckers on the weed, the
fronds of which had closed tightly
upon them.
'The fish had been caught in every
conceivable way-by the head, the tail.
sides, etc.--and some of them had been
held until the skin was completely
macerated. Those Of the fish that
We're still living had evidently been
caught at different times, they appear
ing in all stages of exhaustion. I re-
greet being unable to name either the
plant Or the fish, but that the botanical
cannibal really preyed upon the fnny
denizens of the deep there isn't the
least doubt"

A Literary KIeptOmanfac.

Among French writer's no one car
ried the profession Of the literary brig
and to such an extent as Nine. de Gen
lis. In 1880 her evil ways brought her
into the courts Of law under very dis
creditable circumstances. Bout, the
publisher of a series of manuals, en-
gagged her for the sum of f16 to write
a Manuel Encyclepedique de FEN
fance.'' The manuscript, which had
been paid for. was on the point of be
ing printed when it was discovered to
be an exact copy of book of the same
kind published in 1920 by M. Dasscha.
I do not find it easy to understand the
audacity of a writer who would perpe-
trate a fraud of such enormity or the
imbecility which would suppose that
it would not easily be detected.
Another time she contributed to 4
Paris newspaper feuilleton which
turned out to be a close reproduction
of a romance printed some twenty
years before. Surely the poor woman
suffered from literary kleptomania.-

When ReDtiles Ruled World.

There was a time sin the wide re-
volving shades of centuries past when
our globe was wholly in the possession
of walking, swimming and flying rep
tiles. Being the dominant type, they
divided naturally into three great
classes. In the oceans they became gi-
gantic padding enaliosaurians; on dry
land, or, rather, wet land, for the whole
face of the globe was doubtless a
quagmire at that time, they became
monstrous, erect dinosaurians, some of
which had legs fifteen feet or more in
length; those which inhabited the re-
gions of the air were the terrible flying
pterodactyls.
For vast but unknown length of
time these awful creatures literally
ruled the earth. Finally after they had
''seen their day" they began to grow
less and less One by one they died
out in the face Of the younger and more
vigorous fauna until at the present
time only few miniature alligators
and crocodiles and a few toy snakes
remain as reminders of skulking liz
ards and geckos and of the enormous
reptilian types that once crowded land
and sea.

Helping q Sculptor.

When MacmOnnies, the American
sculptor, was young man working in
Paris, Falguiere, the famous French
sculptor, on one occasion entered his
atelier and found there a beautiful
Diana that had been for months ION
the stocks and was approaching a
perfection measurably satisfactory to
the sculptor himself.
Falguiere became so absorbed in the
work before him as to forget that it
was not his own. He began to twist
and pull the dainty limbs of Diana this
way and that, to punch her in the ribs,
turn her queenly head-for she was
then only in clay, Of course, and sus-
ceptible to impressions-until at last
he had produced the very pose he de-
sired. There, my friend; like her
better so,' he cried and skipped out of
the studio.
He had really intended to do Mac
monnies a favor and had indeed paid
him the greatest compliment of which
he was capable, but the young sculp-
tor was in distress, for on comparing
the remodeled Diana with photo
graph of Falguiere's statue of the
same character he found the French
man had unconsciously made a prac-
teal replica Of the other. Macmon-
mics did not rest until he had restored
his statue to it's original pose.

Reason and Instinct.

A certain north country miner was
particularly proud of clever little
dog he possessed. At times he was apt
to claim a little too much for his pet,
and one morning a neighbor was en-
deavoring to point out the difference
between instinct and reason when an
amusing interruption occurred.
A seedy looking tramp turned the
corner, and the dog, without SO much
as word from his master, sprang into
the road and offered battle.
There you are" laughed the miner
as the dog snapped and snarled round
the heels of the tramp; "'e don't like
the look of the chap. That's instinct. y
Suddenly the tramp turned and kick
ed the dog into an adjacent field.
There you are" calculated the min
er's friend grimly. 1.-The chap don't
like the look of the dog. An that's
reason. "-Iiondon Tit-Bits

The Man In the Moon.

Life, whether vegetable or animal as

accompanied by changes from exces-

A Sight For Sarah.

Of certain bishop, famous as about
the plainest man in England. the Liv-

One day as this homely parson sat

as follows:

come downstairs, and, pointing to the
astonished parson. said, with grin
of delight:

The wrong Roll.

IE.f&ediately after wedding which
took place in Washington the best man
started for South Africa, where he re-
NAMED more than a year. On his re-
turn, says writer in Harper's Mag
azine, he was given a dinner and wore
evening clothes for the first time since
the wedding.
In the midst of the evening, fun
bling in his waistcoat pocket, he as
tonisbed himself and his friends by
pulling out Il hundred dollar bill.
Where had it come from? \ sudden
thought flashed across his mind.
The next morning he went to the
clergyman who had married his
friends.
do you remember marrying Mr.. Az
mitage and Miss Bently about year
ago."
"Oh, perfectly" replied the clergy
man. 81 see them constantly at my
church."
''Well, will you pardon me if 1 ask
you a delicate question in strict con-
fdence. How much did you receive
as your fee?"
81 will return frankness with frank
ness,'' returned the clergyman, smiling
whimsically. "It was the strangeSt
fee that ever came my way. After
theceremony the best man, with pro-
fusion of thanks, slipped into my hand
a small silver of plug tobacco wrapped
in a wad of paraffin paper!"
