The Sea Pen.

/ think of all wonderful things
the sea pen is one of the most
unique. Once it was thought that
the sea pen iioated about in the wa
ter, but such is not the case. When
the Irish fisherman hauls up his
nets, he finds the sea pen very often
sticking to them. lie called it the
"wonderful stick"
Each separate plume of the sea
pen is alive. Some people have call
ed il street because it is row of
cells or houses for the polyps to live
in. In these rows of houses the
polyps live by hundreds and eat
away, as usual. What one polyp
eats helps to nourish the rest Yet
each polyp is quite independent of
its neighbor and pushes out his head
and draws it in just as he pleases.
A sea pen does not seem TO have
any power of turning itself over.
When il has been placed in vessel
of water, il has always remained
still. So students have come to the
conclusion that it lives with its stern
buried in the mud at tine bottom OF
the sen. Ii is very beautiful and
contains great quantity of phos-
poius, which il throws out when an
! enemy comes near. 1t is curious. Is
i it not, that even this form of life,
which seems as insnimate as YER
liable stick, should display intelli
gent action when in danger: The
giving out of its blue phosphorus
ligh: is apparently its only mode OF
frightening away an intruder.

Prof. Dubini at Milan discovered the ex-
