FARMS IN THE DEEP SEA,
Artificial Propagation of Sponges Is
 Now a Recognized Business.


 The sponge. like most other of na- lures gifts, Is in danger of being ef- faced by reason of the ruthlessness of man. Growing upon the surfs of the ocean, largely off the Florida coast, they have been comparatively easy of a good market for them the rocks have been stripped without regard to the needs of the future. Anticipa ting the exunguishment of this useful fungus, the government has been making ex- periments to demonstrate the practica- bility of it's artificial propagation and ere long there will be a stock farm of sponges on the Florida coast, where man can go and buy eggs or young sponges as he would buy hens eggs or calves now.
 Some time ago Dr. H. F. Moore be gan experiments at Sugar Leaf Key, about twenty five miles east of Key West and at several places in Bis cayne Bay. Several thousand sponge cuttings were planted at these places under a variety of conditions. The chief problem confronting the experi- menter in this field is to find some ready means of attaching the cuttings to durable support, capable of resist ing the action of salt water and the ravages of the teredo and animals hay ing similar destructive habits and which at the same time will not have an injurious effect upon the growing sponge. The cuttings live and their cut surfaces heal without difficulty.
 About six weeks after the plants were made they were examined and under favorable conditions 1t was found that about 95 per cent of the sheepswool cuttings were alive, healed and apparently healthy. In several cases where the plans were made in places exposed to very strong currents many of the pieces were torn loose from their supports. while others had been killed by rough action of the cur rents.
 The cuttings from yellow sponges suffered a much greater mortality than those made from the sheepswoo, sponge, but whether this be due to the more delicate nature of the animal or to the accidental conditions under which they were planted is not yet determined.
 So far as has been discovered the more valuable sheepswool sponge seems to possess greater hardness than Its cogener.

THE GUEST.
He Showed the Beauty of Giving Ur
 Ones Rights.

oue's h1kuIes
 Many years ago a girl found herself suddenly denied a pleasure to which She had been looking forward for many weeks. The very morning of the ex- cursion an unexpected relative drop ped in" The carriage. even by crowd. some reason of necessity or courtesy made 1t impossible for any one to stay at home except the girl. The situation was evident from the first moment. The girl looked round the group gathered for nasty and secret confer ence with stormy eyes.
 Tt isn't fair!' she cried. Every sin gle one has been before except me. Because I'm the youngest haven't any rights:"
 A guest entered the room just in time to catch the angry outburst. Clearly he had stumbled upon a scene" but 1t was too late to retreat. With the charm that never failed him he turned to the girl
 An, Miss Peggy. these rights" he exclaimed. They are troublesome things aren't they? How they do dog us all our lives. Really. the best thing know about them is that, since they are our rights, we have the privi- lege of surrendering them for others" And then, after taking book from the table, he left the room.
 The girl stood still; she could not understand. but dimly she seemed to catch a gimspe of a wide country of beauty. When she came to herself, her mother was speaking:
 If only I could give you my place, dear. But I cant stay when Cousin Betty has come. You"
 The girl spoke briefly. "I'll stay" she said.
 The others praised and petted her and promised her many things, but she slipped from them as quickly as possi- ble. She waited until she heard the carriage start. and then went down to the still. sunny garden. Suddenly she stopped for on the bench, with the sunlight falling across his fine old face, sat the guest, with a volume of "Hor- ace" In his hand.
 A quick color rose In the girls fore head, for this guest, whom they all ad- mired. was connected in her mind with her disappointment.
 Il believe you're practicing what you preached," she exclaimed.
 He looked up with his charming smile. Not at all," he said. T sim ply exchanged pleasures, And then he added something strange: Child, there are so many kinds of happiness if one has the patience to search"
 The guest went his way a day or two later. and the girl never saw him again. But all her life after the thought of the privilege of giving up her rights came to her as the memory of a still, secret corner In a summer garden where one looked out into the high country of beauty and honor which is the homeland of the soul.- Youths Companion.

When child I had very severe att tack of Diphtheria, which came near prov. ing fatal. Upon recovery the glands of the neck were very much enlarged, and after the free use of iodine, the right one was reduced to its normal size, but the left one continued to grow-very slowly at first, until it was about the size of goose egg, which began to press on the wind pipe, causing difficult breathing, and be- came very painful. An incision was made and large quantity of pus discharged. The gland was removed, or as much as could with safety be taken out For ten years wore a little piece of cloth about an inch long in my neck to keep the place open. During this time had to have it cut open by the doctor every time took cold or the opening clogged In the Spring or early Summer of 1884 was persuaded by my wife to use S. s.
