BatherS From Water

Cold weather has not been the only
cause Of the absence OF bathing at the
lighthouses lately. During the south.
erly weather millions Of Portuguese
men.o'-war" were blown into port and
congregated in the comparatively
smooth water near the boat houses.
These little creatures have a sting
similar to that Of the squid, and for

bathers. The latter finally retired be-

Eeen given a clear field. Since the
weather changed thee have been dis.
appearing, presumably returning again
to the open sea.
The Portuguese man.o'.war" is q
common but peculiar specimen of sea
life. The body is about Ave inches
long. thin and worm.like. Back of the
head is sail. much like that OF a

shifted and lowered at the will, OF
the midget mariner. The tail and body
make up the steering apparatus in
fair or foul weather. Beneath the
body Of the little creature is con.
t!mation Of little needles which enter
an object and sting like the business
weapons of a centipede.
