Anemone Facts.

Naturalists have duly recorded that
that if sea anemone be divided in
halves longitudinally new animal will
in time be reproduced by each half, as
Stunning the anemone is kept in pure sea
water. An old zo61ogist relates how he
watched an anemone which somehow
or other had contrived to half swallow
one Of the valves Of an oyster shell.
Practically the shell struck in its giz-
zard and gradually cut its way down
through the soft tissues of the anem-
one until it halved the animal as by
a partition. Perfect reproduction of
two anemones through the division of
one was noted to be the result Of this
accident. Even a fragment or two Of
an anemone body left attached to its
rock may in due season reproduce a
new body.-London News.

COMEDIAN SAM VALE.
He Was the Original of Sam Weller
of PickyvicIx Fame.

He Was the Original Of Sam Weller
of Pickwicix Fame.
The original of Sam Weller was Sam
Yale, an English low comedian, who,
in the early part Of the last century, was
quite popular In the south of England.
In the year 1911, and for a few years
after, he made quite reputation in the
musical farce called ''The Boarding
House." written by Beasley. In this
he played the part Of Simon Spatter-
dash, a person who INDUCED in odd and
whimsical sayings. "Come on, as the
old man said to-the tight boot" 81 am
down on you, as the extinguisher said
to the candle. ssIet every one take
care Of himself, as the donkey said
when dancing among the chickens" /"
are fair Illustrations of his witticisms
in the course of that play, the resem-
blance between them and some of the
sayings of Sam Weller being very
marked. In private life Vale was a
wit, and many. good things in his own
tire were cred tied to a man o.
excellent temper, he had 10 enemies
and the good humor which pervaded
every saying, together with the droll-
cry of his manner, gave his witticisms
unusual value His sayings were called
Sam Valerisms, and on the appearance
Of Pickwick in 1886 the character OF
Weller was generally recognized as q
portraiture of Vale. The comedian died
in 1913 at the age of ffty-one.

ANXIETY.
EGects of This Form of Mental and
Physical Derangement.

Elects of This Form OF Mental and
Physical Derangement.
In a paper read before the congress
of French alienists at Grenoble DR..
Castor Lalanne pointed out that
anxiety is a disturbance which is ex-
pressed by the entire being. The ex-
citing causes are sometimes physical
and sometimes psychical, and the
symptoms manifested are both phys
ical and mental. The physical symp-
toms comprise cold feelings and chills
of the scalp and body, general lassi-
fude, coordination of voluntary
movements far more apparent than
real emotional colorfng Of speech, and
vertigo, which is dependent upon vase
motor cerebral disturbances or upon
digestive troubles. IN the anxious
states there are always circulatory
troubles. such as accelerated heart beat
irregularity of the hearts action
heightened arterial tension and cold
ness Of the e1tremities. Respiratory
disturbances are also present.
The psychical symptoms of anxiety
include various degrees of vague dreat
and apprehensiyeness, often taking
definite forms, in which case they ar
designated as "phobias'' or "obession
of fear weakening the capacity of at
tention and of memory, and a tend
ency to confusion Of ideas. Halluci
