How Sea Urchins Swim.

Sea urchins, or "sea eggs" have n
queer method of locomotion. They are
protected by sharp spines, but these
SpineS do not cover all the surface.
This is divided up into segments, like
Il rough rinded melon. The narrow
segments are pierced with holes.
Through these small holes the sea
eggs protrude little tubes, which act
as feet in the following curious way:
The animal initiates the tubes in the
water from little suckers ut the back,
and in this way it pushes itself for
ward. The tubular feet are fitted to
every side of the creature, which is
thus enabled to move in any direction
it pIcases.

note-a different name beginning each copy:

slightly unconventional request, but the that

Fifteen duplicates of this note were slipped into
fifteen envelops bearing the names of the fifteen
eligible men in her set. She posted them with
smile of infantile guielessness and awaited deve-
opments. On various mails in course of the week
came fourteen acceptances-the fifteenth man

West and wouldn't return in three weeks.

Jane grasped the back of chair for support
She wondered if Fate wasn't playing her a queer
prank to send Bob Forrest back that night of all
others after an absence of ten years. She and
Bob had been chums away back in those careless
days when she had been a tomboy without any
society troubles Then Bob had been taken abroad
by his father, and since then he had done wonder
full things and his of late had come to her
only and then in the papers. The school-boy
and schoolgirl correspondence had ceased long
since.
'How did you all know l was coming?" Forrest
asked perplexed as he looked around on all his old
friends. He found it hard not to show his dis
appointment at not seeing Jane alone after SO long
a time.
Everyone laughed

as the natural means for expressing what would otherwise find no utter ance. It is one of the links that bind into one the past, present and the fu- ture Of the English race
 But of all songs inspired of patIl- otism end born in the fierce passions Ol war, "The Star Spangled Banner has the greatest hold on the American people. It is the product of one of the most romantic and thrilling events in our national history.
 It was in the latter part of August, 1874, that Dr. William Beanes, an old resident of Upper Marlborough, Mary land. was captured by General Ross of the British army and held a prisoner on the Surprise. The doctor was a personal friend of Francis Scott Key, then a young lawyer of Baltimore. Key resolved to go in flagship to General Ross. He found the English fleet in Chesapeake bay, and was kindly re- ceived by Admiral Cochrane, but the enemy was about to make a combined attack by land and sea upon Fort Nc Henry, and while General Ross con- sented to the release of Dr. Beanes, it was stipulated that all of the Amer ican party should remain on the Sur prize until the fort was reduced.
 All during that eventfuI night the great guns of the fleet fired a blaz- ing shower of shot and shell upon the fortress. Key. standing on the deck of the English ship, in the midst of a terrific bOmbardment, could see at in tervals by the glare of the rockets and the flash of the cannon, the American flag waving over it's defenders. In the stirring enthusiasm of that supreme moment, and at the dawns early light, when the Stars and Stripes rose above the smoke Of the conflict and seemed to wave in triumph from the very bat dement's of heaven, Key wrote the song that should be as deathless as the flag itself.
 It was only a few days after the words were circulated throughout the city that a gathering of army coal- rades took place at a one-story tavern standing next door to the Holiday Street theater. Key was present, and read the song two or three times, and the pathetic eloqUence of the lines electrified the soldiers. When some one demanded that they should be sung, Ferdinand Durang, being ac- Quainted with an old English air, "The Anacreon in Heaven" quickly made the adaptation, and, mounting a chair. sang the song with such voice and feeling as threw the hearers into the widest state of excitement.
 It has been said that
 Some singers sing but a single song
 And the world remembers every
 word.
 While others sing their whole lives
 long,
 IT en die at last unknown. unheard
 Key was the singer of a single song, and his name will not fade from the minds of men as long as the Stars and Stripes endure.
 In the near future when one more star-a star for Arizona-is added to our glorious banner, the enthusiasm with which the French sing the Mar seillaise" the Germans "The Watch on the Rhine" and the English God Save the King" will be overshadowed by the patriotism with which the Ari- zona Americans will sing The Star Spangled Banner"
