DESCRIPTION OF A SKATE.
LandIubber Gives One That Is Clear
if Not Scientific.

LandIubber Gives One That Is Clear
if Not Scientific.
The barrdoor skate beggars descrip-
ton. l never could tell whether he
was looking at me with his eyes or his
breathe-holes, says writer in Coun-
try Life in America. He is a bottom
fish and fiat like a founder. He has
triangular body, the apex of which
forms the snout; opposite his snout
are his tail and few extra pieces of
his overcoat, which kind nature has
tagged on him in case he gets torn
and has to be mended. His tail Is en-
bellished with a few spincs-this
know for fact.
He has a couple of eyes, little way
back of his snout, and right back Of
these are couple of holes that ex-
tend completely through him. These
holes connect with his lungs. or what
ever he uses to breathe with, and
have an ur comfortable way of looking
at you at the same time as his eyes.
He has mouth, too, but it is on the
under side of him, and convenient for
business. 1t is funny thing, with
spir es on the lips, and when you pull
the lower jaw the upper jaw moves
with TIA sort OF automatic trap, not
unlike what you can see in any 10-cent
restaurant. This is landlubber's
description, but it is enough.

WEAR GLASSES DURING SLEEP.
Aahjt ~ Ia Claimed, Win cprp Eases
of Insomnia,

The idea Of wearing pair Of spec
tacles during. sleep is one Of the
strangest of the many strange ideas
that have come to our notice, says
London Answers. The head of large
firm, who often travelled from one end
OF the country to the other, preferred
to do so at night, so that he could
sleep. Although his sight was perfect,
his last act before getting into his
berth was to put on pair of spec
tacles, which were secured to the
bridge of his nose by good spring,
and with this adornment he fell
asleep.
Those who adopt this peculiar aid
to drowsiness appear to sleep without
twisting and turning, as some people
do; they instinctlvely acquire knack
of turning only so far as is safe, and
they awake unframed in the morning,
with the glasses just as nicely ad-
iusted as when they went to bed. The
commencement of the habit Is mostly
traceable to a difficulty in wooing
slumber and to an aversion to trying
such dangerous remedies as morphine.
Spectacles, when the eyes are not &C.
customed to them, have a sonnolent
effect, and the device afterward be-
comes a habit.

In an English Garden.

A curiously Whimsical idea has been
carried out at the suggestion of Mrs.
Rothschild. Yews, clipped in the old
world formal fashion of two centuries
ago, stand by the pleasant walks and
fountains, two cut in the form of a
table and armchair, and two in the ia
miliar peacock fashion. Hard by one
of the fountains stands the quaint sun
dial. The shadow of q tall tree falls
upon huge clock face, indicated on
the green sward by figures grown in
golden yew. A heart-shaped bed
marks each corner, and, beyond the
figures, there is motto in golden yew,
dainty fancy worthy of Herrick, but
really due to Mrs. Rothschild's Light
and shade by turns, but Love always"

Travellers Tricks Shown Up.

Many have looked with awe upon

gage had over the poor stay-at-homes
The baggage proclaimed that
it's owners had been from
Sydney to San Francisco, from
Copenhagen to Colombo, to say
nothing of visiting half the capitals

But the iconoclast has found shops

score of foreign towns, although it
may never have travelled two miles

CARE OF PLANTS IN WINTER.
Air and Sunshine Chief Requisites TO.
Window Ornaments.

Give plants all the fresh air you
can. Open doors and windows at some
distance from them on pleasant days
and give them a chance to breathe in
pure oxygen in liberal quantity. Give
all the sunshine you can. And aim to
keep the temperature Of the room be-
tween 20 degrees by day and So at
night. 1t will probably exceed these
figures In both directions, but try to
regulate it in such a way as to avoid
the extremes of intense heat and dan
gerous cold.
Use water literally on the foliage
OF your plants. By washing off the
dust it keeps open the pores OF the
leaves through which they breathe and
1t tempers the hot dry atmosphere
usually prevailing in the living room.
The only way to modify this condition
is to keep water constantly evaporat-
ing on the stove or register and make
frequent use of the sprayer.

A laugh is just like sunshine,

And drives the clouds away;
The soul grows glad that hears it,
And feels it's courage strong
A laugh is just like sunshine
For cheering folks along.
A laugh is just like music,
It fingers in the heart,
And where it's melody is heard
The ills of life depart:
And happy thoughts come croWding
Its joyful notes to greet
A laugh Is just like music
For making living sweet!

In New York,s Touch Districts.

The experiences of the Bellevue hos
pital ambulance surgeons in the I'M
lighted districts skirting East river,
New York, where it is not safe even
for policemen to venture sometimes,
have led the hospital authorities to
equip the instrument bags carried by
the surgeons with tubular electric
dark lantern, sixteen inches long and
two inches thick, weighing about two
pounds. 1t serves equally well as
lantern and a night stick. According
to the stories of the surgeons, when
they have returned from calls to par
ticularly dangerous districts, the de-
fensive end of the contrivance has
often proved more useful than the
electric ends.
