CUNNING ANIMALS.
Those That Feisn Death For the
 Sake of Protection.

The habit of feigning death for the sake of protection can be observed among many of the lower animals animals which differ widely in family, genus and species Indeed, this habit .ls to be observed in creatures micro scopic in size and of exceedingly low organization, as well as in those as high in the scale of animal life as man himself, for even man does not hesi- late on occasions to avail himself Of his natural subterfuge when he thinks t will aid in the preservation of his fife.
 With the aid of the microscope one an observe and study the natural his Ory of the minute animal world, which therwise would remain a closed and nread volume. This instrument has hown me beyond cavil that creatures s low in the scale as actinOphryans. ery minute. microscopic animalcules. ractice death feigning when surprised an enemy from which they cannot herwise escape. Thus I have, says
 naturalist, repeatedly seen actiDO hryans fold their delicate, hairlike gs or cilia and sink to the bottom of cir miniature lake Ca drop of water hen approached by a water louse hich preys upon them. They remain

HALTlNe A COLD.
wat to Do When You sneese or Feel
 the Warning Chf1I.

A cold, as nearly every intelligen, person knows, Is the result of a stop page somewhere of free circulation of the blood, to which one is first sensi. tive through feeling of chill. & slight is the chill oftentimes that moi until the preliminary sneeze comes is the victim aware he or she has beei, in a draft, or that the temperature has changed.
 The usual notion Is that by going l.. doors, by changing to heavier clothin" or retreating from the moist atmos phere the danger Is averted. Thes precautions are all well enough, bur the first and most efflcacious measur should be to restore the quick flow O warm blood through every vein, an 30 by heat instantly cOunteract the little chill.
 When the temperature of the bod, or extremities is lowered, or a sudde-l chill or quick change from warm c. cold temperature Is endured, take three or four deep breaths through th, nostrils, expand the lungs to their full est extent, holding the inhaled afr a> long as possible, and then slowly ex hale it through the mouth. In doln; this the inflation of the lungs sets tlic heart into such quick motion that tle blood is driven with unusual forcC along its channels, and go runs out int the toes and finger tips, and sets up | quick reaction against the chill. IL short, the whole effect Is to stir th> blood and set 1t in motion as iron rapid exercise Ledger

An Odd Argument.

Here is a knOtty problem suggested by Sir Henry Roscoe in his autobiogra phy. Two men argued as to whether oil or water were the lighter. The firsl man contended that the oil must be lighter, as 1t floats upon water. AnG then the unscientific man triumpha6 with the argument that oil must be the heavier because it keeps the water down.

THE FRENCH MEAL.
ItM Greatest Charm Is the Cheerful
 Table Talk.

ItH Greatest Charm Is the Cheerful Table Talk. After all, excellent as are the dishes and the order and manner of their serv Ice. the table talk Is perhaps the chiec glory of the French meal. 1t Is no unusual thing to hear our
 countrymen and countrywomen, espe cially our countrywomen, refer to eat ing as a necessary evil, like the pre-
 scrlbed dose of noisome medicine; as
 an altogether bothersome business to
 be disposed of as quickly as possible
 with an air that Is sour, aggressive disgusted, languid, patronizing, dream ful, whining or discouraged, according
 as 1t springs from dyspepsia, puritan
 ism, interrupted hustling anaemia. af fectation, esoteric philosophy, disap pointment in love, or honest weariness with a hard and monotonous daily round.
 Such a sentiment would scarcely be uttered in France, where the attitude toward the table Is universally cordial
 and respectful, and 1t could not br taken seriously if it were. The French writer who said, "IhC
 ta able Is the sole place where one is never bored during the first hour,
 voiced perfectly national feeling Smart Set.

When the Earth Wa. Top Shaped.

W AAEAA hMG hSsAN hAA Vv&D 4SU S00PSO'
 After people dropped the old fash toned idea that the earth was as fiat as pancake they did not immediately grasp the globe or spherical idea as it Is applied to worlds The people of the time of Columbus believed that th> earth was body shaped like top or cone, the surface rising from the north to the south. There are several letters written by Columbus and still in existence which go to prove thot such was his conception of the ehape of the earth. The top shaped idea oa the earth seems to have originated with one John Blauvis about 1479 and to have immediately become very pop. ular.
