THE LOBSTER'S SHELL.
A New One IL Grown Before the OLD
One IL Cast on.

n NSW ohS ~ eFONNn bSIDEe Nne OI@
One IL Cast on.
Odd as II may sound to say 80, the
lobster grows before, not after, he
casts his old hard shell-that Is to say,
he makes new cells and tissues, which
are not at once filled out, but which
are intended to swell to their full di-
mansions al soon as he has got rid Of
bis binding and combining external skel-
eleton. When the critical moment at
last arrives a new soft shell grows en-
tire within the older and harder one,
and the animal then %withdraws him
self, leg by leg, claw by claw and
swimmeret by swimmeret, out Of the
enveloplng coat Of rail which covers
him. The shedding of the old coat is
complete and absolute. Not a frag-
ment remains. Even the apparently ill.,
ternal hard portions are cast off with
the rest, for the entire covering forms
n cintinuous piece, the interior por-
tons being really, so to speak, folds OF
the skin inserted inward.
An entirely new skeleton had already
grown within the old one, but exceed
ingly soft and flexible in texture, and
the body becomes SO almost fluid or
jellylike--not in structure. but in pow
err of compression and extension-that
eve the big claws are drawn out
through the narrower apertures of the
joints In a perfectly marvellous man
ner. After a longer or shorter period
Of muscular paroxysm the soft lobster
at last disengages itself entirely from
the dead shell and energies upon the
world a new and defenseless leshy
creature. The whole cask skeleton, un
ruptured In any part, but d~isengaged
by lifting up the body piece where II
joins the tail, looks exactly like an en-.
tire dead lobster.

A FORTUNATE MISTAKE.
The Result of Putting . Couple Of
Wires In Wrong Terminals

Wires In Wrong Terminals.
A large number Of the worlds great
est inventions have been the result Of
some accidental union of forces the
nature of which the person who start
ed them neither understood nor sus-
pected. The working Of dynamos at
long distances apart when properly
connected was discovered by accident.
A scientific journal says: "Soon after
the opening Of the Vienna exposition
In 1873 a careless workman picked up
the ends of a couple of wires which he
found trailing along the ground. He
fastened them In the terminals of a
dynamo. to which he thought they be-
longed, while they were really attach
ed to another dynamo that was u n
ming In another part Of the grounds.
The dynamo to which he fastened the
wires was not running, but as soon as
the wires were placed In its terminals
it revolved as II q steam engine was
driving 1t. The workman was amazed.
The engineers and electricians were
astonished by the discovery that a dy-
namo electric machine (turned by
steam power) would turn another sim.
liar machine a long distance away II
properly connected to 1t by electric
wires. Thus originated n of the
most revolutionary applications Of cleo.
tricity."
The fact that power can be transmit
ted for miles by electric wires is one
Of the most important factors in mod
ern civil engineering achievements.

A Charge Of Cruelty.

From time to time unfounded
charges Of cruelty are made against
nurses, especially those engaged in
mental as. ms. A striking instance
occurred recently in the case of a nurse
at a county asylum. She was on visit
ing room duty, and a newcomer was
asking people who had been visitors
for some time as to the treatment Of
the patients.
"Oh," was the reply, they treats the
poor souls cruel here. Why, they gives
'em a bath every week."
