Conger cells hunt for the octopus and,
when found, proceed to browse on its
limbs. The octopus tries to hug the
slippery, Shiny conger tight, but in
vain, and, finding Its limbs growing
less, discharges Its ink In the face Of
the foe and under cover Of the turbid
water beats hasty retreat. 1t is to
escape the too pressing attention of it's
foes that the octopus possesses the
power Of changing Its color to CORE
spond with that of its surroundings.

A Marvellous Tree.

A marvellous tree is reported to have
been discovered in the San Jacinto
Mountains, on the borders of Mexico.
The leaves Of the tree resemble those
of the fig In shape, but they are of vivid
purple and covered with bristly hairs,
which easily penetrate the skin, causing
painful swellings. The flowers are red.
and greatly resemble tarantulas.
The most peculiar feature of tie
plant however, is the heavy and 81 *
ening odor it gives off. A few wili.fs
of this produces Inconsistencies In
fact, the discoveries of the tree were
rendered insensible by it.
AS the plant seems to have no bo-
tanical name, it is proposed to call it
either the ''Tarantula Plant" or the
"Chloroform Tree"
