The Grace of the Zoophytes."

The "Race of the zoophytes."
Much of the superstition in poet
~, says Andrew Wilson in the Lon.
don Graphic, is due to the imperfec.
tons of science. Crabbe, for exam
pie, wrote of the Zoophytes that he
styled "a race, which science, doubt
ing, knows not where to place." In
Crabbe's days at Aldborough he be-
came familiar with the "sea flowers"
with which the sea wrack was often
mixed. To him they represented
singular growths that were neither
animal nor vegetable. Yet even III
Crabbe,s day the zoophytes were
known to represent colonies Of ami
mails growing in the strange verisi-
Multitude of plants. At the very
least the poet committed no vital
error, for he knew the race involved
in sea wrack" was a living one, and
he duly commented on the difficulty
OF science placing it in any category
OF satisfactory kind.

A Cat Story.

This is true cat story. A GER
tain cat, much petted and adored,
is believed to understand language,
he having repeatedly acted upon
what was said to him, but he did far
more and better. He obeyed literal
~. The man of the house is a great
hunter. He loves to shoulder his
gun and bring down small game,
and one morning when he was set
ting forth for sport his wife called
out, eff you will bring home rab-
bit / will make a pie The cat sat
by, but said nothing. A few hours
after, while the wife was busy with
her sewing, the cat appeared by her
side carrying rabbit in his mouth,
and then, dropping the game be-
side his mistress, began to sing and
purr like q tin kettle on the fire.
Nothing will convince the friends
Of this wonderful cat that he doesn't
understand all that is said in his
presence, and they are now really
afraid to mention want, as the
dear fellow will think he must i'm

Republican Convention

Notice is hereby given that there will
be Republican Delegate Convention, for
San Juan County, Washington, held At
the I. o. O. F. hall in Friday Harbor on
Thursday, Sept. Is. 1906, at o'clock in the
afternoon, for tho purpose of electing
seven delegates to the Republican State
Convention, to be held in Seattle, Wash

for the nomination Of q candidate for the
legislature and candidates forEall county
Offices, and to transact any other business
which may properly come before it.

The straightest Line.

The strangest thing in nature or
art is a ray of light when passing
through a medium Of uniform den
sity; hence the eye is enabled to test
the straightness of an edge or tube
by holding it as nearly as possible
coincident with a ray of light, such
parts as depart from straightness
then intercepting the ray and caus-
ing shade to be cast upon other
parts It is not known at what early
period in the history of mankind the
discovery was made that straight
ness could be thus determined. It i
certain that thousands Of mechanics
use the method daily without being
able to give a rational explanation
OF it. This primitive mode Of test
ing straightness, on account of its
great convenience and accuracy, Is
likely to continue in use to the end
Of the world.

APin Money

Pins were unknown at the begin
ming of the sixteenth century. Poor
people used a sort of wooden skewer,
while the rich used silver, bone OF
lockwood. When pins first came into
use they were so expensive that only
fashionable people could indulge ii
them, and they were given as New
Year gifts and greatly appreciated.
It became customary at last for hus-
bands to give their wives the money
to buy them instead, and 80 the
term pin money!" meaning an u
lowance for small personal sxpenss
