snapdraaon Seed Pods.

The antirrhinum, or snapdragon, is
one of the old fashioned garden flow
ers known by every one. Although it
is a visitor from southern Europe, it
has been here so long that it has be-
come naturalized. When we say
"lion's mouth" frogs mouth" "calfs
mouth" rabbits mouth" we mean
snapdragon, all these names being sug>
gested by its grotesque masklike corol-
la. But there is something still more
grotesque if we will wait till the seed
time and gather the dried, brown
skeleton Of the seed pod. Look at
them sideways. under a bright lamp
light if possible, and you will find they
have quite a resemblance to a rhinoc-
eros. Remove the calyx and the lit
tie horns on the nose and look at them
from the front, and they have a still
more striking resemblance to human
skulls, and by turning them about you
get all sorts Of queer expressions on
the grinning mouth.-St. Nicholas.

Hurry.

To our own age belongs the credit
of having raised hurry from the de-
graded position Of a disease to that of
commercial process. Formerly bur
ry simply brought people to an early
grave, with nothing to show for it,
whereas now it is become the means
of Transforming peace of mind, which
is a solecism, to say the best of it, into
ready money. Hurry has grown to be
great fact in life. Even the fash
ions take account Of it until women
are found doing up their hair in such
way that they may go the speed linn
it without fear of its coming down.
And the best of hurry is that it is its
own sufficient justification. Nobody
expects hurry to have any particular
reason behind it any more.-R. B. in
