"The examination Of teachers is an
illustration. Statistics recently given
out by the state department of edu-
cation show that Of the 26,138 persons

AN ELECTRIC PLANT.

A plant has been discovered in Nicaragua which appears to be charged with electricity. If one of its branches is touched with the naked hand, a distinct shock is felt similar to that produced by bat tery. Its influence upon a magnetic needle is noticeable at a distance of half a dozen yards, and as one gets nearer the plant this influence in- creases; while, if the instrument is placed in the center of the bush, it will assume a deadly circular nove- ment. The intensity of the phenom- eonon seems to depend entirely upon the time of day.

GREAT SCIENTIST SAVED.

Here is curious little story about Sir James Simson, the man who introduced the use of chloro- form into surgery, and peril which he escaped, as recorded by Lyon Plavfair Simpson, when busy with his researches into the subject of anaesthetics, called one day on Playfa1r and asked if he had any thing new likely to produce anaes- thesia. Playfair had just prepared liquid which seemed worthy of trial. Simson, who knew no fear, prepared instantly to test 1t on himself. This Playfair refused to allow until it had first been tried on rabbits. Two were procured and placed under the effects of the an- aesthetic. Next day Simson pro- posed to try it on himself. "We might as well see how the rabbits have fared,' said PIayfair. They found both the animals dead.

TOYS THAT REFLECT HISTORY.
Children's PIaythings Show the
 Spirit of the Age.

A little of every age of civiliza- ton is in its toys. The future his- torian will have no difficulty in reconstructing our age if he finds merely a few toys in dusty garrets 9r museums.
 Do you know what the little chil- dren in the early days of the perse- cuted Christians played with? l have always thought it at once pa- thetic and horrible; they played with little toy instruments of mar tyrdom.
 So to-day childhood plays with the things of science. What went oversea this year from Paris and Nuremberg were toys of wireless telegraphy, electrostatic machines, electric tramways, automobiles driven by alcohol or electricity, elec- tric torpedo boats that plunge and come to the surface again, cinemato- graphs, for the magic lantern is declassed, and chromatropes, that present colored and moving pie lures; these scientific fancies of the moment and a dozen others.
 I looked at them one and all, and amazement grew upon me. What kind of a little boy is he who plays with these somber and in- tricate toys?
 And then I remembered that even the little twentieth century boy IS one of the wise people; in his un- tiring wisdom he knows that toys even ruhmkorff coils and geissler luminous tubes and voltameters- are best when broken, and I foresaw for him splendid moments, inquir- ing, destructive.-Everybody's.
