RACING ON LIVE TURTLES.

In many zoos the children are al- lowed to ride on the backs of ele- phants, camels and other animals for small fee, but the only place where tortoises are used in this way as steeds is at Hagenbeck's famous ZOO in Hamburg, Germany. Here there are a number of green tortoises brought from the islands of the Paci- fic, where they live to a great age and grow till they weigh several hum dred pounds, being protected by the fact that there are no animals on these is lands to prey upon them.
 Ordinarily all turtles are very tim- id and at the least alarm they draw their legs and head into their shell, but the Hagenbeck ones have become used to human beings and are quite tame and familiar. Such juicy vegetables as lettuce are their favor ite food, and when a child is placed on the back of one he is furnished with a stick having a head of lettuce tied to the end, which lettuce being held just ahead of the poor turtle, lures him orward-reminding us of case of the man who thought of the ingenious method of keeping up his old horses speed by hanging some oats just in front of his nose. but far enough away to be out ofhisreach.
 A horse has intelligence enough to soon see through the deception and the trick would not work with him, but tortoises, like some people, do not make much use of their brains, and they are easily taken in. They have a fair-sized brain. but 1t has been proven that they can live and get along just about as well without it. as they will survive and keep &C., tive for many months after all that organ has been removed. Sometimes tortoise in this zoo manages to catch his rider mapping and thus gets hold of the lettuce. Otter the ehil- dren will have races on the backs of these queer animals and then there is great fun. both for riders and ons lookers.-Pathfinder.

We'll, you should have seen the steady stream of appli- cants coming into the office last even ing short time after the paper had left the press. Those who did not come in to hand in their names sent them by letters and many more tele- phoned. Why the noon mail brought "a dozen more answers not to mention others which will undoubtedly float in this afternoon and evening.

 Before the professor could speak there came a perfect storm of misses from the class. and when he did speak the misses drowned what he said. Then he left his place and went down to the student whose feelings he had unintentioaally hurt, threw his arm around him and drew him close.

 Or you ask of the boatman who rows you. How can you pull all day against the current of the Nile?" And he smiles. and. lifting his brown arm. he says to you. Look: am as strong as Rameses the Great"

E.Yina Fish.

Interesting are the habits of the fly ing fish. that queer deaizen of the sea found principally In the region of the trade winds Does it rise from the sea like n bird;" you ask. No. It shoots out of the waves like an arrow. and with outsprcading wings sails on the wind In graceful curves. rising some times. one might say. to the height of fifteen feet. but not often SO high. and then. lowering. 1t again touches the crest of a wave and renews it's flight This operation may be repeated till 1t covers a distance. say. of J00 yards in the case Of the stOutext on the wing. though very often not half that dis tance IS covered A ship sailing through the trade winds will often be visited on dark nights by flying fish which hit the sails or rigging and fall on deck. where Of course they soon give up IIfe.-st Nieholas.
