The sea has it's flower gardens. but the blooms are not on plants as they are on the land It is the animals of the sea that make the gardens. the corals of the tropical waters particu- larly making display of floral beauty that fairly rivals the gorgeous coloring and delicate grace presented by land flowers So closely do they resemble plant blooms that it is hard to believe that they are wholly animal in organi- zation. A naturalist says that among the coral gardens there are fishes of curious forms and flashing colors dart ing about. just as the birds and butter
 files dart about plant gardens on land

Poison In the Middle Ase..

In the middle ages so little was known of toxicology that all sudden and mysterious deaths were attribut- ed to poison. but in the light of mod ern knowledge many of these. says the British Medical Journal. are now cas- fly explained by such diseases as ap- pendieitis and gastric ulcer. Even the Borgias can be absolved from many of the poisonings laid to their charge. Nevertheless from early times in Italy poison was, favorite means of Ire moving" an enemy. Tn England. France and Germany cruder methods of vengeance prevailed. and 1t was not until the sixteenth century that the Aedici introduced poisoning into France. The fashion spread with ter rible rapidity. and poison was employ ed in every rank of society to get rid of inconvenient persons. The art in- troduced into France by Catherine de Medici and her followers took root so deeply as to blossom later into the black magic of Louis xIv.'s reign.
