"A diller, dollar, a nine clock scholar what
makes you come SO soon?
Now you come at nine O'Clock, you used to come
at noon"
Since mama washes with Fes-Naptha soap, she
has plenty of time,
And always gets me ready, to come to school at
mne."

rhe Candle Tree.

One of the wonders Of the vegetable
kingdom il undoubtedly the candle
tree of Panama. known to botanlsts
as parmentiera cerifera. This tree
produces from its stem and older
branches Il great profusion of yellow
fish. cylindrical. smooth fruits. twelve
10 eighteen inches long. which appear
exactly like wax candles. as the botah-
Ical name implies. SO close IS thiS
resemblance that travellers. seeing Inc
tree for the first time, are liable TO he
temporarily puzzled as to whether the
candles of shops are made In factories
or crown on trees! The candle-llke
fruits are suspended from the branches
and bare stem by short. slender stalks,
dangling in the air. and readily give
the impression Of the chambers shop.
AS night fails and the numerous tre
flies move among the fruit this impress
sion is intensified. The inexperienced
traveller is not infrequently Informed
that the fircfiies perform the duty OF
lighting up these candles at night
when light is required by the denlzehs
of rhe jungle-London Strand.

Hypnctic Power In Animals.

An interesting instance of the hyp
motto power possessed by good many
animals is given by correspondent OF
the Glasgow Herald. One morning
outside Elgin blackbird was OBJ
served TO be standing by the road
side. paying no heed to the footsteps
of the passcrby. 1t was gazing fixed
" at four young weasels under the
hedge, which were approaching in O
semicircle. apparently to surround it.
Just then warming cry was heard
from behind. uttered presumably by
the parent weasel. and the young ones
disappeared in the hedge. The bird
still remained powerless and lmmova-
bic, and only after repeated urging did

Flower Gardens Of the Sea.

Tho sea has it's flower gardens. but
The blooms are not on plants as they
are on the land. 1t is the animals OF
the sea that make the gardens. the
corals Of the tropical waters partlcu-
larly. making a display of floral beauty
that fairly rivals the gorgeous colorlng
and delicate grace presented by lana
flowers. So closely do they resemble
r,,ant blooms that it is hard to believe
that they are wholly animal in organi-
cation. A naturalist says that among
the coral gardens. there are fishes or
curious forms and flashing colors dart
ing about. just as the birds and butter
flies dart about plant gardens on land.
