COLORlNG FISHES.

Flowers can be artifcially colored, we know, with more or less success by chemical agency. Animals gener- ally escape coanterfeiting, with few exceptions. Tie latest in counter feiting IS the carp.
 In Sicily it is said that by intro- ducing into the water chalk, iron and a little peat, colors will be impart- ed to the carp. After treatment in a bath of these concomitants for a fortnight the fish is given another chemically prepared bath, into which IS introduced iron and tan. By in crossing or diminishing the quanti- ties the colors can be either accentu- atel or diminished The process is somewhat hazardous, but We learn from Paris contemporary that in tbe end an apparently new species of ornamental fish is produced. which commands a high price, London Globe.

The next day Maisie was pressing flowers after school when the new superintendent entered.

 But why?" asked Maisie.
 "You sec" he explained, q lost my temper yesterday, and when l left you went down to the school board rooms and told MT. Henryson, the president, that if you didn't resign would. Now, of course. you aren't going to resign. so my resignation is the one that is due. But I'm sorry not to have finished the year out"

A Necessary
 Love Affair

How Harry Reilly, just out of col lege, uuarrelled with his wealthy father because that self-willed old gentleman insisted that a position in Reilly's Unrivaled Soap factory was more to be desired than a literary career, and how young Reilly sudden ly found himself without pocket money and glad to accept the super intendentship of a country school, is a long and painful story. But certain it is that he did not enter into his new work in the best of humors, and as Maisie Ashford had red hair and a rather positive way of saying things, he relieved the monotony of his new life by teasing her.
 Maisie retailiated with spirit worthy of her auburn locks; she rebelled against the rules he made and stirred up the other teachers to do likewise; she studied the lives of the presidents and demanded a holiday on every pres idential birthday, and she wrote her reports in Latin. which Henry when at college had considered a dead lan- guage for dead people" and carefully neglected.
 Before many weeks there was open war between them. but the balance of power was in Harrys favor. He soon found that nothing annoyed Maisie more than his constant supervision of her work, so his polite knock sounded at her door all through the day, and he would sit in uncOmpromising st. lence while she heard her classes. She therefore set to work with char acteristic daring to stop his visits to her room.
 In furtherance of her plan she ap- peared at his desk one afternoon, looking very innocent and guileless. 'Mr. Reilly" she ventured timidly, when I was out with the botany class yesterday I thought that I saw a swamp lily, but it was too far out in the swamp for me to get. Still with help I might secure it for our

 When school was dismissed that afternoon the amazed teachers saw the new superintendent, armed with spade and bucket, accompanying 1 Maizie Ashford down the road toward the woods.
 They had reached the densest part of the swamp when Maizie stopped and pointed to a small island of tuft that rose from a sea of bog. There it is," she announced. Out you'll never be able to get it."
 Harry selected a plank from a near by fence, laid it from one patch of quivering sedge to another, and crept cautiously out upon It. After a close inspection of the tiny green plant that Maizie had pointed out he raised his head in disgust. "This isn't swamp lily-it's a common iris. You've rlenty of these already" Then he turned and saw that Maisie had quietly removed the plank.
 He stared at her in blank amaze 'ucnt and sho returned the look de- fantly. "Betore I put it back" she explained, trembling at her own temerity, "I want you to do mo fayor."
 "A favor?" cried the indignau; Harry, squirming uncomfortably on his tiny island. "WeW talk about iayors when you put back that plank"
 "But" she answered, sweetly, q shan't put it back until you do me the favor. All I want is for you to write me a letter asking me to marry you"

WHAT IS SLEEP?

What is sleep? According to the general definition, sleep is a condi- tion of unconsciousness where all the senses are at rest.
 Yet, though this may be true enough, there still remains the oucs- tion, 'What causes the actual lapse into inconsistencies ?" One theory sets out that sleep is due to blood- less condition of the brain, which IS accounted for by the drawing off of blood in order that the other fa- tigued organs of the body may be replenished.
 As to the amount of sleep required by individuals, there is the popular saying, "Five hours for the man. six for the woman and seven for the fool" It has been noticed, howev- CT, that a woman is better able to stand loss of sleep than a man.
