Magic Of a sIphon.

When a pipe shaped like the invert-
ed letter U, in which the. arms are
eq.SaI length, is filled with water and
each pipe is put into separate ves-
sci full of water. 'the downward pull, :"
or weight Of the liquid in each Of the
two arms will balance the other, and,
II the water is at the same level in
the two vessels, it will remain at that
level in both vessels. But If the level
of the water in one vessel is lower
than the other, since the two vessels
are connected with a PIPE full of wa
ter, the water will run down from the
higher to tae lower. This. constitutes
what is called a siphon. A siphon it
self has no more magic about it than
a pencil has when it falls. or than any
other similar phenomenon in nature.
yet some of the siphons manifesto
tons seem to be not only magical, but
almost incredible.

The Ink Bao suuid.

When the squid is alarmed the ink
bag that connects with the siphon
opens its valve and cloud of the
black fluid is elected into the water,
where it becomes quickly diffused,
forming an effectual bar to pursuit.
The squids also have a faculty Of
changing their color with great rapid
ity, and when laboring under great
excitement, waves Of color seem to
pass over them in quick succession.
Their motions are extremely rapid;
darting along with the velocity of
light, now rushing into a school of
small fry tail first, turning quickly
to seize a victim and press it against
the birdlike beak where, by making
triangular nips, the vertebrae is gen
orally instantly severed. 1t is inter-
esting to note that the bite is always
in the. same place-the neck.-Charles
Frederick Holder.
