The Week Poem
THE CHAMBERED NAUTILUS.

By Oliver Wendell Holmes.
This is the ship of pearl, which, poets
feign.
Sails the unshadowed main
The venturous bark that filings
on the sweet summer wind its purple
wings
In CULTS enchanted. where the siren sings,
And coral reefs lie bare,
Where the cold sea maids rise TO sun
their streaming hair.
Its webs Of living gauze no more unfurl
Wrecked is the ship of PEARL
And every chambered cell
Where its dim dreaming life was wont
to dwell,
As the frail tenant shaped his growing
shell.
Before thee lies revealed.
Its irised ceiling rent its sunless crypt
unsealed,
Year after year behold the silent toll
That spread his lustrous coil;
Still. as the spiral grew.
He left the past years dwelling for the
new,
Stole with soft step it's shining archway
through,
Built up its idle door,
Stretched in his last-found home. and
knew the old no more.
Thanks for the heavenly message brought
by thee.
Child OF the wandering sea,
Cast from her lap forlorn!
From thy dead lips a clearer note is born
Than ever Triton blew from wreathed
horn,
While on mine ear II rings,
Through The deep caves OF thought |
hear voice that sings.
Build thee more stately mansions, o, my
soul.
As the swift seasons roll
Leave thy low-vaulted past.
let zach new temple, nobler than the last
Shut thee from heaven with a dome more
vast.
Till thou at length art free.

BRAVE PLANTS
BY ROYAL DINON.


Most plants have an Odor. and these
odors are necessary to attract insects.
The plant needs the insect To distribute
it's pollen 10 other plants. Plants with
brilliant colors. with odors, or with hon
eyed secretions have these attractions for
the purpose of enticing insects. which UNI
{, nsciously carry the pollen ~ the same
time. and thus fcrtilZe the flower, as |
described a few weeks ago. This is neces-
sary. because some plants often grow long
distances from others of their kind. and
without the aid of insects to carry the
pollen to them they would produce no
seeds and could not multiply or repro
ducc themselves.
There are as many kinds OF odors as
there are plants-somc pleasant and 9TH
crs unpleasant Who does not remember
the odor of vioets, tho various odors of
roses, lilacs. honeysuckles. verbenas. jas
samnes, heliotropc and the wide-awake
carnation? What delightful odor the
night blooming cereus has, II is an un-
canny. strange plant. with petals that
seem to be moulded in wax. and yet its
odor fills the air with an almost sicken-
Ing fragrance.
One of tho early spring flowers is the
skunk cabbage. which. although il has
AN ugly name and an unpleasant odor. is
nevertheless useful to the bees. which feed
on its blossoms before the later flowers
appear. II got its name no doubt because
its odor resembled somewhat the odor Of
the little animal We know as the skunk.
However, this plant has often been called
the hermit OF the forest and this is doubt
less a prettier name. Isn't IL?
