THE CUTTLEFlSH.
Its Queer Ink Sac and Its Ability te
Change Its Color.

Its Queer Ink Sac and Its Ability &c
Change Its Color.
Sepla Is a peculiar animal substance
obtained from the ink bags or ink sacs
Of cuttlefsh.
The cuttlefish are a group of singu-
lar sea creatures allied to slugs, snails,
oysters and other so called shell fish"
The cuttlefish has a sort of shell be
meath the skin (sold under the name of
"cuttlebone'), a pair Of large eyes and
a horny beak. Like all molluscs, they
have no real limbs at all. but from
around the head there spring eight or
ten long tentacles, each armed with
numerous suckers.
By forcibly squirting out the sea wa.
ter which it has taken in the sepia
can shoot backward through the water
with great speed. The sepia Is inter
esting, too, as being able to change its
color In a measure so as to harmonic
with its surroundings. Just under the
topmost layer Of skin there are dis
tributed all over the surface Of the
pOuy uuluDSl VI ScIiS, SOuldiuiuS q
dark pigment When these cells are
expanded the surface Of the body be
comes darkly spotted, but as they are
contracted the creature looks paler.
Though best developed in the sepia
and its nearest allies, nearly every
member Of the cuttlefsh group pos
sesses an ink sac. The ink sac con-
tains the dark pigment secreted by a
special gland. When discovered or
pursued by an enemy the sepia dis
charges some of its ink through a
sort Of funnel or tube. The pigment
mixes with water very quickly and
forms a dark cloud of inky water. be-
yond which the sepia will dart into
safety.
Sepias are often caught in nets with
fish The fishermen, despising the
cuttles, throw them out upon the
beach, and then they may be seen ly-
ing In tiny pools Of dense black liquid
and continually oozing out more ink In
a vain attempt at concealment-Chi

BROKE IT GENTLY.
He Didn't Know Exactly What to Do.
So They Came to His Rescue.

A young author and critic, who has
come to be an authority upon a certain
modern phase of education, went a few
days ago to deliver his first lecture at
a girls school. He had lectured before.
but never at young ladies' semi
nary, and as two white frocked, curly
haired ushers led him out to the plat
form and he sat down beside the ma
tronly principal among the women who
made up the faculty and faced a sea of
girls faces he was young enough to
feel a bit of embarrassment himself.
1t was rather difficult at first. but once
the lecture was started things went all
right.
He finished what he had to say and
sat down. The audience and the ma
tronly principal and the women who
made up the faculty clapped their
hands enthusiastically. Then the ap
plause died down and silence settled
upon the lecture hall. The young man
sat on waiting for some one to say
something. dimly conscious that a
move Of one kind or another was ex
pected of him. But his lecture was
finished. he had said all he had to
say. There were no questions from
faculty or students A few Of the girls
began to fdget, but no one spoke.
The young man became unpleasantly
aware that he was expected to do
something and to do 1t at once, but he
did not know what to do. He reflected
miserably that he did not know the
etiquette Of girls school anyhow.
And then there was a signal from the
principal and a move In the audience,
and the prettier Of the two girl ushers
approached him. a little embarrassed.
little shy. determined to do her duty.
I'm so sorry. Mr.. b." she murmur.

Origin Of oxtail Soup.

During the reign of terror In Paris
In 1893 many of the nobility were re-
duced to starvation and beggary. The
abattoirs sent their hides fresh TO the
tanneries without removing the tails.
and in cleaning them the tails were
thrown away. One of the noble beg
gars asked for Il tail, and it was will
ingly given to him. He took it to his
lodging and made (what is now IA
nous the first dish of oxtail soup.
He told others of his good luck. and
they annoyed the tanners so much that
a price was put upon them.

really Disgusting abbreviation Of the
Latin 'dis-pendere,' to pay out. Sport
