world. and very effective memorial
to the name and fame of the father

Snakes Fond Of Music.

Science has recently been studying
the question as to whether or not
snakes have. an appreciation Of music.
This applies particularly TO the cobra,
which responds to the piping of a
gourd instrument played by the East
India falxir with rhythmic movement
suggesting dance. The conclusion
seems to be that it answers to the
musical notes much in the same way
as dog does-that is to say. through
a special or nervous sympathy. When
the whistles blow at noon in the Bronz
ZOO the wolves set up great howl
ing in concert. Whether or not they
enjoy this sort of music is disputed
though probably they do, for some
dogs undoubtedly take pleasure in har:
monious strains and will run block
to sit in front of a hand organ and
sing while other dogs unquestion-
ably suffer from certain kinds of
music, and express their pain in lugu-
brious bowls.

NEW LIGHT ON OLD PRovERB
Showing That the Early Bird is Not
Always the One That Gets the
Most Worms.

Once there were two birds. One was
an early bird. and the other was a
lazy sort of bird which never got out
much before eight o'clock in the
morning.
The early bird caught a worm. The
early proyerb-maker happened to be
there at the time, and made note
of It.
Now. this worm that had been
caught by this early bird had wife
and ten children. When the worm
left home that morning his ten chill
dren were just getting up and his wife
was preparing breakfast
No doubt this worm had gone out
for his morning walk to work up an
appetite for breakfast. but such are
the uncertainties OF life-he never re-
turned. The family of worms waited
until about eight o'clock, and then.
highly alarmed. started out to look for
Papa Worm.
At this time the bird that was a
lazy sort of bird was just getting out
to look for a bite of something to
eat. He saw the family of worms
and had fine breakfast.
Moral: It's not always the bird that
gets into the proverb that gets the
most worms.-Lippincott

sponae as an Animal.

Nothing is less like living crea-
ture than the common bath sponge.
yet the fact remains that sponges do
form a very important species of the
animal kingdom. eating their food
and living their lives much as any
other animal would do.
The actual existence of a sponge
commences with the separation from
the parent of tiny particle. This
particle, whirling through space. event.
ually attaches itself to piece OF
rock and from that time 1t seeks its
own livelihood.
At the very commencement, with
some species of the sponge family,
the baby sponges feed upon yolk cells,
In which are stored food supplies. By
and-by, as the youngster develops, the
currents in the water sweep into a
kind of bag the minute PARTICLES of
food required, and the same currents
carry of undigested matter.
There are many varieties of sponges
found at different levels OF the ocean,
some clinging to rocks, others to
mud.

Rubber plant on for umbrelIas.

A vegetable oil used in making pa
per umbrellas in Japan Is pressed out
of the seeds of the rubber plant. This
oil is made in the various islands
famed for oil and seeds from these
plants. Sandy ground is favored for
the cultivation of the plant, and the
oil is extracted from the seeds by
presses. The yield of seeds is esti-
mated at 20 bushels per acre. The an
nual production throughout Japan
amounts to 100000 bushels, from
which over a gallon of oil per bushel
is extracted The oil before it is
used is boiled and then cooled until 1t
can be applied by hand to umbrellas
with piece Of cloth or waste. No
machinery or tools are used in apply
ing the oil. When the oiling is COM
plete the umbrellas are exposed in
the sun for about five hours. This oil
is also used in making the Japanese
lanterns, artificial leather, printing
ink, laquer, varnishes, oil paper. and
paints

MAKE SOMETHING OF LIFE
Not Without Reason Should Any Pass
Through the Joys and Troubles
OF the World.

Thousands of men breathe, move
and live; pass off the stage OF life,
and are heard OF no more. Why?
They did not a particle of good In
the world; and none were blest by
them, none could point to them as the
instrument Of their redemption; not
a line they wrote. not word they
spoke, could be recalled. and so they
perished-their light went out In
darkness and they were not remem-
bered more than the insects of yes
terday. Will you thus live and die,
o man immortal? Live for something.
Do good and leave behind you mon
ument of virtue that the storms OF
time can never destroy. Write your
name by kindness. love and mercy on
the hearts of the thousands you come
in contact with year by year, and
you will never be forgotten. No, your
name, your deeds will be- as legible ON
the hearts you leave behind as the
stars on the brow of evening. Good
deeds will shine as bright on the earth
as the stars of heaven.-Thomas Chal-
mers.

FISH THAT FELL UPWARD
Brilliant colors Have Been Noted At
n Depth Of Three Thou
sand Feet.

According to Sir John Murray, ono
of the greatest authorities on ocean
ography. the bottom of the sea is a
desert OF pitch black darkness, pene.
trating cold and eternal silence, says
the London Evening Standard Worms,
sea puddings and coral polyps slug
gishly crawl or sway in the almost
currentless depths, and only two spe-
cies of fish, both OF them small with
much head and little body, have been
found deeper than a mile and quar-
ter down.
The range of fishes In the sea Is as
though 1t were divided into layers, one
above the other and no fish can live
above or below his layer. Thus many
of the deeper fish-three-quarters of
a mile below the surface--have been
found floating at the top; they had
swallowed fish as large or larger
than themselves and its buoyancy had
lifted them out of the strata to which
they were accustomed
The physiology of bottom fish is al
most impossible to know, because they
are built to resist tremendous pres.
sure of water, and when this pressure
is released-as when they are brought
to the surface In net-sometimes the
fish has burst: the organs are crushed
beyond reconstruction.
Similarly II fish of higher strata
attacks a bottom fish in the neutral
zone where both can live, and--as
sometimes happens-his teeth become
entangled so that he cannot let go
and he is dragged into deeper water
he strangles instantly, for his
breathing arrangements are of no use
to him under the pressure of water In
the lower strata OF the sea. AS rule,
however, the fish OF the various depths
rarely feed on those above or below
them.
There have been brought to light
an astonishing number Of forms OF
fish, and. especially of prawns of a
brilliant red color, living in the ocean
at depth of 5000 feet. But, aston
ishing as it may seem, there brilliant
ly colored fish and prawns, instead OF
being conspicuous In the water at that
depth. are almost invisible when al
most any other color could be easily
seen.

excess of courtesy.
Beautiful. very beautiful" he said
and Nelly was more astounded than
ever. He described wonderful cir,
Gle on one foot. and then. with a
flourish. made a series of quick
whirls.
Nelly gasped and flushed at tho
audacity of the man.. Plainly he had
written on the ice with wonderful
skill name.
1t was. Nelly"
"How dare you'll" flashed forth the
little lady, but, with delighted
laugh the expert skater was off on
long glide, and farther away Nelly
saw him once more write that name
on the CLASSY surface of the ice.
ooh, dear! am the most friendlesa
and forlorn being in the world"
burst forth Nelly. Everybody ia
cruel to me-"
The expert skater was maneuverins
between the spot where Nelly was
and the junction of the rivers. Nelly
was really frightened at the imperti
merit, airy fellow, as she judged him.
She got out of his way by skating on,
Finally she espied cutoff leading to
the other river branch. 1t had steep
clay sides, and Nelly started along it,
-swish-crack, crack! Nelly
uttered a sharp, sudden cry of dis
may. The frail rubber ice was bend
ing under her weight. Then one foot
went through 1t to the ankle. She
darted for shore. but though at every
step her feet broke through, she gain
ed the bank.
"A driftwood log was there, and
I, Nelly sat down on it, breathless and
with wet feet. All her sudden tenn.

In regaining the main river she might
incur no actual danger, but her feet
might sink in deeper.

hadn't run away. Oh, dear!" and
Nelly burst out crying.
She looked up at the sound of clane
ing skate blades and cracking icf
Her lover was coming towards he,
She could read the anxiety and solici
