Snonoe as an Animal.

Nothing is less like living crea
ture than the common bath sponge.
yet the fact remains that sponges do
form 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 a piece of
rock, and from that time it 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 ocea,
some clinging to rocks. others '
mud.

ADDS TO THE LENGTH OF LIFE
Nothing Better Than Pedestrian Ex.
ercIse, Especially to Those Who
Have Passed Beyond Youth.

Some of the most noted of the old
men of New York. successful in bust
ness. the professions and public at.
fairs. have formed walking club for
the purpose of making their pursuit
Of still greater length of days and
still better health as agreeable as 1t
is sensible. They intend to take long
walks together and, no doubt. to make
their pedestrian experiences the sub
1ect Of entertaining discussion and .
store Of memories held in common.
This is an example which might we'll
be followed In every city of the United
States. In the era Of motor vehicles
there is danger that walking will be
increasingly neglected. especially by
men and women advanced in years,
who often need 1t most. There is q
constant temptation to forget that
riding in the open air, fine as it is in
many ways, can never do for the body
what walking does.

AutocratIe EnaIIshman.

One of the reason why English II
expected to become a world wide Ian
guage is that English people refuse to
learn another. For instance, at Mus
cat, at the entrance to the Persian gulf.
there lived for many years an English
man, supposed to be the only, or al
most the only, British resident on the
1900 miles Of Arabian coast line from
Alden to Koweit. It would seem that
he could hardly have escaped knowing
Arabic. Yet he confessed that he
could not speak a dozen words Of that
language. But how do you carry on
your trader" some one asked. "Oh,"
he replied. "the beggars have got to
learn English"

CHAPTER XIV.
Under Arrest.

One by one the barrack lights went
out as the tired troopers sought their
beds. Hamlin extinguished his also,
and only one remained burning, left
for emergency near the door, which
flung a faint glow over the big room.
But the Sergeant's reflections kept
him awake, as he sat on the foot Of
his bed, and stared out of the open
window into the darkness. There was
little upon which to focus his eyes,
few yellow CLEANS along officers row,
where callers still fingered, and the
glow of fire in front of the distant
guard-house, revealing occasionally
the black silhouette of a passing senti-
mel. Few noises broke the silence, ex-
cept the strains of some distant mu-
sical instrument, and voice far away
saying goodnight. Once he awoke
from revery to listen to the call of
the guards, as it echoed from post to
post,ceasing with "All we'll, Number
Nine," far out beyond the stables.
The familiar sound served to recall
him to the reality of his position
What was the use? What business
had he to dream? For months now
he had kept that girls face before
him, in memory Of few hours Of hap
piness when he had looked into her
dark eyes and heard her pleasant
speech. Yet from the first he had

become anything. Even If he cleared
his past record and stepped out of the
ranks into his old social position, the
chances were she would never over.

meant little, nor her passing interest

natural result Of his having saved her

writes:
II had drank coffee for about twenty
years, and finally had what the doctor
called. coffee heart was nervous

mental or physical strength left, had
kidney trouble and constipation.
"The first noticeable benefit derived
from the change from coffee to Postum
was the natural action of the kidneys
and bowels. In two weeks my heart
action was greatly improved and my
nerves steady.
Then became less respondent, and
the desire to be active again showed
proof Of renewed physical and mental
strength.
II am steadily gaining in physical
strength and brain power. formerly

on account Of coffee, but since using
Postum am doing hard mental labor
