Flowers on Icebergs.

Flowers blooming on icebergs would certainly be rare sight, but travellers In the northern portions of the Pacific and sometimes in the north Atlantic have witnessed this strange but very beautiful spectacle. It appears that some animals carry on their feet d growth of moss. which is deposited on the ice while 1t is attached to the main land in polar regions. In time this de- cays and forms shallow soil, in which the seed,pf buttercups and dandelions often find lodging, borne by currents of wind that doubtless caught them up in some southern cline. These take root and bloom when the great gleam- Ing iceberg floats out to sea and Is car ried southward, where the soft winds melt the surface and give the plants the moisture they need.

Girls With Boys, Names.

Girls with boys names and boys with girls have received them In many instances no doubt by accident It was so in the case Of George Anne Bellamy, the famous eighteenth cen tury actress. who played Juliet to Gar rick's Romeo. Born on St. George day. she was to be called Georgiana, but somebody's blunder at the time of her christening split this into George Anne. The "corn law rhimer." Ebenezer FL liott, had daughter named Noah, whose passport Is said to have given her much trouble abroad. But here, as in the case of other girl Noahs, it was only other peoples Biblical ignorance that was at fault. for turn to Num- bers xxXvi, II, and you will find that Mahlah, Tirzah. Hoglah, Milcah and Noah were the daughters of Zelophe- had.-London Graphic

Soasickness.

Seasickness comes on oceans, lakes and some rivers. Not every one. how ever. who travels upon these bodies of water can acquire 1t. as 1t appears to come only to those who have a gift for it. It has one great merit not con- mon to all gifts. as It may be acquired without previous practice. Those who arc skillful do not have to be taught. Like inspiration and the wonderful one hoss shay, it comes to them "all at once and nothing first"
 Various cures have been devised for seasickness. One of them is publicity. If you can keep on deck where you will be seen by all men and a few fishes that may be staring at you. 1t Is said to be a great help. The best cure, however. is carefully to remove the water from underneath the particular vessel In which you happen to be pass Ing away. If enough water can be re- moved the seasickness will be invari- ably cured.
 Seasickness Is the only thing you get from the steamship company that you don't pay for.-Life.

A statement issued by the war office at Nish said that the Austrsuns failed in nn effort to force the pass which commands the approach of the Morava valley
 Fighting Of the most desperate na- ture continued. with heavy casualties on both sides. the statement said.
 The Servian war office declared two Austrian divisions had ,.lso failed to force the Kovatsch deti,e after an all day fight on the banks the Drina river.
 The desperate fighting going on in the Morava valley to the south of Bel grade is likely to culminate Tn the first big and decisive 5stt!e Of rhe war at Kragouvevatz. -..-
 Two Servian victories in the pre- liminary struggle between Austria and Servia were. reported by the Seryian legation in London. They are regard ed by Servian strategists as important because they indicate the failure of ttempts on the part of Austria to cross the Servian border.
 The Servian forces not only resisted successfully again. but forced the Aus trians to fall back to their position on the north bank of the river.
 The Paris Matin prints dispatch from Nish, Servia, declaring that the Serbs defeated the Austrians with heavy loss ill battle near Semendria.
 Ten thousand Austrian infantrymen, supported by heavy artillery, advanced against the Servian position. but were repulsed, according to the dispatch, leaving many dead and wounded on the field.

Spiders Are Not Insects.

The spider is not an insect. though probably nine people out of ten would class 1t under this term. With SCOT pions and mites. spiders form Il class in the animal kingdom known aS aruch- nida. This name is derived from mythical parsonage called Arachne. the daughter of purple dyer of Lydia. who was fabled to have challenged Minerva to Il trial of skill in spinning. So indignant was the goddess at thiS act of bo'GaeSs that she forthwith transformed the hapless challenger into n spider, presumably in order that she might have the best possible Op- portunity of practicing the art on which she prided herself so much. Spiders differ from insects in five main particulars. Their eyes are simple in- stead of compound. they have eight legs in place of six. they do not pass through the metamorphoses which are characteristic of insects. they have no antennae. and their breathing is accom-. plished by means of organs which com bine the functions of lungs and gilS
 instead of by tubes pervading their bodies. These points of distinction are sufficient to determine the fact that it Is impossible to class spiders us insects.
