PIanta Which Llx. In Ioa.

Plants do not freeze to death in
the early winter, but perish from
thirst. The process is simple. The
cold causes the withdrawal of the
water from the cells of the plants,
forming ice crystals outside the
cells. The frost, cooling and con-
tracing the surface, acts as a sort
Of pump, and as soon as the cell is
emptied of its life giving fluid the
plant dies. The truth of this the
DRY has been proved by numerous
careful experiments. Great varia,
ton was found in the amount of
cold necessary TO cause the death of
vegetation. Some plants dry out
quickly and are killed before the
freezing point is reached. Many
plants will survive zero weather,
and some die only at 20 degrees be-
low. Certain vegetable growths nev-
er freeze.

Flying fish swim in shoals vary
ing in number from dozen to q
hundred or more. They often
leave the water at once, darting
through the air in the same direc-
ton for 200 yards or more, and
then descend to the water quickly,
rising again and then renewing
their fight. Sometimes the dolphin
may be seen in rapid pursuit, taking
great leaps out Of the water and
gaining upon his prey, which take
shorter and shorter flights, yainly
trying to escape, until they sink eI-
hausted. Sometimes the larger sea
birds catch flying fish in the air.

COURTESY IN BUSINESS.
How . PIueI<y Salesman Tanned q Msr'
chant With a Crouch.

A salesman for carpet house
called on the proprietor of q big
store. This man had reputation
for eating statesmen alive. After
several unsuccessful attempts to see
his man the salesman decided to use
desperate means to get to him., He
knew that the man must buy d bill
of goods, for he knew what stock he
was carrying and knew that he
must lay in supply for the opening
of the season.
In the afternoon he called at the
store and deliberately walked into
the owners private Office and placed
card on his desk. The storekeeper
did not look up from his papers for
several minutes. Then he turned
savagely on the salesman and said:
"Who in Sam Hill let YOU in?
left orders to have you thrown out
if you came again"
With that he threw the card saw
ageiy in the wastcbasket. The sales
man drew another from his pocket
and placed it ON the desk where the
first had been. Without looking up
from his work the buyer threw that
in the wastebasket. The salesman
threw down two or three other
cards with the same result, and
finally, almost purple with rage, the
merchant turned on him:
"Well, well, well, what is it ?"
Il was just thinking" said the
salesman, "that if every man your
statesmen called on was such an in
fernal, ignorant, no account crouch
as you are what cussed few orders
they would book, and how quickly
you would go out of business. That's
all, sir; goodby."
Hold on there a minute" broke
in the crouch in much changed
tone. Il guess / owe you al
apology, You're right. Let's see
your line"
