octopus Not Dangerous.

The octopus has the power Of
changing color more highly developed
than any other animal. He could ac-
commodate himself to the vivid back
ground of a tartan. plaid without a
tremor. Indeed, this is his main line
of defense. He clings mechanically
with his many suckers to whatever he
may touch, but tight grip upon the
slight construction between his head
and little round body invariably
causes him to relax his hold. To see
the impunity with which any French
fisher girl will handle an octopus
might dispel the fears Of the most
nervous bather that ever mistook an
overgrown jelly fish for the eight
armed terror of the deep.

rebellion was stamped out with much
blOOdshed. Emperor Hadrian, in re-
building Jerusalem, changed its name
to Aelia Capitolina and decreed that
no Jew should dwell in it. Never
since that day has Jerusalem been a
Jewish city or Palestine Il Jewish
land.
Ascalon's history was naturally
troublous in times like these. In 14SU
B. c., say the Tel-el-Amarna tablets,
the native chiefs and Dagon-worship-
ers who ruled the city were paying
tribute to the Pharaoh of Egypt. The
place was captured successfully by the
great Rameses H., and by King AS
surbanipal of Assyria.
1t later became one of the five
towns of the Philistine confederacy.
"Tell it not in Gath. publish it not
in the streets of Ashkelon; lest the
daughters of the Philistines rejoice"
is written in II Samuel l 20. 1t came
into the hands of the tribe of Judah,
but it remained an enemy of the
Hebrews to the last.
Ascalon long belonged to the
Romans. In the Seventh century it
came into possession of the Saracens.
In 1899 was fought the great battle
on the plains of Ascalon in whlch
the Crusaders under Godfrey de Bouil-
Ion we're victorious. The city was
taken and retaken during the wars oil
the Crusaders.
The end of Ascalon came in 12'o'
when it was destroyed by the Sultan
Bibars. 1t was then that its harbor
was filled in 1t was then that IL pe-
came desolation.
