SEAANEMONt ANO "ahnaulb.
An Odd Pair of Chums to Be Seen In the
Aquarium at Castle Garden.
The sea anemone is very sensitive. It
closes at a hostile or thoughtless touch,
not rapidly,' for it can't do anything
very rapidly, but as rapidly as it can,
curling its tentacles inward and cover
ing them over with its outer skin and
flattening it down upon the rock, gays
the New York Sun. But it is not dis
turbed by its friends. In one of the
smaller glass tanks at the city's aqua
rium at Castle Garden there are several
little sea anemones taken from spiles
and stones about the" battery. In the
same tank, almost within reach of these
anemones, are some common barnacles
little ones, half an inch or so in diam
eter. Lacking in beauty as the barna
cle may be, it is provided with a most
wonderful hand-like member, which it
throws up from its shell, with which It
sweeps the water for food, the minute
animalcules upon which it feeds. '
One of these barnacles is so close to
one of the little an emoncs that when
he flings his net ft almost or quite
touches the tips of the anemone's ten
tacles, which spread out from the top of
the anemone's trunk like the most del
icate and feathery of branches of the
tiniest little tree. But the anemone
doesn't close up a bit; here, down deep
in the tank, its branches wave in the
gentle agitated water, as. delicate as
they are, they might do in the gentlest
zephyrs on the land, and they wave
and wave as the barnacle throws ita
net. Perhaps the sea anemone has ita
own benefit in mind through all this,
for it is quite probable that the agita
tion of the water brings to it food that
it might not otherwise receive; but,
however that may be, the fact re
mains that the little anemone that
would close at the slightest touch of an
enemy is quite undisturbed by any
thing its friend and neighbor the bar
nacle might do.
ON THE NEED OF SLEEP.
Everyone Meeds a Goodly Amount af the
Ketreeher.
It is probable that the effect of night
on individuals differs greatly, and that
a process of natural selection is contin
ually at work, men who cannot bear
night-work avoiding it, while those to
whom it is recuperative and every
journalist knows such men throng
into the professions in which sitting up,
II not obligatory, is at least advan
tageous. There' are extraordinary dif
ferences of instinct in this respect, g
few men being literally unable to bear
night-work, while a few others delib
erately leave their whole work to be
done after the sun has disappeared.
The incapacity and the faculty are
connected in some way with the differ
ences in the power of sleeping, which
still remain among the perplexities of
physicians. Why can some men sleep
at will, and some "nervous" men, too,
while others, sometimes very "heavy"
men with apparently immovable
nerves, are tortured by insomnia?
Why, too, do some men seem to obtain
tuOicient rest with Ave hours' sleet.
while others require nine? Do some
men "sleep slow?" as Mr. Hmedley joc
ularly argued in one of his amusing
stories, or do they actually require
more sleep? We cannot answer the
question any more than the doctors
can, but we agree on one side of the
subject most heartily with the British
Medical Journal. The popular preju

LONDON'S HI'UiONIiY.
An Island for Wild Birds In Ona
Of the City Parka.
A Preserve That Is Much Frequented and
Highly Valued by Ornithologists
Some Peculiar Habits or the ,
Strange Birds.
Only a very small proportion, proba
bly, of the citizens of London are aware
that they possess what few of the peers
and landholders of the country can
boast, namely, an old and really fine
heronry. It is to be found in the
pleasance maintained for the enjoy
ment of the public in Wanstead park,
and the herons there are as much pro
tected as in the old days of falconry,
the difference being that now it is vol
untary, then it was a compulsory pro1
tection. Wanstead nark, savs the Lon
don News, is one of the most sylvan of
such open spaces, but it is seldom over
run with visitors, probably because it
is more than a mile from the nearest
railway, and there are no omnibuses to
connect the inclosure with either
Snaresbrook, Leytonstone or Forest
Gate stations. The bank holiday ex
cursionists go there in force, but at oth
er times there are few persons to be met
In a stroll round the beautifully-wooded
waters.
Xhe ornithologist, however, well
knows this preserve, and loves it. By
the aid of a pair of glasses and a fair
Stock of patience he may at one time or
another watch the movements of near
ly all our wild birds. Many people
complain bitterly of the regulation
which forbids the use of boats on the
lake, but it is a commendably wise re
striction, and, indeed, without it our
heronry would soon cease to exist, and
the nests of the other wild fowl on the
long wooded island' which is the secret
of Wanstead pork's attraction to the
birds would be rifled, and the natural
aviary destroyed in a season. Outside
the great ring of woods, entered at the
ruinous grotto, which has never been
restored since the fire of some ten years
ago, there are three ponds in which is
free fishing, and one of them has al
ways been known as the Heron pond.
Our heroury, however, is not there,
though the birds built there in former
generations. Tho herons are now
established at the further end of the
aforesaid island, in the part where the
forest trees are finest and oldest, and
the movements of the birds, and the
nests, best come under notice from the
i'cr-canopied path skirtin? the rltrht-
hand side. The herons sit close on
their great coarse nests, but the quiet
observer, ry the exercise of patience.
will now and then nee the birds going
and coming, and even sitting, as they
love to do, ou tho topmost branches
near the nest. They nro Interestingly
clumsy fi cures, and we in ponderous in
bulk, but they sre really very light by
comparison with their size, and perch
as easily sit a rook. The sportsman
shooting a heron for the first time is al
ways amazed at the ridleulotwly small
proportion of flesh to feathers; though
the out'ttret .'hi'd wln-rs give a mesHure

RUB THE OTHER EYE.
Advice of an Engineer Begardlng
the Removal of Cinders.
Nine persons out of every ten with a
cinder or any foreign substance in the
eye will instantly begin to rub the eye
with one hand while hunting for their
handkerchief with the other. They
may and sometimes do. remove the of
fending cinder, but more frequently
they rub until the eye becomes In
flamed, bind a handkerchief around
the head, and go to bed. This is all
wrong. The better way is not to rub
the eye with the cinder in it at all, but
rub the other eye as vigorously as you
like, according tc a writer in the Med
ical Summary, who relates the follow
ing experience:
A few years since I was riding on
the engine of a fast express. The en
gineer threw open the front window,
and I caught a cinder that gave me the
most excruciating pain. I began to
rub the eye with both hands. 'Let
your eye alone and rub the other eye'
(this from the engineer). I thought he
was chaffing me, and worked the
harder. 'I know you doctors think
you know It all, but If you will let that
eye alone and rub the other one, the
cinder will be out in two minutes' per
sisted the engineer. I bciran to rub
the other eye; soon I felt the cinder
down near the Inner eanthus. and
made ready to take it out 'Let it
alone and keep at the wel' eye,' shouted
the doctor pro tern. I did so for a min
ute longer, and looking In a small
glass he gave me found the offender on
my cheek. Since then I hnve tried it
many times, Bnd have advised tunny
others, and linve never known It to
fail in one instance, unlehs it was as
sharp as a piece of steel or Norm-thing
that cut into the K.ll sud required an
operation to remove It."

MODES OF
MARRIAGE.
Itrnnge Ceremonies Observed
Ainongt
Different Nationalities. 1
To eat maize pudding from the same
plate, or to eat in any way together, is
a widely distributed marriage cere
mony. In Brazil, says the Wasning
ton News, a couple may be married by
drinking brandy together; n Japan,
by so many cups of winel in Russia and
Scandinavia it used to be one cup for
both. ' The joining of hands among the
Romans and Hindoos is common to
many parts of the world. In Scotland
it is called "hand fastening," and
couples live together i after. To sit
together on a seat while receiving
friends, or to have the hands of each
t'ed together with grass, or to smear
with each others blood, or for the
woman to tie a cord of her own twist
ing around the naked waist of the
man, constitutes marriage in one part
or another. .
In Australia a woman carries fire to
her lover's hut, and makes a fire for
him. In America she lays a bundle of
rods at the door of his tent. A Loango
negress cooks two dishes for him in
his owu hut. In Croatia the bride
groom boxes the bride's ears, and in
UuhnIu the father formerly struck his
daughter gently with a new whip for
the lust tiiuA and then gave the
weapon to her husband. Down to the
present it lt a custom in Hungary for
the grtHim to ffivo the briileakiek after
the inarriii;;v ceremony, to make her
feel her subjection. Even with all
civilized people the servitude of the
bride iscleurlv iuiliented.

ACOlLaJTEIsY PURE
SOMETHING NEVVIN CHEMISTRY.
Beef Preserved and Kept lure by a Per
meation of O.-.one.
A writer In a Minneapolis newspaper
relates with great cii.-mstu.itiulitj
how a party of diners in a hotel wore
surprised and just a little horrified to
learn that the roast beef they hud iv.t.
en was twenty-ofte dayn old, and luiJ
been lying exposed to the sun for that
length cf time. They were reiiNsr.rod
when they were informed that the meat
hod been subjected to a permeation, of
ozone,-and by this means "preserved
as well as purified."
The diners will probably learn be
fore they gain the information from
this column, says the New York Mail
and express, that they encountered
something entirely new in chemical ac
tion, and if any one of them has the
courage to try it he can very readily
prove the assertion. Ozone Is one of
the principles of oxygen. Prof. Loew
says it is one of the greatest oxidyzers
known, or, at; ie once expressed it, , "a
sublimation of that portion of our at
mosphere which supports life, and at
the same time helps burn us up." Dr.
Julius Edmund Doetsch, who died
about ten years ago, claimed to have
been the inventor of an Ozone-produc
ing apparatus which would age any
dead or living thing brought in contact
With It. He took' two gallons of raw
spirits iresn from a still and by run
ning a current of pure ozone through it
caused the liquor to taste and smell
precisely ine same as the very same
quality of liquor with an actual age of
ten years. Dr. Doetsch believed that if
living animals lived in an atmosphere
of ozone they would become old men
and women at the age of ten and twelve
years. He proved that to treat animal
meat with the pure gas would have the
same effect on them as though they
had been exposed to the atmosphere
we now breathe for as many days aa
there were half minutes In the artifi
cial process.
Loew and Doetsch are authorities on
chemistry, the western writer may
be or he may not. At all events he ev
idently knows more about eating a din
ner than he does about "osone." He or
one of his friends can try the effect of
It by shutting himself up in a small
room and breathing the pure gas for
twenty minutes. If the Doetsch theory
Is correct, a little wrinkled old man,
bald headed and decrepit, will come
out to announce In piping treble that
he has aged forty years in twenty min
utes.

THE CZAR'S
LAST GIFT. 1
An
Instance
of the Thoughtfulness el
Alexander.
The late czar of Russia may have pur
sued a mistaken and somewhat crual
government policy, but in his domestic
relations he was all thoughtfulness and
affection, says a foreign exchange. It
is fold that last summer the czar and
empress visited a great shop in St.
Petersburg to buy jewels for their son'
future bride. The empress greatly ad
mired a beautiful bracelet, and told the
czar that she wished to possess It. On
their return ono of the serious attacks
to which he was subject came upon
him, and the empress forgot the brace
let. The czar died, and to the empress,
in the early days of her widowhood
came, November 14, the first birthday
she must pass alone. On her other
birthdays the czar had been wont to
place a bouquet in the morning room of
the empress. Inside the flowers was
always found some rich, rare gift,
chosen months beforehand. Tho
empress had avoided the room as too
full of painful memories, but this morn
ing, the morning of his wedding day,
.Nicholas requested his mother to go
there as a favor to him. The first thing
she saw was the bouquet in the usual
place, and insidu the flowers was a case,
fastened and sealed by the czar's own
hands. - It contained the bracelet. lie
had ordered it on the same day that the
empress saw it, and on his deathbed
had given instructions for the birthday
gift, bidding his son to be near to com
fort her when she received it.
CLOTHES MADE OF WOOD. J
One of tha Things Which the Tatar BFIU
Probably Ilrlng Forth. ,
Time was when references to a
"wooden overcout" wero understood as
the Irreverent equivalent of measuring
a man for a collln, but it would seem,
that suits of clothes made of wood may
soon be an accomplished fact.
The writer, says the Edinburgh
Scotsman, is Indebted to a merchant
of tho city of cloth Ieeds for a
glimpse of samples of a species of cloth,
and also of a sort of cotton, made
wholly out of wood fiber, these two
woven pieces having all the appear
anco of attractive articles of their own
kind, lloth thuso novel textile fabrics
are the result of prolonged experi
ments with pinmvood and spruce, which
have been ingeniously torn to pieces
In tho first instance and then bleached
by an elaborate chemical process.
After chemical treatment In many
ways tho wood becomes a soft, white
pulp, which Is run through perforated
plates, the resulting threads being
dried by a steaming process. These
thread can bo woven, and the me-
tcriul Is miaccptible of taking readily
any sort of tlye. Tho fabric can bo
made at an astonishingly cheap coat: It
looks well and has a certain amount of
strrigth (experiments in this connec
tion are now being carried out), and Its
appearance on the market, booner or
Ibter, la absolutely certain, especially
In the firrm of Imitation cotton.
