The Word That Is Seen Most Frequent* ly In Germany. "Germany is the land of limitations/' writes Jerome Hart in the Argonaut. "The word you see there most frequently is 'verboten'?'forbidden.' When you approach a railway station you see gigantic 'verbotens' stuck all over the station before you see anything else. It is forbidden to go down a certain staircase. It is forbidden to go up a certain other one. It is forbidden to get out of the railway carriage on the side farthest from the platform. It is forbidden to get on or off of the railway carriage while it is in motion. It is forbidden to get out at all until you have given up your ausgang coupon and are discharged free. It is forbidden to stick your head out of the window. It is forbidden to throw bottles out of the window. It is forbidden to break the window. It is forbidden to sound the danger signal unless your life is in peril. "When you have complied with all the regulations, been ticketed, punched, counted and have gone through the 'ausgang' you are apt to find a big sign, 'Durchgang Verboten'?'no thoroughfare'?owing to repairs. But if you try to go back through the 'ausgang,' whence you have just emerged, you will find that it is 'verboten.' You must go back into the station through some other 'eingang' and then go out again through some other 'ausgang.' All through the German speaking parts of Switzerland you find the German 'verboten' also prevails in railway stations and elsewhere. "One day I heard an American woman in a restaurant carriage say to her husband as the train stopped, 'I wonder what the name of this station is?' 'Don't you see it there?' replied the husband. ' "Guterschuppen"?that's the name of the station.' 'Is it, indeed?' placidly replied the wife. 'I've seen that same name on the last six stations we have passed, and I don't believe that even in Germany they would call six successive stations by the same name.' A well meaning German professor here leaned across the aisle and informed the lady that 'guter" mArtnl r*V% f O O/-] ' suiupj^rii incaut iicigin onvu* Probably the professor was unmarried. After that a silence fell between the married pair." Changing Eyas. Among the extraordinary changes bv which during growth the form or position of important organs is ;iffected one of the hiost curious occurs in flat fish?halibut, turbot, plaice, soles and all fish which swim on the side. When hatched and for some time afterward these fish swim in the normal way and have the eyes in the usual places, one on each side. But as they grow and live on the bottom of the water they swim in the horizontal position which they assume during rest, and the eye on the lower side gradually moves around to the side turned to the lierht.

Dissolve ordinary soda in a glass of water, putting in as much soda as the water will take up. Then tie a common bean to a string and let it hang in the water so that that it will be entirely submerged. The best way to do this is to tie the other end of the string to a piece of wire or something similar that can be laid across the top of the tumbler. Before long a curious thing will happen to the bean. It begins to cover itself with tiny spines until at last it looks like a tiny porcupine. The explanation is simple. The bean is very porous and soaks up a lot of water, but the soda in the water cannot enter the bean, and it >t;:y . nti.-.de. -A tunny thing can be sbcwm by hanging some object that is not porous alongside of the bean, such as a piece of glass. Long after the bean has < appeared under its accumulation of soda crystals the bit of glass will remain the same as it was. a* -- N> : ? 16369696969&9t? S To the Farmers 8 Lake City To (i We, Geo.
