JELLYFISH.
One of the Peculiar Forms of the An?mal
Life of the Sea.
Upon the sand at the water's
edge there lies a particle of jellylike
substance, inconspicuous and
almost invisible. But in early spring
one moves in such a world of wonders,
the merest atoms of tissue
are seen to be informed with such
varied and vivid life, that I lift the
narticlc carcfullv unon a shell and
i # v r
drop it into a jar of water to see
a strange unfoldment, a beautiful
transformation. The central mass
expands into a double chambered
bell of pure and transparent vesture,
and these gossamer globes be?in
to contract with regular rhythmic
motion, lifting the creature upward
and softly urging it forward
by their quickly repeated pulsations,
while from below four grad
ually lengthening tentacles trail
backward with graceful undulations.
Phis beautiful medusa, the Sarsia
mirabilis, is the earliest of our jellyBshes
to appear in spring. By its
pleasing and graceful form, by its
eager and tireless movements, it
seems to visit our shores at this season
almost like an Ariel of the deep,
voiceless, it is true^ but throbbing
with its message tnat the ocean'6
submerged shores and its dajk abyssal
chasms are all alike awakening
to the spirit that transforms the
jpper world, une is ar a loss 10
jomprehend these creatures, so different
in form from any that we are
vont to associate with animal life,
for, although without a head, they
ire yet capable of sensing the light
ind auditory vibrations. Without
lands, arms or antennae, thejr are
ret responsive to tactile impressions
ind, although of such fragile and
foseamer texture, are yet the vehi:le
of vivid and intensive life. The
novements of the body and the
contained impulses that prompt
hem seem one and indivisible. The
lesires of its being seem themselves
o urge it forward. Like a thought
t seems momentarily embodied or
in emotion precipitated into the
risible as it impulsively mounts upvard
in eager quest or in apparent
lisannointment relaxes its efforts
If
ind subsides with all its drifting
ippendagea a-strearo, only after a
noment to palpitate again with rereshe<!
intention and slowly pulse
>n its softly insistent way.?H. J.
Shann n in Harper's Magazine.
Tho Scot's Gratituds.
An old fanner coming home from
he Paisley market lost his pocketx>ok,
containing a considerable sum
>f money, in the station. He looked
for it, but could not find it, and
lad given up all hopes when a news>oy
said to nim: "Here, mon. A've
tan' yer book."
The guidman was overflowing
rith latitude and expressed himlelf
thus: 'Thank ye, ma lad. If
re happen tae be passin' oor farmlouse,
step in, an' A'll gie ye a guid
Irink o* soor milk."?Dundee Adrertiser.
Saved His Molasses.
A traveler came along to the gate
)f a humble cabin in a town in Altbama
just as an old negro handed
i couple of jugs to his son, who was
ibout ten years of age, and said,
'Xow, Julius, yo' gwan down to de
grocery an' git a quart o' treacle in
>ne ob dem jugs an' hurry back."
>Yhen the boy had gone the traveler
aid to the father:
"You didn't tell him to get anyhing
in the other jug. Is he going
0 leave it at the grocery?"
"Xo, sah; gwan to bring it right
jack home," he replied.
"But why send two jugs to get a
|nart of treacle?"
"It's jes' dis way, sah: If he has
1 jug in each hand, he can't go dip>in'
his finger in the treacle an' eatn'
it as he comes along."?Detroit

Jeff. Davis* Birthday.
The 100th anniversary of the
urthday of President Jefferson l)avs
will occur en Jnne 3, 1908. The
Tonfederate veterans, association and
rarious other Memorial associations
rnve suggested that this day be oberved
throughout the South to teach
mportant lessons connected with
he work and life of this great citi;en.
It is a good opportunity to
mpress important lessons in conlection
with the history of the
Southern Confederacy and period
mmediately preceding it. A great
aiany schools will close before that
date, so I suggest that you urge your
teachers to take such time, as may
3uit best for each school, for some
important lessons and exercises of
this kind.
Sincerely yours,
