minute masses of that Eving jelly to

Now . the Hying parts of this di?ecir

tb* canals that evaywh^ permeate the

Look at a sponge fragment.. You per

^ fit hv?ag sponge this r^rpetual and ?
unceasing circulation of water proceeds.
This is the sole evidence the unassisted
sght receives of th? vi taBty of the sponge
colony., and -the importance of this cir
culation in aid?ng life in these depths to
be fairly carried oui cannot readily be
overestimated.
! -Let * now sea how this circulation is
maintained. ^Microscopically regarded,.
weaee here and there, m the sides of the
sponge passages, little air chambers or
. recesses, which remiid one of the pass
ing, places in a narrow canal. lining
the?6 chambers we see living sponge
units of a type different from the shape
less^ specks we noted to occur m ?the
. Tseshra of th? sponge substance itself.
; The units ?f tie recesses each consist of
a living particle, whose free extremity is
raised into a kind of collar,, from which"
projects a lashnke^fHsment known asa
Sagrflnm. This lash is. in constant
inovemeht. It waves to and frcTin the
water, and the collection of lashes we
see in any one chamber acts as a veri
table brush, which by its movement not
only sweeps water in the pores, but sends
it onward through the sponge, and in
An^fhm* sends it otiT&ysthe bigger Toles
or oscula.
: T&is constant <nrculation in the sponge
dischargee more than one important
fonction. For, as already. noted, it
serves the purpose of nutrition, in that
the particles on which spongelife is sup
ported are swept into the colony. Again,
the fresh currents of water carry with
them the oxygen gas which is a necessity
of sponge existence, as of human life;
while, thirdly, waste aiatters,ineritably

Surface Traffic in Big Citieev
Trnstworthy figures, recentry com
piled, show the mileage of street car
track in the United Spates and Canada
to be nearly 9,000. Horse railways oc
cupy 5,902, electric railways 1.753, dum
my lines 556 and cable lines 441. The
number of electric roads now in opera
tion is 264 against 44 cable roads. Some
Idea of the enormous proportions to
which the street railroad traffic has at
tained can bo gained from the fact thai
-in one city, St. Louis, the whole popula
tion is carried 110 times a year by the
street cars, and in the state of New York
the statistics of the surface railways for
the year ending September, 1889, show
that the whole population of the state
