A very curious species of fish xvhicii

("larias. It lives in the mars-hes w hici;
arc formed durinp; the two months of
rainy season in that zone, ami after
that time it hides iu holes in the
"round, which the fish leaves nt nine
to search for its fond, consist iitfr main I v

Siluri mainly in the nmjilicr of barbs,
of which the newly-discovered has
eiirht, all of which are strongly d.-
eloped. This species difTers from the
African mudfish, Trosoptcras. in that it
does not close itself up in a capsule dur
ing the hot and dry season, like the
latter fish, which remains in a condi
tion of femi-catalepsy during summer.
The Clarias. T.azcra only hides during
the hottest hours of the day. and is o-.t
on dry land every nijrlit throughout
the year. St. Iiouis Cm lol ie- Democrat.

"Did it. ever occur lo you that little

he had not leen rcmliiio- f,r live min

thiiikinir of some wonderfully advan

"Well." said Mr. Williams, "it seems
to me that we oupdit to be calculating
tiMn his education.
"Oil. my." his wife cried, latiirhinir.
"Why. he isn't old enouo-h by three
years even to pa to the kintlerirarten."
"I didn't mean to send him at once."

Mrs. Williams started to say, but Wil

"Sometimes." he declared. "I am

"What is it?" she queried, helplessly.
"Tin- compound int-.-rest on the ab

"It is shavinp. p'oomily. "I would

"What are you poinp to do?
"I am poinp lo shave myself and
Tpply the money to a fund for little Vic

The next day Mr. Williams came
home in hiph elation. He had several

on the dininp-room table, little Victor,
as is the custom of sjieculative children

"Heavens and earth! TTelI cut his

he called. The baby had lieen howlinp
