Its Ability to Change Its Own and the Water's Color. “1 was lying on a rock watching the movements of some land crabs which kept retreating from the water as the tide rose, when suddenly a crab dashed frantically from the water, and out after it galloped — there is no other word for it—a devilfish nearly two feet across,” writes an observer from Ava- lon, Cal. “The animal continued the chase a short distance, lifting its ten- tacles in the air In a sort of overhead motion; then, finding pursuit hopeless, It withdrew with a pecullarly unpleas- ant, writhing, gliding motion charae- teristic of these animals. Upon reach- ing the water it stationed itself just at the edge, so mimicking the color of the bottom that when I glanced away and looked suddenly back I could not at once distinguish it. This devilish had the appearance of a cat watching for mice, and when a crab was seen it would shoot out a long, attenuated tentacle and attempt to seize it. By carefully insinuating my way to the water's edge 1 quickly grasped the specimen and after a short struggle tore it from the rocks and secured It “At various times I had from three to five deviifishes in an Inclosure where I could watch them change color and test thelr strength. In confine- ment, If the tank bottom was dark, they assumed various tints, generally a dark reddish brown, but the largest one was nan tigerllke creature, about three feet across, with a ground of livid white covered with black or dark gray blotches, giving it a truly flendish appearance, especially as the eyes were conspicuous and appeared to emit lambent gleams.

It Is hu that the naturalists the marvelous insect which is rodinees and dies in the period single night on the banks of the Marne, of the Seine and of the Rhine. {t Is the ephemere of which Sirammenr. fam bas written and which is spoken of In Aristotle, The life of this Insect does not last beyond four or five hours. It dies to- ward 11 o'clock In the evening after taking the form of a butterfly about six hours after midday. It is true, how- ever, that before taking this form It has lived three years in that of a worm, which keeps always near the border of water in the holes which It makes In the mud, The change of this worm in the wa ter to an ephemere which filles is so sudden that one has not the time to see it. If one takes the worm in the water the hand cannot be taken away before the change is made unless by pressing the worm slightly In the region of the chest. By this means It can be taken from the water before the change takes place, The ephemere, after leaving the wa- ter, seeks a place where it can divest itself of a fine membrane or vell, which entirely covers it. This second change takes place in the alr. The ephemere assists itself with the point of its little nails as firmly as it can. It makes a movement similar to that of a shiver; then the skin on the middle of the back breaks apart, the wings slip out of thelr sheath, as we sometimes take off our gloves by turn. ing them inside out. After this strip ping the ephemere beging to fly. Some- times it holds itself straight up on the surface of the water on the end of its tall, flapping its wings one against the other. It takes no nourishment in the five or six hours which are the limit of its life. It seems to have been formed but to multiply, for it does not leave its state of a worm until it is ready to deposit its eggs, and it dies as soon as they are deposited, In three days’ time one sees appear and die all species of ephemere, They last sometimes until the fifth day, for the reason that some malady has af- fected some of them and prevents them from changing at the same time as the others.

It was fascinating to observe the range this water gun had and how by seeming intuition the devilfish could direct it at my hand as I slowly moved it about while attempting to attract the ani mal's attention In an opposite diree- tion." When Hoops Began. When were hoops “in” for the first time? Accord'ng to Strutt, “trundling the hoop Is a pastime of uncertain or- igin, but much in fashion at present” (1801). Dr. Murray's dictionary, incl- dentally remarking that the original boop affected by boys was a barrel boop, gives no English reference to it sarller than 1702. But the hoop was well known to ancient Greek and Ro- man boys, who called It a “trochus” (wheel). Their hoops were made of bronze, and representations of them on gems show that they were driven by a little hook with a wooden handle, very like the modern boy's hoop stick. This was called by the Greeks “elater” (driver) and by the Romans “clavis" (key). Sometimes the anclent hoop had bells gttached to It, and modern Lon- don may be glad to be spared at least that exasperation.—London Chronicle. Unfortanate Omission, One of the most singular instances of punishment for an oversight was that shown by the commitment of an alma- pac maker to the Bastille in 1717. It was made out by order of the Duke of Orleans, regent during the minority of louis V. of France, and read as fol- lows: “Laurence d'Henry, for disre- pect to King George 1. in not mention- ing him In his almanac as king of Great Britain” How long this un- lucky almanac maker remained in pris- on is unknown. The register of the Bastille, examined at the time of the revolution, failed to throw any light on the subject. Beards and Battles. Bhaggy locks and patriarchal beards have proved highly inconvenient things on the battlefield. Does not history record that Alexander ordered the Macedonians to be shaved lest thelr beards should give a handle to thelr enemies? Peter the Great was nlso a friend of the barbers, for he not only ordered all ranks to be shaven, but caused officers to go about to cut off the beards of offenders by force, His Second.
