FISH THAT GLOW.

The , inhabitants c the oceaa
Tirj in many respects, according ta
ithe depth at vhich thej liTe, out
' most of all in their powers, of rision.
Fish, that liTe at very great depths
haTe either no eyes at all or enor
mously big one. There axe to
j method of getting about in the
gloomiest abysses by delicate or
gans of touch and by sight that
collects the few rays of light due to
phosphorescence or other acciden
tal sources.
The fish which live near the top
of the ocean have smaller eyes than
those say eighty fathoms down. One
hundred and twenty fathoms deep
er, where daylight disappears, the
eyes are bigger still. Beyond the
depth of 200 fathoms small eves
prevail, with long feelers to supple
ment them.
At this depth, in fact, sight
IS
practically useless. In the
frreatest
abysses the fish are usuallv blic
feeling their way about solely by
means of thfir sensitive bodies.
Some indeed show signs externally
of having once possessed eyes, but
that is all.
In others the oldest and most
confirmed abysmal species the eye
has disappeared altogether external
ly, though traces of it are still to be
recognized, embedded deeply in the
tissues of the head.
Many deep sea fish have a curious
system of hollows in the skull or
about the body which hold a kind
of phosphorescent slime. Others
have round or oval shining opales
cent spots, placed on the head or
along the body or tail.
All of them are abundantly sup
plied with nerves, and they are ap
parently organs for the production
of phosphorescent light. If so, such
a fish must swim about surrounded
by a faint glow, somewhat like that
thrown by luminous paint.
One scientist even suggests that
these fish may have the power of
directing their rays in any direc
tion, like a searchlight. Pearson's
Weekly.
A Devonahira J oka.
A few days ago a Devonshire
nhowman played a practical joke at
BarnBtaple. As the country folk
passed his tent they were interested
at seeing the following notice:
"Come and see the musical dog; ad
mission twopence." Naturally a
good many people paid their two
pences and entered the tent, which
was empty save for a big dog wear
ing a large metal collar, but no,
"musical dog" was visible. At last
impatience mastered curiosity, and
one of the audience asked the show
man when the performance was go
ing to begin. He seemed mucy sur
prised at the question and n.ade for
the tent door. Once there and in
easy reach of the peti ground, he
pointed to the dog in the tent, say
ing: "Why, thats the musical dog.
Can't you 'see the brass band
around his ieck ?"

Have you ever thought seriously
of the meaning of that blessing giv
en to the peacemakers? People
Are always expecting to get peace in
Jieaven. But you know whatever
peace they get there will be ready
made. Whatever making of peace
they can be blessed for must be on
the earth here; not the taking of
arms against, but the building of
est3 amid its "sea of troubles"
(like the halcyons).
Difficult enough, you think? Per
haps so, but I do not see that any
of us try. We complain of the want
of many things we want votes, wc
want liberty, we want amusement,
we want money. Which of us feels
or knows that he wants peace?

' Astonishing Information.
Two men wrote to the editor of a
correspondence column of a maga
zine, Mr. A. asking what to do for
teething babies and Mr. C. asking
how to get rid of grasshoppers. The
editor in answering got the names
mixed, so the man asking about ba
bies got the reply :
"If you want to get rid of the lit
tle pests cover them up with grass
and set fire to it."
And the one who asked about the
grasshoppers got the reply:
"If they are teething, give them
a warm bath and rub their gums
with boneset every day." Judge's
