PLANTS EAT INSECTS. V anas' Fly-Trap Discriminates lletwsea Animal ami Oiknr Matter. A few Inserting eating plants have been gathered from the swamp Inuds of North Carolina and California, and others have boon sent from India, Aus tralia and Madagascar. Perhaps tho best known of the group Is Venus' Fly Trap. Tlie leaves vary from one to six Inches long, and nt the extremities are placed two blades or claspers. On the Inner walls of these claspers there are six Irritable hairs, any one of which receiving the slightest touch from an Insect la sufnclent to bring the two blades together with such rapidity as to preclude any possibility of the fly vscaplnf. A correct idea of how the trap closes on Its victim may be ob tained by hriuglnx the two hands rap idly together, the fingers of one being firmly pressed between thoae of the other. This plant nattily discriminates between animal and other matter; this. If a small stone or piece of wood be dropped Into the trap H will instantly close, but as soon as It has found out its 'mistake, and It only takes a few minutes, it begins to unfold Its trap, and the piece of woqd or atone fulls out. On the other hand, should a piece of beef or a blue bottle fly be placed In It, It will remain firmly closed until every piece of organic matter Is ab sorbed through the leaf. It will then unfold itself, and is ready for another meal. THE DAILY STRICT TUTELAGE. rtelallons of Apprentice and Mastrr In the Middle Age. Apprenticeship was an Important In stitution In Franco In the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, nnd wnn reg ulated with the utmost care, as will be een by the following account of "An Idler In Old France." By the rules of the book the mnatcr was held greatly responsible for his apprentice: and un der a wise and kindly roof, the Ind who wa8 learning to be a mnster workman and a ruler In his little world might lead a happy nnd profitable life. Often ho did so, and when the day came that he might claim his freedom, he chose to remain the paid servant, friend nnd fellow-worker of te master who had flickered him from boyhood and taught him all his craft, rather than to seek a fortune less assured else were. Dur ing (he years of his apprenticeship the patron or master was to feed, clothe and shelter him. in the homely word ing of the clockmaker's rule, to cher ish him "beneath his roof, at Is boad nhd by his hearth " Nay. It was strict ly enjoined upon the master to treat hlB apprentice- "as his own rfon," and In somo trades he was bidden to re member (hat his responsibility did not end on the threshold of the workshop, that the "soul nnd morals" of the little stranger had claims on his Fe'lcltude In a dny when the streets of Paris were not verj nice for anybody, and were more or 'ess tlangerous after dark for everybody, Wie master was Instructed to be careful of what erraiul he dis patched the youngster, and the pastry cooks, whose apprentices were often sent to cry enkes and creams upon tho public ways, were continually warned to prevent the lnds from falling among evil company. It seems certain that, so far as the middle nges are concern ed, the rules, precepts and admoni tions were not only framed with great good ikmibo nnd enre. but were very rig idly enforced upon all masters who had youths and lads In tl.el.1 employ. High and low, In the society of that day, the iod and birch were nourished, with small discrimination ami less nice ty; and if the lutois of little princes had leave to whip them freely appren tices could not ex.pi.ct to come off toa lightly nt a master's hand. Do Atvty tilth tlin Cuime. A tainted breath may be temporarily puriflrd by occasional! che-ing a bt of orris rc.i.t or stick cinnamon. Hut thin merely disguises the odor. A bad breath comes chiefly from drcajjrg teeth, and in some (uses has Its origin in a disordeied stomach. When dis eased teeih caiibe impure breath, re coil l.se should be had to 11 dentist; when organic disease is the cause, as is eiy often the case, u physician should always be consulted. The breath should always be kept sweet, and peo ple should guard against making them selves disagreeable to their assoclat's by being indifferent In this mattter. Many a woman, otherwise charming in every respect, has unwittingly repelled her acquaintances by her impure breuth. New York Weekly.- Success and Suffering linked. Success and suffering are vitally and organically linked. If you succeed without suffering it Is because some one else haB suffered before you; If you suffered without Biiccess it Is that someone else may succeed after you. Two Iteiirflclary'lIequetU.

NEKUASKAN". W' ASIA IS WONDERFUL. Thut Continent (lie Ktntje for Prominent Historical Figures. Writing of his travels in the Orient, Lord Curzon, the prosont viceroy of India, has the following good wonl to sny for Asia in genf-rnl; Asia has al ways appenrel to me to possess a fas cination which no country oi empire in Europe, still less any pnrt of tho western hemisphere, can claim. It Is believed by many to have been the crndle of our race, and the birthplace of our language, Just as It certainly has been the hearthstone of our rollglon, and the fountain-hoad of the beat of our Ideas. Wide ns is the chasm that now severs us, with Its philosophy our thought Is still Interpenetrated Tho Asian continent hns supplied a scene for the principal events, and a stage for the most prominent figures. In his tory. Of Asian parentage is that force which, more than any other Influence, hns transformed and glorified man kind viz., the belief in a single Deity. Five of the six greatest moral teachors that the world has seen Moses. Bud (fha, Confucius, Jesus and Mahommed were born of Asian parents, and lived upon Asian soil. Roughly Bpeak ing. their creeds may be snld to have divided the conquest of the universe. The moBt famous or the wisest of kings Solomon, Nebuchadnezzar, Cy rus. TImur, Haber, Akbar have sat upon the Asian thrones. Thither tho great conqueror of tho Old World turned aside for the sole theater be fitting so enormous an ambition Tho three most populous existing empires Great Britain, Itussln and China-aro Asian empires, and It is because they are not merely European but Asian that the two former are Included in the category. To Asia we owe the noblest product of all literatur, in the Old Testament of the Hebrew Scrip tures; the sweetest of lyrics, In the eplthalarolum of .1 Jewish king, tho embryos of modern knowledge. In the empiricism of Arabian geometers and metaphysicians. In Asia the drama wa3 bom. There the greatest writer of an tiquity chose a scene for his immortal epic. There, too, the mariner's com pass lirnt guided men over the pathless vvatei.s In our own times alone it is with her aid thut we have arrived nt the evolution of three new bdences comparative mythology, co-nmratlvo -"'-prudence, and philology. Krom Ahia we have received the architecture of the Moslem that moat spiritual and refined of human conceptions the por celain of China, the faience of Persia, Rhodes, and Damascus, the infinitely ingenious nrt of Japan On her aoil was reared the modt astonishing of nil cities, Babylon; the most princely of palaces, Perbopolls; the stateliest of templ?s, Angkor Wat; the loveliest of tombs, the Taj Mahal. There, too. may be found the most wonderful of Na ture's productions the loftiest moun tains on the bin-face of the globe, the most lenowned, Tf not tViTTargest. of rivers, the moHt entrancing of land scapes. In the heart ofv Asia lies to this day the one mystery which tho nineteenth century has still left for the t -entleth to explore viz., the Tib etan oracle of Lhasa. Wireless Teh g aphy for Japan.
