Slicll-L‘Zsh Clothes.
Many of the crab species of shellfish
“clothe” themselves. Some species
dress themselves elaborately by gath-
ering bits of seav. cod, chewing the
ends and sticking them on the shell, so
as to look like a stone covered with
weed. They spend hours with the ut-
most perseverance in making these
pieces adhere by trying the same piece
over and ove1 again till they succeed.
They have a fine sense of symmetry,
and always put a red piece on one limb
to match the red piece they have put
on the other, and a. green piece to
match a green piece. though 110w they
know red from green in the dark pools
where tl ey live is hard to say, unless
it is by taste 01 smell. When once
their dress is completed it improves
the older it becomes, as the weed
actually grows on them.

The Turtle Took- a; Direct Route for Home
hExperiments with Bob's
An interesting experiment was tried .
by a. Maine farmer’ 5 family not long
since with a. mud turtle which had .
'been brought to the house from a small
pond a quarter of a. mile away, says
'the Lewiiston (Me. ) Journal. ~It was
noticed that when 'set free the reptile
traveled of}. in the direction of the
pond (“going back home,” said one of
the lads), and this led them to put him
to the test. He was tried under a great
variety of circumstances which might
tend to confuse even a mud turtle of
uncommon mental capacity, but put
him down in Whatever way they
would, or anywhere, he would instant-
ly turn his stubby 'nose straight for
the pend and walk OH with every ap-
pearance of one who knows he' is right
and intends to go ahead. He evident-
‘ly had the same instinct or supernab
ural know ledge so often observed in
pigs, dogs and cats, which will take a
bee line for home when they could not
pOssibly know its dir c'ction by any
power of observation possessed by
human beings
It may not be amiss to note in con-
nection with the tin tle incident the
experiments tried by an eminent Eng-
lish naturalist with bees, which pos-
sess the same peculiai knowledge of
d3'ection. He took bees from their
hive and carried them in a close b0x
by a circuitous co use to a point at a.
consider able distance aw ay , but on lib-
eration they would start straight for
the hive. After testing this Repeated-
ly, he stopped on the way while carry-
ing the box, and whirled it ‘ rapidly
around his head a. number of times.
Then when liberated the bees were
confused and flew abOut in various di-
rections, not knowing where to '; go.
From this he attributed the faculty of
flying straight for home to result from
be keen attention paid by the bees to
the direction taken while they were
being carried away and ' whiéh th’e
whirling of the bOx upset completely.”
FASTER THAI“! THE MOON.
Extraordinary \clocity .of 11 Shot; from :1
Branch (51111 . .
Quite independently of anyqu'estions
as to the advantages of modern 01'd-.
nancc in actual warfare, the scientific
aspects of certain recent achievements
in gunnery are eminently noteworthy.
It appears, says the London Graphic,.
that a gun- has been constructed at
Ruelle which has an internal diameter
of 6.49 inches. The length of the bore
is no less than 48}v§.fect—.—thz1t is to say,
about ninety timesthe diameter. -' The
advantage sought by giving such un-
usual proportions to the - weapon-is to
enable the pressure of' the gases. pro-
duced by the exploding powder to act
as .long as possible 011 the projectile.
By this means a velocity of projection
has been obtained cwhich is, I believe,
a. record-performance. -Not manyyears
ago a. velocity of 1,300 feet per second
- imparted to the missile at the moment of
issue from the muzzle would have been
considered a good. result. But with
the remarkable piece of artillery whose
dimensions have just been specified,
a speed three times as great 'is stated
to have been obtained. The actual
figure indicated by ,thedelicate instru-
ment employedin such measurements
is 3,981 feet per second; This tremend—
ous velocity is more than. threevquar-
ters of a mile per second. No doubt
the earth hurries along in its orbit at
a rate more than twenty times‘greater
than that which this cannon has com-
municated to its projeé‘tilc, so that our
[globe need fear no rivalry from artil-
lery. But the (moon must look to its
laurels. It appears that our satellite
only accomplishes about 3, 330 feet per
second in its revolution round: the
earth. We thus learn that now, for
the first time, apiece of ordnance has
been constructed capableof launching
forth a missile with ,a. velocity actually
exceeding that with which the queen
‘ of night wen (18 her solitary way.
EXPENSIVE CHAIRSL
Some That Belonged to Royalty In Past
Ages.
The shah of Per Sin. owns the most
valuable arm- chair in the world. He
has an arm-chair of solid gold, inlaid
with precious stones. About a year
ago, says Tid-Bits, some of the stones
were stolen from one of the legs of the
chair, and the shah, full of indigna-
tion, ordered the arrest of a number of
servants and the keeper of the palace
responsible for the furniture, with the
intimation that if the thief was not dis-5
covered the keeper Would be beheaded. '
The culprit being eventually found, he
was forthwith beheaded and his head
carried on a pole by the imperial body-
guard through the streets of Tehcran.
A valuable arm- -clm_ir is in the posses-I.
sion of the earl of Itadnor. It original-
ly cost £40, 000, and was presented by
the city of Augsburg to Emperor Ru-
dolph II.. of Geimany about the year
1576 It is of star-31.111111 took the artist
about thirty veai s to make. The chair
became the property, 'of Count Tess’in,
ambassador from the c'o'urt of S'w‘eden
to the English court. Gustavus B'ran-
der afterivards bought it, as an an-
tique, for 1, 800 guineas. Of chaiis
once owned by British celebrities, some
were lately sold by auction: Shake-
speare’ s for £126; Gay’ s, £30; Theodore
Hook’s, £19; Bulwer Litton’ 5, £13;
Anne Boleyn’s, £10 105.; Charles II.’s,
£10; Mrs. Siddons’, £7; Pope’s, £5 10s.;
