An old salt, after sailing the sea for years, thought he would try a life ashore for awhile. He looked around for a job, and was engaged by a farmer, saying, as he had plowed the deep for years, he thought he could plow the land. He went home with the farmer, and after a good night's rest and breakfast etertod out to plow. The farmer hitched up a yoke of oxen, with a horse on to lead. Taking two turns around the field and then turning the team over to Jack, he said he would go to the house for family prayers. It was plain sailing for a short time, but the teals didn't like Jack's way of navigating. The oxen turned the yoke and things became suarlod up. Jack hove to and went to the house, asking for the deacon. He was told the family was at prayers, but pushed in and hailed the deacon: "Say, deacon, the starboard ox Is on the port side and the port ox is on the starboard side. The old mare is athwart the bows, and the whole thing Is drifting to hadee stern first. Belay your prayers and some down and clear away the wreokl"- 3oaton Herald. John Stewart Estate, Benmll,er Art.

THE CLAIM MADE FOR FISH, INSECTS AND OTHER CREATURES. • How a Young Lady Trained a Caterpillar. Educated Oysters In France -Evidence of Cerebral Action In Carp Which Ap- pears to Settle the Question. Henry de Parvule has written for a Frenob newspaper the following article on the memory of fish, insects and other Matures: "Herr Edinger, the German anatomist, recently discovered that fishes have mem- ories. Now it is believed that insects and mollusks aro equally gifted. One of my lady readers, a teacher of drawing in the aria schools, put the following question to me: 'How can any one imagine any animal to exietwithout amemory?' And, dwelling upon her query, she affirms that oaterptllare have memories. She ut one lime possessed a big brown caterpillar with magnificent fur. She kept him In a work- box, and carefully fed him with choice leaes. Now this caterpillar, following the fashion of bis kind, used to roll him- self up tato it ball whenever he was fright- ened. When the lady wanted to make bis bed and fix up bis apartments, she took bim delicately on a leaf and brought him out of the box. At first the creature would roll bbnself up, but in a short time he be- came tame and remained in an out- stretched condition, knowing well that no harm was intended. "'I was then a schoolgirl in the Sacre- Cceur of Beauvais,' said my correspondent, 'and with my oaterplllar 1 gave exhibi- tiona to the sisters and the girls.' When- ever she touched him, he remained per- fectly at ease and never coiled himself, but when any one of the other girls touched him he instantly rolled himself up. He knew his mistress well, Therefore the creature evidently possessed atnemory. "One morning the lady opened the box and to her astonishment the oaterpillar was gone. In his plaoe there was a little heap of agglutinated hairs. Her pet had become a chrysalis. The stators and pu- pils awaited the arrival of the butterfly with impatienoe. The question was, Would the butterfly have any recollections of its existence as a caterpillar, and would it remember its mistress The an- swer is easily guessed. Butterfly and cat- erpillar are two, and the butterfly had no recollection of its kind nurse and paid no attention to her whatever. When it rose 1n the world, it forgot its old friend '"The young lady afterward raised sev- eral caterpillars, but none of them evinced such intelligenee as the first. At all events, the statement proves that it is quite posst- bt oaterpillars have memories. "Here is another example relative to mollusks. A civil engineer wrote to me ae follows: 'While at Courseulles-sur-Mer I watched with curiosity the oyster floats. Noticing a workman at low,tlde shoveling out a great quantity of oysters upon a de- oltvity, so as to keep them completely dry, I asked him what was the utility of the operation. He replied that the oysters were to be vent to Paris, but that before sending there it was necessary to educate them and teach them to economize the water in their sbells. If you export oys- ter's that are aoouetomed to be always in the water, they open an the road and ar- rive at their destination dried out, dead and spoiled. If, on the contrary, they are planed upolo a declivity, so that they will be alternately under water and high and dry, they will learn in a few days that, it they open their shells wpait they at'9 Shay dry, ey will be left without water dbd doubt- less Soffer considerable inconvenience. Consequently they wisely retain the liquid, and when they learn that trick they are es moiontly advanced to pass their examinations to Paris. Therefore the oge- tef, though inferior in intelligence in a flail, is Mieoepiible of training. It mast be admitted that it bas a oertin, tnensory, &ince it reoo1100t6 its enfferinge from the iinprudent opening of its shell when it >p not in the water and knows enough to keep itself 'shut whoa in a basket.' "But here 1s another example in regard to fishes. It is given by M. Pierre Megntn of the Eleven'. 'It is not necessary to travel very lar,' be says, 'to get the ovi- deuoe o[ memory among fishes. One need only to go to Fontainebleau and look at the historic carp in the ponds of the oastle. I often went there some years ago when I was camped in the forest with my regi- ment during the firing exercises. There is one spot behind the castle where people amuse themselves by throwing bread and fruit to the carp. The little pieces of bread are eagerly devoured and fought for by the fish. But if an apple is thrown in, the fish, reoogniaing it, pass it by disdainfully. They know by experienoe that the thing ie beyond the power of their jaws. here is one trick which is often played upon them, and that is to throw to them an entire loaf and as hard a loaf as can bo procured. The carp poke their noses at it and retire, keeping it in view. They surround it, remail}ing et a little dietonoe from M. Ono big old fellow approaches it from time to time to ascertain the progress of the soaking and softening, and in about 20 minutes, when the explorer die- oovers that the required degree of softness has boon reaohed, ho notifies his compan- ions of 'the fact by a wag of his tail or by whatever means of oommunication the carp possese, and instantly they charge _ 13 -0611 -the lee leaf= It to pieces and help themselves. In a few seconds nothing le left of it. "'Now, this shows that experience has taught the oarp that the bread, no matter how bard it may be at first, is bound in time to beoome soft enough to eat, and they wait patiently for the expiration of the neoessary time. In this there Is not only evidenoe of memory, but alao the proof of a complex intellectual operation.' Pierre Magnin may be right, be- oaueo it is very dlAloult to explain in any other way than by cerebral action that aeries of facts, in some degree reasoned oat, exhibiting the carp waiting for the soften- ing of the hard bread every time 1t is thrown to then."
