The gills of a flsli are situated at the
back part of the sides of tiie liead uiw
cousist of a number of vascular mem
branes, which are generally arranged
la double, friiigelike rows, attached to
tbe parts by the base only, lu some
cases these membranes are feather
shaped, in othors mere folds attached
to the sides of ihe gill cavities. The
Ish is a cold blooded animal? that is to
say, its temperature is seldom more
thau a degree or two higher than the
water lu which it Uvea. This being
true, the creature needs but a very
rtnall amouut of oxygen to keep the
blood at a temperature sufficiently high
to sustain life. This oxygen is sup
plied to the blood of the fish by respir
ing large quantities of water, Or, rath
er, drinking large quantities of water,
and respiring the air separated from
it by the gills. ' This explains why n
fish cannot live in a tank of water
which has been sifted through the gills
time and time again any better thau a
human being or other animal can in
air that has been deprived of all its ox
ygen by being taken into lungs and ex

riums may be properly said to drowu,
because they perish for want of air,
the same thing which occasions death

Rain Coat For a Bear.
There is one big brown bear in New
York that gets coddled beyond belief.
He belongs to a Sixth avenue furrier.
He is not a live bear. Even the mem- 1
ory of the oldest passenger on the ele- '
vated road goeth not back to the time j
of that bear's demise; yet, in spite of j
his long period as a "dead one," he is 1
the sleekest, best groomed bear in New ,
York. That is because the furrier
takes such good care of him.
Storms are never allowed to beat j
upon his glossy coat. He cannot be :
humored to the extent of being brought '
indoors during a downpour, because it 1
is his business to stand on a pedestal
outside and drum up trade, but the
next best thing is done for him. He is i
provided with a rain coat. It covers j
him from snout to. tail; so, no matter j
how hard the rain may beat or the 1
wind may blow, he is insured from ;
damage thereby.? New York Press. | ;
The Fate of Filed. i
Some light on, the fate of flies was 1
thrown by H. Hill in a lecture at the
Royal Victoria hall, London, on "Flies
and How They Disappear." In Eng;
land alone there are 3,000 different
kinds of flies, and Mr. Hill mentioned
the following principal ways- in which
flies perish: They are drowned in milk
at the breakfast table; they get sur
rounded by a white fungus, which saps
their strength; they are eaten by spi
ders, wasps, frog?, chameleons, lizards,
field mice or fish.
With so many enemies it might be '
wondered how flies have continued to j |
exist, but Mr. Hill said that he had t
himself witnessed a daddy' longleg- j
whose front half was being devoured j
by a spider continuing calmly to lay '
eggs with the other half, as though
nothing were happening.
The Office nijtiilfleil.
A Greek named Epaminondas was
condemned by his enemies to fill an of
fice much beneath him, which consLt
ed in cleaning the streets and clearing
away refuse. He declared that he
would make them see that not only
does the task show what the man is,
but also the man shows what the task
la, and he raised the office to a great j
dignity, teaching that no honest work
need degrade the worker, but an hon
est worker can dignify the work.
