Artificial Cultivation of Sponges. An interesting investigation now being carried on in Florida by tha bureau of fisheries has for its ob ject the discovery and development of methods by which the valuable sheep wool sponge may be cultivat ed artificially. Tbe method which promises tha most satisfactory results is that of using cuttings. Large sheep wool sponges arc cut into small pieces, which are fastened to an insulated wire fixed in tho water, so that the nges arc supported a few inches ve the bottom. These small bits, placed at close intervals along tho wire, soon heal and form an organic, attachment to it, and very soon be- in to grow. It is too soon to pre-. ict just what the results will be, but the indications are, so far, very encouraging, and ,it is believed that the time is not far distant when tha sponge fisheries of Florida will be vastly increased in productiveness and value. — National Geographic Magazine. The Cast of Governments. A table has been prepared and is sued by the department of com merce and labor, indicating that, de- spito the great size of the appropria tions, this country is per capita more cheaply maintained than any other in tho world, with the excep tion of China and India, and pos sibly Russia. It costs, according to this, just $7.97 a year for each man, woman and child in the United States to run the government, as against $9.30 for Canada, $9.48 for the German empire, $9.54 for “Swe den, $10.09 for Spain, $11.45 fof Portugal, $11.40 for the Nether lands, $12.40 for Cuba, $12.68 for Argentina, $14.27 for Austria-Hun gary, $17.30 for Paraguay, $17.40 for Belgium, $17.84 for France, $21.39- for the United Kingdom, $.17.69 for Australia and $38.38 for New Zealand. Russia’s per capita ex pedditure is approximately the sam< as that of tho United States. Preparing Far Emergency. Perhaps as tho following anec dote would seem to-indicate, not all authors belong to the mutual ad miration society said by a recant writer to exist among the members of the craft. At a dinner given aome time ago in honor of mil Caine, Thomas Nelson Page was invited to intro duce the English novelist. One of the guesta next to Mr. Page, just before the toasts began, passed his menu card around the table with the request that Mr. Caine put his signature on it. “That’s a good idea,” said Page. “I must do that,.too.

The 'ate Thomas B. Reed enjoyed a joke on no one more than on himself. One such is related by a Washington society woman who en joyed his personal Iriendahip. After ail, tha joke waa chiefly op ., which may bs tha reason why she and not Mr. Reed waa the narrator. She ii a cat ehthuaiast. Many and Beautiful are the cats she owns; grave and reverend are their names, chiefly borrowed from emi nent pnbiic personages, but none waa more handsome or dignified than tha one she had named “Mr. Reed.” When one day (he two “Mr. Reed.-” accidentally met In her re ception room and tlie more illus trious of them, attracted by the beauty of his furry namesake, stooped to stroke him and ask “What do you cull' him?” the lad}' had a bad quarter of a minute. She did not know just how the czar of ths.house of representatives would like the idea that a cat bad been named for him. So aha itum- Med out a hastily invented fictitious name, and the conversation passed to other topics, when suddenly a per emptory voice sounded on the stair- wav—“Mr. Reed!” “Mr. Reed I” it continued. “Are S ou in tho parlor?
