' Tru* Fortitudi.
True fortitude I take to be the quiet,
possession of a man’* self, and an un
disturbed doing of bis duty, whatever
evil besets or danger lies in the way.

River's Freakish 'Movement.
Tlie Cumberland river lias the dis
tinction of leaving its home state and
entering It again. It flows through the
eaateru and south-central part of the
■tate, then tarns south into Tennessee,
but farther west enters Kentucky
again and Joins the Ohio, a few miles
enst of the mouth of.the Tennessee
river.
“Haberdasher.”
One of the most puzzling words le
haberdasher. Tbjs was formerly a ped*
flier who went round to fain selling
ribbon*, buttOhe, and othgr small aril*
dee, which he carried ia a Back. His
name coaies from two old words—
fcafer, meaning oats, and tasche, a
■nek.
Pestilential Broom-Rape.
An arch-enemy of clover, is the
broonwape, of whlcji there are no
fewer than one v hundred and eighty'
varieties. Their method of robbery is
to penetrate- the ground with their
roots Just as far as the roots of their
favorite host. On these they fasten
themselves, and feust on the sap
which the victim unwillingly makes
for them. Rape seed ■ never dies. It
may lie dormant in tlie ground for
years; but if It finds Itself at Just
the right depth below the surface, It
will waste no time In germinating.
Animal. Mimicry,
Observers of nature are frequently
struck with the singular resemblances
of Insects to leaves, dried sticks dnd so
forth, and these ^likenesses are- sup
posed to have grown out of the ueces-
>lty of protection against or conceal-;
ment from enemies. An interesting
example of this kind of resemblance
was recently cited by . a government
naturalist, who exhibited a spider
found Inhabiting some rocks neur
Cunnes, oh which were also fastened
tlie cases of a species of moth. When
at rest the Eftfidcr exhibited almost
precisely the same form and color
atf .the. moth cases surrounding 1 It.
