TO-DAY S MISCELLANY.

The historian of this age will certainly linger some time over the name of Mr. Robert Smillie, who has rotired from activo participation in the groat coal struggle, romarks a correspondent in a Home journal. It is curious to imagine some student of the next ago trying, with the yellow- ing files, to disentanglo Mr. Smillio's real place among the

Neo-Georgians, for no man played

less consciously the part of the

ogre in which he has been

presented by those who disagroo with him. His photographs will probably suggest to our studenti that slightly puzzled air which may be the key to the mystery, for no man war ever less Д revolutionary at heart than this miners leader who has!

Have you ever seen an oyster swimming? Probably not, untess you are an oystor fisherman; yet they all do so for some time in the days of their extreme youth. One of the must curious facts about the oyster is that the same individual is at one time a male and at another a foniale. During the time thal it is female, the oyster produces a considerable number of eggs. It i cannot be said to "lay" them, for || ENGLISH MADE they are kept inside the body. where some time later the young hatch out. After a few days the baby oysters, who are very lively little follows, leave the shell of their mother, who proceeds straightway to change her sex and become a father! The babies, who are now called "spats," mako thoir way gaily to the top of the water, where they swim about freely for some time. Tiny mites they are at first; a hundred of them placed side by side would not measure an inch.
