Mr.. Darwin publishes letter
from Mr.. Arthur III. Gray of Dan
versport, Mass, with an illustration
showing a common mussel or clam
(unlo complanatus) attached to the
foot of q blue winged teal. When the
bird was shot the shell-fish was alive.
The author Of the Origin of Species
considers this case well worth re-
cording, as it serves to account, in
part, at least, for the fact "that ami

wide distribution yet each river

:" would have undoubtedly been

Your grandfather Allan was a
Scotch minister, a grand good man,

intelligent creature, of whom he
thought great deal. lib on his
part loved his master so. that like
Mary's little lamb, he followed whore.

Sundays he was shut in the house and
chained. Of course lib did not at
all approve, and on one memorable
Sunday he unfastened his chain, slip
ped out of the house and stole away
to the kirk, where he hid on the
sounding board directly over the min.
ister's head. He behaved quietly un-
til the sermon began. Then he moved
to the edge OF the board where he
could see his master.Tib looked at the
preacher with great interest, and
soon began to mimic the gestures. As
he was in full view Of the congraga-
ton the effect was ridiculous enough,
and soon even the sober grown folks
shook with suppressed laughter, while
the little folks couldn't suppress theirs
at all. The minister, who couldn't
see master lib, felt very indignant,
and rebuked his people sharply, and
still the laughing continued. Then
your grandfather, angry and excited,
raised his voice and gesticulated more
violently, and the monkey, watching
from above, initiated him with great
spirit and liveliness, until one stimuli
taneous shout burst from the people
and resounded through the kirk.

SHIRRING.-A great deal of shir-

that have been sent over since the
latest openings In the first place,
large round collars and deep cuffs of
thin dress materials are made up en-
tirely of finely shirred rows. Yokes
of muslin and of grenadine are shir-
red either across or perpendicularly.
Plastron squares are shirred, and
there are shirred vests. Polonaise
of cashmere have close princesse
backs with belted fronts, and these
full fronts are drawn into shape by
clusters of shirring done at intervals
across the front breadths. Over
skirts with deep aprons have rows
of shirrlng down eac.l seam, and il
is probable that the shirred flounces
will also be revived.
