The canary is jealous and imita-
tive. A bird fancier in Phenixville,
Australia, taking advantage of these
characteristics, by simple method
makes him musical artistic. He puts
the canary in house where there is no
other bird of any kind. He hangs the
bird before mirror; behind it there is
q musical clock, SO that the bird may
learn the tunes. The canary thinks that
his image in the mirror sings the
melody and he tries to initiate him.
which ne succeeds in doing. The bird
fancier has already taught the plumed,
artistic to sing several entire pieces. He
thinks he can train hundred canaries
to sing in chorus by the same process.
A dispatch from Toxic, Japan, to the
New York Herald, describing the move
ments of Nordenskjold, the Arctic ex-
plorer. in search of a northwest passage,
speaks of Behring's Island and the sea
bear farm established there. The most
important industry of the island is the
export of the skins of the sea bear. which
animal some years ago bid fair to be-
come extinct, but is now thriving and
multiplying under wise and beneficent
system of protection. On one promon-
tory alone were seen as many as two
hundred thousand of the animals, whose
fur is in such great request in American
and European cities. From thirty to
fifty thousand are slaughtered on Behr-
ing's and Copper islands annually, but
only at the time when the hair is in the
best order. No young or females are
allowed to be killed, and otherwise
stringent regulations are enforced ior the
preservation OF valuable species. The
result is that their numbers are now
augmenting, and they display no fear OF
anxiety on the approach of men.

stimulate inventors. The reward for an
invention that will meet all the require
ments is $4,000. AS cattle are now
transported, one great cause of COM
plant is lack of water. Under existing
arrangements the animals suffer, and to
q degree that sometimes lessons their
value, The budding of numbers to-
gether is an evil, as in addition to tie
cramped quarters which do not permit
free movement, unruly or vicious ami
mails sometimes wound and even kill
Others. The jolting of the cars also
causes sores, which impair the value OF
the cattle. 1t is not likely that the re-
ward offered will accomplish what the
keenest-witted railway men and stock
importers have failed to discover, but it
may possibly be the means of suggesting
methods that will at least mitigate evils
complained of. The man who can de-
wise means by which cattle can be
transported great distances without
suffering as they do now, or without the
loss now experienced, can make hand
some fortune But to do that he must
not require much more room than is
occupied by cattle car. nor must he
increase the weight very much.

What He Spoke.

There was crowd of them standing
and sitting around and on the court
house steps, splitting tobacco-juice on
the stone pavement and telling yarns, as
is the custom of men, when the mo-
notony was relieved by the appearance
of Woe -begone looking pedestrian. He
was evidently one of the long-distancs
walkers, and his general get-up did not
leave the impression that he was y man
of very great wealth, or that he was of
. rticuiarly elevated social position
when at home. He looked like for
eigner, and, seeming not over bright, he
was meat for the crowd at once. and
they all began on him in the gentle and
soothing manner characteristic OF the
top dog in a fight. After every fellow
had put in shot, and the peripatetic
had said nothing, one of the party took
it upon himself to discover who and
what he was, as the deliberations of all
of them had not resulted in determining
his nationality.
"Wen, SIR" the inquisitor began,
while the tramp looked at him with a
face as full of expression as wooden

Night follows morn;

And still the years roll OH, roll on,
The years roll on!
Sweet Joy Is tripped by weary care,
Anear bright hope is grim despair;

The height is reached through toll and pain,
The cross is borne the crown to gain,

he has conducted for the past "a years.
Both of these stores are filled with
choice goods. Mr.. Rininger buys his

benefits of these advantages. By deal
