Shooting on the Wing.

! Sothern, the actor, is said to have
/ devoted Il part of each summers yaca-
ton to fishing anG hunting in Canada.
F. G.. de Fontoine. in his inimitable
biography of the ae.or, relates little
incident which occurred at Quebec.
when Florence, George Holland. and
SOthern were rambling through the
town waiting for the steamer. They
had started down the principal street.
Suddenly Florence commenced to yell
-''Hi, hi, there, You-man with the
birds, Hi, hi, come here"'
SOthern and Holland turned TO see
what the bluster was all about. and
observed Florence gesticulating to a
man on the other side of the street who
was carrying a lot of birds on a string.
| Sothern said:
"Florence, what the mischief is the
| rowg'
Florence replied-'-Sh h-h-h, Birds,
my boy, birds. Wen buy them from
this sportsman and take them down with
US; it will be pleasant change of diet
-broiled birds on toast, you know"
BY this time the ''sportsmau" had
crossed the street and was stanIing
before the trio. lie was rather singu-
lar sort of fellow, and withal Ger
man. His face was about rs expressive
as bologna sausage, and though not
deaf, it seemed TO take minutes for each
inquiry 10 reach his understanding.
This at first made Florence think he
couldn't hear. Billy opened the nego-
tiations by asking:
"Do you want to sell your birds:"
The Teutonic sportsman, after long,
dull look, replied, "Vot!"
Il say" repeated Billy, much louder,
''do you want to sell your birds?"
The same long, dull look from the
man, and then he drawled out, "well,
yes, dinks | sells dem."
"Well, how much for them.'
.'yot?" with the same stolidity as
before.
Il say, how much for them ?" howled
Florence.
''You buy dem :"
'sOf course I'll buy them; how much
do you want for them:'
"You buy dem all -
''Yes, yes, I'll buy them all. Come,
now. let's finish the bargain"
.Vot?" with the same stupid look.
'sOh, Lord.'' said Billy, now getting
red i'm Ihe face. "What stupid fellow
Look here how much for the birds?"
The vendor of game for the first time
seemed TO understand, for he COM
menced very slowly, and in the most
exasperating way, to deliberately count
his miserable bunch. Florence was
getting impatient, and just going to
bawl out again, when the man looked
at him as before, and slowly remarked
swell, sells dem for two dollar"
"All right" said Billy. Now, where
did you shoot them:"
"Vot?''
81 say, where did you shoot them:"
"Vere / shood 'cm:'
Yes; where:"
II shood dem out nit der woods.
Would you dink | shood birds in my
front barlor?"
This rather staggered Billy. and they
all commenced TO laugh at him, for he

The Noise of the Finger.

In the current number of the Medical
Record DR.. Hammond says that when
you poke the end of your finger in your
ear the roaring noise you hear is the
sound of the circulation in your finger.
Which is fact, as any one can demon
strate for himself by first putting his
fingers in his ears, and then stopping
them up with other substance. Try it,
and think what a wonder of machine
your body is, that even the points of our
fingers are such busy workshops that
they roar like a small Niagara. The
roaring is probably more than the noise
of the circulation of the blood. 1t Is the
voice of all the vital processes together
the tearing down and building up
processes that are always going forward
in every living body, from conception
to death.

Why Glass is Broken by Hot Water.

No PERSON could be so foolish as to
hazard the breaking of glass by pour
ing hot water upon it, if he understood
the simple means of accounting for the
breakage. If hot water is poured into
a glass with round bottom, the ex-
pansion produced by the heat of the
water will cause the bottom of the glass
to enlarge, while the sides, which are
not heated, retain their former dimen-
sions, and consequently. if the heat be
sufficiently intense, the bottom will be
forced from the sides, and a crack or
flaw will surround that part of the glass
by which the sides are united to the
bottom. If, however, the glass be pre-
viously wetted with a little warm water,
SO that the whole is gradually heated
and thereby expanded, boiling water
can then be poured in without damage
If a silver spoon is placed in the goblet
or glass jar, boiling water can then be
poured in without danger. unless the
article has been taken from frosty
closet and is very cold.-Springf field
