The Butter Bird,

Humboldt, in his "Travels in South
America" records a visit to Caripe,
where is the cavern of the Gaueharo
bird, and our knowledge of this wonder
is derived from his most interesting mar
rative. Among the natives in the coun-
try around this cavern is celebrated tor
its great size, for the mysterious birds
which haunt its inmost recesses, Tor the
river which flows from it, and for the
superstitious belief that in its gloomy
depths is the abode of the spirits OF
their departed ancestors. The name
which it bears signifies ''the mine OF
fat" because from the young of the
birds which inhabit it an immense
quantity of fat is annually obtained
These birds are about the size OF our
common fowl, with wings which ex
pand to three feet and half. All day
loLg they dwell in the cavern, and, like
our owls, only come forth at night
They subsist entirely on fruits, ant
have very powerful beaks. which ar
necessary to crack the tough nuts ant
reeds which form part of their food,

Witticism from a Paris paper: a
sentry placed before powder magazine
sees his colonel approach, smoking an
imported Havana cigar. He presents
arms, and says, firmly, but respectfully:
Pardon me, colonel, but smoking is
not allowed here" The colonel, with n
superb gesture, filings away the cigar,
and gives the faithful sentinel louis
dor. AS soon as he got around the
corner, the faithful sentinel, with proud
tears on his rugged countenance, picks
up the cigar, and finishes it with every
manifestation of delight.

Famous Men and Cats.

Our domestic favorites-ca ts-were
not highly thought Of in the middle
ages. They were then looked on as
Satanic agents and were burned alive.
In Paris every St. Johns day number
Of the abhorred animals were heaped up
in baskets and bags in the Place de
Greve, to afford an to-da fe, the SOW
ereign himself setting fire to the pile.
The practice continued for a long time,
the last monarch who officiated in this
manner being Louis XIV. The perse-
cutors of the feline race were, no doubt.
norant of le fact that cats had been
the object .superstitious generation in
early tt %. In Egypt, for instance,
the cat was deified, as the patron of
liberty, and similar respect was shown
it throughout nearly the whole of the
East. The Turks still regard "Tabby"a as
the "cleanest " of animals; Mohammed
himself, indeed, having had great lik
ing for cats, it is only natural that all
good M ssulman SHOULD profess the
same affection.
1t is not in the East alone, however,
that the feline tribe have managed to
acquire secure and recognized position
in society. Many great men have had
an inordinate fondness for cats. Ricte-
lieu's special favorite was splendid
Angera, his furry confdant's usual rest
ing place being his eminence's table,
20 70 Di n
Monfaigne used to obtain relaxation By
playing with his cat. Colbert reared
half dozen cats in his private study,
and taught them, after lengthy display
of patience, to perform al sorts of tricks.
Fontenelle was very fond of cats, and
used to place particular old tom :"
in an armchair and deliver an Grafton
before him. We must not forget, too.
that felis catus supplied Perrault with
one of the most attractive subjects Of
his stories, and that under the pen Of
this admirable story-teller, "Puss in
Boots " has become an example Of the
power of work, industry and ability.
A promising youth recently surprised
his father by asking: Father, do you
like motherP" "Why, yes. of course. "
.And she likes you?" "Of course she
does" did she ever say SOP" MANY
time, my son." "Did she marry you
because she loved youp" Certainly
she did" The boy carefully scrutinized
his parent, and, after long pause,
asked: "Well, was she as near-sighted
then as she is now?"

Musk.

Musk is a concrete substance found in
an animal having near affinity to the
deer tribe, native of Thibet, China and
Siberia. The musk deer is timid ami
NAL, and rarely appears during the day;
consequently the musk collectors watch
and surprise it at night. The best musk
comes from China, and to be genuine it
should be purchased in the natural pod
or bag, as it is very often adulterated.
The Bengal musk is interior, and that
from Russia the worst of all. The hair
on the pod of the best musk is fawn
color; that on the inferior dirty
white. A variety of musk is found in
the muskrat of Canada, an animal about
the size of small rabbit. Musk is of
bitter taste, and Of an odor more pow
erful than anything known; substances
in its neighborhood become strongly
infected by it, and when once perfumed
with it, long retain the scent. 1t has
been known to affect chests of tea
placed at a considerable distance, even
though both had been packed up in
leaden boxes, for which reason the East
India company gave an order not to
import musk and tea in the same ships.
Many persons dislike the odor. 1t has
the property, when employed in very
small quantities, of augmenting the
scent of other sub.,,ances, without I'M
J parting its own.

"Lennox, is it possiblep Why-well,
this is surprise, and most delightful
one. We thought you had gone home,
disguised with America and all it con-
tanned.
And Rose looked at Vera, and Vera
at her-a little hushed, almost terrified,
look into Roses eyes.
Then Vera stroked and kissed her.

There Is a Natural Body.

Immortal is my friend, 1 know:
Not summers turf nor winters snow
Nor depth of earth could turn to naupbt
SO much OF life and love'and thought.
And yet that form did intrust
10 kindred earth, the dust to dust.
And thither still my thoughts will tend,
As if to find my vanished friend.
Sacred the robe, the faded glove,
Once worn by one we used to love:
Dead warriors in their armor live,
And in their relics saints survive:
And there tenderly laid down
The hands that fondly clasped my own
Ihaeyes that knew and answered mine
With many meaning, loving sign
The lips familiar with my name,
That freely called me and came
The beast that harbored all goodwill,
The loving heart now cold and still.
Oh, sheltering earth, henceforth defend
All thou hast garnered OF my friend
Against the wintry tempest's beat,
Against the summers scorching heat.
VIZ, -
Within thine all-embracing breast
Is hid one more torsaken nest,
While in the sky, with folded wings,
The bird that lett it sits and sings.

Stewart. member of Congress, said in
a speech that Ohio, Kentucky and In
diana sent their haystacks, corntields
and fodder to New York and Philadel-
phia for sale.
Mr.. Wicklife, of Kentucky, called
him to order, declaring that those States
did not send haystacks or corntelds to
New York for sale.
"Well, what do you sendp" asked
Stewart.

The Vocal Power Of Light and the
Statue of MemmOn.

Journal, that a singular phenomenon
connected with the famous statue of,
Memm on at Thebes, which has been the
cause of much speculation for centuries
finds scientific solution in the paper
read by Professor Alexander Bell, on the
production and reproduction of sound
by means of light, before the American
association for the Advancement of
Science the other evening. The discov-
cries, Mr.. Bell stated. were made by Mr..
Summer fainter and himself. Their
researches show that all classes of mat
ter, with scarcely an exception, are SEN
titive to vibrations of light. They have
found this sensitiveness in all metals,
rubber, paper, wood, mica and silvered
glass. The only substances which failed
were carbon and thin microscopic glass.
When the vibratory beam of light falls
upon these substances they emit sounds,
the pitch of which depends upon the
frequency of the vibratoly change in the
light. By means of this quality of light
they have spoken about 800 feet apart
and they believe there is no reason to
doubt that the results will be obtained
at whatever distance a beam OF light
can be flashed from one observatory to
another.
AS is we'll known, the peculiar vocal
powers of the statue of Memmon are
noticed at sunrise, or soon after. The
sound resembles the twanging Oh a
harp-string or the striking of brass,
and in the lap of the statue is stone,
which, on being struck, emits a metal
lie sound. 1t is said that similar sounds
have been produced from stones by the
suns rays, and several of the scientific
men attached to Bonaparte's army in
Egypt have stated that they frequently
heard such a sound, always shortly after
sunrise, apparently issuing from one OF
the roof stones of the temple of Karnak
Another observer says that in q neigh
boring temple he heard repeatedly a
sound like that of harp-string from
some stone above him. This occurred
at noon and he supposed that at this
time the stone became exposed to the sun,
and the sudden expansion from its
warmth produced the sound.
1t has been held by some writers that
the wonderful attribute of the statue
was due to the jugglery of Egyptian
priests, but this theory has not been ac-
cepted. 1t would seem, however, that
the chance observations of scientific
men in Egypt, corroborated by the
scientific discoveries of Professor Bell,
furnish the true solution of mystery
which has greatly interested the learned
world land that the sweet Memmonian
sound" as De Quincy terms it, is due to
beautiful natural Jaw, the knowledg e
of which has just been clearly revealed,
and of which science proposes to take
advantage as a material agent in prac-
teal life. Whether the ancient Egyp-
tians were cogniZant OF this curious law
of matter, and placed the metallic stone
in the lap of the statue, for the purpose
of producing sweet harmonies, is a
question for the learned to puzzle over

IMPORTANT TO THE CIGAR TRADE.

IMPORTANT TO THE CIGAR TRADE.
we have recently had our attention called
70 new and important improvement in tho
manufacture OF cigars, and as it is one that is
clearly destined to revolutionize the cigar bust
ness, we have had one of our reporters, who
Is specially conversaut with the tobacco and
cigar trade, to interview the inventors and
Patentees. The invention was patented May
~ 1913, by Messrs. j. & A. Frey. These
sehtemen have had many years experience
IN the cigar business. The cigars are made
piihclpailV OF the very best seed and Havana
'ooaccos, with closed tucks, and amongst the
advantages they possess over all other cigars
may be mentioned: A positive retention OF
tne aroma OF the filler-its loss by evaporation
neing impossible. A better, quicker and en-
oreiy round light; and they will not break
"nen carried in the pocket. These are advan.
'ages which will be recognized by every
snioSer as being OF the greatest importance
IN snort, it m y be said that Messrs j. & A.
ffey have made very decided hit with their
new idea. No one can properly realize the deli
cacy OF the favor and aroma of a cigar made
IN this way until he makes personal trial,
ana this we advise our readers, whether in
me t'ade or not, to do. Even in the appear
suse OF the cigar there is something novel and
attractive, the small, neat twist, which secures
aaa iaslens the whole, being a decided i'm
pfovement. Though the new patent cigar has
seen for such short time before the public,
mere are already indications that its manutac
lure in the skilliul and experienced hands of
me Messrs. Frey will prove a wonderfully sue.
