Leeches and Shooting Fish.
from the Youths Companion.l

From the Youths Companion.
Leeches are among the curious pests
which swarm in the moist places of
Malay jungle. Solomon was acquainted
with these blood-suckers, and used their
voracity to represent Unsuitable greed:
1.-The horse-leech hath two daughters
crying, give, give" The two daughters,
a rhetorical expression of the intensity
of the leech's appetite, often illustrate
their tenacious sucking to the unwary
traveller.
Directly the earth trembles with his
step, the Ieeches stretch themselves out
in savage thirst. By some means they
manage to make Judgment on his body
He may not feel them at first, but when
at his journeys end he strips for bath, ,
he finds a score or more of the little
blood-suckers fastened to his legs and
gorged with their sanguinary DINNER.
He puzzles his head IN vain to discover
how they managed to get up his trousers
legs. But on resuming his journey, he
ties mis- trousers tightly round the ankle.
places them in his boots, which he anoints
with lime juice, an abomination to the
little pests. Only in this way may they
be kept off the person.
Another curious specimen of tropical
life, though not pest, which the
traveller sees, is the little shooting fish.
It is an expert marksman, and kills his
game by water-shot.
An English gentleman, who kept one
in basin, reports that it would swim
round and round, watching for fly or
ant to appear on the edge OF the vessel.
AS soon as one was in sight, the fish,
posing itself, would shoot out drop of
water with such dexterity as to cause
the animal to drop into the basin, where
it was speedily swallowed. He also says
that when three or four of these 'sshoot-
ers % are confined IN a basin, they will
fire in turn, with singular regularity.

Shepherd Dous,

It is said that a single shepherd and
his dog will accomplish more in gather
ing herd of sheep from a Highland
farm than twenty shepherds could do
without dogs; and it is fact that with
out this docile animal the pastoral life
would be a mere blank. Without the
shepherds dog the whole of the noun
famous land in Scotland would net be
worth sixpence. 1t would require
more hands to manage stock of sheep,
gather them from the hills, force them
into houses and drive to market, than
the profits of the whole stock would be
capable of maintaining. Well may the
shepherd feel an interest in his dog; he
it is, indeed, that earns the family's
bread, of which he himself is content
with the smallest morsel; always CRATE
full and always ready to exert his utmost
abilities III his masters interest Mel
Their hunger, fatigue, nor the worst
treatment will drive him from his side.
He will follow him through fire and wa
ter, as the saying is, and through every
hardship without murmuring or repin-
ing until be literally falls dead at his
feet If one of them is obliged to
change masters, it is sometimes long be-
fore he will acknowledge the new one, or
condescend to work for him with the
same willingness he did for his former
lord. But if he once acknowledges him,
he continues attached to him until
death, and though naturally proud and
high-spirited, IN SO far as relates to his
master, these qualities are kept SO much
in subordination that he has not will
of his own.

FASHIONABLE FANCIES,

A NEW reign of silver begins this fall
BUTTONS are more beautiful than ever.
SCARFs employed as overskirts are
more popular than ever.
Ir is the thing at present to have fans
match the toilette.
TURKEY red comes in as novelty for
boarding-school dresses for girls.
CERTAIN new designs in stockings have
shells alternating with ribbed stripes.
EITHER yellow gold or gold alleged
with copper to obtain the red tint is now
most liked for bracelets.
SPANISH lace is imported in all the
pale evening tints of pink and blue, as
well as IN cardinal, bronze and cloth
colors.
CLUSTERS of white orchids are among
the huge aesthetic flowers which are i'm
ported for the sides of dresses and for
the corsage.
The prettiest collars for children are
formed of two rows of embroidery, and
fitted around the neck by four or five
rows of shirring.
A WINNING October hat is deep poke
trimmed with black Chantilly lace and
peacocks' eyes laid flat upon the outside
of the brim. At the left side there is a
cluster of sunhowers.
PARTING the hair more orless towards
one side is once more in vogue, and this
style is usually combined with the short,
thick curls seen In portraits of Rosa
Bonheur.
CARICKMAcRoss. or Irish point en-
broidery, is imported in black or white
silk, and in silk mouseline in ecru or
white. The latter is half yard wide
and is used for drapery and trimming to
handsome dresses.
The latest novelty in hand painting is
the decoration of the corners of China
silk handkerchitfs. These are made In
Paris of PLAIN red, blue or ecru for the
center; around this figured hem is
stitched and this is of painted silk, but
the four corners are always of the same
color as the center. On one of these
corners are painted by hand birds of
paradise In tangle of exotics, chariots
drawn by swans, and plenty of white
foam splashing up even to the center
part of the foulard. Climbing plants
that form mass OF bright color on the
corner hem are often painted OF these
pretty pocket foulards.
THE newest evening dresses show de-
cided tendency to pulled panier draper
les. The skirts are much fuller. Pale
rose color is very prominent among the
new dresses. Our bathrooms promise
to repeat the many shades and tints seen
in the moss rose bud instead of the dead
white of last season. Indeed, one wild
rose will furnish color and form
enough for the pattern and tint of most
of the dresses. This color, if unbecom-
ing to the wearer, can be softened by
frills, hounces and elaborate draperes Of
cream white Spanish lace, or a pink sat
III may be combined with white satin or
white MORE antique brocaded with roses.
The new French dresses are all made
with pointed or square necks and with
elbow sleeves.

a Mischievous Parrot.

An anecdote illustrates the sense of
humor which some parrots seem to pos
sess. Opposite the residence of Polls
owner, there were some buildings in
course of erection, and the men at the
top of the scaffold were in the habit of
calling to those below for such material
as they wanted. " More brick :" +" More
mortar and SO on.
In very short time, Polly had these
terms by heart, as we'll as the gruff
tones in which they were uttered. No
sooner did the Irish laborer relieve him
self of load than the everlasting cry
More mortar assailed his ears.
He bore it with exemplary patience
till the mortar board at the top of the
scaffold was piled up; but once more the
order for .Mortar-more mortar " was
given.
Then, to the delight of the parrots
master, who was standing by, the Irish
man flung down his bod, and making a
speaking trumpet of his hands, bawled
to the bricklayer above
SIS it mortar mad that We are :?

Where Do They Go.
[From the New York Evening Mail.


How strange it is that, considering
the millions of birds born every year,
dead ones are so seldom seen. To each
little songster III turn comes the tragedy
decay, death-yet, even in
the woods, it is rare to find dead bird.
Who buries them? One can find it in
ones heart to believe III the pathetic
robins of olden story, and turn up the
leaves to see if, perchance, some stray
feather may not betray the hidden maui
soleum. It's odious to think that they
have become the prey of others of their
species, or of enemies prowling in wait
for their hour of weakness. But nature
manages her affairs so we'll that doubt
less the obsequies are conducted with
order and regularity, and if we had but
eyes to see them we should find relics of
our songsters doing their part to feftil-
ize and enrich the scene of their brief
existence,

Romantic Origin of Charleston,

[Corres N. Y. Evening MALL
Beautiful as drama, tinged with
romance, cons6crated by tradition glori-
fed by history, rieing from the very
bosom of the waves, like fairy city
created by the enchanter's wand, Char
lesion affords fit theme for poet, nov
elist, historian and tourist. Thus, in
his description of Charleston, does it's
local historian, Arthur Mazyck, COM
mence an interesting sketch of the city
of his birth, and he further says that the
family names of the Cavaliers and
Hug1lenots still live to tell the origin Of
the people Moultrie still frowns above
the bay that resounded to the first can
non of the first revolution a hundreds
years ago; grim-visaged Sumter stands a
melancholy witness of heroic deeds of
later times. These are three salient
points that strike the mind as her history
is scanned.
Although Charleston was first settled
by the Cavaliers from England in 1869,
the revocation of the edict of Nantes
drove from France in 1856 q large
number of Huguenots who also settled
at Charleston and became an important
part of the population. The two ma
tlonalities did not take kindly to each
other at first, and for years there existed
no harmony between them. Common
dangers, however, necessitated COM
bined action and compelled all to work
together for the general good. Old diff
ferences were forgotten, friendship and
love took the place of anger and re-
venge, and by intermarrying the de-
scendants of the two are sometimes per-
picked and unable to tell whether their
ancestors were Huguenots or Cavaliers.
English names are found inscribed on
the walls of the Church of the
Huguenots to-day, and those of the
latter in the churches of st.
Michael and st. Phillip. Not all Of
French descent, however, in Charleston
are Huguenots, for there are many loya.
to the faith of their mother country, anC
it is an interesting fact that the pastor Of
the Huguenot Church is of Dutch de.
scent, and that he himself, Rev. Charles
S. Vedder, is q native of that good ole
Dutch city, Schenectady, In the state O.
New York. The present church was
dedicated in 1916, it is Gothic in archi
lecture and contains many beautiful
monuments on lis walls. The churche
of st. Michael and st. Philip, boil
Episcopal, possess great historical III
terest, and III the burial grounds sur
rounding rest the remains Of the mos
distinguished of Carolina sons. In tina
of st. Philip stands square brick tomb
covered with marble slab into which il
deeply cut one word, Calhoun. During
the late war the remains of the grea
statesman were removed for safety, blu
have since been returned to their origi
nal resting place

What ingenuity Does.

philadelphia Press N. Y letter.
Everyone has heard, [ suppose, of
Evans, the American dentist, who car
ries the city OF Paris in his coat pocket.
He was the emperor's protege, and he
has given European royalty more pain,
for cash, than any man in the world. He
operates in a dress suit, drives superb
horses, and lives in q wonderful mansion
that was given to him by Napoleon III.
Well, there is his like in New York Just
now. [ was riding through the park

called to a big, handsome man, sitting
with self-possession which did him

"He came here from California some
two or three years ago, with some con-
trivance for putting artificial teeth upon
natural roots, so that nothing could re-
move them without hauling out the
whole tooth. 1t is called the Richmond
crown setting, [ believe. The crack
dentists of the city went wild over it,
but he had patented the whole thing,
and had them where they couldn't move.
He came here with only a little money
and no practice. Now he employs seven
skilled workmen, has offices that are
simply palatial, and is enabled to sup
port the style you saw just now He

you what little ingenuity will do for q

concoction of wonderful explosive

A MILL SONG.

The mill wheel sings all day,
Yet Robin, the miller, has plenty Of time

But keep our secret sweet ;"
Yet somehow or other the lassies tell
Whenever we chance to meet
q loud and clear, o loud and clear,
The clack of the busy mill
Ihere's many gossip about fear,
Whose tongue runs faster still
The coat of my Robin is white with meal
That floats from the grain below,
And sometimes, it may be, his arm will steal
Where a sweetheart's arm may CO.
And the gown L wear is blue and dark
And bears token plain,
So the lassies they laugh at the dusty mark,
so, Janet, again, again!"
