Millions of Gulls.

We are to witness one more Of the northern
curiosities before arriving at the North cape
There is a certain high cliff called -SvaerhOlt
klubben," where thousands. almost millions
of gulls cOngregate. The face Of the rock is
covered with small crevices and projections,
where the birds perch in rows, looking like
so many white pearls against the dark stone
A shot from the steamer creates some excite

take wing and fly, screaming and scolding:
above the vessel There are so many in the
air at once that they form a sort Of white
cloud, and one has a feeling that on all sides
great flakes of snow are falling and being
whirlrd along by some heavy gust OF wind.
A second and third shot from the cannon re-
ceive 10 further notice, and the birds slowly
settle back into their former resting placef
and undisturbed quiet.

Whitaker being entirely of the same

Pretty Eyebrows.

The dash of Orientalism in costume
and lace now turns the lady's atten-
ton to her eyelashes, which are worth
less if not long and dropping. Indeed
so prevalent is the desire for this beau
tiful feature that hair-dressers and
ladies' artists have scores of customers
under treatment for invigorating their
stunted eyelashes and eyebrows. To
be sure, tor evening a lady can manu-
facture magnificent article with a
crayon of Egyptian black or common

TOO LATE.

What silence we keep year after year,
With those who are most near TO US and
dear;
We live beside each other day by day,
And speak of myriad things, but seldom
say
The full, sweet word that lies just in our
reach,
Beneath the commonplace of common
speech.
Then out Of sight and out of reach they GO
These close familiar friends who loved US
so:
And sitting In the shadow they have left,
Alone, with loneliness, and sore bereft,
We think with vain regret OF some fond
word
That once we might have said and they
have heard.
For weak and poor the love that we ex-
Now seems beside the vast, sweet unex-
pressed,
And slight the deeds we did, to those un-
done.
And small the service spent, to treasure
won,
And undeserved the praise, for word and
deed.
That should have overlooked the simple
need.

Full visioned only when the ministry
OF death has been fulfilled, and in the place
of some dear presence is but empty space,
What recollected services can then

Anecdote Concerning Principal Fab
rique.

AnecdOte Concerning Brthcipai ran
rique.
One OF the most interesting anecdotes
concerning Principal Charles Fabrique
of the Russell Military School in New
Haven, occurred while he was an in
structor in the celebrated preparatory
school at Ellington. thirty years ago.
Even then he possessed a clairvOyant
knowledge of human nature, and could
SINGLE out a culprit at a glance. One
night he discovered that a plot had
been arranged among the lads in the
school for hauling an old stage coach,
which had been used for the accommO-
dation Of the pupils, half-a-mile away
and sinking 1t in the mill pond. Mr.
Fabrique secreted himself during the
evening in the body of the coach and
awaited the arrival of the lads. Not
far from midnight they were heard de-
scending from windows in their rooms,
and soon afterwards rendezvoused in
the neighbOrhood of the building. The
doors were opened without noise and
the old coach rolled out from its place.
Not one of the boys. however, thought
of looking inside. The tug was hard
one. but after an hour work, the We
hicle was at the edge of the pond.
just as the lads were preparing for a
wild jubilee, Principal Fabrique opened
the coach door and stepped out among
them. Had the earth parted at their
feet. they would not have been more
astonished. You can now draw me
back. calmly observed Mr.. Fabrique
The lads bent to the task with a will.
