The Languages OF Birds.

Shall we never master the languages
of beasts, as even the parrot and the star
ling will in their own automatic way
master portions of ours? To a certain
extent this has been accomplished. A
hunter tries to initiate by his .'calls" the
cries of the animals he is Turing to their
destruction, and is often successful in an
exact ratio TO his skill in this rough nc
quaintance with the speech of the lower
animals. Mr.. Henderson, an American
gunner, " has managed to set the cries
of some of the game birds in musical
notation. and finds that they are quite as
uniform rs are the same words spoken
by different persons. They have their
songs of love as well rs ordinations of
fear and defiance. The quail has one
set of notes when it is IA proud, happy,
and alTectionate father" and another
when in the autumn he is sounding the
''assembly" in order 20 tell the scattered
birds of the chosen rendezvous for the
covey. Every other bird has, in like
manner, language suitable for different
occasions, and the clever sportsman can
blVell tlaIN WIG luc biiuS Nilillu IdilEe.
Some songs, like some human Ian
guages, are more difficult than others.
The spotted sandpiper's is much easier
than that Of the yellow leg, while the
English snipe is a moody bird, which
speaks only in its unmusical squeak
when it is startled, and springs into
flight. Hence a musician can readily
write it down. The song birds-the
robins, the thrush, the nightingales, and
so forth-bave, however, a far more
complicated tongue, and Mr.. Cheney,
who has reported some of their melodies,
finds the task by no means simple. Some
of these songs are stereotyped, but on
more than one occasion the songsters
have been noticed TO extemporize when
the mood took them. For example,
the song often varies before and after
rain, in spring and autumn; while one Of
the redbreast's songs is 10 the same tune
as that to which the spinning girls sang
fifty years ago while Keeling their yarn.

Disadvantage. Of Color RIindness.

No man who has this defect should be
a physician. He cannot tell whether his
patient is flushed or pale. As was said
of one such: ''How should he know
whether this is scarlet fever9 lie never
saw scarlet in his life" Next 10 the ply
stefan the chemist is a dangerous man;
he must trust entirely to the labels on
his drugs; if they change color. and this
often indicates that they are deteriorat-
ing, he does not know, but still sends
them out with a cheerful mind. The
sick nurse is also disqualified, and forthe
same reason. After these come the rail-
way signal man. who reads the red dan
ger signal to stop as if it was the green,
commanding him 10 dash on. Then there
is the sailor who mistakes the starboard
for the port light Of a vessel sighted in
the night and reads into it a directly OPP
posite meaning from that it was meant
to convey.
II is a crime for the color blind to pur.
SHE any Of these c~allings when their de.
feet has been brought home TO them,
and there are other trades which it is
foolish in them TO follow, because they
"a compete with those who have
perfect vision. The tailor, the milliner,
the house painter, the dyer are instances
Of these. But more than half Of the
color blind live and die unaware Of their
defect; among those who are uneducated
it frequently passes for ignorance and
stupidity, or if known it is concealed as
a disadvantage by them, though in the
nature of things they are not aware Of
the mischief they may do through it,

The Man and the HOY.

Boys are quick 10 learn, and you have
only to get them interested in a thing to
teach them how to do it. When you set
them at a new piece of work, explain it
TO them. Tell them not only how to do
this or that thing, but why you do it.
Explain the reasons for il, and set them
TO thinking for themselves. Encourage
them TO be self reliant, and when they
have done anything well, give them the
credit TO which they are entitled. Treat
the boy as if he were man-for he is, on
a smaller scale than yourself-dhd he
will act like a man. Take him into your
confidence, and make a companion Of
him, and he will surprise you by his
manliness and his sensible ideas. These
ideas may be crude, but the germ of
sense is in them, and it is your duty to
assist in their development in every way,
Too many men make their boys feel
that they are Of little or no account
while they are boys. Lay a responsi
bility on a boy, and he will meet it in a
manful spirit. On no account ignore
their disposition to investigate. Help
them TO understand things. Encourage
them 70 know what they are about. We
are too apt to treat a boys seeking after
knowledge as mere idle curiosity. Don't
ask questions" is poor advice to boys. II
you]do not explain puzzling things to
them. you oblige them TO make expert
ments before they find out, and, though
experimental knowledge is best, in one
sense. in another il is not, for that which
can be explained clearly does not need
experimenting with. II the principle
involved is understood, there is no fur
ther trouble, and the boy can GO ahead

Railroad Building In New South Wales.

Railroad Building In New South Wales.
There was nothing else for il, SO l took
a pick and shovel and went to work on
the railway embankment, yea, ever as a
sub-contractor; that is TO say, the land
was just being cleared and burnt of and
my undertaking was TO take so many
claims, according TO the nature Of the
ground, at a price varying from ten
pence to fourteen pence per cubic yard;
the mulloek was 20 be dug and wheeled
TO form the embankment. In some
cases we met with rocks and other im-
pediments, and then we didn't dig at all.
We, my mates and myself, went to work
about sunrise in the summer, say ga. M,
and knocked off at sunset. We lived in
our own camp, a calico tent. cooked
our own tucker, when we had any,
drank water that you wouldn't drown a
dog in AZ home and had altogether aSan-
culinary jolly time of it. However, we
stuck on with the work and eventually
got to within sixteen miles Of Bourke,
when the water, feed and everything
else gave ont.
The weather was as hot as tophet thrice
heated, and the work for the time was
abandoned. And a very lively trip we
had of it down the fifty-flve miles of
back line. We had to carry water in
our canvas water bags. Out Of nine dogs
we had with us, six died from the heat,
and we ourselves were not too much
alive at the finish. | may here say that
during the eighteen months | wa work.
ing on the line the only vegetables /
tasted were dried apples, rice and bread;
the rest of our bill of fare was made up
of corned mutton, very occasionally;
canned fish, preserved mutton and beef,
and very rarely fresh beef. We also
consumed kangaroo when we could get
it. Sometimes we would poach a couple
of jumbucks Sheep, and TO show to
what a state they were reduced, ! have
