The retirement IF W. Ii. Fisher from

was the central figure. Mr.. Fisher.

this that the representatives OF every
department Of the road, twenty
four in number, assembled at
Magee'S restaurant, and presented
him with an elegant silver service.
w. A. Barr made the presentation
speech and in it voiced the regard in
which Mr.. Fisher was held by all, ex-

turned his thanks in feeling terms for
the testimonial. He complimented the
conductors of the road for their fidelity
to duty, and the engineers for the 10y

THE ISLAND or BIRDS.
Peculiarities Of q Little Isle Of which
Little Is Generally Known.

PeculiarIties Of a Little Isle Of which
Little Is Generally Known.
The Island OF Birds-for such, il has
been coniectured, is the meaning of the
word ~"Foula"--is not so frequently Wis
tied by the tourist as il deserves to be.
Situated at a distance Of fifteen miles
from the nearest part of the mainland Of
Shetland, its cloudlike form, which
seems 10 float or the horizon, is visible
from every hill top Of any importance in
the archipelago.
The eye Of the observer Of the pictur-
esque, as it glides along the distant pros
pect, Is caught by the fine bold peaks Of
Foula, and returns again and again from
its general survey 10 gaze fondly on that
island as the finest feature Of the Gene.
Nor is it only at a distance that il looks
grand.
The cliffs on the west side, which are
beaten by waves which have rolled with.
out a check all the way from Greenland,
are the loftiest in the British Isles. The
highest hill is the Sneuk, which has an
altitude Of over thirteen hundred feet
above the sea. Another peak, almost as
high, confronts the ocean as a stupendous
precipice FROM summit TO base. These
crags are the homes Of innumerable sea
fowl, the norie or sea parrot and the
kittiwake being most abundant.
On the east side the rocks are
lively low, but not uninteresting. On
the north there are some remarkable
stacks, or isolated rocks. one Of them
being pierced by a lofty Gothic archway,
and another surmounted by a ruin. The
hollow center Of the island affords peat,
and the grassy slopes at the back Of the
cliffs afford good pasturage for cattle and
sheep and a number Of handsome ponies.
The population numbers 270, and, with
the exception Of three families, Is engaged
In crofting and fishing. The Foulaese
are masters Of many trades. They make
their own turning lathes and spinning
wheels. Some a repair clocks and
watches; all can make and cobble shoes.
A few are weavers and %tailors, as well as
dyerA. Every man Is n mason. The wo-
men clip, and, ! am afraid, sometimes
roo OF pluck the sheep. They spin the
wool and knit excellent stockings and
sailors frocks or Jerseys. ] believe II q
Foulaman were 10 be placed naked on a
desert coast with nothing In his possess
ion but n clasp knife he would not only
contriyc 10 find food for his support, but
In q short time would, by his unaided ef-
forts, be provided with clothes, with n
house having a clock on the walls and
with a boat and fishing tackle.

woman they call ''cloven foode" or
''hemelte, " a parson is an ~''upstander,"
and the church is a ''bone house" and
SO on.
To use a land word in a boat is certain
TO brighten away the fish. A copper coin
is nailed on every keel to prevent the
''brigdy" (which is the Danish name for
the basking shark) from sucking the boat
10 the bottom. Aworsted thread having
nine knots On it is tied around a joint
when il is sprained.
Sick cows are cured by drawing a
tom cat by the tail over their backs. Ii
a minister or a person with Hat feet
crosses the path of a man going out fish
ing no fish will be got. To accidentally
wet the feet when stepping into the boat
is a favorable sign. A cat should never
be mentioned when a man is batting his
line.
A rusty nail from n coffin will cure
the toothache if used as q toothpick, and
a sip of water from an old kneepan is a
sovereign remedy for some disorders. To
catch a halibut for bait the fishermen put
nine pieces Of peat into a kettle above the
fire before proceeding to sea.
A hen should be set when the tide is
flowing, and an egg should be placed
among the seed corn before it is Owl
When a sheep is being slaughtered in
doors no woman should pass between it
and the fire. Stacks should be built and
the ground dug according to the apparent
course of the sun. Boats always take q
turn sunward before going to sea.-Lon-
don World.

The Barber Shops Of Europe.

The comparison between the barber
shop Of America and the barber shop of
Europe is the comparison between a pal
ace and a hovel. Luxury in a barber
shop across the water, even in Paris, is
an unknown quantity. The American
barber aims TO make his shop as attract
i've, his chairs as luxurious and comfort
able as possible. In decorations and fit.
ting up generally many shops in America
are exceedingly artistic. In Europe
things are different. An American Wis
iting Paris or London, on placing him
self in the hands Of a native barber, will
at once sigh for the land of his birth, and
would even onjoy the gossip Of his
American barber.
In the provincial towns and cities of
Germany a barber is an institution. He
is a dignitary TO some extent. The head
barber never shaves a man. lie hires
assistants to do that. He must be q
surgeon and a dentist. he pulls teeth,
cups and leeches, cuts off a leg or
arm if necessary, but he never draws n
razor across a customers face. The head
BARRIERS assistants start out with their
shaving outfits early in the morning and
do the shaving right at the homes Of
customers, who make a contract for n
year to be shaved so many times a week
for S much-generally about $40 is the
price. Customers must he at home when
the barber calls or they will not be shaved
until the next trip. There are very few
shops and very poor ones in Germany.
The European on visiting America is
astounded at the luxury, the artistic ar.
rangement and general elegance of the
American barber shop .-George Werner
