ate Bird an inhabitant of the tropical seas,
is the swiftest bird that flies. 1t has been
impossible to calculate its rate of flight
within fixed limits. The pectoral muscles
are immensely developed and weigh nearly
one-fourth as much as the whole body of the
bird Another rapid flyer is the common

the great speed it attains is about 21G miles

"eYes FOR THE BLIND"

Not wholly sad dear youth, thy hapless lot,
Love circles near with gently fluttering wings;
Sweet music whispers from the echoing strings,
"Blest in her smile he all thy loss forgot"
Her soft hand leads through dell and messy grot;
She draws from grief and woe their ranking
stings;
Paints for thy inner sight the soul Of things,
And finds joys scmblaucc where itself Is not.
At her command blue lake and lcaping r
CLEAN on the dnrkcned canvas of thy brain;
Brave forests rise along the crested hill;
Fair roses bloom untouched by cauker stain;
The summers subtest essences distill
Ncpcnthe draughts to hull thee from thy pain.

bishop of the diocese Of Detroit, has for a
