The Baseiess Fabric of Dreams.

When a lady begins to dream dreams
and see visions. look out for her, for
there is no knowing what she will do.
know a young lady who is troubled with
q husband and a year-old baby, with
curly, golden hair. The other night she
had n dream. She dreamt that size was
dressing before the looking glass in the
back parlor. Looking into the front
parlor through the folding doors she be.
held her husband in much too earnest
conversation with two young ladies'. One
of the young ladies seemed greatly in.
terested in what he was saying and their
chairs gradually drew closer and closer
together till it came to pass that the
watcher on the other site Of the folding
doors observed her husbands arm steal
round the waist of the young lady,
This was more than the indignant wife
could stand, and she crept quietly behind
the preoccupied couple and aimed a slap
at the girl which would probably have
lifted her head from her shoulders So
powerful was it that it knocked the
whole scene completely out The
dreamer awoke. and so did her husband,
and likewise the baby. The gas was
turned up and revealed a very surprised
looking group. The baby was the most
surprised of all. The slap intended for
the dreamer's rival had alighted full on
the curly, golden head Of her son.

RnssIan Taste In Colors.

While our steamer was lying at the
landing at Kazan | noted a chocolate
brown house with yellow window shut
tiers and a green roof; a lavender house
with a shining tin roof; a crimson house
with an emerald roof; a sky blue house
with a red roof; an orange house with
an olive roof; a house painted a bright
metallic green all over; n house diversified
with dark blue, light blue, red green
and chocolate brown; and, finally, q
most extraordinary building which dis
played the whole chromatic scale within
the compass of three stories and an attic.
What permanent effect, II any, Is pro-
duced upon the optic nerves OF the in
habitants by the habitual contemplation
OF their brilliantly colored and sharply
contrasted dwellings | am unable to say;
but no longer wonder that ''prekrasni,"
the Russian word for beautiful" means
literally ''very red."-George KEENAN, in

BIRDS LEARNING TO SING.
A Common but Impression.
Several Interesting Gases.

A Common but rroneou Impression.
Several Interesting Gases.
Most people probably imagine that
birds sing by instinct; that the song of
the robin is as natural to him as his red
breast, that the blue bird is not more
liable to change its note than its color;
and that untaught, the nightingale will
always sing the same beautiful song.
This common impression, however, is
erroneous. Young birds will never sing
the song peculiar to their tribe if they
have never heard it, but If associated
with some other bird, will learn its song
instead. A redstart once built its nest
under the caves of a house where a Gagged
chaiiinch hung in a window underneath
The redstart learned the chafinch's song,
Another rcdstard was noticed 10 repeat
the notes Of a blackcap which had its
nest close by.
The winchat and wheatear have nat
urally but little variety of notes, but will
become much better songsters If confined
with other birds, and the bulliinch can
be taught to whistle complete tunes, al
though its own natural notes are harsh
and insignificant. On the other hand,
the nightingale in confinement will some
times exchange its own beautiful song
for that of some other bird that it may
hear. The Hon. DANES Darlington says
that he saw a linnet which had been
taken from the nest when only two OF
three days old. and which, not having
any other sounds 10 initiate. almost
learned to articulate, and could repeat
the words pretty boy and some other
short sentences. He educated nesting
linnets under the three best singing larks
the skylark, woodlark and titlark-
every one of which. instead Of the lin
nets song, adhered entirely to that of
their respective instructors. When the
note of the titlark was thoroughly fixed,
he hung the linnet which had learned it
in a room for three months with two
common linnets which were in full song
The educated linnet, however, never Dor.
rowed any passage from the other lin
nets, but adhered steadfastly to that of
the titlark which il had learned.
AT Knighton, in Radnorshire, he saw
a goldfinch which sung exactly like a
wren, and uttered no proper note of its
species. This bird had been taken from
the nest when it was two days old. and
was hang in a window opposite a small
garden, where it had, no doubt, heard
and learned the wren's song, having
had the opportunity to learn that
of the goldfnch. Birds taken from the
nest two or three weeks old have already
learned the call notes of their species.
These ard many similar facts cote prove
that birds do not sing by instinct. They
learn their songs from their parents. II
they have no opportunity of hearing the
song peculiar to their species, they never
sing it, but will learn any other instead;
just as an American child taken TO
France when a few weeks old would
never speak English if he never heard it,
but would learn to speak French. -Popu-

Depressing Effects Of Fear.

Few causes will more certainly impair

the habitual indulgence In imaginary
fears. When the system Is Frustrated by

which. In a measure, obstructs recovery.

Pastry as Wholesome as Toast.

People will eat hot buttered toast, and
give it to children and invalids, who will
tell you that they are quite careful about
diet, and eve think Of touching pastry.
The difference between the two articles
is as follows. Pastry Is flour and water
baked after butter has been rubbed into
il. Buttered toast is -four and water
baked first, and then rubbed thoroughly
with butter, The difference between
pastry and well buttered toast Is appar-
entity the difference between the pro-
verbal ''tweedledum and tweedledee."
l only mention toast as one instance Of
the articles of diet which people consider
comparatively simple and indulge IN
freely. Boston Transcript.

Cutting an Evil Doer.

All through the east II seems to be
tacitly understood that everybody has a
right to strike his interiors, and that IL
would be objectionable presumption in
the inferior to strike back or adopt any
more self assertive measure than edgng
away, As a general thing in Persia
blows are given and taken with the
bland and childlike philosophy of Kismet.
The person who knows himself to be in
the wrong on some trihing occasion re-
ceives a proportionatc amount Of chas-
usement meekly, as being no more than
his just desert, even though the party
who assumes the role of executioner be
a casual stranger, acting on the spur Of
prima facie evidence. What is the con-
Germ of n seems to be the concern of
all; not only the PARTY directly aggrieved.
but the onlookers also are very likely to
take a hand in cutting an evil doer. The
person who is thus publicly cufred feels
no sense Of disgrace. The whole matter
is regarded most philosophically; having
meteS out punishment TO an offender,
they hobnob with him again on equal
terms at once. Thomas Stevens in New
York Sun.

neither candid nor sincere When Horace
Davis declared that Mr.. Estee was a
Simon-pure anti-nionopolist, he INDUCED
in fapdoodle unbecoming the President of
The State University. Mr.. Estee is not an
anti-monopolist He is as much a monop-
olist as any man living in California. He
is just as willing to share the profit of a
monopolized enterprise as any man we
know of. He is not an anti railroad man,
and in our opinion never was. He is,
however, good citizen, and an enterpris-
ing, Woodworking, pains-taking lawyer and
vine-grower. He thoroughly loves his
State, and we admire and respect him. He
has not in the past been a good partisan,
and judging by the past, he is not now
He belongs distinctively to the class OF
people who are thoroughly good when
they have their own way. We have nc
fault to find with Mr.. Estee's past, present
or future, but we do sincerely deprecate
the meaningless talk which Mr.. Davis in
dulged in when placing him in nomination
and all the more because we know it wa
not sincere, since neither Mr.. Davis MOI
Mr. Estee is an anti-monopolist. They
are each and both in favor of covering il
their private treasures all that is in sight
| They each and both deserve to be rebukeC
when they indulge in insincere Aapdoodl,
and false pretense.
We are extremely proud of the manner
in which Mr.. Estee presided over the Ma
tional Convention. 1t was a distinc
honor, and we are happy that it was con
ferred upon q Californian. 1t could no
have been more worthily bestowed Thu
far California's delegation achieved dis
tinction; but beyond this, eve are forced t.
regard their adherence to Blaine as very
serious mistake.

The Australian Scale Destrovers

Professor c. V. Riley has written letter
to ID. w. Coquillett, of Los Angeles, con.
corning the search in Australia for the par
asites which are thought to be instrumental
in holding in check the cottonv cushion
scale. The following is an extract from
Professor Rileys letter:
ut strikes me that there is not the slight
est occasion for hurry in this matter, as the
proper time to start will not be before the
LIST of September at the earliest. | think
that there is no doubt that the Commits
sloner VIII be IN such position as to author
lie the sending of a Government agent
whose expenses will be paid either bv the
Department of State or by this department.
Moreover, there is still some chance for a
special clause authorizing this department
to send an agent on this special Trip. At
all events, as our appropriation bill has
passed the House, l feel that | have power.
and probably means, 10 do something, and
shall decide early in July. The probabili
ties are that | shall send either yourself or
koebele, and perhaps follow myself little
later"
We are glad that there is chance Of
Professor Rlleys taking personal share
in this investigation, and it seems to MS
that 1t would be fitting thing if our Gov
eminent entomologists could have oppor-
~ OOoSiNt tuc FAUNA In
its habitat. He has accomplished yerv
much by his visits to Europe, and should
have the fullest opportunities for observa-
ton elsewhere
Concerning the proper time for the work
OF the Australian mission, Professor Riley
writes:
The Australian spring corresponds with
our fall, and the proper time to study the
parasites in their active life will be our late
TALL or winter months. | do not mean by
this that it will be the best time to shin
them to California, because the probabili-
ties are that the best time for that will be
the season corresponding TO our spring. in
which event 1 should be in favor Of ar
ranging with some local agent there, or.
perhaps, leaving one of the party there
until spring
Professor Riley naturally takes deep in
terest in this matter, as it was at his request
that the parasites were sent to Mr.. Klee
and MIR. Coquillett. He welcomes, how
ever, the fullest cooperation of California
fruit-growers, and would be glad to have
Mr.. Craw participate in the enterprise, as
has been suggested. The whole enterprise
has promising look, and we trust moth
ing may occur to prevent its advancement
