LONGEVITY OF BIRDS,
Swans. Falcons, Eagles and Ravens Live
Good Old Age.

Swans, Falcons, Eagles and Ravens Live to
a Good Old Age.
The swan is the longest-lived bird,
and it is asserted that it has reached
the age of three hundred years. Knauer,
In his work entitled "Naturhistoriker, ("
states that he has seen a falcon that
waS 1852 years old. The following ex-
amples are cited as to the longevity Of
the eagle and vulture: A sea eagle cap
tured in IT'S, and already several years
OF age, died 104 years afterward, in 1919;
a white-headed vulture, captured in
1706, died in 1926 in one of the av1aries
OF Schoenbrunn castle, near Vienna,
where it had passed 11s years IN cap
tivity.
Parroquets and ravens reach an age
OF over one hundred years. The life of
sea and marsh birds sometimes EQUALS
that of several human generations.
Like many other birds, magpies live to
be very old in state of freedom, but
do not reach over 30 or % years in cap
tivity. The domestic cock lives from Is
to 20 years, and the pigeon about 10.
The nightingale lives but 10 years in
captivity, and the blackbird Is. Canary
birds reach an age of from 10 to Is years
In the cage, but those flying at liberty
in their native islands reach a much

STRANGE DEPRAVfTY,

An Extraordinary Story Which Comes All
the Way from Smyrna.
few days back two Greeks present.
ed themselves at the palace of the grand
rabbi of Smyrna and asked to see him
on very important business. The ven.
cradle Abraham Palacci being unwell,
they were asked to como another day.
Next day they called again; the rabbi
not having yet recovered, his son, a man
of forty-fve, learning that their bust.
ness was urgent asked If they could not
explain it to him. After some desult0ry
conversation they consented, at the same
time requesting to be conducted to some
remote apartment where there was NO
danger of being overheard. This being
done, one of them said to him: every
one has his particular religion: we are
aware that part of yours is to offer at
Easter Christian child in sacrifice; now
we are ready, for the sum of 81, 400, t6
furnish you with fine, plump and
healthy Christian child, little Greek
girl four years old, for your sacrifice,
and the child shall be obtained in such
manner as to insure the most profound
secrecy" The rabbits son, as may well
be supposed, was thunderstruck at the
proposal, but he dissembled his feelings
and stated that before he could enter
into any definite arrangements with
them 1t was necessary he ould consult
his father. They having assented to
this, he withdrew to his fathers room
and briefly related to him the story OF
the grim proposal. Speaking in the He
brew tongue, for fear the men outside
should understand, the father told him
to dispatch messenger speedily to the
headquarters of the police, requesting
the chief of police to send i'm mediately
an officer with a body of gendarmes, and
then to go back and keep the Greeks,
under the pretense of discussing the
price of their crime. Emin Effendi
speedily answered the summons, and Old
the arrival of the zaptiehs the rabbi
posted them behind door concealed by
heavy curtain and sent word to his
son that the men had come, this mes
sage, like the previous one, being deliv-
cred in Hebrew. One of these individ-
uals asking what the man had said, MIS-
sim Palacci answered that his father,
although i'll, wished to see them. Ush-
cred into the presence of the rabbi, he
began asking them in Turkish. so that
the officials might understand the affair,
how and where they got the child. how
the sale was to be effected ami many
other particulars. The examination OF
the case satisfactorily concluded, he
whistled, the police came in. ana. hav-

to have got abroad and the police had to

The same sweet strains Of the long ago;
Over and over, each year are springing
Flowers where fadeth the winter snow;
Over and over. the ships go sailing,
Leagues ON leagues across the sea;
Over and over, when the day is paling,
Signs the breeze in the forest tree.
Over and over, do Joy and sorrow
Silently walk by US everywhere;
Over and over will each tomorrow
Bring its blessings or bring it's care;
Over and over the mother blesses
After each prayer golden head;
Over and over, her sweet caresses
Into each heart loves sunlight shed.
Over and over, we all are teaching
Daily our lessons of good or i'll;
Over and over, are pastors preaching
Words which speak of the Masters will;
Over and over. the sunset glories
Glow and vanish DER land and sea;
Over and over, to Grandma's stories
We listen, sitting beside her knee.

The Welded Woes Of victoria's Youngest
Son-in-Law.
What has become Of Prince Beatrice?
Did Battenberg strike and was he threat
ened? The other day met relative
OF his sister-in-law, the Countess Alex
ander Won Hartenau (you see what bad
company sometimes keep, who told
me that "the poor fellows To- is not to
be envied." The Queen, on whose favor
he depends, being now seventy, few
about the court take the trouble to be
civil to him. Military men don't at all
relish being told of to ATTEND" this
curious Royal Highness- Though the
Queen is exacting of respect for him,
she treats him herself with curt dry
ness. and she expects him to be always
hanging about the Princess Beatrice,
who since her marriage keeps as close
to her Majesty as her shadow, and Is
constantly getting up entertainments
for her royal mothers delectation, which
Prince B. thinks awful bores. He would
infinitely prefer friendly pipe and
fagon Of beer and war of words at q
Kaaeipe TO her tableaux wants, private
theatricals and concerts The concerts
are the most doleful things imaginable.
The Princess performs on the piano and
gets herself accompanied by other in
struments. She is particularly fond of
the violin, and has always some first
rate violinist to play with her. Prince
B. used to turn the leaves of her music
book when they were freshly married,
but he has since allowed lady or gen.
tleman in waiting to do that honora BILE
service, and sits near the musicians
seeming to listen, but more often than
not in brown study. If it were not for
the pleasures Of memory these concerts
would be uncomfortable. The Queen, who
loves music, is nearly always present
and sits by herself, with dusky per-
sonal attendant standing behind her
chair. She, too, is wrapped up, and no
doubt also passing mentally in review
her bygone pleasures. Whenever she
makes a sign to Prince B., he is on his
feet in an instant, walks over to her.
and stands before her in an atti tude of
submission. She would not put up with
any other. There never was a more
despotic sovereign in the precincts of
her court than our constitutional mon
arch, and her mind is so full of the be-
lief in her prerogatives, in all that re-
CARDS etiquette and the department OF
her family and household, that her will
overbears every other. One feels that
it is imperious as fate. Prince B. new
er attempts to dispute it until he gets
beyond its range. He then tries to make
new conditions and thus improve his
position At Gratz he thoroughly en-
joyed himself. There was smoking,
beer-drinking, capital music. in an un-
affected way, guard-room talk with Count
Won Hartenau and Austrian officers and
no etiquette. London Truth.

AFRICAN SPIRITUALlSTS.
A Strange Belief Existing In the Western
Part of tho Dark Continant

"A strange Be1ief Existing In the Western
Part of tho Dark Continent.
By all the tribes of these three lingual
groups the indwelling spirit is believed
to afford some protection to man. 1t
receives occasional thank offerings, and
the anniversary of each individuals
day of birth is held as a dav sacred to
the spiritual tenant. On this account
the kra may be regarded in some re-
spects as a guardian spirit, dwelling in
the body of the man; but 1t is more
than that. Its close connection with
the man himself is indicated by the fact
of it's nocturnal adventures during it's
absence from the body being remem-
bered by the man when he awakes.
The latter even feels physically the eff
fects of his kr0's actions; and when the
negro awakes from sleep feeling stiff
and unrefreshed, or with limbs aching
from muscular rheumatism, he in
variably attributes these symptoms to
the fact of his IRA having been engaged
In some struggle or some severe toll.
If, moreover, man dreams of other
men, he believes that his kr0 has met
theirs; consequently, the kra is held to
have the outward appearance of the
man whose body he tenants. Hence the
hr0 is more than mere tenantinr or
guardian spirit. He has, though doubt
less only in shadowy form, the very
shape and appearance of the man: and
both the mind and body Of the latter
are affected by and register the results
of the krd's actions. Major A. B. Ellis,
in Popular Science Monthly.
