Among The beautiful things of
earth, are the hands that do kind
acts for all about them. No eye
is so beautiful, as the one that
drops tear of sympathy over the
sins aud frailties of the tempted /;
and The sweetest voice is The one
that speaks kind words to the for
saken. These little things will
spring up in your pathway like
amaranthine flowers that shed
their beauty and fragrance over
lilies pathway, and ever light up
the portals of The grave.

SO he took Rawlius' pony, and

reported Rawlins TO the pretty
girl.
Isn't it horrible ~ shuddered
the pretty girl in reply.
The next morning the pretty girl
and her gnarled and twisted aunt
paid The injured Watkins a visit.
This 81 ght so affected the other
three cowboys that they at once
saddIed and rode away to the
northwest to work some cattle on
The Ocale Mesa. They intended
tn be gone three months. They
looked black and forbidJing as
they galloped away.
ITS a pity Jack Moore amt no

picture of the pretty girl visiting
The wounded Watkins arose in
his mind.

others.
The pretty girl was full of SYM
pathy for The stricken Watkins. 1t
occurred to her, too, that his pro-
file was clear and handsome. He
was certainly very pale, and this
stirred The depths of her feminine
nature. She and her aunt cam TO

the pretty girl said she would

tone Of deepest shame. II never

expressed a deep sigh.
Watkins lied. 1t was he who
was the Princeton man. He said
afterward that this lie was the on.
ly real good work he ever did.
So the pretty girl came every
day and gave Watkins a reading
lesson. while the gnarled aunt read
a book and watched them through
The open door.
by the way said Watkins one
day, "where'S Moore Z"
"Why" asked The range boss, 10
whom the question was put.
"You tell him." said Watkins,
his eyes beginning to gather rage,

The ARsctIonate Whale.

No other member of the animal king
dom displays more maternal affection
than the whale, especially if its calf is
harpooned. The barpooner never throws
bis harpoon into the little one with the
intention Of killing it, for if this is done
the mother will instantly forsake it. IL
alive and struggling, however, the dam
can he easily enticed toward the boat
meet its fate. Knowing this. the whale
fishermen always strike a calf if possible
and thus often make captures that could
not be effected under othercrcumstanees
As soon as the dam becomes aware OF
the snaring of her young she rushes
toward it, encourages it to swim away,
and even assists by taking it under her
fin. She seems to lose all regard for her
own safety, and boldly attacks the boat
containing the whalemen, or circles
about it totally regardless of the harpoons
that are hurled at herand enter her flesh.
Captain Scoresby relates a striking in
stance of this affection. One of his har.
pooners struck a sucker, as the calves
are generally called, and in a few mo.
ments the mother rose close to the boat.
Seizlng the young one she dragged out OF
the boat about 600 feet of the line aud
disappeared beneath the water. Rising
again she darted furiously to and fro.
frequently stopping short and suddenly
changing her direction. For long time
she acted in this manner, and SO solicit
GUS was she for the welfare of her off
spring that she seemed totally oblivious
to any danger to herself. One of the
boats finally approached near enough TO
allow harpoon to be thrown at the dam.
After two failures one of the instruments
struck her, but she made no attempt to
escape, but on the contrary allowed three
other boats to gather about her, and was
eventually killed without any further
resistance
Other authorities claim that in some
instances the females desert their calves
in order to save themselves, but this az.
sertion has never been proved beyond
contradiction, the fact being well estab.
lished that only in isolated cases has this
been observed by either scientist or
whalemen.

The subject presents itself under many
different forms. Geographically consid.
cred, it lies somewhere below whatever
may happen to be the southern boundary
of Russia, both in Europe and in Western
Asia. Politically, it is the sick man
who disappoints the predictions of his
doctors and the expectations of his heirs.
Gastronomically, it has been a source of
enjoyment to many generations of New
Englanders, especially near the end of
November.
All these aspects of turkey" are of
interest in their time and place, but it is
with the history of the name as borne by
the fowl that we purpose to deal now.
The domestic fowl of that name is a lin
eal descendant from the wild North
American species. which was found in
Mexico by the Spaniards at the time of
the conquest, both wild and domesticated.
The Spanish sailors and soldiers intro
duced it into the West India Islands un-
der the name of pavon, or peacock.
From the West Indies the bird was
taken to Spain. where it was called pa
Won de las Indias. The French called it
dindon, contraction of cog d. Inde.
Evidently the East Indies were con-
founded with the West. for when this
fowl was introduced into Germany it
was known as the "Calicut hen"
Major w. Ross King says that the
bird was introduced into England about
1920 to 1924, and that it received the
name which ID has since borne simply
because it was then the custom to refer
the origin of all strange and foreign arti-
cles to Turkey. 1t would not be at all
surprising to find all the trade with
Mediterranean ports at that time credited
TO that country.
Readers will recall how, in the time OF
the Crusades, few centuries before. it
had been the practice to speak of all no
hammedan people as Saracens, while the
fact was that that people were but small
tribe in Arabia. The instances are quite
parallel
When the fowl was brought to this
country, its original home, it kept the
name which had been given it in Eng.
land, and, more than that, it gave this
name to the undomesticated variety.
which has since been known as the
wild turkey. The circle was completed,
and bird that belonged exclusively to
this continent, without having gone
away from its home at all, got credit for
having been brought from the East. 1t
is good example of the confusion OF
names likely to occur almost auvwhera.
