The Butcher Bird.

I have learned many new things about
the habits Of the peculiar butcher bird. A
pair of them have followed me while plow-
ing for three or four days at a time, watch
ing and waiting for me to overturn a nest
of field mice.
When overturn a nest, they will pounce
down upon the little mice and claw and
peck them to death. Then the mouse car
cases IRE carried away to some neighbour
ing orang or lemon tree and spiked upon
the thorns. The birds seldom eat the mice,
but kill them from sheer love of excite.
ment. When they car spike a live mouse,
or even a rat, on q thorn, theyflutter about
and chatter with themselves, as if they had
great fun in seeing the rodents squirm and
twist In the throes Of death.
But l UNI most surprised to see how
strong butcher birds are, and what they
can lift and fly away with. l have often
seen toads that had been impaled upon the
thorns Of n century plant upon my place
and left to die. TIL other morning l saw d
butcher bird with a snake fully u foot long.
He had it by the back OF the neck and flew
with it up into an orange tree. He then
nailed the reptile onto Il thorn and sat
and watched it. He let the snake wrig,
glcalmost off, when he few ut it and would
fix it on mere firmly. Because these birds
are destructive to gophers and rats they
are considered the friends of the orange
grower.-San Francisco Examiner.

Deceivins His Employer.

Holman Hunt, who began life as
clerk to an auctiOneer and estate agent,
was constantly drawing portraits when
he should have been drawing up leases,
and in his chosen profession, he was
never slow to seize the flying moment
Il won't buy your oranges" he said to
an old woman who had entered the
office in search of a customer, but I'll
paint your portrait" Old Hannah was
delighted, and thereupon she was put
on paper in her habit as she lived, her
basket on her head and an orange in
her hand.
But one incident of this tedious vet
ambitious period of the artists life
never ceased to afford him amusement
The windows in his room were made
of ground glass, and as he had little to
do, he spent much of his time in draw
ing flies upon it's rOughened surface. A
blot of ink sufficed for the body, and
some delicate pencil strokes for the
wings, and at a distance the deception
was pefect
Day by day the number increased,
and one morning his employer came in,
stopped before the window and ex-
claimed:
Il can't make out how it iS! Every
day that [ come into this room there
seem to be more and more fliesr' and
taking out his handkerchief, he at.
tempted to brush them away.

only half closed, pushed 1t open and

There was no one there except u large

Can this be his house?" asked Alice.

And in truth the hall was beautifully
clean. Not grain of dust furnished
the carefully waxed floor nor the old

The Broken Arm.

1t is easy to forget how much chill
dren have to learn, and how the OBJ
vious facts of life and experience may
be to them mysteries the most pro-
found. So it happens frequently that
true stories sound impossible, and of
this class is perhaps a thing which a
little Boston girl said last summer to
her mother.
She was only three years old, and
she had had no experience in the mat
ter of broken limbs beyond that af-
forded by the casualties in her family
of dolls. She had the misfortune to
fall and break her own arm, and as
soon as she discovered what had hap.
pened to her she cried out:

mo, darling" the mother answered;
81 will hold it so that it will not hurt
you till the doctor comes, and he will
fix it all right"
"Wen, mamma" the little one said,

be brave, do hold on tight, so that the

strange SIX Tresa of Panama.

One of the greatest curiosities OF the
Panama isthmus is the vegetable silk
tree. 1t is plant that grows from
fifteen to twenty feet high, and in APP
pearance does not differ greatly from
other trees but in the inner bark is u
perfectly silky fiber, long, smooth and
strong. The natives separate 1t by
some method best known to them
selves, the process somewhat resem-
bling that of beating flax, When once
it is separated and spun into threads
it can be woven into fabric so closely
resembling silk that it Is difficult for
any one not familiar with it to dis
tinguish between the two. This species
of silk goods is In high favor on the
isthmus, and a Colombian belle Is
never happier than when she is arrayed
in a gaily colored dress made from the
trees in her fathers yard.-Globe-Dem'

lmpeIs Him to Tell How His
Son Was Saved


There are very important evidences
of internal heat derived from the uni
versal phenomenon of a fairly uniform
increase of temperature in all deep
wells, mines, borings or tunnels. This
increase has been usually reckoned as
1 deg. Fahrenheit for each sixty feet
of descent, but a recent very careful
estimate by Prof. Prestwitch, derived
from the whole of the available data,
gives 1 deg. Fahrenheit to every 47.5
feet of descent. 1t is a curious indica-
ton of the universally of this increase
that even in the coolest parts of Sibe-
ria, where the soil is frozen to a depth
of $40 feet, there is a steady increase
in the temperature of this frozen soil
from the surface downward.
