A Queer Pet.

Ny pet, writes Laura Schirmer.
Mapleson, in the New York Herald
is white rat, and his name is Dick,
Therel In imagination I can already
see scores of feminine noses tilted sky
ward, while scornful disdain is de-
picted sll over their pretty faces. But
I beseech them to control their feel
ings and compose their features while
we endeavor to reason together on the
subject. It is true that Dick is rat,
but it isn't his fault. he was born
that way, and he isn't a bit ashamed of
it, and neither am I. In. this enlight-
ened age and generation, on this side
of the Atlantic, at least, the mere &C.
cident of birth is no barrier to adj
vancement. The mere fact that Dick
happens to be rat instead of some
thing else is no sufficient reason why
he should be denied admission within
the charmed circle of petdom.
It will be conceded that the three
essential qualifications in pet are in
telligence, docility and amiabihty.
Dick possesses all these requisites in
eminent degree He knows more in
five minutes than most animals ten
times his size know in twelve months.
He knows enough to do what he is
told. He knows what to eat and what
to drink, and, above all, he knows
when he has had enough, and never

Mrs. Stebbins and Harriet Bevier then
placed their names opposite as witnesses
to the solemn transaction, and again
withdrew, after Mr.. Rappelye had de-
sired them to bid the coachman prepare
to carry DR.. Elfenstein back to the
depot, as he had declined passing the
night with them.
"When Snarl you be ready to leave for
England2" asked Mr.. Rappelye, as he
held his hand at parting.
"In about one weeks time think I
can settle my own affairs and arrange a
home for my mother during my absence.
I shall take the first steamer can, and
will come again to receive further in
structions before leave, if you wish it. "
u do; till then, my dear friend, au
revoir."
Thus ended an interview which was
destined to be the cause of bringing to
light events of the most startling char
acter, the development Of which would
place our hero amid scenes and circum-
stances so terrible and tragic in their
nature that could they have been fore
told might have caused many moments
of hesitation.

pany, and caressing each other with
their bills and necks in the most in
teresting manner, though, of course,
the male is the most powerful and
courageous Both birds help to pre-
pare the nest, the male chiefly gather
ing the materials, while the female
seems to take the chief part in the
actual construction.
ga swan s nest is an enormo Gus affair,
being built up of large mass of
coarse water plants as foundation,
which is lined with finer grasses. In
this six to nine eggs are generally
laid, which are, of course, very thick
in shell, and generally Of dirty white
color, sometimes dirty pale green.
The time of incubation has been diff
ferently stated, but we believe Bech-
stein to be right in fixing it at thirty
FIVE days, though some say forty-two.
The young when Matched are very
thickly covered with down, and are
generally taken TO the water by the
mother when only day or two old.

all that can be done is to give the old
birds little grain, and see that their
privacy is not disturbed whilst sitting.
Domestication would lemedy this,
and make the birds more amenable, to
reason and would increase the number
of eggs. Considering the size Of the
birds, the hardness of the young and
their excellent quality, it is much to
be wished that some serious attempt
should be made to breed them more
extensively for market purposes.
When Matched, if very wild, the cyg-
nets can be fed by throwing coarse
oatmeal or grits upon the water, or
soaked ground biscuit may be given in
the same manner; but if the old birds
are tame and familiar they will often
bring the brood to feed from trough
placed at the edge of the water, in
which the food should be placed, al
ways in water, as in feeding grain to
ducks. '.... ........

into the interior OF Africa for the purpose OF
studying the methods Of communication be-
tween the monkey tribes, in other words, to
learn the monkey language. has arrived at
Liverpool. on his return. He asserts that
he has established beyond doubt that there
is a monkey language, and that it can be
learned by man. He brought with him from
Africa two chimpanzees, with which he is
able TO communicate.
Professor Garner says that he lived lOl
days in cage, which he had carried into
the heart of forest. This cage was "a
massive affair that was chained to trees. In
it Professor Garner locked himself daily
and awaited the coming Of members OF the
ape family, when he would try to COM

.'The swans" says 'Wright's Book
of Poultry" ''like wild geese and
ducks, have very wide range, being
found in all but actually equatorial
regions. Two species at least are COM
mon to both Europe and America, be-
sides others more local in their char
acter: but Australia, as might have
been expected from its isolated po-
sition, has a we'll marked species of
it's own. Every race is naturally mi
gratory in its habits, though many in
dividuals will remain, especially in the
more temperate regions, in the same
localities throughout the year, only
taking short fights to and fro. Their
powers of flight are considerable when
once fairly raised in the air, but the
rising appears to be difficult and awk-
ward. They almost always, if not in
variably, rise from the water, striking
down with both wings and feet, and
thus proceeding, half flying and half
splashing, for some twenty or thirty
yards before they can fairly raise
themselves; after which, however,
they frequently attain great height;

MUTE OR WHITE SWAN.

ters as an ornamental bird, and 1s 8
native of Northern Asia and Europe.
It is the largest and most beautiful OF
all the swans, the neck being very
long and slender. The bill Is red,
and the large protuberance at the
base black; the eye brown, the legs
and feet brownish or blackish gray,
and the plumage all over pure and
spotless white. Its voice is very soft
and low, with a pleasing, melancholy
tone. Is is not mute, as it's name i'm
plies. The cygnets when Matched, and
for good while after, are gray.
The Whistling Swan would more
appropriately be called the Musical
Swan. The bill in this species wants
the protuberance of the Mute Swan,
and is yellow; it is also somewhat
smaller, and the neck is considerably
shorter and thicker than the Mute
Swan. Its beautiful voice alone is
enough to make its domestication
worth little trouble. ..
The Black Swan is the best known
next to the Mute Swan, having been
imported from Australia many years
back. The eyes are scarlet, the legs
black, the bill red, tipped with white ;
the plumsge is rather sooty black,
shading on the edges of many festh-
ers into very dark grey. In the long
and slender neck, and general outline,
it resembles the Mute Swan, but is
not quite 80 large. The Black Swan
breeds freely and the young are hardy.
They are established favorites on our
ornamental waters and.in the zoologi-
cal gardens.

called the Chilean swan. It is most

The Antiquity of Wigs.

A passage IL Polybius has been cited
to prove that Hannibal wore . wig.
They were probably invented about
the time of the first Roman emperor,
for we are told that Otho had scalp
of fine leather with locks of hair upon
it SO we'll arranged as to seem natural.
When wigs were introduced into Eng
land the clergy inveighed against
them as being indecent and unnatural,
and even cut their own hair shorter to
express their adherence ofthe fashion.
