SEA GUlLS' SHARP EYES.
Their Dexterity in Seeing and Picking Up
What They Need.

"Any one who has watched the gulls
and other fish-catching birds along our
coast must have discovered how keen
is their sight and how cunningly they
discover school of fish long before n
fin has disturbed the surface of the
water" said sea captain. "Often-
times when at sea / have tested the
vision of gulls that happened near my
ship, to the great amusement of the
passengers. l remember one occasion
when the ship was going along at a
pretty rapid rate noticed a number of
gulls following closely in our wake,
apparently on the watch for anything
that might be thrown overheard.
Going to the cabin l procured small
biscuit, and returning to the deck, pre-
pared to show the passengers the Won
derful power of vision possessed by
these birds. Breaking the biscuit into
small pieces, the largest of which was
less than an inch square, | dropped one
into the seething waters, just under
the bow of the vessel. 1t was of the
same color as the foam into which it
was dropped, and it was, of course,
rapidly carried astern. Once dropped,
the piece was utterly invisible to our
eyes, and we could only guess as to its
whereabouts; but before it had fallen
thirty yards astern large gull de-
tected it, and with headlcng dart
dipped into the foam and secured it.
With equal dexterity the other bits
were picked up one by one, the gulls
at last venturing so close to the vessel
that they seemed to be watching our
movements with their large bright
eyes."-Harper's Young People.
MUcH As we dislike trouble we are sell
dom willing to admit that anybody else has
as much as onrselvss.-Young Mems Era.

Euch You see it breaks in upon his
military manners; he says it has be-
come too monotonous, though don't
see that monotony has much to do
with sight; but he says that it is not
military. He told me to bring forty
nine years rations, but reckon that
amt necessary, for reckon I'll be en-
titled to hospital rations and deli.
cacies, won't |, while am patient?"
Surgeon Bildad, with broad smile.
which, by the way, broke and ran into
n broad laugh before he could speak
for Slippery had again adjusted his
hands to fit his pockets by that time
said, as soon as he could cast aside suf-
ficicnt levity to enable him to speak:
How is your appetite? What was your
occupation before coming here? Let
me see your tongue. How are you on
hereditary predispositions? Does your
esophagus need irrigating? How are
your corns? Can you usually walk the
top rail, or rider, as it is called, of a
worm fence, with agility and a steady
gait? Does anything hurt you bad?
Do you have to scratch much? Do
your hands keep their places when
you are aslcep?" and various other
questions, but of mach less Importance
than the foregoing, and after taking
in the situation, he told the patient to
| be seated for few moments until he
could think the matter over and write
out prescription. That suited Slip
perry pretty well, for he had been seat
ed in the surgeons office before many
times engaged in social chat with the
doctor and others. Slippery was so
quaint and original in his converse
tion that Surgeon Biidad and, indeed
all the other officers and men, and the
sutler, too, were always glad to lay
aside rank and file and associate with
him when off duty.
The result of the surgeons delibera-
tions was the following prescription,
which he told Slippery to take to the
hospital steward, and have him com
pound it:
Rx.-Sew-um pocket pants up um
No. l.
Make um pocket coat tail um No. l.
NJ. S.-USe as directed. BMDAD.
The directions given to Slippery
by the surgeon were to put his pocket
knife, his fine-tooth comb, his mar.
bles, etc, in the coat-tail pockets, and
try to keep his hands in his pants
pockets
Well, the prescription worked ad
mirably; but for awhile it made Slip
perry look more ludicrous than ever
for his hands would slide down over
his sides like mud turtles slipping off
bank into puddle. In time Slip
perry gained some control over hi:
hands, but he was often puzzled tc
know what to do with them, or where
to put or keep them.

objection can be largely overcome by
limiting the amount of food and com
pelling exercise. Being good grazers.
they should be allowed unrestricted
run of pasturage and no corn or other
fattening food until it is desired to
finish them off. On the other hand,
their tendency to fatten is great
recommendation where roasting pigs
are desired. The meat can oe made fit
for pork at any age, from month up
ward. In England these hogs are
marketed in great numbers when from
five to eight months old, for light fam
lily pork, and for that purpose there
are none better.-N. Y. World.
