CEYLON BUTTERFLIES.
A Travellers Visit to Their Breeding

Grounds
"It has always been a great puzzle
to naturalists," says the Westminster
Budget, where the Ceylon butterflies
go at a certain time of year. You
see them flying over your house and
garden in thousands and tens of thou
sands in one direction, towards the
north. This goes on for six weeks or
two months, and then they all disap-
pear. Once, when travelling with my
sister in the north of the island, we
came to lonely station, and while
breakfast was being prepared we went
for a walk in the jungle. When we
got about two hundred yards in we
heard curious sound, like a soft, low,
continuous whistle. 1t is never over
safe to go too far into jungle, and
strange sounds are apt to make you
hesitate for a moment. 1 asked my
sister to stay behind, and crawled
slowly on in the direction whence the
sound proceeded, and there, in an
opening in the jungle, found myself
surrounded by one solid mass of
brown and yellow butterflies. They
were assembled by the hundreds and
thousands over a large square, and
ten feet high from the ground. So
dense was this fluttering mass of in
sects that you could have taken them
by armfuls had you been so minded.
The sound proceeded from the move
ment of the innumerable wings. No
doubt the jungle was their breeding

Ancestry of Literary Geniuses.

Swinburne is descendant of Celtic
and Scandinavian stock. Tennyson
seems to have been equally of Danish
extraction and Plantagenet ancestry,
with slight mixture of French blood.
William Morris is a descendant of
Welsh and Anglo-Danish stock. Robert
Browning's great-grandfather, who
was of Welsh-Saxon origin, married a
Creole, while the poets mother was of
German and Scotch parentage. Ros-
setti was twenty-five per cent. En-
glish and northern blood mingled
with his Italian ancestry. The COM
mingling of races in the literary
geniuses of Francois more remarka-
BILE still. The grandmother of the
senior Dumas was black woman of
st. Domingo. Flaubert had Iroquois
blood in his veins. The father of Vic
tor Hugo came of the Germans of Lor-
raiue. Greek, French and Italian
blood exists in Zola; his father was an
Italian mathematician. Ibsen is Of
German and Scandinavian ancestry,
intermixed with Scotch.

A DUCKS SENSE OF DIRECTION.
The Fowl Is Not as Dull as Is Commonly
Supposed.

According to James Payne, who
writes in the Illustrated London News,
the duck has been supposed to be the
dullest of all birds, so much so as to
reply in the affirmative to the invita-
ton: ''Dilly, dilly, come and be killed"
A correspondent in New Zealand sup
plies me, however, with an anecdote
to the contrary:
81 live on the shore of the harbor,
and have a friend who dwells on the
opposite shore eleven miles from me in
straight line. He lives up narrow
creek, and in coming to my place he
has to pass a number of other creeks
on either side, then several islands and
finally to cross a stretch of open water
about four miles across, where swift
tide runs and where there is often a
heavy sea. A few weeks ago this
friend came to see me and brought
with him as present a common drake
which had been bred on his place and
had never been hundred yards from
the house. 1t came over in the bottom
of the boat, where it could see nothing
but the sky, with it's legs tied. When
he gave it to me I turned it adrift with
my own ducks and thought no more
about it, and, in fact, never saw it
again. When I saw my friend, how
ever, some time after, he told me that
on the morning after his visit to me he
was awakened by a great commotion
and quacking in his duckyard, and on
going out to see what was the matter
he saw the drake which he had brought
over to me waddling up to the in
closure in rather travel-worn condi-
ton, while his brethren were welcom-
ing him as one restored to them from
the dead"
Considering what this drake accom-
plished, my correspondent justly con-
siders his achievement entitled to be
coupled with that of the other circum-
navigator, his namesake.

Wanted a Bonnet to Match.

Friend-It is costing you more to
make over that old dress than it would
cost to buy a new one.
Mrs. Managem Ia smart woman)-I
am not trying to save money. am
trying to make it.
"What?"
"You are not married yet, you know.
When my husband sees me in this dress
he'll think It's new one, and he'll
have regular fit about woman's ex-
travagance, and declare that I'm driv-
ing him to wreck and ruin, and ought
to be ashamed of myself"
81 shouldn't wonder"
"Yes. Then l will tell him that this
Is an old dress made over, and all these
trimmings and furbelows are to cover
up stains. and tears, and threadbare
places in the miserable old rag"
"Oh, that's it."

and cheap, and disgusting, that he'll
give me fifty dollars for a new bonnet. :"

Woman's exceeding fondness for

Forced to pause for a moment near q

A TRuSrY GUARDIAN.
The Remarkable Intelligence of an Eng
lish Mastif;

More than forty years ago, in 1851,
visited a party of friends in the Ben
digo gold fields in Australia, where
was cordially welcomed. Among the
valued possessions of my friends, says
writer in st. Nicholas, was an Eng
lish mastiff, which belonged to one OF
she gentlemen.
The good understanding between
myself and the mastiff appeared to
have become so well established dur
ing the evening, that on the next day
l left the claim where my friends were
at work to fetch a kettle of tea from
the tent, without the least misgivings
as to my reception by him.
Rex" who was always allowed to
run loose, came forward to meet me.
He allowed me to stroke his head, and,
so far as could see, showed no inter
est in my movements as l entered the
tent and took drink of the tea. But,
when started to leave the tent with
the kettle in my hand, imagine my as
tonishment when l saw the supposed
friend Rex facing me, and showing his
teeth in a very threatening way.
put down the kettle, seated myself on
the edge of the campbell and spoke to
him. He wagged his tail and looked
SO friendly that thought l must have
made a mistake about his intentions.
Not at all The moment attempted
to leave the tent with the kettle, had
reason to know that Rex's broad
grin was no mere notion, but, on the
contrary, real sign that he was true
to his trust as he understood it.
talked to him again, set down the
kettle, and attempted to leave without
it. Still Rex objected. He had his
doubts, and determined to give his
masters the benefit of them. There was
no help for it; I was held prisoner, and
could do nothing but sit down and
wait patiently for one of the party to
come to my relief. No one came until
nearly an hour later, by which time
my long absence had caused my
friends to suspect that was being
held prisoner by Rex. bore the dog
no grudge for his faithful zeal, and in
a few days found he would let me come
and go, and take whatever wished.
