A Great Authority on Evolution.

A Great authority on EVOLUTION.
There is q sketch of "a Great Natu-
rallst," the late Edward Drinker Cope,
in the Century. 1t Is written by Henry
Fairfield Osborn. Prof. Osborn says:
His pioneer exploration came early IN
the age of Darwinism, when missing
links, not only In the human ancestry,
but in the greater chain Of backboned
animals, were ut the highest premium.
Thus he was fortunate in recording the
discovery in northwestern New Mexico
of by far the oldest quadrupeds known,
In finding among these the most ven
erable monkey, In describing to the
world hundreds of links.-in fact, whole
chains-of descent between the most
ancient quadrupeds and what we
please to call the higher types, especial
ly the horses, camels, tapirs, dogs and
cats. He labored successfully TO con,
meet the reptiles with the amphiblans,
and the latter with the fishes. and was
as quick as a flash to detect in the pa
per of another author the oversight Of
some long-sousht link which he had
been awaiting. Thus in losing him we
have lost our ablestand most discerning
critic. No one has made such profuse
and overwhelming demonstration of
the actual historical working of the
laws of evolution, his popular reputa-
ton perhaps resting most widely upon
his practical and speculative studies

A Wonderful Timepiece.

An American traveller in Japan once
saw rare and wonderful Japanese
timepiece, says the jewelers. Review.
He described it as being in frame
three feet wide and five feet long, rep
resenting MONDAY landscape of
great loveliness. In the foreground
were plum and cherry trees and rich
plants in full bloom, in the rear hill
gradual in ascent, from which flowed,
or seemed to flow, cascade, admir-
ably initiated in crystal. From this
point threadlike stream glided along
encircling rocks and islands in its
windings, finally losing itself in far
off stretch of woodland. In nina
ture sky above golden sun turned on
a silver wire, striking the hours on
silver gongs as it passed. Each hour
was marked ON the frame, and indi-
Gated by slowly creeping tortoise,
which servedin the place of hand or
pointer. A bird of exquisite plumage
sang at the close of each hour, and as
the song ceased mouse sprang from
a grotto near by and scampering over
the hill in the garden, was soon lost
to view.

Hector and His Family.

A few years ago, when living in a
state in the northwest corner of the
United States, we bought o pair of
fine bronze turkeys-thoroughbreds.
We named them Hector and And
romache. The names, perhaps, may
account for Hector's deeds. Needless
to say, they were very devoted
couple. In due time Andromache laid
some nice eggs. The first were given
to an old hen; and aboutthe time these
were Matched, Andromache concluded
to have family of her own. Slyly
hiding her nest in an old brush pile
she laid some beautiful eggs, and for
some time it was thought she had
been carried off to furnish lunch for
some swell set Of coyotes. Hector,
however, serenely strutted and gobbled,
and was acknowledged lord and
monarch of the poultry yard. A hand
some and lordly fellow he was, too,
and well worthy Of his name, as he
proved.
One day he came strutting along,
followed by his meek wife and ten

President Adams Trees.

Thousands of Americans travel far
to visit the White House and walk
through its grounds, yet few of them
know one of the most interesting facts
connected with the place, that is that
John Quincy Adams, when he was
president, planted most of its fine
trees. President Adams was full of
energy; for months he made practice
of swimming across the Potomac every
day; then he took to walking around
the capitol square for an hour every
morning, then he found the best exer-
else OF all in attending to the planting
of the White House grounds with trees;
they were very bare in this respect,
and he went into the whole science
and art of plantation with an enthusi-
asm very like Sir Walter Scott's on
the same subject. He was then fifty
eight years old, but he wrote about
the growth of his oaks and chestnuts
as eagerly as schoolboy would about
hunting.

beautiful turkey babies. The sight
was one calculated to fill turkey
fathers heart with Joy. A home was
quickly improvised, and Andromache
and her babies established in it. The
home was large dry goods box, with
Stats nailed across the front. Alasl
one night, about week after occupy
ing this homes hungry coyote prowled
that way, and, tearing slat from the
box, in sight of Hector, the devoted
husband and father, he quickly seized
and ate nine of the babies, and, throw
ing Andromache over his shoulder, he
silently trotted away. In the morning
we gazed on pitiful sight "A desoate
home, and Hector, the gallant father,
hovering over his one remaining child
and protecting II from the rain and cold.
He faithfully devoted his whole time
to caring for his motherless child, en-
tirely forgetting his former occupation
OF strutting; nor did he once strut
again till the wee turkey was large
enough to fly up to roost. When the
hen who Matched out the first turkey
brood left them to shift for themselves
Hector adopted them, and for weeks
faithfully scratched for them or hunted
bugs from morn till night. At night
his broad wings protected them from
the cold. When the six adopted chill
dren were large enough to fly up to
roost Hector flew up with them, and,
taking the small turks on each side of
him, he carefully spread his broad
wings over them, his one wee child,
meantime, mournfully crying in the
corner, till some one came to tuck
him up beside his brothers and sisters.
Hector lived to good old turkey age,
finally resuming his former strutting
ways, and ended his days as is usual
with turkeys. Ys.--Outlook.

Daisy's Afternoon Ten.

Daisy didn't quite know what to do.
Mamma had headache, and wanted
to lie down, and had just asked her
to amuse herself for awhile, and had
given her penny to spend at the
grocery store.
Daisy thoughtfor some time as to how
she should "amuse herself" At last
she said, 81 will give an afternoon
tea"
OFF Daisy trotted to the grocery
store. and with her penny bought
moist, sticky lump, twisted up in
brown paper, and the grocery man,
who was a great friend of Daisy's,
when he heard of the afternoon tea,
gave her handful of raisins besides.
Then she went home, and Della, the
eook, gave her glass of milk with
some cookies, and a big yellow banana.
Then Daisy took her own little
table and rocking chair out in the
shade under the big elm, and set the
table nicely with white cloth which
she had begged of Della, and beauti-
full bunch of flowers in the centre.
Then she spread out her refreshments
and sat down to wait for the company.
1t was some time before anyone
came. Finally, Daisy saw what she
supposed was her own Kittie Glover,
but it wasn't. 1t was strange kitty,
so poor and thin, and so scared and
shy that it was long while before
Daisy could coax her near to drink
some milk, but, when she did drink
she seemed to enjoy it so much that
Daisy was glad her own fat Kittie
Glover hadn't come to drink it up her.
self.
just as the kitty was nearing the
bottom of the glass, the arrival of q
new guest sent her running up the
elm tree as fast as she could go. The
new guest was Prince, just home from
n ramble, hot and hungry; and he
finished the milk with two laps of his
great tongue, and then ate cookies till
Daisy called him "a greedy dog" and
said he shouldn't have another one.
So Prince thought he would take q
nap under the trees.
Daisy waited little while longer,
and was thinking she wouldn't have
any more callers, when she saw a
weary couple coming down the road
man with hand organ, and tired,
dusty little monkey.
The man asked Daisy for drink, so
she ran in to Della for more milk and
cookies, and, while the man was en-
joying his lunch, the monkey perched
on the edge of the table, and ate the
big banana, piece by piece, from
Daisy's hands. Then the man played
some tunes on the hand organ, and
the monkey danced and did some
pretty tricks. He then politely lifted
his little red cap to Daisy, and held
out tiny paw for her to shake. The
man lifted his cap also, and they went
of down the road.
1t was almost night now, so Daisy
ate the moist, sticky lump and the
raisins herself. Then she ran in to
tell mamma about her first afternoon
tea, and how delighted all her guests
were. And mamma was as much
pleased as Daisy. sy.-Babyland.
