Kirchiz Munic.

One of the Kirghiz came into my
tent, and, squatting down, began to play
the kauniuss, three stringed instrC-
ment played with the fingers. Tbs
music was plonotonous and of a melan-
choly cadence. but it harmonized well
with the surrounding and the moods
they inspired. In word, it was typic-
ally Asiatic. | sat and listened to it
with pleasure, giving my imagination
captive to the music, the soft moaning
of the night wind, the gentle crackle of
the fire. How many and many a night
did not spend thus during the long
years that followed listening to the
dreamy sounds of that primitive Kir-
ghiZ instrument
How many dark, solitary winter
afternoon did | not while away in this
foolish fashion! In course of time l
grew accustomed to the kaumuss and
derived as much pleasure from it as the
Kirghiz did themselves. In fact, grew
fond Of it. Its soothing music carried
my mind away into the fairy realms of
day dreams My thoughts flew far away
to my home amid the dark pine woods

Two Pointed Questions Answered.
What is the use of making bet
ter article than your competitor if
you can get better price for it.
Ans--As there is no difference IN
the price the public will buy only the
better, so that while our profits may
be smaller on a single sale they will
be much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to
know your make is the best?
If both articles are brought prompt
ly before the public both are certain
to be tried and the public will very
quickly pass judgement on them and
use only the better one.

over 800 lifeboats on the shores of the

lifeboat service was established in 1865,
and has So stations. while it has been
the means OF saving over 500 vessels

The French service has one great ad-
vantage over ours. 1t is that the public

established, consequently relieving the

The FlyIng Fox.

The flying fox is a very cue1ous In
babitart of the forest near Moreton Cay,
In east Australia 1t lives in f1ocks and
moves generally toward the dusk OF the
evening, and the noise produced by the
heavy Tapping of the so called wings is
very singular. The flocks like quiet
places, where there are large araucarian
nine trees, with an underwood OF scrub
and creepers. The foxes hang in vast
numbers from horizontal branches OF
the pine trees.
When there is a clear space among
the trees, an enormous number of the
animals may be seen, and their noise
can be heard, for directly they see any
thing unusual they utter a short bark,
something like the sound made by young
rocks. Often every branch is crowded,
and the young foxes are seen either flap
ping their wings and holding on with
their hind feet and with their heads
downward or snarling and fighting for
places.
Suddenly the whole take to flight
and flap their furry, winglike sides and
wheel around like heavy birds. Many
fly with their young holding on to them.
The creature is not a true fox, and
there is a fold of skin which reaches
from the fore to the hind legs. This is
called the wing, and it enables the
pteropus, as the animal is called, to
float and turn in the air. ir.-Philadelphia
