Detected Through a Birds Note.
lFrom So stories.)


Trihes are ever leading TO unexpected results,
and an experience Of a certain musician affords
further instance Of the value OF noticing little
things.
The musician in question owned an ebony
flute with silver keys He valued il highly. but,
as. one OF the upper notes defective, he SCI
dom used it. 4 young man lodged with the
musician and between the two a close friend
ship existed.
one night the ebony flute disappeared having
no doubt been stolen. Suspicion fell on several
persons but nothing could be proved against
any OF them. Not long afterward the iodger
went to live in a town few miles of. but as
the friendship between the two men still existed
they occasionally visited each other.
Nearly a year afterward the musician paid
his friend a visit and was pleased 10 find MIN
in possession OF a beautiful bullhnch, which
could distinctly whistle three tunes. The per-
formance was perfect, with the exception that
whenever he came TO high note he lnyaria-
blv skipped it and went TO the next
A little reflection convinced the musician that
the note in which the bulfnch was imperfect
was the deficient note on his lost flute. So con-
viuced was he that he questioned the ex-l0dger
On the subject. The latter at once tTemblingiy
confessed his guilt, and added that all the bird
knew had been taught to him ON the stolen
instrument
