Robin That Hanged Itself.

Do birds commit suicide? 1t would
seeH from circumstantial evidence
that they do. Recently while passing
large sycamore tree in the State
university grounds, says a writer In
Forest and Stream, l happened by
some chance to look up into the tree,
and there l saw II robin about twenty
feet from the ground hanging to. a
string BY tie neck. Each end of
the string was wrapped around limbs
about eighteen inches apart, and the
middle was wound around the robins
neck, so that 1t WAS hanging about
midway between the two limbs. l ut
first thought it was dead. but while
looking at it | saw its wings move,
when I rushed into the buildings, got
a ladder and soon had it rescued.
Its life was nearly gone. but after
little while it revived and flew
away. A partly built nest in the tree
would indicate that 1t was carrying a
string to put in with its building ma
terial. and in some way became en-
tangled in the string with the above
result

The Railway a Peacemn ,ser.

For preserving the peace in partly
civilized country n railway, according
to famous statesman, is worth more
than an army corps. Although the
railways which are building from
Haifa to Damascus, in Palestine, and
from Damascus southwark toward
Mecca, are primarily for military pur.
poses, they will open up a country
which was prosperous and fertile 1000
years ago, but has since become one
of the waste places of the earth. They
are already using American harvesting
machinery OIL the plains of Jezreel.

A CURIOUS OCCURRENCE.

Wee Willy Nilly ran gailv away
10 green grassy woods one line summer
day.
So weary she grew, the sweet little maid,
She lay down to rest in the cool, pleasant
shade.
Now what happened next is certainly
queer,
And sadly perp,exed the poor little dear,
But, strange though it be, | really can't
doubt it.
For Willy herself told me all about it.
She scarcely was settled, and taking her
ease,
When birds crcled round her in focks
from the trees,
While squirrels and rabbits and like quad.
rupeds
Stared solcmniy at her or stood on their
heads.
The birds chirped and chartered and aut-
tered their wings,
The "beasties" turne, handsprings and did
lots OF things.
At last a pert bunny climbed up on Il
And cried, willy Nilly is such sad
gump!"
Then wee Willy Niliy arose in dismay,
Determined to drive the rude rasca.s away
But, presto before she could speak, in her
fright,
The whole saucy circle quick vanished from
sight,

Victoria, Australia, is one of the col
onies which have not followed the lead
of the motherland in refusing to allow
a man to marry his deceased wife's sis
ter, but man in that colony cannot
marry his deceased wife's niece, such
marriage having been dissolved as
illegal. This does not mean that Vic
torla disapproves of such unions, but
when the law allowing the marriage of
deceased wives sisters was passed
nothing was said about the nieces.

At last in sheer exhaustion and dis
