The AbboteburY swannery.

Some interesting particulars are
given in the London Magazine Of
the Abbotsbury swanuery, which is
stated to be the largest in Great
Britain This is situated on the
Fleet, long stretch of braekish
water lying within The Chesil Beach,
near Weymouth. Tradition holds
that this swanncry is over 500 years
old, and there is documentary evil
dence that it existed in the time Of
the Tudors.
On stretch Of low marshy
ground adjoining the Fleet the
swans assemble in March and April
for nesting, and last spring there
were over 400 nests placed closely
? together, the entire ewanncry con
tanning $50 birds. The birds pair
for life, in that respect resembling
the carrion crow, this being the
most meriiorious point in the natu-
raj history Of that not very popular
bird
Although each Of the 400 nests
Of Abbotsbury contains on an aver
age six eggs, Of which four or FIVE
are halchcd, so greut ia the waste
Of life among the Young cygnets
that only thirty or forty new birds
are added 10 the flock each year.

Saint Narg $ Beacon,
NEGROES WITH A BRoGUE.
Curious Linguistic Phenomenon In
West Indian Island.

West Indian Island.
The islands of Martinique, st.
Vincent, Barbados, Montserrat, st.
Lucia and Guadeloupe, besides af-
fording an illimitable field for the
study Of seismology, constitute IN
themselves one Of the greatest eth
biological curiosity shops in the
world, SO that he who visits these
islands may stand prepared for
surprise at every turn. One of the
strangest chronological freaks is to
be found on the island of Montser-
rat. This island is one of the Oldest
British colonies in America and was
first settled by Irish emigrants from
Connaught. Subsequently negro
slaves were introduced in the island,
whose descendants form the bulk of
its present population, for here as
elsewhere in the Antilles the white
man seems to have died out and
disappeared, leaving the negro in
undisputed possession Of the soil.
The negro slaves imported from
Africa in 1913 learned the English
language from the Irish settlers and
planters, and in consequence they
do this day speak the Irish brogue
with the same breadth of accent as
the people of Kerry or Donegal.
An amusing and true story is re-
lated of an Irish saddler who some
few years ago engaged to an English
firm having large sugar planta-
lions in Montserrat to 90 to that
island in its employ. The ship
on which he made the voyage hav-
ing reached the roadstead of the
capital of the colony, number OF
negroes swarmed about the ship in
their lighters soliciting carrying
custom.
One of them addressed the Irish
saddler in his native Connaught
brogue. The latter in surprise
asked, Thunder and turf, how
long hov yez been here?' The negro,
thinking he meant the length Of
time he had been living in that par
ticular part Of the island, replied,
"Three months" "Thrcc months 2"
exclaimed the Irishman. "Thrce
months, and so black already? BE
the powers Oil not SHAY among
yez anither day." The Irishmm, in
spite Of all explanation and persua-
sion, returned to ireland, declaring
that $1,000 per day would not
suffice to induce him to remain in a
country where the suns rays we're
powerful enough to burn a white
man black in less than three
months

The Teeth.

To keep the teeth perfectly clean
brush thoroughly night and morn
ing, using pure dentifrice, and
rinse the mouth after every meal
with an antiseptic lotion, also using
the quill toothpick to remove par
ticles of food. The brush should be
used up and down on the teeth, as
this allows the bristlcs to pass be-
tween the teeth, and it is also less
likely to injure the gums The in
side of the teeth should receive
the same treatment as the outside,
and the contact surface Of the mo-
lars should be thoroughly scrubbed.
Never pick the teeth with any metal
implement; do not crack nuts with
them or bite threads. Extremes Of
temperature in food or drink should
be avoided. Hot soup should not
be followed by iced water or ice
cream by hot coffee.

a HIGH TENOR.
Anna Louise cary's Unsuspected Part
In a Cat Duet.


The late Anna Louise Cary once
figured in an amusing incident at
one of the monthly meetings Of the
Boston Clef club. The club was
composed exclusively of men all in
terested directly or indirectly in
music, and at the meetings the best
of entertainment was always pro-
vided by the members themselves.
Among these were the two brothers,
VIII and John Winch, who at this
time were in great demand owing
to their beautiful voices. Viii
Winch possessed magnificent bass
and John an equally fine tenor On
the occasion in question their con-
tribution to the evenings entertain
ment was a novel composition OF
their own, a supposed duet between
an old, world experienced tomcat
and his hot headed, impatient son,
who had fallen hopelessly in love
with a sleek tabby. of the neighbor-
hood.
Seating themselves on the edge Of
the platform on which stood moth
ING save an ordinary japanese
screen, the two singers began their
amusing performance, which opened
with a stern upbraiding Of the
youthful back fence prowler by
his more prudent and experienced
father. The reply was given by the
tenor, who, breaking forth into an
| impassioned love song, poured forth
his whole soul in the praise Of his
mistress and of the divine passion.
Having reached the highest tone
of his voice, Winch struck a single
falsetto note, and then followed a
series OF the purest, the most bea'
| tiful. birdlike notes to which Il
/ dumfounded hearers had ever lis
tened. And still the wonderful
voice scared upward. A moment
and tie final height was reached,
and the song abruptly ceased. From
behind the screen a woman's laugh
ing face appeared-that Of Anna
| Louise Cary-and the mystery was
one no longer, II was she who had
carried on the song from the mo-
ment of the striking Of the falsetto
note, and so well had the deception
been carried out that not one OF
those present had doubted that he
was stiIl listening to the voice Of
John Winch.-New York Post,

The Elrr, Ere extInnulshers.

The earliest mention of fire eX-
tinguishing apparatus Of any kind
is found in the building accounts
of the city Of Augsburg, Germany,
for the year 1913. In these they
are denominated instruments for
fires" and water sYrInges useful at
fires" Anthony Blatner, a gold
smith at Fricsberg, is credited with
being the inventor and manufac-
turer, he having at that time be-
come a citizen Of Augsburg.
These syringes must have been
of considerable size, as they are de-
scribed as being mounted on wheels
and worked by levers. Caspar
Schott, noted Jesuit, gives an ac-
count of one built at Nuremberg in
1867, the largest squirting engine
of which there is any record 1t
was mounted on sledge 10 feet
long, 4 feet in width and drawn
by two horses. II had two work
ing cylinders placed horizontally in
the cistern, which was s feet long, 4
feet high and 2 feet wide. Twenty
eight men we're required to work it,
and it was capable of throwing a
jet of water one inch in diameter to
a height of eighty feet.

Enrouahty Pronounced Daisy.

Pronunciation Of English proper
names is a marvel of inconsistency,
but there is an American family,
Virginian, that outstrips such Eng
lish vagaries as CholmondeIey, pros
nounced CHUNKY, and Beauchamp
Beecham. The Virginia name is
spelled Enroughty and pronounced
Darby. The story goes that a GER
tain country squire Of the name Of
Darby was left a fortune upon the
condition that he change his name
to Enroughty. He agreed to do this
and thereafter wrote his name En-.
roughly. His friends, however,
continued to call him Darby, and
the custom has been handed down
from generation to generation.
