Artists Anachronisms.

Some years ago there was exhibited
I'm London a beautiful picture OF an
eighteenth century interior, perfect in
every detail but one. for on a wall OF
the interior was a small picture OF a
very UP to date locomotive, and in the
same year the writer saw among the
academy pictures presentment or
cavalier, evidently waiting impatiently
for his lady to keep the tryst, consult
ing watch which would have done
credit to a twentieth century watch
maker, while on another canvas pen
insular veteran, who was fighting his
battles over again for the benefit Of adj
miring rusticS at the village inn. was
wearing an unmistakable Victoria cross
about forty years before this badge or
valor came into existence:
In his magnificent picture in the
Royal Exchange of scared Londoners
escaping in boats from the horrors of
the great fire of 1866 Stanhope Forbes

is said. the Thames has never known,

Acufe Vision of Birds.

Birds have very acute vision-per'
haps the most acute Of any creature
and the sense is almost more widely
diffused over the retina than Is the case
with man; consequently bird can see
objects sideways as we'll as in front OF
It. A bird sees-showing great uneasi-
ness in consequence hawk long be-
fore 1t is visible to man. So, too, fowls
and pigeons find minute scraps Of food,
distinguishing them from what appear
to us exactly similar pieces Of earth
or gravel. Young chickens are also
able to find their own food, knowing
It's position and how distant 1t Is as
soon as they are Matched, whereas a
child only very gradually learnf either
to see or to understand the distance OF
an object. Several birds-apparently
! the young Of all those that nest on the
ground-can see quite we'll directly
they come out of the shell, but the
young of birds that nest in trees or on
rocks are born blind and have to be
fed.-Chambers' Journal.

Knew What He Was Doing.

The affability Of candidate for par
liamentary honors has great effect
and many a vote Is secured by means
Of 1t. But it would seem that effusive
ness and affability are sometimes in
dulged in for quite different reason
when men are woOing constituency
An incident in an east end election
proved this. One of the candidates
was extremely gushing. and the cleo,
ton agent. when in conversation with
a keen supporter, said:
at is a grand idea, that Of Mr.. -.
He is not only not satisfied with shak-
ing hands with the voters in the ordi-
nary way, but whenever he meets them
he grabs both hands and shakes them
effusively."

don't you think that that's rather over
doing it?'
"Well. it may look like that" return
ed the agent, but Mr.. - knows his
business. and he knows that so long aS
he holds on to both Of their hands his
watch is safe."-London Tit-Bits.

President For n Day

David r. Atchison of Missouri had
the unique honor Of being president OF
the United States for one day, and that
was Sunday, March 4, 1S49. The term
of James X. Polk expired on the morn
ing of that day. but, as it was Sunday
the president elect, General Zachary
Taylor. was not inaugurated until next
day. March >. In consequence the pres
ident pro TEN. of the United States

he had presided ut night session OF
the senate. which lasted until away
after midnight of Saturday, and he
slept nearly all day Sunday. without
realizing the fact that he was presi
dent of the United States.

Fiction In History.

Thomas Carlyle in his history Of the
French revolution gives description
of naval battle June 1, 1904, off
Brest between Villaret-Joyeuse, in
command of the French fleet, and Adj
miral Howe, in which he wildly de-
picted the sinking of the Vengeur.
These are the concluding sentences:
"Lo. all flags, streamers, jacks, every
rag Of tricolor that will yet run on
rope flies rustling aloft; the whole crew
crowds to the upper deck, and with
universal. soul maddening yell shouts,
'Vive la republique! sinking, sinking.
She staggers, she lurches. her last
drunk whirl. Ocean yawns abysmal;
down rushes the Vengeur. carrying
'Vive la republiquev along with her,
unconquerable, into eternity"
Rear Admiral Griffiths, at the time a
lieutenant on board the Culloden,
wrote to newspaper to show that
Carlyle's account had no foundation in
fact. After investigation Carlyle adj
mitted that not word Of this thrilling
story was true except that the Vengeur
sank.
