New Zealand,

New Zealand is the interesting coun-
try to which economists refer when
they wish to prove any old thing.
1t is situated a good ways from any
where.
In New Zealand political corruption
is unknown, and yet it is unfair to
conclude from this that the people
there don't know much.
There are no very. rich persons in
New Zealand, and while there are
newspapers, these necessarily contain
no society column in the true sense.
New Zealand has no submerged
tenth, no help problem, and no trusts.
But there is the weather, and stom-
ach troubles are beginning to come in,
so that conversation can be kept up
Many educated New Zealanders
think imperially, but the masses still
fancy Aristotle bigger man than Joe
Chamberlain and cling superstitiously
to the old categories.-Puck.

An Owls Love for Music.

I'm my sons junior year at HaT.
vard," says John Burroughs, the nat
uralist, "it became the custom in May
and June to give frequent band con-
certs in the evening on the steps Of
University hall. Exactly over the band
was fagpole, fastened at a angle to
the building. On the gilded ball of the
fiagpole there would come and perch,
soon after the concert began, little
screech owl. After the music ceased
and the crowd dispersed the little owl
would fly away again. SO regularly
did the owl come with his noiseless.
muffied fight that my son came to look
for him and to speculate how long the
band would have played before he
would be attracted by the music. Many
persons saw him. yet he appeared to
take no notice of the yard full Of peo-
pie. but seemed to enjoy the music,
as far as his attitude and actions be-
trayed his feelings, as much as did
any one. Certainly the love for music,
so strong in man, must find it's begin
ming in lower forms of life"

Most Extraordinary Pearl.

The most extraordinary pearl-or,
rather, cluster of pearls-known as
''the Southern Cross"-is owned by. a
syndicate of Australian gentlemen,
who value it at 100000. So far as is
known, it occupies an absolutely
unique position. 1t consists of nine
pearls, naturally grown together in so
regular a manner as to form a perfect
Latin cross. The pearl was discovered
by a pearl fisher at Roebourne, West
Australia. The first owner regarded it
with so much superstition that he
buried it; but it was discovered in
1874, and placed on exhibition
