vote the money to pay the interest on
the bonds voted the Carriage Co. Any

wishes in this matter to the aldermen

Common Sense In Exercise.

Exercise in itself is no doubt excel
lent, but is it we'll for a sane man to
make it fetish? Does it do a bust
ness man any good to swell the mus
Giles of his back by wrestling with a
rowing machine or to make his legs as
hard as railroad ties by galloping about
a canvas track? Is there any advan-
tage, after all, in developing the sinews
abnormally? Does a man who works
with his brain gain anything by try
ing to initiate a hodcarrier? The no.
ton that the average business man
will be benefited by developing the
muscles of a stevedOre is based on
nothing more tangible than wild theor-
izing. In favor of it is the allegation
that physical or brute strength spells
health. Against it is the obvious and
undOubted fact that millions of men
who take no more exercise than their
ordinary avOcatiOns require live to hale
and hearty old age, and the further
fact that. the average athlete, for all
his sinew and vigor, is seldom more
healthy than the average desk slave or
soft muscled man.-BaltimOre Herald.

Paris is on ration, like a besieged
city. Each person receives from his
section a bakers card and is thereby
entitled to receive from the baker at
the maximum price as much bread as
the municipals consider sufficient for
him and his family. This ration varies
weekly. The baker is bound to calcu-
late from the number of mouths he
feeds the quantity of corn he will need
to buy from the municipals, who dis
tribute it weekly. We, who are not
obliged to faire queue at the bakers
doors-thanks to my employ, I am ex-
empt from this. and bare sutfciency
of bread is delivered, together with
meat and vegetables, at my lodging

ulated in different sections, but my

to go, are often waiting from 4 o'clock

The Melancholy Cuckoo.

The American cuckoo belongs to the
woodpecker tribe and is only a sum-
mer visitor, coming about the list of
June and leaving early in the fall for
Florida. Unlike the English cuckoo,
ours builds its own nest and raises its
young, to whom it is a most devoted
parent We have two species in this
country-the yellow bill and the black
bill, the latter being best known in
Pennsylvania. Both are smaller than
the old world species and differ from it
in color, being greenish olive above
and BLUSH white beneath, while the
European bird is black winged. The
American cuckoo has a tail longer than
its body, which gives it a hawklike APP
pearance, and the plumage is soft and
silky, like that of the owl, which ena-
bles it to fly without making any
noise, so that we often hear it's call
without being able to see the bird.
Burroughs says, This call of the cuck-
90 has a solitary, hermitlike sound, as
If the bird were alone in the world and
called on the fates to witness his des-
olation.'' He has never heard the call
answered, nor has he ever seen two
birds together. The call is heard most
in cloudy weather and before a rain,
from which the bird gets the name Of
rain crow.

BLEAK SHETLAND.
It's svvarms of Sea GuIIs and Its Lone
Tree.

Up a little lane off Lerwick's one
street there is garden. At least. it is
an inclosed space. In the middle Of
this space there is a tree. 1t is not a
very tall tree; you could, in fact, toss
a biscuit over its branches, but still it
is a tree-the only tree in Shetland.
And Shetland is proud of it. Children
who are brought for the first time to
see the wonders of one streeted Ler-
wick are shown this tree. This is not
fiction. It is the only tree in Shetland.
AS there are no trees in Shetland,
there are no birds, except, of course,
the sea gulls, which you can number
by the thousand. The sea gullS are the
sparrows of Lerwick and, as such,
they have a greater share in the towns
life than have the sparrows of London
In the morning time you will note that
a sea gull sits on every chimney pot
Sea gulls swoop and hover over every
roof in the town.
The air is full of their strange, high,
plaintive, haunting cries. Their sad,
shrill, long drawn cries are to Lerwick
as the chatterng of sparrows or the
cawing of rocks are to us in England.
Every house has its own familiar sea
gulls and every street its own band of
sea gulls. They never mix. The chill
dren in each house have a pet name for
their Cwn particular sea gulls, and,
having called them to them by those
names. they feed them every day. And
each sea gull knows what is meant for
him. No sea gull attached to one house
ever seeks to eat the food scattered
from the house next door He does not
dare; the other gulls would kill him.
So all day long the sea gulls hover and
call over the roofs of Lerwick. The
people of the town, if they come across
little pile of rice laid upon the road.
way, step over it with care. They
know that it is placed there for some
sea gull. And at night the sea gulls
leave their own appointed chimney
pots and fly gracefully away TO their
resting places on the rocks Of the Isle
Of Noss.-Iondon Express.
