answered Anthony. They believe in the
lord Of evil even II they think 1t con-
venient to forget the other side of the
question:
Lady Editha replied In quite an afEec-
tionate strain. saying that nobody had
deplored more than herself the unhappy
difference Of opinion in the family, but
that before consenting to meeting she
must have 1t clearly laid down that all
arrears should be paid up. No one would
have suspected that this eminently prac-
teal stroke Of business was guided by her
daughter.
cammarleigh on reading this letter
in a tone Of studied carelessness that
that was the end OF the matter, as 1t was
evidently impossible to conciliate people
who refused to listen to reason.
'On the contrary, said Anthony. Il
think your sisters is a very reasonable
request. You would hardly like to feel
that you had done her out of lump
sum Of money
Cammarieigh began to buster and rave,
which did not disturb Anthony at all.
Think what an excellent impression
you are making on your sister and your
niece. 1 am quite sure that when they
see you they will declare that you are
much softened."

'Well. your sister will say so-the i'm
agination is exceedingly prompt to respond
to financial suggestion"
Poor Cammarleigh. who knew his sister,
did his best to wriggle out Of inviting her
to his house. but Anthony. who had by
this time made himself acquainted with
Cammarleigh's family history, knew that
1t was essential, II he hoped to make
Cammarleigh a social lever. that he
should be as quickly as possible on terms
of friendship with his relations.
Smiled on by Lady Editha. who would
find that everything was made up to her

be easy to get on terms with the rest of

Milk for School Children.
From the Municipal Journal.

A very commendable feature has jus,
been introduced into several German
schools. Automats were placed In the
courtyards. which for a small coin deliver
hot or cold milk.
First. one procures a cup which falls
out Of an opening ana which is made of
waterproof strong paper; then a pedal is
pressed down and the cup Is filled with
pure milk at any desired temperature.
Heating is done inside entirely auto
maticaIly by liquid fuel.
The cleansing and rinsing Of the tubes
and tanks through which the milk runs is
also effected automatically. The success
with these patented automats has been
very great and they will be installed in
many more schools OF the German en-

South American inns.
From the PHILADELPHIA Record.

A traveller who recently returned to
Philadelphia was narrating some of his
experiences in South America at a BAN
quet OF globe trotters the other evening.
He had skirted the entire coast OF South
America and had found the inns or hotels
in most sections very poor. So bad were
they in Peru. he said. that one American,
who had been thrown into jail pending
some dispute over his papers and after
his release had sought the hotel Of the
town, returned the next day to the Jail
and begged that he might be taken in

A power greater than that Of kings

gather to make this choice. and when q
decision has been reached the. LESSONS are
handed out to the printers and by them
literally scattered over the planet. The
Word thus goes forth not In one but In
scores Of languages. Europe and Africa,

There is a supply for Hawaii. Japan ana

TALKS ON BIRDS
Reported by

The work intended especially for the
third grade comprises the group known
as the seed-eating birds, and the en-
blem for this grade and group is the
mourning dove. In arranging work for
this grade, it seemed best TO push the
game birds farther forward-for more
advanced pupils-and to make usa of a
group that would be accessible to the
younger ones. The birds which go to
make up this group have a further adj
vantage. as suitable objects of study
for this grade, in that many of them
are residents. 1t is thus possible to
observe them at different seasons
moreover, they are widely distributed
in our state, end so furnish material
for work in the various localities.
The grouping here used is not of the
hard and fast order. Birds will be in

ming of the song is of a character to
give emphasis to this impression. The
/ first note is always a sort of catching
the breath: All, cO-cO-cO-cO-co-co. 1t
| seems to me that the birds are trying
to express the sentiment which the
great poet uttered when he wrote:
IT'S better to have loved and lost,
Than never to have loved at all.
This characteristic of the song seems
always to touch tender chords. Will
son, writing of it, says: The hopeless
woe of settled sorrow, swelling the
/ heart of female innocence itself, could
not assume tones more sad, more ten
der and affecting. Its notes are four;
| the first being somewhat the highest,
and preparatory, seeming to be uttered
with an inspiration of the breath, as if
| the afflicted creature were just recoV-
ering its voice from the convulsive
sobs of distress; this is followed by
three deep and mournful meanings
| that no person of sensibility can listen
TO without sympathy. A pause of a
! few moments ensues, and again the
| solemn voice of sorrow is renewed as
before" (American ORTHODOXY, Vol
II. p. 290).
| Someone has given us this bit, from
the Russian, as explaining the deep
seated sadness that lies back of the
song:
Stranger-Why mourning there so
sad. thou gentle dove?
DOye-I mourn, unceasing mourn, my
vanished love.
Stranger-What, has thy love then
fed, or faithless proved?
Doye-Ah. no! the sportsman wound

Stranger Unhappy one. beware! that

Dova-Oh, let him come-or else of

Their General Habits.
of the general habits of these birds,
there are many that might be consid-
cred, but reference can be made to only
few of them.
Even the most unObSerVant must
have noticed these birds in pairs or in
threes, along the highway, for one can
not walk far without being made
aware of the presence of mourning
doves. They have way of springing
up and taking wing in an unexpected
and nervous manner; then, if they are
not too seriously alarmed, they hest
tate, on wing, as if uncertain about
leaving. Their flight has jerky, ir-
regular movement; and if the bird de-
cides to remain. il will alight near. or
describe small circle ana return 10
the spot from which 1t was startled.
If, however, on wing it seems disposed
to go elsewhere, the flight is quick,
vigorous and always accompanied by a
peculiar whistling of the wings at the
outset. The doves seek the highways
for the double purpose of busting them
selves and of procuring gravel to aid
in grinding their food
This bird, in common with doves gen.
orally, has the graceful movement of
the head, forward and back, as it
walks. Like others of the feathered
tribe. these birds do not escape entirely
