SeaquIIs of Auchmithie.

In the fishing village of Auchmithie
you may frequently witness seagulls
flying into the houses of the fisher
men and partaking of food from their
hands. One of these sea birds was in
the habit of staying in a fisherman's s
house all the year round except at
the breeding season, when it left.
About q fortnight ago, while the gull
was away, the fisherman removed his
home some three and a half miles
from the former place.
The fisherman never expected to see
his old friend the gull again. 1t was
therefore, much to his astonishment
that he beheld on recent Sunday
the sea bird come walking into his
new residence with stately steps to
resume his old familiarities and house
hold ways.

A Fad Party.

Spoon crazes and monogram fan ep-
fdmeics have been succeeded by
rational and useful mania, for each
by; the more practical the better.
With this in mind a young hostess
sent out invitations asking each one
to come prepared to tell of her own
particular fad; If possible, to bring a
specimen, and be prepared to talk five
minutes about it.
1t was very interesting afternoon.
One lady had selected plates for her
specially and she brought a most
beautiful old Sevres piece that will
some day be worth a kings ransom
In her travels plates are always her
quest and her dining room testifies to
her success. Anniversary cups and
saucers was one woman's fad; as each
wedding day comes she adds an ex-
quisite cup to her collection. They
are for after-dinner coffee and show
off to advantage when she serves
black coffee in the drawing room.
prospective bride adds a towel to
her linen chest every trip she takes;
these she monograms in the colors of
her bedrooms to be. A dime bank was
the source of one guests finances
with which to indulge her fad of tea
pots many of these she bought at
auction shops. Handkerchiefs was the
pet hobby of dainty little maiden
dressed in blue, and she had them
from all over the world, besides many
fine creations of her own fair hands.
The intellectual girl confessed that
books were her particular weakness,
and she has many of them inscribed
with the authors name; also rare first
editions, and a splendid bookplate
drawn by famous illustrator she was
justly proud of.
Chinese carvings was another fad,
and rare Japanese and Chinese pottery
still another. Prints and engravings
were the special love of a lady who
nearly always wore gray, which ex-
actly matched her beautiful hair. All
this led up to the fact that every one
needed hobby, something to add zest
to ones journeys; occupy the mind,
and provide always a topic for enter
tanning conversation.

A Dangerous Roll.

H. Engels, an Oakland, Cal, boiler
maker, met with an experience which
nearly cost him his life, while at work
inside 2S-inch water pipe The line
of pipe ran along a steep hillside and
was held in position by wooden sup
ports. While Engel was riveting two
sections together the supports gave
way and the section in which he was
working started down the hill at a ter
rife speed. 1t rolled several hundred
feet and finally dropped into ditch in
which a stream of water was running.
Engels' companion supposed, of course,
that he had been killed, but rushed to
the ditch. The in-piped man was
taken out alive, but seriously cut and
bruised and almost rowned.-Detroit
