In France.

In the Baltic provinces and through
out northern Germany and in Den
mark the stork is met with every
where during the summer months.

ing the other day from Danzig to
Marienberg 1 saw several in the fields
and on nests upon buildings quite
close to the railway. In Denmark.
however. it is less numerous, since
the draining of the morasses was be-
gun. 1t is still fairly common in Hol-
land and Belgium, but in France,
owing to it's being prosecuted and the
fact of none of the original race sur
yiving. it is seen only as bird of
passage. In Alsace and Lorraine its
better treatment is rewarded by
certain number remaining during the
summer to breed.
In passing through Savoy in April
and in the early autumn it meets with
heartless persecution, especially on
its return toward the south, when the
young birds are often much fatigued.
It occurs generally throughout Turkey
and is fairly common in Greece. 1t is
met with occasionally in central Italy
parts of Andalusia.
1t Is believed that on one of their
migrations which took place little
after the middle of last century the
white storks experienced some sort of
catastrophe, as they returned in great
ly reduced numbers, and ever since
then they have been considerably less
numerous than before. The periods
of migration with the storks are very
regular. They arrive in central Eu-
rope generally between March 19 and
20 and prepare to depart a about the
end of August. first congregating in
large bands, which break up as the
adult individuals come and collect the
young together to conduct them south
ward. 1t appears that they migrate in
large flocks. flying mostly by night.
The males and females, it is sup
posed. migrate separately, the former
undoubtedly arriving about week
before the latter to take charge OF
the old nest or to settle on a favorable
spot for notification.
Wherever the stork is met with in
Europe. excepting in parts where its
occurrence is rare. where it meets
with the common fate of rarity, it is
protected. The peasants mostly hold
1t as sacred and consider is as sort
of protector or house god to the house
on which it nests, and one will some
times sell a nest to neighbor to
bring him luck, in which case the bird
will discover the new situation of its
nest and continue to occupy it.

Billingsgate is one of the most po-

talk may be. Here's how kind the fish
porters are: big porter who strolled
through the market, whistling under
his burden of fish, overlook a woman
struggling with heavy package.
" Ere you hare, hold dear" said he.
"Hfll give you hay and and still
balancing his fish box he caught up
the woman's parcel as well. When
the porter found his way barred it was
