NOT ALL ARE LIKE THIS
Example Of the coId-6Iooded New
York Landlady Probably
an Exception.

Ever since coming to New York
have heard about the cold-blooded
metropolitan landlady," remarked the
woman-who-hails-fro -the-west, but it
was not until my colored laundress
lost her son that l rubbed elbows
with the genuine calloused article.
The boy was drowned while bathing
in the Hudson, and policeman
brought home his few garments and
dilapidated old shoes, with the word
that the body would hardly be re-
covered.
The woman's first thought was
that she wanted her husband to know
OF their loss and come 10 her comfort.
He is employed as kitchen helper In
a boarding house run by a woman In
the north end of Manhattan. 1 tele-
phoned to his employer, and she calm
ly replied that the man could not
come to the telephone, no servants
were permitted to do SO; nor would
she give the message to him. He is
particularly busy today, and cannot
spare him. was her harsh reply.
Rather holly l informed her that l
would Immediately telegraph him,
and she replied that the message
would not be delivered until after
working hours
Later learned that l should have
reported the matter to the police de-
partment and a policeman would have
been sent to inform the father; but
as the matter stood, the distracted
mother had to wait for the comfort
of her husband until after working
hours nearly ten hours, at that"

How Divers Fish.

When diving lessons are going on at
the Newport Training Station there
is always fish for supper. The thick
black mud at the bottom of the hay
is dotted with founders, big fellows
that the divers easily capture by hand
and bring up without any trouble. 1t
is hard to walk on the sea floor with
out stepping on them, where they lie
half buried in the ooze. All the man
under water has to do is to stoop and
pick them up. Being a sluggish fish,
they make very little resistance and
are hauled up to the surface by the
tail or fms without any fuss. Big cells.
too, are plentiful, fat. green fellows
thick as a mans arm. 1t would take
a stout net to hold them and no diver
dares to tackle one. no matter how
much his mouth waters for cells stew
ed in milk. The muscular contortions
of such cells as inhabit Newport har-
Dor would be pretty sure to foul the
lifeline or airhose and would prob
ably result in the divers death, so
the men in the diving suits confine
themselves to the complainant

ONE BIRDS LABOR OF LOVE
Naturalist Watches Thrushes Building
Their Nest, Where the Female
Did the Work.

The other day I sat for an hour
watching a pair Of wood thrushes en-.
gagged in building their nest near "Slab.
sides" say a pair, though the fe.
male really did all the work. The
male hung around and was evidently
an interested spectator OF the proceed
ing. The mother bird was very busy
bringing and placing the material.
which consisted mainly of dry maple
leaves which the winter had made
thin and soft, and which were strewn
over the ground all about. How
pretty she looked running over the
ground, now in shade. now in sun
shine, searching for the leaves that
were Just to her fancy! Sometimes
she would seize two or more and with
a quick, soft fight bear them to the
fork Of little maple sapling.
Every five or six minutes during her
absence the male would come and in
spect her work. He would look Il
over, arrange a leaf or two with his
beak, and then go his way. Twice
he sat down in the nest and worked
his feet and pressed it with his
breast, as If shaping it. When the fe-
male found him there on her return
he quickly got out of her way.
But he brought no material, he did
no needful thing, he was bird of
leisure. The female did all the
drudgery, and with what an air Of
grace and ease she did it! So soft
Of wing, so trim of form, so pretty of
pose and so gentle in every move
ment! 1t was evidently no drudgery
to her, the material was handy, and
the task one Of loge.-Country Life in

"The fish hawk tells us when the
shad begin to run up the river" said
a Gloucester fisherman. I'VE have
learned that 1t isn't much use to cast
nets. no matter how mild the wealth,
er may be. until Mr.. Fish Hawk
swoops down on US.
When he comes sailing up the bay
we know it's time to get to work.
Lots OF farmers down Jersey would
never think to start planting until the
fish hawks come. doo't believe they
have ever been later than April ~,
though. They work thsir way up the
coast from B1orida and the other
southern waters early In March, when
the fish begin to come north. They
follow the big schools Of herring, as
a rule, because the herring swim close
together. and the hawk has easy pick
ing. The shad follow the herring, and
when the fish hawk comes We know
the shad are not far behind. Fish

Geography Lesson From a Shrimp

9'Nf'J -NSSS' iSbi q
DR.. Gaillard, a member of the Til
no mission, discovered in Lake Tchad
numerous shrimps of a species well
known to naturalists, but hitherto
found only in the Nile and it's tribu-
taries. This discovery leads physical
geographers to assert that the basins
of the Nile and of Lake Tchad were
once in communication. For 1t is i'm
possible to imagine that the very fra
gile eggs or larvae of Palaemon
niloticus, as this shrimp is called,
could have been transported from one
basin to the other by aquatic birds in
the manner that seeds are carried.
The topography OF the intervening
region is not yet sufficiently known to
make 1t possible to assert certainly
that there was once a great lake or
marsh between the Nile and Lake
Tchad or that tributary of the great
river once took It's rise In the Sa-
haran lake. but there is a vast de-
preston about the Bahr-elGazel re-
gion that makes this hypothesis seem
probable.

HIS DEATH LEAVES BIG GAP
Collins, Walter IN Houss Of Commons
Smoking Room, Had Known GEN
eratlons OF Members.

Scarcely any figure could have de-
parted from the house OF commons
and left so great gap in the intimate
life OF members as has been occa;
stoned by the death OF Collins. the
waiter in the upper smoking room.
For something like fifty years he had
been in the service OF the house, and
he had known whole generations OF
members, who looked upon him with
almost affection. The upper smoking
room is the true center OF serious gos-
sip In the house of commons. IL Ia
the place where men speak their
minds to one another. Collins, in NOV
ing about among the tables, heard all
the gossip, and no man was so in
fallible in interpreting the real opinion
OF members-an opinion not always
expressed in more public quarters.
Some few weeks ago a garden party
to the staff and police of the house
of commons, Mr.. T. p. O'Connor made
general reference to the unique posi-
ton of Collins. He told how, when
Mr.. Lloyd George was in doubt about
the passing OF his budget, when all
the political authorities told him one
thing or another, he went to Collins,
as the best informed politician, to
know what ought to be done.
Collins was an ideal waiter, know
ing the preferences of his regular cuss
toners and needing no order from
them when they entered the room
over which he ruled He seemed to
have the secret of perpetual youth. His
round, sunny boyish face, his alert
ness and his uniform cheerfulness
gave to him an appearance of juven-
ility which belied all statements as to
his age. He had the true Irish tenn
permanent, was witty and ready. and
was never known to be "out of sorts."'
No man was more generously treated
or more highly respected by his CLIP

as the most incompetent in the his

completely to come up to the standard

hands. No real strong, unselfsh and

consumed in aimless talk and in pet
