Fresh Air Society.

A national association has been
formed to promote the use Of fresh
air, particularly in sleeping cars and
schoolrooms. One may laugh at the
modern American tendency to instl-
tutionalize everything, and form So
cieties to do things which every hu-
man being should attend to for him
self, but such an organization as the
one referred to has its uses. The no.
ton is still abroad in the land that
some kinds OF fresh air are very dan
gerous to human beings, and must be
used with extreme caution to avoid
fatal results. Night air is one OF
these supposedly deadly varieties of
atmosphere; fall air is another;
moving air, otherwise known as
drafts. is a third. In fact, there
are almost as many kinds Of evil at
mosphere as there are fools to make
the classifcation-and the name OF
the last is legion. The fresh air as
sociatjon can combat those absi1rd no

season il is not easy at first to dis
tinguish between them, while the
young goslings long battle conjecture
as to their sex.
Yet certain distinctions gradually
manifest themselves, as for instance,
the noise, the gander's hiss, being
more shrill and sibilant than the
goose's.
Newman says that when sA or
seven months of age, or at maturity,
the .ganders can be told from the
geese by observation. In most cases
the male grows somewhat larger than
the female.
The goose is deeper in the body, a
trife simmer in the neck, and smaller
in the neck. The call Of the gander
is loud, long and shrill, while that
of the goose is merely an answer to it.
There is a curious plan to deter
mine sex adopted in Cambridgeshlre'
England. All the geese are shut IN
a stable or a pig-sty. A small dog
is then put in. 1t is said the geese
will all lift up their heads and go
to the back Of the place, while the
ganders will lower and stretch out
their necks, Kissing all the time.
Gilbert refers to the same method,
saying the ganders will put their
heads down at the dog and hiss, while
the geese will keep their heads up and
try to avoid the intruder.

"Oh, as for that" began Leslie and
stopped, but he could not have been

though there was a slight contraction
of the eyelids. "He is a privileged

1t was long past the luncheon hour

'I did not expect you-I mean to

pretty state of confusion.
"No," said Leslie, breaking in; eve
butted in, that's all. How are you?''
He clasped her hand and bent over it.
She was regarding him with slightly
dilated eyes. He misinterpreted the
steady scrutiny. "Oh, it will all peel

Where is Mr. Booth?" inquired
Sara. Wouldn't he come in, Hetty?''
Il didn't think to ask him to
stop for luncheon she replied, and
then hurried off to her room to make
herself presentabfe.
Hetty was in a state of nervous ex.
citement during the luncheon. The
encounter with Booth had not resulted
at all as she had fancied it would. She
had betrayed herself in a most discon.

had peea determined at the outset,
she had failed, and now he had a
