MEASURING FLIGHT OF BIRDS
Song Thrush, Marked in Its Nest, Tra~'
els 1880 Miles In a Few
Months.

Some of the results OF the Aberdeen
university bird migration are con-
tanned in report just published. The
object OF the work is to obtain specific
and acsixate records OF bird flights.
The met ID employed is to mark new
~ Matched or young chicks In the nest

quent movements.
The longest flight recorded thus faR
IN the inquiry was that OF song
thrush 1t was marked when chick
in nest at Skene, Aberdeenshire. in
early June, 1910. In early November
of the same year 1t was shot near
Leiria. Portugal. 1850 miles by direct
overseas route from its birthplace.
How far 1t had travelled in the six
months of its life could only be
guessed at, but the investigators EST
mated that 1900 miles would be wei
within the possibilities.
Five lapwings were marked in their
nest in the northeast of Scotland. Four
were shot in Ireland. IN four different
counties. and the fifth was found In
southern Portugal A guillemot was
marked as a newly Matched chick on
the berdeenshire cliffs. II was shot

A Collector,s BARGAIN.

Lord Spencer of. Althorp. one of the
greatest of book collectors. was at
home only in his own field. One day
in browsing about Bond street Lon
don. he went into the shop of dealer
III bric-a-brac. The dealer. who knew
him by sight said persuasively:
Here is fine bit of pottery which
your lordship really ought to have, and
you shall have 1t very cheap-only 2
guineas."
SO Lord Spencer bought it and took
1t home and set in high place. One
day connoisseur of china paid him a
visit. and Lord Spencer showed his
bargain.
What did you give for itT' asked
the connoisseur.
Two guineas." answered Spencer
rather proudly.
HIM said the connasseur. "At
that price the marmalade should have
been included
what do you mean"
why. that precious piece of yours is
nothing more or less than a shilling
marmalade pot with a green thistle
painted ON It,"

Danger Signal.

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help to
put out the fire? 1t is much the same
way with a cough. A cough is dan
ger signal as much as fire bell.
You should no more try to suppress
it than to stop fire bell when it is
ringing, but should cure the disease
that causes the coughing. This can
nearly always be done by taking
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Many
have used it with the most beneficial
results. 1t is especially valuable for
the persistent cough that so often
follows bad cold or an attack of the
grip. Mrs. Thomas Beeching, An
drews, Ind, writes: During the win
ter my husband takes cold easily and
coughs and coughs. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is the best medicine
for breaking up these attacks and you
cannot get him to take any other"
