Bird Calls and Their Names.

Most of US know the chickadee when
We hear him calling. over and over.
"Chick-a-dee, dee dee. Chick-a-dee, dee.
dee!" But when he sings his clear
whistling note, Phoebe, Phoebe" we
are likely to mistake him for the
phoebe bird. The chickadee stays in
the North in winter. and the phoebe
does not come North till the early
spring. The phoebe bird sings its
name over and over. a very sweet but
penetrating sound. The peabody bird
says. Peabody, peabody, peabody"
over and over. In a rather senseless
way as II he went round In a circle.
Another bird that sings his name is
Bob White. the quail. Only he often
says Poor Bob White!" His notes
go up and down, and are stronger than
the notes of the smaller birds and may
be heard at long distance. OF course
these birds do not really sing their
names! But people listening to them
have fancied that these names are
what the notes sound like, and SO they
have given the bird the name.

This at least should be rule

that no angry letter be posted till
four and twenty hours shall have
elapsed since it was written. We all
know how absurd Is that other rule.

angry. Trash! Sit down and write
your letter; write 1t with all the ven
ON in your power; spit out your
spleen at the fullest; twill do you
good. You think you have been in
jured; say all that you can say with
all your poisoned eloquence, and graf
ify yourself by reading it while your
temper is still hot. Then put 1t in
your desk; and, as a matter Of course,
burn 1t before breakfast the following
morning. Believe me that you will
then have double Qualification

Old Watch on Aliens.

Medieval England kept sharp
watch over aliens, even those belong
ing to nations with which 1t was at
peace. According to the Saxon law OF
frank-pledge, which remained in force
until 1870, no hosteler might entertain
a foreigner for more than day and
night unless he undertook to answer
for his guests behavior. No foreign
ers were allowed to keep hostels In
London, and many became naturalized
in order to qualify for this privilege
Even so, they were not suffered to
compete on equal terms with the ma
tives, being required to keep their
houses Sin the heart of the CITY," and
being rigidly excluded from the more
profitable regions on the bank OF the
Thames.

Peculiar Work on Streets.

A quaint old law for the punishment
of petty offenders exists to this day
In Middleburg, The Netherlands, and
anything resembling 1t is not known
to exist elsewhere. Owing to damp
ness weeds quickly spring up in the
streets. between the paving stones,
and here, under the eye of nonetoo-
severe guard, the offenders are put to
work with large trowel-shaped knife,
clearing away the up-springing blades
of green. Each is provided with a
wooden stool, hence 1t may be imag-
ined that they are not hard driven.
Here men and women alike, who have
been convicted, work in this manner.

Hia Eaxorite Hymn.

A lady with an unusually sweet voice
is connected with a charitable organ
ization and often sings at funerals In
the tenements. At the funeral OF
man who had been killed by falling
from a scaffold she was met by a
woman who seemed to be in charge
To her the singer said: What dc
you want me to sing?" "Blest If
know" was the reply. 81 don't know
what the fav'rite Of the corpse was
and, fallin' from a scaffold like he
done, he didn't have no chance to
pick out a piece" Then she thrust
her head inside door and said to
someone in the room: DO any OF
you know what the corpse's fav'rite
hymn was?"

Indian Eco Dance.

Want a new dance? Why not try
the Indian egg dance? Place IS eggs
in rows on the floor and dance rapidly
zigzag among them without breaking
any of them-that's all. An expert
says 1t takes four or Ave years of prac.
tice to become an adept and that
learners will do well to use potatoes
during the first two or three years of
practice. 1t may be added that 1t is
advisable to use strictly fresh eggs
at any stage of the game. The rea.
son for this precaution can readily be
understood by securing a defunct egg
and breaking the shell suddenly with
an ak.

Smyrna.

Smyrna can lay claim to a loftier
lineage than perhaps any other city
on the earth. 1t is her proud boast
that from the earliest dawn of history
down to the present bombardment her
continuity of name and fame is un-
broken. 1t is in this spirit that she
claims Homer for citizen. His river
the Meles, which gave him a name
runs near the city; and the cave is
still shown where he wrote his poems.
Smyrna has not been slack in appro.
priating Homer, endowing him even
with a local temple. The saddest
chapters in the history Of the city are
those which record earthquakes and
massacres OF Greeks by Turks.

SPEEDER RESISTED
ARREST BY G.

b. II. M%eeEinson, motorist, does not
mind being "pinched by a regular pO-
Hceman', but when it comes to negro
officers he draws the line. Sunday
MegEinFon was speeding down Archer
without a blue or a red tag. Smith
crman hailed him, boarded his run
ming board and ordered the white
man to drive him to the station.
Instead the alleged viOlator of the
city ordinance took a long run to-
ward the city limits. Smitherman
ordered him TO turn back. Meggis-
son kept a straight course. Smither
man took hold of the wheel and gave
the engine some gas. The big car
took a swerve which threw the negro
off into a ditch.
Smithcrman was laying for his man
again Monday evening. During the
early hours Of the night Megginson
passed the officers beat, still with
out any sign Of a license. Again he
hailed the alleged violator II again
he slowed down. But this time the
motOrtst struck the negro policeman
over the head with a searchlight as
he approached to make the arrest.
The law was badly dazzled. The
motorist gave the gas TO his machine
and left the scene of battle.
Motorcycle Hughes made the ar
rest and placed him on three charges
at the police station. His case was
postponed in municipal court until
Thursday morning.
