COUNT" TOO ABSENT MINDED
Principal Reason Why One interna tional Marriage Was Permanent
 Iy Called of.

Henry P. Davison of the Morgan banking firm was talking about inter national marriages:
 Well" he said, "I know Of one in ternational marriage that failed thank goodness. 10 come of. The girI was the daughter of a Paint Rock millionaire. The man was count, Spanish count.
 The count was absent minded That was his undoing. The girls father gave a dinner for him in the Paint Rock castle overlooking Paint Rock. and at the dinners end the count got up to light cigarette, and then, by iove, started to remove the plates.
 The guests watched him in an open-mouthed silence. His napkin slung over his arm, he had got nearly all the plates removed when his mil lionaire host said to him gently:
 Wake up, George. You're not waiting in the beanery now, you know You're pretending you're q count in Paint Rock. Wake up, man for gracious sake!'"

INSTINCT IN BIRDS
Attachment to First Home Is Much the Same as Is Evidenced
 in Humanity.

The habit of birds in migrating South when winter comes on is in iuenced by the need Of finding suf- ficient supply of food. As food grows scarce when winter approaches in the farthest northern places where birds live they naturally turn to the South, where. their instinct tells them. fooc will be plentiful. The return of the birds in the spring to their accustomed haunts in the North is one of the evi- dences of their possession of an in stinet which is also strong in man.
 The environment in which bird or human being is brought up generally becomes permanent part of its na- ture. Ornithologists have not yet made it clear just what enables the bird to find its way back and forth to the same spot every year. and our knowledge is confined to the fact of what the "homing instinct" does.
 After they mate and build their first nest and bring up their first fam lily. birds cherish a fondness for that spot much the same as the attach. ment that man feels for his early home The spring migration of birds is their joyful return home after a temporary sojourn abroad 10 secure the means of livelihood

EXPLAINING SONGS OF BIRDS
Beautiful Notes of the Nightingale, for Instance, Are Inspired by
 Paternal Love.

It is generally assumed that a bird sings because he is happy, but sci ence goes deeper for an explanation of the why and wherefore of the birds song. Natures optimistic joy in constructive progress is expressed in the singing of the male birds who charm their mates to further their wooing, and continue after eggs are laid to encourage the fulfillment of hatching.
 The song stops when the little birds come out of the shell The nightin gale. for weeks during the period oi nest-building and matching, charms his mate and human ears near him with the beautiful music of his love song. Bit as soon as the little night ingales come from the eggs the song changes to a sort of guttural croak implying anxiety and sense of respon sibility.
 If the nest and contents were de stroyed the nightingale would at once resume his beautiful song to inspire his mate to help him build another nest and start all over again the lov ing work of being fruitful and multi plying

A lady doctor writes:
