On the whole. President Jackson

not wish to make some change in his

Legend of Mount Omi.

Mount Omi, on the border between
western China and Tibet, has the long
est staircase in the world. On top Of
the mountain there stands a Buddhist
temple, around which gather some Of
the hottest traditions of that religion
and which is made Mecca to the Chi
aese. To facilitate the ascent of it's
slippery sides some 10000 steps have
been cut in the mountain, forming a
single fight, up which the pilgrim tolls
Because of it's inaccessibility few En-
copeans have ever visited the spot, but
number of travellers have assembled
the stairway and are positive that it is
40 legendary myth. There is legend
that in earlier times the Pilgrim was
forced to ascend the mountain without
artificial aids until the monks con-
reived the plan of requiring every pill
grim who would gain especial benefit
Of his journey to cut single step.

Bu!lock's OrioIe.

Like his eastern relative, the Balti-
more oriole. this birds chief claim to
fame is his ability as an architect and
builder. They called him Bullock's
oriole, and he is distinguished from
our other orioles by his black throat
and orange cheeks. He is found from
South Dakota, Nebraska and Kansas
to the Pacific ocean and from southern
Canada to northern Mexico-that is, he
can be found there five or six months
Fall and winter find him somewhere
in Mexico"
The Bullock's oriole takes kindly to
orchards and is an excellent guardian
for the fruit trees during the blossom
ing season. His favorite morsel is the
black olive scale, topped off with a
nice fat caterpillar or two.
Emulating the American Indian, the
male bird refuses to work, and the
tedious task of weaving and suspend
ing the nest is shifted to the female
Philadelphia North American.
