suyer Gets Rare Volume Cheap.

First editions and rare books often
bring prices at sales which excite the
wonder OF the uninitiated, but large as
the sums received sometimes are, II
often happens that a volume goes for
less than had been paid for 1t by the
preceding owner. This is illustrated In
the case of a Douay Bible which
brought S6,250 at a New York auction
sale a short time ago. 1t had belong
ed to the collection of the late John ID.
Crimmins, who had paid $5,565 for 1t
II years before. Because of its intrin-
sic value as photographic rarity, II
had increased $685. in that time. But
Augustin Daily, from whose estate
Crimmins bought the Bible, had spent
$4,000 on II in illustrating II with
rare prints, original drawings and old
engravings OF Biblical events, thereby
enlarging the original book to AZ vol
umes. However, the confirmed collect
or does not usually buy books as an
investment, but for the pleasure OF
owning them, and probably Mr.. DAILY
got $4,000 worth OF entertainment In
gathering the prints and in extra-il-
Illustrating the book.

Rocks In Noisy ConcIave.

The ways OF rocks In France,
somewhere in the army zone, puzzle
a correspondent who writes that their
behavior at the advent OF mild wealth
er was peculiar. They congregated in
immense numbers on few trees near
his billet; the trees were literally
black with them; every twig and
branch was crowded with screaming
mob OF birds, that wheeled up and
down in great excitement. Sometimes
they settled on the fields, but not to
feed. The writer surmises that, hav-
ing on a fine day resolved to visit their
old nests, as is their habit, they found
that the wOodcutters-busy In France
as they are In England, had destroyed
their nesting sites. The hurly-burly
in the trees was probably then due
to the rocks all giving their advice 81
multaneously as to what ought to be
done in such untoward circumstances.
