To see the pearl fisher at work

seas. In the first fine days of June
he may be found by burn or loch in
a dozen parts Of Scotland, says cor

ker class, and his outfit is of the sim

and a bit of common glass. and cleft
stick to pull up the mussels, in any
one of which he may find small for
tune These mussel-pearls from the
Ythan and Teith and other Scottish
streams fetch good prices; one was
sold not long ago for fully $3.50. Pearls
are found in Canada mnSsels also,
some of them of considerable value
But in Canada there is little or no
private ownership of waters, so that
our pearl fishers run no risk, as do the
Scots, of being arrested for poaching.

Seemed But a Bit of Rose Petal.

toXicating air of creative moments.
His world was spinning, tossing, tum-
bling and clipging again to heights
unknown to any save the great artists
of life. Had Marcel known that bit
of human driftwood had been lodged
against his door he undoubtedly would
have failed to complete his great mas
terpiece, for Marcel was above all a
compassionate human being. His emo
lions would have been torn to shretls
and left jagged and worn at sight of
Doris in her present drab state. How
ever, he was unconscious of her very
existence and carried his masterpiece
to a glorious and triumphant finale.
The strains buried themselves in the
brain of Doris, and while her body lay
inert her soul was swshing about in a
glory of sound and her senses were
registering every movement so that at
a later day her body would again pro-
duce them in a dance of utmost per-
lection of expression.
So intense was her strain that from
sheer fatigue of the brain she must
have dropped into an exhausted sleep.
Marcel dashing out toward dusk for
a bite of food wherewith to keep his
soul and body together, stumbled over
the drab heap of humanity at his door.
SO startled was Marcel that for a mo-
ment he failed to realize that the thing
which his feet had all but kicked was
a bit of the feminine world. With
arms gentle as those of woman Mar
Gel lifted the slight bundle and carried
it within his scantily furnished room.
Once there he deposited the girl in
the one chair in his possession.
she opened wide her eyes. They
rested with wonderful light in their
depths full on Marcel. He sighed with
relief. for he had not known what to
expect from thai inert heap.
Il must have fallen asleep at your
door, Doris said slowly; "the music
was SO heayeuly-so beyond anything
| have ever heard-that well,
think my senses were quite drugged by
its beauty"
II was Marce's turn to open wide
his eyes This was no mere flaftery.

itself more through glowing. brilliant
eyes and vibrant little body than by

custom adopted by him has come down

Outside the Door
BY DOROTHY DOUGLAS

| ~. 1870. by Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate.
Up and down the piano like a water
sprite pursued by tornado dashed
the fingers of Marcel Caronlri. In his
eyes was the wild conquest of music
and in his soul all the color and
grandeur of Il great artist.
Daily Marcel sat at the piano and
practiced those wonderful dances that
were one day to set the world atire
with their flame
And each day outside his door
crouched more or less ragged little
figure whose haunted eyes were light
ed with the glow of appreciation and
whose hungry little body was not less
starved for food than was her soul for
music.
The corner Of the dark hall on the
top floor of the rooming house permit
ted her to crouch with her touseled
head as near as possible and drink, in
the wild music undisturbed.
She was a drab little bundle. Her
clothes. her life and all there was to
her seemed drab-all but her eyes,
and in them was an intensity of in
spiration and SOW-huruing fire.
Tossed about relentlessly by the
winds of fate and being of not suffi-
Gent strength Of her own to buffet sue
cessfully, Doris Varisi fingered on the
mediocre doorstep Of life a being, only
half conscious of her own powers and
striving with a pitiful maintenance to
keep body and soul together by dane
ing in fifth-rate restaurants.
And Marcel Caronni made music in
his top-tloor, scantly furnished room,
that flung the soul of Doris into a wild
passion of expression.
She seemed suddenly born of the
wind and clouds; her feet light as
fawn, her movements gentle as the
moths that hung in the fragrance of a
moOnlit garden.
Marcel played on, quite unconscious
that any human being was within miles
of him. He was in a world of his own
making and breathing deeply the in

Doc Hero Of Sea Disaster.

Last December when the steamer
Ethele ran ashore on the coast of New
foundland with ninety-two passengers
including a newborn infant, in imme-
date danger of death in the heavy sea,
Reuben Decker of Bonnie Bay called
his dog and, putting the end of rope
in his mouth, started him to swim to
the wrecked ship. The dog, holding
the rope fast, plunged into the heavy
sea, and after struggling for more than
an hour reached the steamer. With
the line aboard, the passengers were
sent ashore in breeches buoy, the
baby being carried in a mail bag. Now
the dog has a silver collar. the gift of

deadly fangs, and sometimes swim in

Of this species is the sub-family con-

ABSURD NAMES WORK HARM
May Be Witty, But They Too FIRE.
quentIy Tend to Put Community
in Disrepute.

Freakish and absurd names given
by some waggish wit in the primitive
times, have a way of persiSting, cling
ing to the community, so that it is
most difficult to get rid of them when
new people have succeeded to resi-
dence there. Some Of these absurd
names are so ridiculous they harm the
community, tending at all times to put
it in disrepute, make it a jest and
byword.
All over the country are to be found
places where the Old-time wit left his
contribution of harmful levity, against
which the community struggles. In
the ncHtliern part of Missouri was
little community that was given, in
die days before the war, the rather
&fnrtling name of Burnshirt The
name grew out of an incident that
took place when some big-game hunt
ers were encamped at the settlement.
The name appealed to the risbilities
of the community and for two genera
tons it was compelled to bear that
name. 1t had small degree of COM
fort from the fact that a lesser COM
munity, hard by, had won the name
of Pinhook. Hooppole township in
Posey county, Indiana, is quite the

When the eggs on the ostrich farms
in California ave on the point of hatch
ing, curious tapping of the shell may
be heard. This the keepers call "tele-
phOning." The sound is caused by
the chicks inside the eggs endeavOring
to break out. Those which cannot
easily emerge are assisted by the
mother bird, which will sometimes
break an egg from which the telephon-
ing is heard by pecking it carefully
and will then aid the chick to get out.

For when she repeated the number
She actually got it right.

And my heart beat high and fast
As I said to myself Eureka"

Once more seized the hook
Between my thumb and finger
And shook; and shook, and shook.
But listened and listened vainly,

And the stars were out, but Central
Had made no answer yet.

But wonder now and then
If only when I'm in heaven
Shall l hear that voice again.
