Has Several Broods

There is no native bird which at
tempts to equal the mourning dove
in domestic accomplishments, says
the Nature Magazine. Its breeding
season extends from early May until
late September, and, II fate Is lenient
with the frail establishment Of the
bird, three or four broods may be
raised to maturity with scarcely a
pause between each family.

Seemed Like Home

A little girl was crossing the At
lantic with her mother. 1t was her
first ocean trip. The sea was as
smooth as the proverbial mill-pond
for the first three days; then the
ship began rolling and pitching heavi-
ly. The child could not understand
what had happened. Mamma" she
said, whats the matter? Are we on
a detour ?"-American Boy.

Figure 1t for Yourself

If everyone listened at the same

number millions, but half the audi

than that, half the audience that is
listening may not be listening to any

At a recent meeting Of the Adelaide
Trotting club in England, an attempt

great speed.

Dark Ages Bridges

1t is a curious light upon the inter-
probation of our common term "the
Dark ages" that those Dark ages"
should have given England nearly all
the bridges she had till the time Of
the Georges, for bridge building per-
ished with the destruction of the mon
asteries, and even the principles had
to be re-invented by Eighteenth cen
fury engineers.
