The reservoir, particularly the up: per one, with a path on the brink, is a place of romance. Across the water rise stately houses; they seem almost on the edge of the water, like the houses of Venice. 'Sometimes the water is & sheet of ice. One day it seemed like o strotch of gray taffets, with inserts of blue crepe where the wingd rippled the patches of water that remained. Close to the shore broken bits of fee tinkled continually against o stretch of solid ice, with the sound of sleigh bells, But in summer there IS another aspect to the reservoir.

SMALL BIRDS FALCON'S PREY Peregrine, Like the Pirate He s, Takes Toll From Weaker Crea- . tures of the Air. It was reported recently that in the eyrle of a peregrine, a vicious bird, the | rings of 22 racing pigeons were found. The peregrine falcon often kills birds which are unfortunate enough to cross its path. Peewits and other birds tliat frequent the coast are relentlessly pur- sued by this hawk, and another prey 18 the golden plover, but this bird af- fords the hawk a good chase before it 18 caught. The .peregrine catches its prey by F. protruding its strong legs and talons to their fullest extent when within a few feet of the quarry. Then for a moment its wings are almost closed, and the next the prize is seized and carried off: - If, however, the object is too heavy to be lifted from the ground 1t 18 forced along sometimes a hundred .yards . on the ground, and killed and devoured on the spot.

The story as told by Kenpeth L. Rob- erts in the Saturday Bvening Post, I8 that In the center of each roow is a large table with @ minlature race track bullt on it. The owner places a box at one end of the track and waits until his patrons have mude their bets on five contestants. Then he opens 0X and discloses five cnormous aches attached to diminutive sulkies. As the box is opened four of the contestants may start - briskly around the track, while the fifth may turn abruptly and canter in the wrong direction amid heart-breaking groaus from those who are backing his colorg. ‘Then the leader of the four racers who are headed in the right direction may stop short and twiddle his feelers pen- sively, and the other three may also stop and cluster avound him to Inves- tigate the cause of the delay. While the conference is in progress the cock- roach that started the wrong way may change his mind, turn and come dash- ing past the four idlers with his eyes flashing and his tail up. Then the four idlers may recover- from theit mo- mentary ennul, start briskly up the track again and pass the fifth contest- ant, who has praobably fallen Into a brown_study and leaned up against the race-track wall with crossed legs and weakly waving feelers. And so it goes, untll oue of the cockroaches final- ly. pulls himself together and scuttles across the finish line. Triumph for Old-Timer.

It might be efther the compensation pald by a manslayer |% to the nearest relatives of the victim, to secure himself and his kin {pm vengeance, or the money pald as a reward for bringing about the death of another, directly or through evi- dence. It was once common among the Scandinavian and Teutonic peo- ples, who called this money payment wergild, The . price varled with the nature of the crime. and the rank of the victim, Certain crimes, such as the slaying of 4 sleeping person, could | not be compensate¢d by o money pay- ment; such criminals were declared outlaws and could be_slain with im- punity. The term is now often applied to the reward or bribe pald for giving up a criminal to justice. Original Playing Cards. The original pack of cards was a quiver of arrows. Playing cards are regarded as derlved from the divina- tory use of the arrow away back in the- cradle of clvilization—China or India, says Stewart Culin, the archae- ologist. The ancients played gunes with marked arrows, and the Museum of Archeology, University of Pennsylvania, has several specimens of these primitive playing cards. Anclent, Chinese and Corean cards are long and nafrow, -and by their design and name show unmistakably that they are conventionalized shaft- ments of arrows, retaining in their sult marks the same symbolism as that of the quiver of arrows from which they were derived. The old Corean and Chinese name for playing cards is “fighting tablets.” Was Just “Checking Up.” One morning a negro sauntered in- to the office of a white friend. “Good- mawnin’, Mr, Withrow.
