He bad the care free look of the man whom wealth bas protected from ansiety. “I bave to earn my living” she re- minded him, “Marry me and you will have ev- erything you want. You will bave time then to do things that are worth while.” “1 cannot marry you,” she sald quiet- ly.

Why do you write such things?” “Because there are girls and wom- en who tell their troubles to me. They find comfort In doing it and they want my advice” “What sympathy can you have with the woes of ‘Perplexed Polly, ‘Mig- nonette Marie’ and ‘Little Dright Eyes?

Not 80 with birds, to which the sudden ringing of a bell on a tree or a post means something far more uncanny than any scarecrow flapping in the wind. Knowing this, the head master of an Austrian school has patented an electric scarecrow system in which a clock makes the connections at irreg- ular intervals to electric bells scat- tered over th~ orchard.

A young beaver in Regent's Park gardens, london, was once placed at work upon a tree 12 feet long and 2 feet 6 Inches thick just as the town clocks sounded the hour of noon. The beaver began by barking the tree a foot above the ground. That done he attacked the wood. He worked hard, alternating his labor with dips in his bathing pond. He bathed and labored alternately until 4 o'clock In the afternoon, when he ate his supper of bread and carrots and paddled about in his pond until half-past 6 o'clock. Ten minutes late’, when only one inch of the tree's diameter remalned intact, he bore upon his work and the tree fell. Before it fell the beaver ran as men run when they have fired a blast. Then as the tree lay on the ground he portioned it out mentally and again began to gnaw. He worked at intervals al' night, cut the log into three parts, rolled two of the portions into the water | and reserved the other third for his permanent shelter. he took a bath.—Harper's Weekly. Youth Had Much to Learn, An English gentleman once fell from | bis horse and injured his thumb. The pain increasing, he was obliged to send for a surgeon. One day the doc- tor was unable to visit the patient, ; and therefore sent his son Instead. “Have you visited the Englishman?” sald his father, in the evenlng. “Yes,” replied the young man, “and | have drawn out a thorn which I ascertained to be the chief cause of his agony.” “Fool!” exclaimed the father. “1 trusted you had more sense; now there is an end to the job.” Always Friendship. In the hour of distress and misery the eye of every mortal turns to xpects friendship; in the hour of gladness ::“ .:“:"t;.;: ::ekm?—‘gu‘:nm and conviviality, what 1s our want?
