SWANS TAUGHT TO SIMM,
The Black Necked Variety Are Afraid
of Water When Young,
You're acquainted with the prover-
bial phrase, "Like a duck takes to tide
water," That may apply all rightto
ducks, but there are some water birsi$.
which have to be taught to swim, jtt t
as we do. They hate the water at first
just as much as a boy hates the bath-
tub, One of these birds, which takes
swimming lessons from Its parents, is
the black necked swan.
The swan babies are called cygnets.
They are batched in an elaborate nest
which the parent swan builds along
the edge of a pool. The little cygnets
are able to walk and run as soon' as
they are out of their aliens, but they
can't swim.
So the mother swan tapes them for 'a
little ferry ride. She puts them on her
back auti'starts out across the pond.
The baby swans, frightened at first,
soon get used to seeing water all
around them.,
One day the anther swan turns her
long neck and gives her babies a gen-
tle push into the water. Such 0 scram,
ble and :plash: The babiestlounder
around and try their best to get back
on their mother's dry feathers. Final
ly . they learn that their feet are web-
bed paddles, given to thew: for snide.
ming purposes. and they are able to
glide over the water as gracefully and
as easily as their parents. -
ANCIENT FLOATING PALACE.
The Wonderful Ship Built For Hiero,
King of Syracuse.
The antiquity of ships may not be
gauged, for in Genesis it is recorded
that ships were even old on the kiedi-
terranean in •the days of Jacob. Fully
1830 years before Christ, Ammon built
• long and tall ships with sails on the
Red. sea. Ninety years later the ship
Argo was built, "the first Greek ves-
sel which ventured to pass through the
sea without sight of land, being guided
only by the stars."
The wonderful vessel built for Hiero,
king of Syracuse; excited curiosity and
wonder. The craft was constructed
under the direction of the celebrated
mathematician, Archimedes, by a ship-
builder at Corinth, from wood cut on.
Mount Etna. Eler decks were paved
with small and odci tiles, on which
were depicted with wonderful art
scenes from homer's "Iliad."
On the upper deck was a gymnasium
containing gardens planted with many
kinds of shrubs, with walks between
them overshadowed by vines and ivy,
the roots of which were netirished in:
moistened earth. Near this apartment
was a dining room dedicated to Venus,
paved with agates and precious stones.
The walls and ceiling were of cypress,
and the doors of ivory.—Argonaut.
No Law's Delay Here.
In Perak, in the Malay peninsula,
lawyers find no business, for a modi-
fied form of trial by ordeal decides all
disputes. In place of the legal prac•ti•
tioner the pleader is a native boy who
is assigned to one or the other of the
sides and is given n bamboo tube, in
which is sealed the pleading of the
person or party whom he represents.
When all is ready two stakes are driv-
en into the bed of a stream, and by aid
of a bamboo pole the heads of the two
boys aro submerged at the same time.
By grasping the stakes they are ena-
bled to remain under water for quite
awhile atter their natural inelunatian
would bring them to the surface, but
at last one of theta gives in and, re-
leasing his hold of the stake, comes •to
the air. He is imn ediately seized, anti
the tube he holds is cast aside. The
other lad is led ashore, his tube opened,
and the document contained therein
stands as the decision iu the ease.
Postmen In Faroff Days.
Postmen have a very respectable an-
tiquity. They were known, the Sun-
day at Home points out, in the faroff
days of King. Hezekiah's reign, some
700 years before Christ. In the thir-
tieth chapter of the second book of
Chronicles we rend that "the posts
went with the letters tltt'oubout 811
Israel and Judah," and, further, that
"the posts passed from city to city
through the country of Ephraim and
Manasseh." The postman of old was a
swift ruiner, who received the letter
from the sender's hand and carried it
direct to the person to whom it was
addressed.
Sounded Queer.
A man in telling about a wonderful
parrot hanging in a cage from a win-
dow of a house which he often passed
said;
"It cries 'Stop thief]' so naturally
that every time I hear it 1 always
stop."
Ho couldn't understand why his
friend began to laugh.
Specifications.
Tom -Do you know what 1 am going
to buy, you for your birthday present?
Kitty—No, only Pm sure b it will be
something new, stylish and elegant and
awfully expensive. You dear, reckless
boy, gout

TRIBUTE TQ THE MULE.
With All His Faults He to a Moro or
Less Noble Char.scter.
The mule is singularly flee from the
ills to which horseflesh is heir. Ile bas
more days' work in him in 305 consecty
tine days than any farm anneal or
farm euglne. He requires less feed
when at work than any horse that eau
approach his capacity, for wben he is
idle he can forage successfully *here
the draft horse finds the picking too
slim. He takes pot luck with any
owner cheerfully and keeps fit upon It.
In peace the mule is man's most
faithful servant, although the gentlest
or his kind is not entirely free from
original sin anti the oldest may experi-
ence unaccountable sporadic outbreaks
of devilment.
In` war the mule retains his chat teter
a.4 tt hard toiler, 0 good sc out aa,I a
homely figure about whew the inners
and pointers at the front do not grow
enthusiastic. Although he is unsung
when living and not greatly horned
he is not unwept when at thirty or be-
yond he lies dowia, sighs peacefully
rather than regretfully and gives ul,
his Spartan spirit.
If there is a hereafter for auirnaLs
the mules' paradise is a series of Ely-
sian fields with fences that only a good
juniper can clear, with Bolts to chase.
with something alive and preferably
two legged to kick and with plenty of
rough, plain victuals and a few goats
to play with in sportive moods and ne-
gro drivers not brutal, yet not too in-
dulgent, for human cornlrtunionship.—
Louisville Courier•Jourual.
Portuguese and Codfish.
It is an interesting fact that the fish.
ermen of northern Portugal started
and developed the fishing industry on
the "banks" off the northern coast of
America, and, though they now send
fewer ships, their taste for salt cod
from Newfoundland' is unabated—in
fact, it is a national Portuguese daiuty.
It is found in every little grocery shop,
bard and brown as a board. A number
of Portuguese have made their homes
on the islands to the south of the main -
laud of :Massac'hueetts, and there the
dark eyes of the Iberian maiden, raven
locks and a certain pieturesgne element
In dress are not infrequent. This eon•
notion with Portugal dates back many
years, the ships of Marthas Vineyard
bridging the distance over sea and re
turning with Portuguese crews.—Ex
change.
