They cannot consort with one another in happy companies, as do the -warblers and thrushes and finelles, and sing and whisper, but must call loudly and long to one another in the darkness. Ou coasts where petrels and certain other night hunting sea birds abound, all day sitting on their eggs or hiding in burrows, you will ]tear no sound from morning till night, but after dark the air is filled with shrill cries. The loud, reiterated calling of the southern. clnu'k-will's-widow and of its northern cousin is familiar. A whippoorwill will sound its ery several hundred times in succession without a pause. Owls !root or utter a harsh sort of laughter, rarely pleasant to listen to, and night heruus and bitterns squawk and boom. Sweet songs occasionally heard in the darkness are those of wakeful day birds, as the nightingale or our own oven bird.—Ernest Ingersoll in Harper's Maga'riue. Right Living and Good Looks. Today our great cities show propor- tionately a higher average of dress and general striving after personal attrac- tiveness among both men and women than the great cities of any other coun- try. Success depends in the largest meas- ore upon hcaltO and the personal im- pression one makes upon his fellow men, and properly to develop and to maintain the "points" that make for personal attractiveness is to develop and maintain health. For example, how many men and women stop drinking and overeat- ing because fat is fatal to good looks? The struggle to keep looking young is a struggle to keep in perfect health. And what a blessing that is to the present and all future generations! The price of good looks is right 1h•- ing. and the reward of right living is health - husbands and Wives Who Refuse to Mingle In Society. Selfishness is the bane of all life. It cannot enter into life—individual, family or social—without cursing it. Therefore if any married pair find themselves' inclined to confine them- selves to one another's society, indis- posed to go abroad and mingle with the life around them, disturbed and ir- ritated by the collection of friends in their own dwelling or in any way mov- ed to regard their social duties as dis- agreeable, let them be alarmed at once. It is a bad symptom—an essentially morbid symptom. They should insti- tute means at once for removing this feeling, and they can only .remove it by persistently going into society, persist- ently gathering it into their own dwell- ing and persistently endeavoring to learn to love and feel an interest in all with 'whom they meet. Tho process of regeneration will not be a tedious one, for the rewards of social life are im- mediate. The heart enlarges quickly with the practice of hospitality. The sympathies run and take root from point to point, each root throwing up leaves and bear- ing flowers and fruit like strawberry vines if they are only allowed to ILo so. It is only sympathies and strawber- ries that are cultivated in hills which do otherwise. The human face is a thing which should be ab'e to bring the heart into blossom with a moment's shining, and will be such with you if you will meet it properly. The penalties of family isolation will not, unhappily, fall entirely upon your- selves. They will be visited with double force upon your children.

Incident That Given an Insight Into Itussinn Character. A few years ago I was taking a couutry walk in Kovno. The road lay through a dense forest, and the day was oppressively hot. I arrived at last at a crossroad and sat down under the shade of the trees to rest. A. signpost pointed its two arms down the con- verging roads. On one of them was in- scribed "14 versts to Janova," on the other "17 versts to Shadowa." Present- ly the creaking of wheels and the slow "clop, clop" of a horse's hoofs on the road behind roused me. A cart piled high with tinware was coming down the road, with the driver perched on the top'of the load. "Good day, brother," I called out as the cart, with its sorry horse, came abreast of me. The man returned my salute, and the horse, glad of any ex- cuse to rest his weary legs, came to a standstill in the middle of the road. 1 "Which way are you going?" I asked. "To Janova. There is a market there tomorrow." "But there is -also a market In Sha- dowa," I answered, "and it is a more important place than Janova." ! . "So it is, so it is," the driver replied, with perfect indifference. "What have you for sale?" "Plenty of good tinware, as you can see, brother. I have worked for six weeks to make this cartload." "Well, good luck to you and your tinware," I said, pulling and eating the berries within reach. "Will you take it to Janova or Shadowa?" The man picked up the bit of cord which served as reins and prepared to go on. "I shall leave that to my horse," he answered callously. • The lumbering wagon moved off and filially passed out of sight down the he ``Bee Hive" Bi'gE1evei IT COMMENCES TO- -DAA'. r WHAT DOES IT MEAN?
