Such Bird* Come hikii. There used to be in a store on Ninth avenue. New York, a very valuable canary whose owner and teacher, the wife of the German proprietor, refused an offer of SSOO for it. Sometimes as one entered the place there came from a corner in the rear a liquid peal of music so sweet and high and clear that it sounded like a piccolo without the metallic shrillness of that instrument. in :i small wicker cage a black and yellow c.innry waltzed round and round, never quiet, and as it danced it sang tlie air of •‘Lauterbach" from beginning to end without a false quantity, without missing er changing a note. When the solo was finished the bird whisked up to its perch, trilled an I improvisation nnd then began tin' mel ' ody again, break:'.off in the middle, warbling a little in self willed fashion mid then finishing the air. It was a beautiful nnd unique performance.— Philadelphia Leuger.

Wetrlnn. In Metal*. It Las lie,m found that when animal matter (for instance, a muscle or nerve is repeatedly irritated its-. sensitiveness wears off after a time. The deflection of tlie gai>unonie'.i r needle is feebler and feebler, in fact, tlie muscle or tiervo begins to show s'gns of fatigue, in tite human body, of course, this fatigue is quite obvious. If we use a particular • niscJe or nerve continuously without giving it lime to rest Its original action soon becomes enfeebled. Professor Rose finds that metals betray exactly the s. me signs ci fatigue under repeated irritation. — A 8. K. Ghosh in '‘“arson's Magazine "Vot AS-.vny.w So. Tess So vou vt broken with him?
