It Is useless to look for these self preserving traits In any of the family kept In zoological collections, for the birds are so accustomed to see large numbers of people pissing and repasslng or stnmllng In front of them that they treat the whole matter with perfect Indifference.

The Clergymnn'i Hobby home. Visitors to a quaint little church in England observe a curious relic in the shape of a high stool with a leather top like a saddle. The parish clerk shows not a little pride In this relic and tells its story witli relish, liming the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the country parsons were accustomed , to spend much of their time hunting with their country squires. Oftentimes tlie fox got more attention than the sermon on the following Sunday. Such was tlie ease with the parson who left tLe saddle stool behind him as a relie of the days of fox hunting par--1 sons. He was a good deal more at ’ home in the saddle than in tlie pulpit, so in order to introduce some of the : life and spirit into his discourses which he felt while in tlie hunting field, the reverend gentleman had this saddle stool made. It was placed in tlie pulpit before the parson mounted the steps. Once astride this bobby tlie parson was able to reach a much higher degree of enthusiasm and eloquence than he eould have unmounted. A IM n von verted Committee. Ferdinand Hassler, the father of the 1 United States coast survey system, was once waited upon by a committee of congress sent to inquire into tlie progress of the work. Tlie committee reached New York and wended tlie.ir way upstairs to the room where Hassler was drilling his classes and preparing them for the work. Hassler, who allowed no intruders, met them at the door and inquired their busi-iess. They answered that they had come to in vestigate. "What part of the work do you wisli to inspect?" inquired the Swiss mathematician. Congress had no definite idea on that point. "Then you had better go and tin I out." re turned Hassler as he shut the door in the faces of the astonishi“l commit tee. The committee looked at each other and on si-cond sober thought concluded that Has<ier wak about right I and quietly wended their way down stairs ami back to Washington. A Tomi’s CunninKA scientific journal tells this story of a toad’s cunning: A brood of chick etlS was fed with moistened meal in saucers, and when the dough soured a little it attracted large numbers of flies. An observant toad had evidently noticed tills, and every day toward evening be would make his appearance in tlie yr.nl. hop to si saucer, climb in and roll over until he was covered with meal, having done which lie awaited developments. '1 he flies, enticed by tlie smell, siiuii swarmed around tin-schem-ing biitracbian. ami whenever one pass ed within two inches or so of his nose bis tongue darted out and the fly disappeared. The plan workeil so well that the toad imide a regular business of it. Fever* nnd In typlioid level tlie intestines are the seat of the trouble, mid nil solid food- should be debiirrixl.
