N g T e e WATER-OUSEL UNUSUAL BIRD Divea to Bottom of Stream and Walks About in ‘Search of . . : L Poed o 4 ! The name water-ousel might suggest -to the unfamiliar mind something in the nature of a fish. But it is a bird, \closely related to the European black('bird, .although possessing strikingly \aquatic habits. for a bird. The water\ousel either dives or sinks quickly to ithe bottom of a stream and walks kabo’u_t or enters crevices in search of |food. : < e % It is a remarkable fact that a Paserine bifd should have adopted this quatic mode of life, says a bulletin f the American Museum of Natural istory. It {llustrates again the atmpts made by birds to avoid competition with other forms of bird life by 'definite change of habits which leads ,f})em into a less frequented area of nature. Exactly how this bird keeps under water “has ‘not yet been learned.: When It rises to the sur"f?ce it shakes its heavy plumage dry in an instant. Its song is strangely . sweet, probably owing.to its relation t;’ the thrush family. ey o The water-ousel is found ‘over the eater part of Great Britain, Europe, northern Asia, Algeria, Asia inor, the Himalayas, and. in the Americas from - Alaska to Peru, along the Rockles, Sierras and Andes. They live-only along torrents and-rap-idfimountaln ‘streams,

SOCIAL STATUS OF TUAREGS

Strange Sahara Tribs Is Divided Into || Five Classes, 'Headed byl . -the Nobles.. @

Socially the Tuaregs of the Sahara are divided into five classes—thaggaren or nobles, marabouts. or. priests, lmghad- or serfs, tregenatten or cross breeds,; indicating the contempt:of the Tuaregs for impurity: of blood, and the slaves. The nobles are all pure blooded {and supply the tribal sheiks, They do no manual work, living in the saddle always. Their only occupgtion, if such it may.be called, Is providing safe convoy for thodk caravans that have paid blackmalil to the chiefs or attacking caravans that have not placated thex};. The imghad or serfs are hereditarlly in this position and cannot rise above it. Their condition s very much like that of the serf class of ‘Furope In the Middle ages. el The cross breeds are mixtures, and they are considered to ‘be below the dignity of serfs through 'the fact’ that they are.of mixed breed,.even though thelr fathers might be of noble stock. The slaves :are of Sudanese Negro stock and aré well treated, being consldered members of the¢ family. Intermarriage with them is, however, forbidden very stringently. -

Sae’s a Heating Engineer.

Another field of endeavor which up to the present has been. deemed exclusively masculine has now been “invaded” by a member of the fﬁeminine sex. It Is the heating and ventilating fleld, and the “invader” is Miss ‘Helen R. Innis, whose official designation is “heating and ventilating engineer” and who is meeting - with great success in her chosen line of endeavor. - She began her technieal career in an office, but later became a student at Pratt’s institute, where she was the only. girl in the class. Her aptitude for the career soon became so appare't_lt that she was enabled to start.an office of her own, which she now conducts with efficiency and happy results.— New York Herald. . - . Y e - : ldie Rich to. Aid Science. Science has developed a new method of financing costly explorations to-far-away places—the scheme being to take along rich jdlers and let -them' foot the bill. - This plan will be put into practice as announced, when the schooner St. Georges. leaves London for a ten months’. cruise among the little known islands of the Pacific. In addition to eight sclentists, about thirty passengers will be aboard, each of whom will pay £BOO for the trip. Sale ‘of motion picturés and descriptions of the explorations will aid in financing the expedition. . = -

The party will travel .ﬂnore,th'an 20,000 miles, covering a period ‘of about 170 days at sea ‘and 140 days ashore.

Grandfather Was Right.

Grandfather had been down town all day, %aying rather late on account of a whist party. Consequently, he did not know the dressmaker was staying overnight. The following morning he went around waking his daughters, as was his custom when feeling unusually fine by singing and telling them the time of the day. When he went into one of his daughters’ rooms he noticed she was “playing possum” with the covers over her head. So with much gusto, singing “’Pon my word; 'tis a lady,” he threw the covers back. It WAS a lady, the poor dressmaker, not his young daughter. Grandfather left for town before the dressmaker came down.—Exchange. i |

SACRIFICE BY SORREL PETE ‘Rancher on Western Prairle Marries . ° Cranky Cook to Oblige’ - : His Old Chum. i T r— i il In the ddor of his ranch house on a western prairie, Pete Harker—known as Sorrel Pere—sat idly when his old chum, Mac| Towles, rode up the trail. “Whoop !l shouted Pete.'*“Jest lbok who’s here| Haven't set eyes on you since you saved my life back yonder.” “No,” agreed Mac; “and speaking of that, I'm here right now to.remind you of the promise you made theén; but I'm most. afraid I'm asking too ‘much.” - | < ST “Sho, Tl bet you. ain't, no. such thing.
