#4 The bird 1 remember with the most amusement was a dilatory felâ€" low who never got round to his job until near sunset. _ Evidently he had contracted to deliver just so many warnings per diem; and inâ€" variably he got so,.busy chasing inâ€" sects, enjoying the sun, gossiping with a friend, and generally fooling about, that the late afternoon caught him unawares with never a chirp accomplished. So he sat in a bush and said his say over and over just as fast as he could, withâ€" out pause for breath or recreation. It was really a good deal of a feat. Just at dusk, after two hours of gabbling, he would reach the end of his contracted number. With a final relieved chirp, he would thereupon cease until the next a‘ternoon. Another feathered pedagogue was wontinually warning us to go slowâ€"â€" very good advice in an African junâ€" gle. ‘"Poleyâ€"poley ! poleyâ€"poley |" he said again and again; which is good Swahili for "Slowly! slowly !"‘ We always minded him. tom their days this The law January they m mon. T present The African bird is inclined to be didactic. He believes you need adâ€" vice, and he means to give it. To that end he repeats the same thing over and over until he thinks you surely cannot misunderstand. One chap, whom we call the lawyerâ€" bird, and who lives in the trecetops, has four set phrases to impart. He says them very deliberately, with due pause between each; then he repeats them rapidly ; finally he eays them all over again with an exasperated bearingâ€"down emphaâ€" Some of their notes have a richâ€" ness and depth of timbre perhaps unequalled elsewhere. The chimeâ€" bird has a remarkably deep and melodious dowble note; the bellâ€" bird tolls like a cathedralâ€"bell in the blackness of the forest ; and the bottleâ€"bird apparently pours gurgâ€" ling liquid gold from a silver jug. As the jungle is well populated with these feathered specialists, the early morning chorus is wonderful. Africa may not possess the soloists, butbit.s full orchestral effects are suâ€" perb. & The Jungle Is Well Populated With Feathered Specialists. It has been said that African birds are "songless.‘"‘ That is a eareless remark that can easily be taken to mean that African birds are silent. The person who made it must have been thinking of some of the great feathered soloists of this country or of England. From Stewart Edward White‘s account in "‘The Land of Footprints,‘"‘ it apâ€" pears that the African birds, alâ€" though they may not be great singâ€" ers, are vocal enough, for all that. is the summer. The excessive heat throws the little stomach out of order so quickly that unless prompt aid is at hand the baby may be beyond all human help before the mother realizes he is ill. Summer is the season when diarrhoea, cholâ€" era infantum, dysentery and colic are most prevalent. Any one of these troubles may prove deadly if not promptly treated. During the summer the mother‘s best friend is Baby‘s Own Tablets. They reguâ€" late the bowels, sweeten, the stomâ€" ach and keep baby healthy. The Tablets are sold by medicine dealâ€" ers or at 25 cents a box from The Ir. Williams‘ Medicine Co., Brockâ€" ville. Ont.

But the masculine names are nothing compared with the femiâ€" nine. In fact the sailor‘s devotion to feminine names almost staggers the imagination. There are over one hurdred varieties which range metaphorically from Dan to Beerâ€" sheba, literally from Ann to Zoe. There are aristocratic ones such as Euphemia and Milliceto and all the home favorites such as Lizzie and Libbie and Addie and Carrieâ€"but never a Carrie Nation. Among the Jennies *there is a Jeanne d‘Arc, and among the Annies an Annie Laurie. Some famous names aro, however, neglected. There is no Maud Muller in the fiotills of Maunds! no Little Mabel among the Mabels; no Ida M. Tarbell amongst the Idas. The lack of a Terpsichore is atoned for by many musical ships, such as Andante, Crescendo and Eri King. On the whole the sailor‘s musical fancy seems to turn to musical comedy with light opera. (iilbert, the playwright, has a flagship of his own escorted by the Mikado and the Iolanthe; but H. M. 8. Pinafore is strangely missing, and Sullivan, his musical collabâ€" orator, is completely unknown. But it may be that the growth of Canada‘s shipping trade will proâ€" vide room for this and other names which have been so far omitted, in newspaper parlance, solely for lack of space. The fascination of some of the heroines of the footâ€"lights has not been unrecorded. There are ships called Edna May, the Jersey Lily, and Julia Oppâ€"after the wife of Mr. Faversham, Maud Allan and Mazurka keep time toâ€" gether. Quick Step bridges the gulf between the classical dancers and the dashing College Widow, which is George Ado‘s contribution to the Canadian marine. The ships Alhambra and Tivoli betray a knowledge of London Music Halls ; so that, all told, the sailor, it must be admitted, knows Who‘s Who in dramatic circles. In spite, however, of these eviâ€" dences of erudition we have to tax the sailor with a neglected educaâ€" tion. The fault may be due to biâ€" lingualism, but at any rate ship names abound in misâ€"spellings. Goliah does duty for Goliath. Lia for Leah, and Lidie for the diminâ€" utive of Lydia. But the worst is the "(Germainnia,‘"‘ a ship owned by a Frenchman on the Lower St. Lawrence, who learned his English, as many other Frenchâ€"Canadians have doneâ€"under a Cockney inâ€" structor. ter Scott is remembered by a nameâ€" sake ship, and a score of Ladies of the Lake. There is no evidence of a nautical interest in popular ficâ€" tion. There is nothing later than Uncle Tom, Topsy and Benâ€"Hur. The sailor whose favorite muses are those of history and heroic poetry naturally disdains the best sellers. The poetry the sailor reads is likeâ€" wise oldâ€"fashioned. _ Shakespeare, strange to relate, has no ship to himself, but Ophelia and Romeo are remembered. The ships Zuleika and Mazeppa recall Byron, and Minnehaha â€" suggests Longfellow. No doubt 15â€"inch guns and armored turrets _ will demand names of greater explosiveness and velocity, something perhaps from Kipling or Robert Service. The paucity of literary ships seems to hint that the sailor is not a great reader. The shipping list does not resemble a college curriâ€" culum or a bookseller‘s advertiseâ€" ment. Of novelists we find Hugo, whose ‘"‘Toilers of the Deep‘‘ no doubt recommended him. Sir Walâ€" The Canadian shipping list reads like an atlas or a journal of exâ€" ploration. _ The sailor‘s general geographical interest is shown in the names of many distant counâ€" tries, such as Arabia and Armenia, and especially on the Pacific coast, in Javanese appellations, such as Shinyei Maru, Herschel, recalling as it does the great English astronâ€" omer, indicates an interest in celesâ€" tial phenomena, which is confirmed by Orion, Gemini, Uranus, and names of other constellations, beâ€" sides a host of Stars and Stellas. That there are still difficulties in spite of these twinkling aids to navigation seems to be the lesson of the ships White Squall, Ice Surge and Rocket. But the fact that the sailor does not fear to call his ships after the elements which are his enemies shows that he is not suâ€" perstitious. On this principle Gerâ€" man names would by no means be words of ill omen for Canadian cruisers. FAMOUS NAMES OX VESSELS HISTORY, MUSIC, LITERATURE â€"SAINTS AND SINNERS. Choice of Appellations Varied and Versatileâ€"Desire for Happiâ€" ness and Virtue. The Feminine in Evidence. Literary Efforts Few. Music in Evidence. A Poor Speller. t ED. 7. A young preacher picked up Bishâ€" op Pierce‘s hat and put it on his own head and it was exactly a fit. ‘‘Why, Bishop,"‘ said he, "your head and mine are exactly the same size.‘" ‘""Yes," replied the Bishop, ‘"‘on the outside.‘"‘ It would not be well to conclude without mention of the great numâ€" ber of Shamrocks and Thistles and the even more numerous Maple Leafs. The shipping register is as it were a log book of Canadian his tory. It shows that English, Seotâ€" tish, Irish and French elements have united to form a Canadian marine. The Britannias and Briâ€" tish Lions sail or steam amicably beside the Canadas and Beavers. It is a little difficult to tell from these ships‘ names whether our sailors advocate cash contribution or whether they are in favor of naâ€" val autonomy. They seem at any rate to practise some kind of Imâ€" perial coâ€"operation. A Happy Family. (On the whole the names he has given to his ships seem to show that the sailor‘s lot is as happy as his tastes and character are varied and versatile. He looks on the bright side of things. He calls no vessel The Wreck. The comradeship of friends and brethren is recorded by such ships as the Two Friends and The Four Brothers. The steamer (Golden Rule, Good Intent and Happy Homes clearly indicate that the sailor‘s main desire is for hapâ€" piness and virtue. There should be no difficulty in persuading Canaâ€" dian youths to serve on ships like these. It may be that the problem of naval recruiting will be best solved by the judicious selection of attractive ship names. ‘"I want to ask you a question, dad,‘" said a lad to his parent. ‘"Ask your mother?‘ answered the tired father. ‘‘Well, but it isn‘t a silly question I wanf to ask you." "All â€"right,""â€"wearilyâ€""what is it ?""‘ "Well, if the end of the earth was to come and it was destroyed when a man was up in an aeroâ€" plane, where would he land when he came down?‘ + Ships like Grit and Tory show a nautical interest in politics; and Dan Patch and Shrubb reveal a fondness for the track and the cinâ€" der path. One ship is also called after a golf course, namely Lambâ€" ton, the appropriateness probably consisting in their common possesâ€" sion of bunkers. Ship names such as Four Idlers, Loafer and Becalmed attest that the sailor occasionally has time on his hands. And that Satan finds mischief for idle hands is revealed in ships which we cannot possibly call good, such as Gambler, Monaâ€" co, Nap and Lucky Jim. That there are crooks in every profession seems to be the lesson of Slippery Joe, though, of course, the name might merely indicate that this parâ€" ticular vessel can outsail any of its rivals. Double interpretations are possible with regard to other names. Geneva, for instance, may refer to Calvin and not to gin; Usher to Poe‘s Fall of the House of Usher and not to Scotch whiskey. Magnum, however, looks as if it reâ€" ferred unmistakably to champagne, but, after all, there is very little evidence of intemperance on board ship. If the names of our future battleships preserve a discreet siâ€" lence on the subject of grog and rum punch it will perhaps be only a just tribute to naval sobriety. Devoted to Saints. Any faults that the sailor may have are more than outweighed by: an enthusiastic devotion to saints. There are more than two hundred Saints‘ names on the shipping reâ€" gister. St. George is the most popâ€" ular for steam craft, but St. Joseph heads the poll for the sailing vesâ€" sels. Probably no boat bears a more unique name than the good ship St. Joseph Three Salmon. Possibly the Western grain growâ€" ers might forego their opposition to a navy if the battleships were callâ€" ed by such names as Manitoba No. 1 Hard or Alberta Alfalfa. I Matrimony Excepted. _ _ There are plenty of endearing terms such as Gazelle, and promâ€" ises of fidelity such as True Love, but very little hint of matrimony, except in the Village Bride. And there is no reference to babies nearer than Winslow, the famous soothing syrup. The evidence of the shipping list seems to confirm the sailor‘s reputation as a winking light of love. Only one ship, Veuve, backs up W. W. Jacobs‘ theory that bargemen and other mariners have a penchant for wiâ€" dows. Delilazah and Vampire seem to indicate that at times the course of love does not run smooth for the sailor, but no ship is as vituperaâ€" tive as The Serpent‘s Tongue of William Watson.

Unfortunately this sire became so dangerous, viciously attacking the people who would befriend him, that he was lately condemned to be shot. The sentence, however, was commuted to imprisonment for life in the London Zoo, whither he was transported on a battleship and where he now dwells in an admired captivity in Regent Park. ‘"I never knew a clock on a manâ€" telpiece which kept good time," said Mr. Hutton, the Woolwich (England) magistrate, in a case where such a clock had been stolen.

Manufacture Attended by Curious Religious Ceremonials. The manufacture of the exquisite swords, of Japan is attended by curâ€" ious religious ceremonials. On the walls of the houses in which the work is done are representations of the god of the swordmakers and the chief goddess, Ame Terasu. There are also rectangular bits of prayer paper and ropes of strawâ€" charms to keep away evil spirits. No woman is allowed to enter the place, since the presence of women is supposed to be conducive to the appearance of demons, who would certainly bring disaster to the honâ€" orable sword.. Prayer is offered before the work is begun, and varâ€" fous religious rites must be perâ€" formed before any one of the swords can be declared well and truly made. \ Wherever the making of metal swords may have originated, the chief fame belongs, of course, to Damascus, where these weapons have been made from time immorâ€" ial. But almost equally famous are the swords of Khorassan. The best Eastern blades are, however, at least equaled toâ€"day by those of European manufacture, which is evident when we note that Eurâ€" opean swords are often met with in Asiatic hands, though in most cases they have been remounted in Eastern style to suit the fancy of their owners. Just before the final polishing and sharpening of the swords they are offered, one by one, for the blessâ€" ing of the sword god. The weapon is placed in front of the kakemona on the wall, with an offering of sage, rice, and sweetmeats, after which prayer scrolls are read and a blessing on the work is invoked. _ ENGLISH SOYVEREIGNS LUCKY.

Moving pictures have just been made at the rate of one hundred thousand a second in contrast with the rate of fifteen or twenty a secâ€" ond, which is enough when reproâ€" duced on a screen to give the eye the impression of a continuous picâ€" ture. The only thing that moves fast enough to make such tremendâ€" ous speed worth using is a bullet, and some extraordinary pictures of bullets have been taken at this rate, seventyâ€"two pictures being taken of a revolver bullet as it moved ten inches from the muzzle. Instead, a ser.ies of electric sparks was flashed, the sparks folâ€" lowing one another at the rate of one hundred thousand a second, each spark making a picture. The film was mounted on a wheel about three feet in circumference, and the wheel was revolved at the rate of nine thousand revolutions a minâ€" ute. When all was ready the bulâ€" let was shot, the spark flashed and the wheel revolved, the actual exâ€" posure being limited to a fraction of a second so as not to pile up pictures one over the other.
