Vk Kind t Note Best Ite4 For , lam naase Sla-I. Signals made by sounds of explosion lure not the most reliable. Their pene tration is obviously often uncertain, while, their duration being brief, they may be missed by momentary Inatten tion. The reed horn was the more effi cient Instrument as compared with guncotton cartridges over London. The alren would probably nave been yet more efficient as also doubtless a horn capable of producing two notes differ ing, say, by the interval of a third or a fifth, a conclusion arrived at , many years ago by experiments which have been unhappily too much lost sight of. Professor Fiazzl Smith found by trial that a high note was generally more penetrating as a signal, but advised that such-a note should not be used alone, assigning as one reason that in dividuals possess note deafness similar to color blindness, so that no one note could be trusted. Experiments went to prove that a sound varying between a high and a low note best arrested at tention at long range., t And the same result has been arrived at in another way. The peculiar cry of the Alpine guide, which Is, in fact, of that nature which Professor Smith ad vocates, has doubtless been taught by the exigencies of his situation, where his voice Is required to carry across broad and deep ravines. Nature has taught the same lesson In the Austra-1 llan wilds, where the characteristic "Cowl, cowl!" appears essential to pen etrate the deep woods. Nor indeed need we look farther for an example of the same kind than our own village lanes. The high pitched voices of children are very farreacbing. Their shouting can be beard farther away in the sky than that of man, and in calling to their fellows they always employ a trick of the voice taughtXtended vlsit-to-the -country he bad so donbtless by experience. , The child will summon her playmate from far away with a well practiced "Sally,' the first syllable, high pitched and pro longed, giving place to the second syl lable uttered abruptly In a yet higher note. And -this mode of calling is uni versal Nineteenth Century. THE TURQUOISE. The turquoise, the blrtbetone-for De cember, signifies prosperity. t The turquoise was a familiar and fa vorite gem among the ancient Mexi cans and Indians of the west. The turquoise fades when its owner is ill, and dies when the wearer is at tacked by an incurable malady so they The Germans claim that by Its vary ing shades the turquoise turns telltale on the caprices and . moods of its wearer. Shakespeare gives these words to Shy lock: "He would, not have lost his turquoise ring for a whole wilderness of monkeys." The turquoise derives Its name from word meaning T Ornish ana is so called because the first turquoises were found in Turkey, - - ,i If your birthday comes in December and you wear a turquoise, yon need never be afraid of falling off a high place. One of the powers of the azure bued gem la to preserve its wearer from this. catastrophe. It Is also said that It bat the power of protecting Its wearer against" con tagion. A turquoise would certainly be an ornamental substitute for vacci nation. Its efficiency would probably depend upon the "faith" of the wearer. Rubblta at Play. - Babbits play in this way; Twd of them I have not seen it played with more run quickly toward each other. and when on the point of contact each leaps into the air, but one higher than the : other,; clearing him ; completely. They come down with their tails to ward each other, but Instantly, with an, as it were, "Excuse my tall!" both turn and run and leap again, and this they will do from two or three to' naif A dozen times, always leaping up at the exact moment when they would otherwise come Into collision and one always, taking the higher leap some times an astonishingly high one right over his companion. - They never meet in the air, nor can I see how this can be avoided except by a plan or figure being mutually followed by them, as with ourselves in a game or dance. 1 believe that each clears the other al ternately, but I have not yet convinced myself of this.

"Some peculiar conditions prevail at the twin cities of Nogales, Mexico, and Kogales, Arix," said the Detroiter, who recently returned from a visit to Mexico. "The international boundary line is formed by a street that divides the two towns, and tho boundary! stakes are set out with a very nice regard for technicalities. There is a saloon there which has more- than a local reputation, andthe proprietor la certainly an enterprising individual. His saloon is located on the street di viding the two counties and at a point where the dividing line Is not clearly defined. The patron of this saloon buys his drink in America, and, step ping across the hall, he buys his elg-.u in Mexico.

' In wide and sparsely populated high land districts of Scotland it not infre quently happens that a parent is oblig ed to walk a distance of five or Lx miles with an Infant for baptism, It Is related of a minister of the north that be agreed toacoommodte a parishioner thus situated by meet Ing him at a stream midway between the parents' house and the manse and there baptizing the child st the run ning water. It so happened that by the time the parties came to opposite sides of the bourn heavy rains had swoIlenit into a rapid torrent, so that neither party could approach the other. ' . Unwilling to. turn back with the bairn"'i nnbaptized, the farmer pro posed that the minister should splash water across. Accordingly the minister stepped down to the stream and en deavored to throw bandfuls of water on the farmer's baby. "Ha'e ye got ony o thatf be cried at each successive splash. "De'U a spalrge," was the reply. At last, a few of the splashes were communicated ' to the infant s face. and the ceremony was then concluded In the usual form. Before retiring to their respective homes the farmer produced' a bottle of whisky,; crying across, "As I canna offer ye a glass owre the held o' thls, here's the bottle kepp!" And he threw it across the stream. , The bottle was caught, It Is related. with a precision that betokened on the part of his reverence, If not considera ble practice, at least considerable dex terity.

Nynee Tak. the heudman of the little village under the shadow of the Chit toor hills of India, bad been summon ed, and there was a great excitement. He had been in peaceful possession of ten acres of fertile laud for the lust fifteen years, and for a decade he had ruled over the 200 villagers. Nynee Tak was a good man and a just man. and ofttlmes meu journeyed half a hundred miles to ask his advice. Ills word among his people was law. an the British civil commissioner held no court in the village. f There had long Deen peace ana good win wnen xne summons suddenly came. A strange and a white man had laid claim to Nynee Tak's acres, and the Juet niau was notified to appear at Keemutch on a certain date and defend his title. When he had mastered, the words of the paper, he was In despair, and when he had explained them to his people they cried out In indignation. Nynee Tak had no papers to support bis claim. He was a squatter. In wandering over the country he had come upon this fertile spot and built him a hut and staked out a modest claim. Others had followed him, and years had passed, and no one had ! een dlsthrbed. Now, under some act of government, a white man had secured legal rights, and the old man realized that there could be but one result he and ail others would be dispossessed. "I will go down to Neemutcb aud ap pear before the sahib judge." he said to his people, "but when t return it will be to tell you that we must go. Our rights cannot stand against the laws of the Ferlngee." On the date specified he appeared in court It was made plain to him that be hnd no legal rights. No rood of land on earth was free to man. It must be bought and paid for. whether on the mountain, down in the valley or In the wilds of the jungle. A white man had paid the government gold for this village site, nd the villagers to the last man must go elsewhere. Where they should go. where they should find other lands, it did not mat ter, but In two weeks they must be gone. Nynee Tak And his people bad cleared away, acres of .jungle and dug two miles of ditches, but they could not. expect pay for this, Tbey had lived while they worked, ' and what more could they ask? The court look ed at least for protestations on the part of the old man. but none came. When he saw that ally words from him would be wasted, he simply lifted his head and whispered: "Great is the sahiT judge. I will go back to. my people and tell them that we must move." ; ' , ! A week later a lieutenant and fifteen men from the garrison of Neemutch were sent over to the village to see that the order of dispossession was carried out. They were ITeringees and bad no sympathy for the natives. If the villagers . packed their belongings and stole quietly away, well and good; If they were inclined to bang on, then the huts '-would be burned over their beads and the butts of muskets used to club - them Into submission, The sixteen men went Into camp on a grassfield to the north of the village. and the officer called the villagers to gether that evening and read them the legal notice and haughtily added: "At noon tomorrow you will go. The law says so, and I say so, and who of you dares dispute?" "We will go,, sahib officer." humbly replied Nynee Tak as be bowed his head. "We must wander about to starve and become food for the jackals. bnt that is nothing to the law. At high noon we will go." That night the women began making up bundles of clothing and the men to gather food for a journey, and there were curses, tears and wallings. Ny nee Tak sat apart by himself and tept bis eyes on the ground, and. though often spoken to, be made no reply. It was only when the officer sent down a messenger to say that If the noise In the village did not cease be would be gin driving out the people that the old man raised his head and said to the cursing men and weeping women: Hush! Be quiet! It is the law. We will go, and we will not lay hand on these men who mock ns in our misfor tune, but nevertheless we shall - be avenged. Seek your beds and leave ma alone." . A quarter of an hour later the vil lage was qaiet, and Nynee Tak picked op bis flute of reed and wandered along the edge of the jungle above the soldiers' encampment As he wander ed he played soft and low music, and. though it was heard by the drowsy sol diers, it soothed them. Back and forth for a full hour paced the old man, and he smiled as he beard the rustlings in the dry grass and the close thickets. By and by he returned to the village and his but Of - all the people only bis wife was awake. She looked at him for a long time and then asked; f Have you been calling the cobras to avenge os?

At noon tomorrow we must go." When the morning came, the soldiers In the grassfield did not stir. At 8 o'clock they were still In their tents; at JO not one hnd appeared; at noon the people wondered. "It Is noon, and we must go," said Nynee Tak as he lifted up his bundle. Ha led the way, and the villagers fol lowed him. His steps led past the camp of the soldiers, and as the home less people looked Into the tents they. saw only dead urea. The cobras had come out of the jungle, twenty, fifty, a hundred, and bitten the Ferlngees as they slept struck their poisoned fungs into each and every one. "It is the law, and we must go, whispered Nynee Tnk. "but we have left something behind to prove that We once dwelt here." M. QUAD. TAME FISH IN A RIVER. A Traveler' Story of "What I Saw la Upper Barma. When in camp the other day, I was riding through a village when the vil lage headman asked me if I would like to see, "the fish." I, not knowing what the headman meant, at once went with him down to the banks of the stream. followed by several villagers with baskets of sessanuui and paddy mixed together. Then the thuggi called "Lay. lay, lay, lay," for a few moments, when, lo and behold, a large .herd of ngatwe, or big, short, flattish fish came up just under our feet and were promptly fed by the Burmans. The fish were amazingly tame and tolerated being stroked and petted even by me. There were In all about thirty-three of them, varying In size from eighteen inches to three and a half feet long, the larger ones having a girth at the gills of about thirty inch es. They would go away and come back whenever they were called. The villagers told me and I see no reason to doubt what they say that these same fish come up against the monsoon flood at the end of June and go away about October every year, They can recognize Individual fish by marks, scars, etc., which they pointed out to me. The Mon is nearly dry in the cold and end of the hot weather, and the fact that these fish return to this one village landing stage every year reg ularly and never go to any other is quite worthy of remark. A villager who kills any of them has to undergo a pen'alty of 10 shillings by common consent and great care Is in conse quence taken of them. The ngatwe of upper Burma is a ver; short, thick fish, tapering rapidly from behind the gills to the tail, has long feelers on both upper and lower lip and has no noticeable teeth. He makes very good eating and has but few bones. I have often heard of tame fish In tanks, but a herd of tame flsb in a monsoon river connected with the great Irawadl is a very bizarre phe nomenon.
