Wery closely love and death dwall to
gether—high up In the world of nature
and low down! The following well
authenticated story comes from North-
amptonshire: A sparrow hawk was
killed when feeding her young, Four
days later when the nest was exam-
ined it was found that the ‘ittle male
bird, working aloge for the family,
had brought home forty-eight birds—
viz, six larks, nine swallows, one bull-
finch, seven robins, six spar:ows, six
hedge sparrows, nine blue tits, three
chaffinches and one wren.
What a spirit of dutifulness along
with ferocity is here exhibited on the
part of the small widower hawk, who
evidently thought that the best way of
respecting the memory of ais departed
consort was to feed her children welll
And in doing this how absolutely ob-
; livious nature had rendered him of
the feelings of the poor larks, swal-
lows, bullfinches and robins, whose
offspring—or the parents themselves—
his relentless parental affection thus
annexed! The direst cruelty animated |
by the tenderest love! The most sav-
age egotism prompted by an entire un-
selfishness! Such are some of the
problems which nature furnishes, but
will not solve.—London Telegraph.

those who have changed their minds.
The bill was for $50 for material and

Putney and the other on Manchester
street. The dress in question had been
made at Putney, but if it had been
made at the Manchester street estab-

$75. although there would have been
no difference whatever in material or
workmanship, Prices, she said, were
regulated by locality, and, although
Putney is socially irreproachable, it
is not quite equal to Manchester street.
The price of a dress is therefore In-

than of quality, and for this side light

may be duly grateful.—Argonaut.

that some of the tenors and prima
donnas use an astringent gargle when-
ever their vocal cords become so re-
fused that very high notes are difficult
emit. Ome famous little tenor used
cold tea that had drawn a long time.
Such a gargle, though, does not lm-
prove the quality of the voice, even If
it does raise the pitch temporarily.
The popular gargle among opera art-
ists is the solvent. It loosens crusts
which form in the throat and nasal
cavities and removes mucous which
cannot be got rid of by coughing and
hawking. A common wash is twelve
grains of chlorate of potash to a wine-
glassful of warm water. Many singers
and orators in order to render their
voices clear and mellow use a gargle
containing one teaspoonful of common
salt and one of baking soda in a tum-
blerful of water. These gargles are im-
proved by further adding some aro-
matic substances to stimulate the mu-
cous membrane with which they come
in contact.—New York Press.
