walking on the beach, not very far from
tho Clllt house, and I had Jnst noticed that
an usually largo number of sea gulls were
flying over tho sands, when a- hard sub
stance struck mo violently upon the head
and staggered roe. Luckily my' hat was
very thick and I nm blessed with a tolera
bly solid skull. So I Boon recovered my
self, and I was looking about to ascertain
what had hit me, when I was greatly
startled by a weird and ghostly fluttering
of wings a foot above mo. A great gray
gull had narrowly escaped alighting upon
my shoulders. ,He Just succeeded in check
ing his Impetuous descent as his feet al
most touched mo. With a queer kind of
halt frightened cry he was again into the
air. But what had brought him so close
to mef I soon found out. Lying on tho
sand was tha thing that had given mo
that blow upon the head. It was a large
black mussel, and the sea gull had dropped
it from a dizzy height upon my unoffend
ing scalp.
I have studied the habits of these
birds pretty carefully, aud I know very
well why ho had done it. Ho. was trying
to get at his dinner, and as the shell of
the mussel was still unbroken, and I
wished to see him try again, I walked a
couple of hundred yards away and then
turned to watch his movements. See
' ing that the coast was clear, he quickly
flew back to the place where the mussel
had fallen, seized it in his beak and, again
rising high into the air.Jie lot it drop.
He followed it closely as It fell, keeping
almost besido it during tho greater part of
tbe descent, and only moderating his
downward rush when he was in danger of
dashing himself upon the beach.. The
mussel struck the sand, but the shell was
still unbroken, and, indeed, it was veryt
evident to me that the soft ground that
received it would never lay it open. Then
1 flung the mussel to a distance, and ths
gull, seeming to taxe ims as a mui, ui
my head was not a chopping block, seized
hfs troublesome delicacy and flew away.

Power of a Kind Voles.
There is no power ot love so hard to get
and keep as a kind voice. A kind hand is
deaf and dumb. It may be rough in flesh
and blood, yet do the work ot a soft heart
and do it with A soft touch. But there is
no one thing that love so much needs as
a sweet voice to tell what it means nd
feels; and it is hard to get and keep it in
the right tone. One must start In youth
and bo on the watch night and day, at
Work and play, to get and keep a voice
that shall speak at nH times the thoughts
of a kind heart. It Is often in youth tha
pne gets a voice or a tone that Is sharp,
and sticks to him through life, and stirs
up ill Will and grief, and falls like a drop
of gallon the syveet joys of home. Watch
It day by day as a pearl of great price, for
it will be worth more to you in days to
coma than the best pearl hid in the sea,
A fcind voice is to the heart what light is
to the eye, It is a light that sings as well
as shines. Elihn Burritt,
