the hours possibly on this porch—sne
had her tea out there and a buttered
biscuit, when she felt inclined; fruit,
and a fruit knife, a small plate for
paring and cores and seeds were on
one of her numerous tables.”
To the nervous persons who should
not walk much, and need the open
air, these conveniences for living on
the porch, and not having to run in
continually for anything wanted will go
far toward their recovery, and where
there’s an invalid to whom this porch
life is beneficial the members of the
family should provide all these little
conveniences and not consider them
as litter or disorder.
Live outdoors all you can if your
lungs need the oxygen, but remember
there are some persons who can take
too much air, and many people find
too much sun injurious to nerves and
eyes. We should take the open air
with sense and judgment.

A SAILOR ROOK.
Many years ago as the whaling ship
Diana was returning from a voyage in
the Arctic ocean her captain and crew
were surprised one day to see a rook
in a state of great exhaustion flutter
into the rigging. The nearest land
was more than 200 miles away, so
such a visitor was quite unexpected.
With great care and gentleness the
bird was caught, and after receiving
as much attention as any storm tossed
traveler would require it was offered
its liberty again. But, though thor
oughly restored to health and vigor, it
refused to leave the ship. With loud
caws of contentment it would hop
about the deck as though that were
its real home, and when darkness set
tled down upon the ocean it retired
into the rigging, there to roost as
comfortably as any of its stay-at-home
relations among their leafy elms.
When the Shetland Islands were reach
ed the captain of the Diana sent his
feathered passenger on shore, natu
rally thinking that this would be in
accordance with its wishes. But the
next day, when the ship was forty
miles farther on the route to Hull and
land was quite out of sight, the sailors
saw a dark speck in the sky, which
grew and grew til, to their astonish
ment and delight, the passenger they
had left behind fluttered joyously on
board, cawing its satisfaction at reach
ing home once more, if not reproving
them for giving it the slip.
After that there was no more
thought of parting and this Columbus
of the bird world became a great fav
orite with all on board. Sad to say,
when the journey’s end was reached
at Hull, the poor bird, which had
found upon the stormy sea such sym
pathy and kindness, was attacked by
a party of ignorant boys and killed.
SHAVED OFTEN.
‘‘You must drink hot water with
your whiskey,” the doctor told his pa
tient, ‘‘otherwise, you mustn’t take it
at all.”
‘‘But how shall I get the hot wa
ter?’ the patient queried plaintively.
‘‘My wife won’t let me have it for the
whiskey toddy.”
‘‘Tell her you want to shave,” the
doctor said, and took his departure.
The next day the doctor called and
asked the wife how the patient was.
‘‘He’s gone raving mad,” his wife
replied. ‘‘He shaves every ten min
utes.” —-Philadelphia Ledger.
