Drinking Toasts.
The bit of toasted bread that was
deemed such an important ingredi
ent in many an old time drink was
considered a morsel of honor and
fell to the one whose turn came last
to sip from the common cup.
The very name toast calls up a
host of anecdotes. The well known
one of the accomplished Judge Sto
ry at a dinner in honor of Everett’s
appointment as ambassador to the
court of St. James is especially
graceful.
“Genius—sure to be welcomed
where Everett goes.”
The next response to this was:
“Law, equity and jurisprudence—
no efforts can raise them ubove one
Story.”
Alphonse Karr, one of the dain
tiest of writers, once gave a toast
at a dinner of physicians by pro
posing “the health of the sick.”

Origin of Dog Days.
Amnn<r t.lie ancient dog days
comprised the period of the great
est heat in summer. They began on
July 5 and continued until Aug. 11.
The appellation is derived from the
heliacal rising and setting of Sirius,
(lie dog star, meaning the time
when that star, after being prac
tically in conjunction with the sun
and invisible, emerges from the
light so as (o be visible in the morn
ing after sunrise, explains the New
York Telegram. To this conjunc
tion was ascribed a malignant in
fluence. Dog days originated in
Egypt, whence the superstitious
feeling gradually spread throughout
the world and still exists among the
credulous.
MQNARCHS OF THE AIR.
Ethics of Visiting.
The two children were playing in
the yard at the home of Constance.
She rempmbered the teaching of
her parents, but she wished to play
a certain game and Taylor desired
to play another game.
‘‘You ought to play my game,”
said Taylor, “because I’m your vis
itor, and you ought to do what 1
want to do.”
Constance realized the truth of
this, yet she did not wish to give in
to her little friend.
“Let’s go over to your house,
Taylor,” she said. — Indianapolis

Wonderful Flights of the Frigate Bird
and Albatross.
Early in the morning the great
vulture of North Africa leaves his
aerie in the mountains and soars
away into the sky, rising to such a
height that the human eye, strain
ing against the sun bathed sky, fails
to perceive him.
All day long, hour after hour, he
swings or hovers, never dropping
unless his keen eyes perceive car
rion beneath, and not until sunset
does he wing his way hack, appar
ently as fresh as when he started.
This vulture has been watched by
the hour through powerful tele
scopes and never once seen to give
so much as a single flap with his
wings.
For a very long time the common
explanation of soaring flight was
that soaring birds like the vulture
took advantage of air currents. It
is a fact that some birds like the
albatross need a breeze to enable
them to sail through the air, but
there are others, such as the frigate
or man-of-war bird, which can rise
in the calm and float all day with
out a motion of their broad pinions.
The wings of the frigate bird
have an expanse of ten to twelve
feet, and it can fly at any pace up to
]00 miles an hour and can remain
for a week on the wing without
once perching.
Tiie albatross of the southern
hemisphere has been known to fol
low a sailing ship for a fortnight
at a time, apparently never resting.
Its wing expanse is greater than
that of the condor, one bird that
was shot off the Cape of Good Hope
measuring seventeen and a half feet
from wing tip to wing tip.
From these figures it might be
gathered that the larger the wing
expanse of any particular bird the
greater its powers of flight. Yet
the powers of flight in various birds
are not bv any means proportionate
to the Deanng surface of theiV
wings.
The stork, for instance, can fly
magnificently. On its annual mi
gration it covers two to three thou
sand miles and will cross the MwL-
itcrrancan witli the greatest case.
Now, the stork weighs eight times
as much as the pigeon, yet in pro
portion to its weight has only half
as much wiug surface.
But a bird of prey mus't be able
to do much more than support its
own weight in the air. It has to
lift its kill from the ground and
carry it perhaps many miles up into
the mountains.
What such a bird is capable of
may be realized when it is said that
an eagle weighing about eight
pounds has been seen to pick up
and carry off a young pig weighing
more than double as much as itself.
And there are many cases on record
of eagles having carried off children
weighing with their clothes over a
stone.—Pearson’s Weekly.
Both Dead.
A little girl who lived opposite a
large orphan asylum had a small
guest visiting her, who asked In
wonder:
“Whnt’s that big building over
there, Ruthie?”
“Why. that,” said Ruthie, “is
where the orphans live—lots and
lots of ’em. little hoys and little
girls—an’ Mr. and Mrs. Orphan are
both dead!”—Everybody’s.
Below the Scale.
A man who looked like a tramp
went into a Walnut street bookstore
and started out again almost im
mediately. A clerk called after him,
“What did you want?” “I came in
here lookin’ fer work” responded
the seedy wayfarer, “but T see there
you’ve got a sign, ‘Dickens Works
Here All This Week For $6.’ I’d
rather starve than work for them
wages.”—Philadelphia Public Led
