Tbe birds sent to Europe, no doubt taken as nestlings in tbe majori ty of instances, remain usually wild and suspicious, though they bear con finmxtent well and do not suffer from the cold. At hone in Australia the cockatoo is not beloved ot the farmer, and it can beweff imagined that a flock cf them upon tbe crops.

Bra* «> • Pwelauer ot rtanrtitr Every now aod then there crops out in this republic the notion that if our more cultured mtinens were our rulers that we should be much better off. We very much doubt it If our more man ly citizens could rule us, then no doubt we should be better off. But there is a freakiness and finicalnfm, an inability to give and take, a general rubbing and creaking of machinery among men de valued only on the one side of the mind, which always euaywhere makes them objectionable as rulers. Boxing is just as likely to make a man meek as books, but if you have a bully to deal with neither the boxing nor toe books will avail anything, and he becomes al most more objectionable as an editor than as a prizefighter. Os course sport will fail, just as every other agency will fail, with certain men. On the other hand, for the great majority of men, well conducted sport will teach them fortitude, gentleness, meekness and fair play as no other agency yet in vented by man can da—Outing. A Fuay Mistake. A servant lass at an inn once made a funny mistake. Opening the door of one cf the rooms, she aaw, as toe thought, the handle of a warming pan sticking out near the foot of the bed, “Bless me,” she said, “that stupid Martha has left tbe warming pan in toe bed! She might have set the place on fire.” Taking hold of tbe handle, toe gave it a violent jerk, when up jumped an awak ened traveler, shouting lustily: “Hel lo, there!

The result is a crowded restaurant, though the pro prietor is losing money steadily.

With two exceptions the places did not pay, and the men who bought them were com pelled to close them. —New York Com mercial Advertiser. Tbe Schoolyard. To spend large sums cf money on architectural beauties and stone carv ings of historic ornaments —which have but little attraction for children—to make a school building look like a pal ace and then to leave the schoolyard looking like a desert or the .top cf a bi tuminous lake, without a single attrac tive flower or one bit of beauty, are in consistencies which seem possible raly in the modern system of education. Weather beaten bouses in the country, log cabins on the frontiers, railroad sta tions in the Great American desert and all over our country have their beauti ful flower gardens, and it refreshes one's soul to see them, but there is no such source of refreshment, inspiration and instruction where children are be ing educated in the ’ “essentials. ”—Hen ry Lincoln Clapp in Popular Science Monthly.

O A. BsMtaD» u- ...* Shyster axd Jack Leg Lawyers- The people generally find cause for congratulation io the new method for the admission of applicants to the bar in Georgia. What is commonly known as a “jack leg” lawyer » certainly not a Messing in disguise. Three men drag frivolous cases into the courts, their sole pur poses being to extort fees from their unfortunate clients. No one suffers snore from there shysters than the re putable members of the bar them- = selves, but the damage stops neither here nor with the clients represented by these so called lawyers. The courts are burdened with their petty cases, and the money of the tax payers is spent to clear them from the docket While much the larger part of the bar is composed of honest, upright men, who would be an ornament and an honor to any piofesriou, the small per centage composing the shyster or "jack leg” mosnbers of the bar is sufficient to cost the people of the various counties good round sums of money each year. Reputable lawyers suffer and are ' brought into disrepute with a good many people co account of the mis deeds of the shysters with whom they hare been so unfortunate as to have had dealings. Ignorance and competency on the part of some of the men who are ad mitted to the practice of law are large ly responsible for the trouble. Such men are lacking in ability to earn a livelihood by legitimate practice, and i having been admitted, they drift , gradually into rhe way* of *h* shyster < - a.nd the jack leg. The defects in the method of admis sion to the bar in this slate is now sought to be remedied. The supreme court of the state will hereafter forma* let* the questions to be propounded to all applicants for admission to the bar. These questions must be answered in writing and forwarded to the supremo court. The court, witbout even know ing the Dime of the applicant, passes upon each set of papers received, and io thio way every mao who seeks to en ter upon the practice of the hereafter must stand upon his own knowledge of the law. The plan admit* of no favoritism.
