SOME AUSTRALIAN BIRKDs
In variety, beauty of plumage, gorgeousness of coloring, the birds or
Australia are unsurpassed by those in other parts of the world. There may be birds of sweeter song, but none of lovelier appearance. No less than 750 species of birds have been discovered in Australia

are several members of the King isher fam - ily, the most remarkable being the Laugh- , ing Jackass, or “Gogobera” of the natives, It is of some size, being almost as large as
a crow, with a large head and long heavy beak. The feathers are of a brownish tint,

pouncing down upon a@ snake or otner

laughter. The bird is easily tamed, i
bears coufinement well. The Honey Eat- ers form a numerous family, the members of which are always to be found where flowers are most plentiful, especially during springtime and summer. Atnongst them is the Bell Bird, with its clear, ringing metallic note: the Friar Bird, whose low and solemn voice suggests its mame; and the Knite Grinder, with its harsh, sharp strain. There are numerous Fly Catchers, the species peculiar to the col- ony being the Fantail. The Wrens are also largely represenied, the Blue Wren being remarkable for its change of plum- age during certain periods of the year. Jn winter it is plain and unassuming, but when spring arrives it beccmes transported intoa thing of beauty,tLe brillisntcolouring of the male rivalling the gorgeous plumage of tropical birds. With the change of appearance there is also an increase in the power of song. Finches of various kinds are plentiful, relieving, with their vivacity, the monotony of the plains and valleys. The Swallow family is numerous during the summer months, the most beautiful be- ing the Fairy Martain, Welcome Swallow, Tree Swallow, and White-Breasted Swal- low. Nor should the elegant and beauti- fully-plumaged Bee Eater escape mention. [t is one of the harbingers of the Australi- an spring, and is alwaysa welcome visitor
"N PARLIAMENT
( Montreal Gazette: )
MR FfOSTER
The man who has added most to his reputation during the session of parliament just closed is Mr. Foster. He understood the tariff and the finances, and once the government’s policy was made known he made it painfully evident that Mr. Fielding did not. His criticisms of the administra- tion and its policy have been forcetul and convincing, auc time and again he com- pelled ministers to change their measures and retreat from their positions,even when they could count on a majority swallowing almost everything. When Mr. Foster was a minister and Sir Richard Cartwright an opposition critic, it was hard to say which should be accorded the first rank as a | parliamentary debater. With Sir Richard
in power and on the defence, and Mr Fos- ter enjoying the freedom of an opposition i ritic, the doubt is removed. Noone who has listened to Sir Richard’s keen thrusts, bis vocabulary of invective and mastery of his subject would class him as a second rank man either. A great deal of the harm the government has suff-red during the session has been the result of its own acts, but much of it might have passed unnotic- ied by the public, but for Mr. Foster’s keen, The couservative party, and the »C: anadian people, have reason to be proud of such a man.

Most of the European sovereigns are early risers. The Emperor of Austria rises at 4. 30 a. m. in the summer, end
5. a.m. in the winter. The Empress has her bath at four o’clock. The German Emperor gets to work at five o’clock, and often starts out for his morning ride at six v’ clock. The kings of Italy, Roumania, and Sweden and Norway rise at 51x 0’ clock The Queen and Queen-Regent of Holland are also early risers.
Mr. Debs, of Chicago strike fame, has taken the first steps towards setting on foot his sociological colony experiment, through which he proposes to “overcome the selfish, sordid gang who have monopolized the country, by uniting the workers of the country in a great co-operative scheme, in which they sball work together in ha- mony in every branch of industry, virtual y being their own employers and receiving tne whole product of their labor.” M , Debs bas i-sued a call for an assessment on all who have formerly joined Lis organization, and has voted himself a sai- ary.

Some interesting facts concerning the Roentgen rays and diseases of the heart. were brought forth at the recent medical congress at Berlin. Prof. Benedict, of Vienna, said it was possible by the aid of the rays to make much more accurate ob- servations than heretofore,as tothe health of the heart. Dcctors were now in a pos- ition to learn the s:ze and position of the vital organ in cases where the former me- thods of ausculation and percussion had atfurded them no help. By the Roentgen rays it was possible to observe the deter- ivration of the valves at a much earlier stage than previously and to gain exact in- formation as to the r-lations between the heart ani the diaphragm, as well as to ob- serve tLe movements of that membrane. Other doctors stated that in the early diagnosis of tue disease of the lungs,stom- ach and kidneys, the rays rendered doc- tors important assistance; and it would in future be possible to gain a knowledge of diseases at a stage at which they had pre- viously entirely escaped detection,

State Physicians.
Australia, which has led in many so- cialistic experiments made by the state, is now considering the question of state physic. The president of the Queens- land Medical ass®ciation proposes that the country be divided into medical dis- tricts, under doctors paid by the state to look after all the inhabitants, and that the money for the purpose be raised by a poll tax of $2 a year. This would enable the state to pay $1,500 for the lowest medical salaries. A New South Wales labor league has declared that ‘‘the practice of medicine should be a national service,”’
