Instanees of Their Gathering and March- ing Awuy Together, Manly Hardy writes to The Forest and Stream about bears that migrated: ‘*The first notice of these migrations is to be found in a book by John Josse- lyn, entitled ‘New England Rareties Discovered,’ published in 1873. In this book he says that great companies of bears sometimes traveled across what is probably the Piscataqua river. ‘* About 70 years ago, early in Septem- ber, my father one night witnessed a bear migration. The night was a dark one. The bears came to the east bank of the Penotscot river in the town of Orrington, about seven miles below Ban- gor. The bears could be heard calling and answering each other till low water, when they took to the water, swam across and landed on the Hampden side. In the morning it was fcgnd that a large number had crossed. My father saw their tracks across a single plank in a shipyard. ‘‘Again, about 30 years ago, a friend of mine, Heury Clapp, who is quoted in Cassino’s ‘Standard Natural History’ as an authority on bears, told me that dur- ing the fall be had gone on a trapping trip, but had found few bears, till one morning in November after a snowfall he found the tracks of nine different bears, all headed up one little valley. For several days after that more bear tracks were found, all headed in the same direction—from east to west. They denned up when it came time to do so, and in the spring headed east again. “It is believed among sportsmen that bears go back into the woods to den up and come to the vicinity of the clear- ings every spring, but extensive migra- tions by bears are as little heard of as those of wild turkeys and prairie chick- ens. What naturalists do not understand is how the animals, which usually scat- ter over miles of territory, know how, when or where to get together for their trips.’’ A Skeleton Key. Spatts—My love, 1 wish you would alter the key of your voice. Mrs. Spatts—What’s the matter of it? Spatts—Oh, nothing.

AYERS A Poor Shot, “‘No, Idon’t charge if to living in a fiat,’’ admitted Flummy slowly to the friends with whom he-was enjoying an evening just a bit convivial. ‘‘I guess I’m more to blame than any one else. ‘““There’s aman rooming just over me that blows a piccolo. If he had any regu- lar hours for turning the piercing music loose, I might adjust myself to the situa- tion. But he hasn't.. He’ll play at sun- rise and at varying intervals he’ll play till the next sunrise. No matter what hour of the night an inspiration, or an imp, seizes him, he’ll jump out ef bed and cut loose. He has a pet cat. that: has his disposition. It doesn’t play the: piccolo, but it is the busiest noysturnal yawper you ever heard. ‘*The other night he waked me by blow- ing to beat a brass band, and at the same time his cat was on. the floor of my flat giving a concert. Here was my chance for sweet revenge, for he thinks as much of that cat as of himself. I seized a small dumbbell, stole stealthily into the hall and let drive with all my might in the diree- tion of the feline voice. There was a yell of pain, followed by a series of yells that proclaimed ‘burglars, murder,’ and the pressing need of ‘help.’ ‘*I shot for my room, but some one click- ed the electric light just as I entered, and soon I was undergoing an investigation, with all the occupants of the flat asking: questions. The man wounded in the shin; by the dumbbell was a new tenant and a, friend of the piccolo fiend. After a long: and heated discussion I settled for $10, Meantime the cat had invaded my room. and killed my pet canary. ‘*T don’t claim that I was blameless, but: Iargued that some sleep is essential, and. I moved,’’—Detroit Free Press. Practice For the Doctor. A.society has recently been formed), al} the members of which pledge themselves to bequeath their dead bodies to the med- by humanity may be benefited. Most wise people will no doubt regard this. as a highly desirable arrangement, but the great majority will look upon it as. uDcanny and opposed to the common sentiment. In all our military stations, however, such as Gibraltar, Malta, etc., a post mor- tem examination is held in every case of death among the soldiers, except when it results from drowning, in which case there can be no possible doubt. This gives the doctors plenty of practice, and probably demonstrates many mis- takes of diagnosis. Very often, in cases of illness among ordinary people, which have resulted in death, it may be presumed that a wrong diagnosis has been made and an unsuitable treatment has consequently followed, the doctor never after knowing of his error, but there can be no chance of such ignorance when a post mortem exam- ination is made. To the young doctors practicing in mil- itary stations this regulation is therefore of incalculable advantage.—Pearson’s Weekly. An Improvement. Art Dealer—The perspective is very fine.
