BIRDS AND DISEASE. Aa Aethortty Who Think* Blrda leee of Cerrytau CoatacieB. tntcrrwted in biidi hare recently been debating the qooMlon whether these creature* are capable of contracting dlseaeea from human beings or of tranemittlng diaoaae to human being!. Expert opinion seemi to be divided. On the one band Dr. K. Ball, director of Geficrderte Welt, in a reoenl letter to the president of the Acclimation society, aaeerta that the tranamiaaion of any disease from a bird man and rice versa is absolutely impossible. Says Dr. Rulf: "For more than 80 yean I hare been occupied in keeping, observing and raising exotic birds ox plumage; consequently I hare had occasion to deal with them when 111 Every bird that has died has been examined, and I have thru disserted during about id-parakeeta^I bavS always kept ilrds during their Dines*, aomefea for a ronaidcrahla^Tverlod, in my t, which is somewhat restrict. in aise, being composed of only six rooms for four grown persons and four children. During all thla period I have not had a single case of mefcnea in my family, although the birds have bad all possible kinds of maladies. I am also confirmed in my belief by tbe fact that I have allowed no opportunity to pass of asking for information on the subject from the priuclpad dealers in birds at Hamburg, Cologne, London, Liverpool, Antwerp, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Mar■edlles and liordeaux whenever they had sick birds in considerable numbers. In was I informed that any one, either a member of tbe family or an employee, bad been attacked in tbe bouse of one of these merchants, and I obtained the same information from tbe directors of tbe great zoological gardens at Paris and London. No contagion—and I cannot insist too strongly on this point— could ever be established." These, however, are all negative facta and would fail to stand against even one authenticated ease of the transmiasion of disease to or from pet birds Such cases, it is believed, have been proved to exist by Dr. Laboulbene, who communicates an account of his investigations to the bulletin of the Acclima-

tion society.

TELEGRAPHERS' TALES.

Telegraph operators have queer experiences »t times, especially at tbe lonely railroad stations where travel la light, boon long and the work is done at night. An experience, meeting of aailore, so far as tbe yarn spinning la concerned, is aa mild compared to a telegraphers' social session as milk is to a tar's shore leave. Several knights of the key were sitting about a table down town after boura recently, when the tongues began to wag about experiences. Gil Bradley started the ball. "I was sent one night to sub on the Texas and Pacific at a little station called Gordon,” be said. "There was one hotel of four rooms a mile from the telegraph station and two or three cabins about the same distance off. Tbe regular operator had his rooms over the station and freigbthouse, where supplies were received for the coalmine* several miles away. It was the loneliest place I ever struck, but 1 had to work. After fixing things I lay down on a bench to wait for the next freight 1 suppose I dosed, for I jumped up with a start at feeling a cold, wet none shoved into my face. There was a Big Newfoundland dog wagging his tail as merrily aa a buzxsaw cuts through soft wood. Well, that dog ran first to the lighted lantern on the door, then back to me, and then pretty soon I began to think something was wrong. Up I got and be led me all through the freighthouse. up to tbe operator’s rooms and back to tbe office; then oalmly went to sleep with one eye open and one ear pricked up. I waited for the train, but before I heard It bo began to bark. “The next night the same performance. Well, after that I uaed to go U Bleep, and for the week I was there that dog kept watch. You see, tbe regular waa fond of sleep at night, so he could play poker all day. I never told on hive, but that was a well trained dog. ” "That's po experience,'' said Billy lf«rah»l 1 ‘‘Tbcre was only half a thrill in that. Why, in 1888, during tbe blixsard, I was holding down a night job in Hew Jersey. It waa the dreariest ■pot that a railroad official could pick out for a station. It was ao quiet in tbe daytime that you could boar the sunlight glint and at night tho shadows fall. It was snowing when I went on at night, arat all zrmina were blocked, and by morning I waa almost buried. My lunch was long ago gone, and I felt lilra grinding my teeth into some breakfast Dinner time came and went supper hour passed, and no relief arrived. I chewed on lead pencils and rubber

bands until I felt like

The gentle art of smiling is the latest ling which science has been meddling with, tracing back to its very beginning id pointing out with something like a eer how this facial expression first me to adorn the face of primeval man. Mr. Edward Cuyer, in a recent lecture in Paris before the Sodote d'Anthropologie, stated that oar smiles, however winning to outward seeming, are ■imply records of our very remote ana tors’ solfichnw, greediness and pug-

salty.

The passion that dominated all others in primitive man was the desire for food. The animals of those days huge and fierce, and tbe implements of hunting few and crude. Tbe naked banter, therefore, was forced to go ofttimes with an empty stomach, but when be made a kill he gorged himself with meat. Tbe anticipation of tbe approaching satisfaction of his hanger caused kirn to open his month and show his teeth, partly throogh pleasure and partly through an instinctive impulse to get himself in readiness for the im-
