Man, the wisest of all crea tures in some ways, is a fool of nature in others. But one rather expects more instinctive wisdom from our clear-eyed brothers of the air. Vet it is true that they build their nests too small for the hungry brood they bring into the world. Out in the prairie grass the little fellows could get their start safely enough. This the robins should know, But they seem tc like city ways and trees best. For this, too, we must be thankful, though when we consider that the end of life for the robin is to raise more rob ins we think we could give him a point er. Let him build a larger nest. We are wiser than thou, robin. Nearly all the tires that have occur red lately have called the whole fire de partment up through Our Street. The kid 6ays that unless care is taken, every time the alarm is given, the fire horses will strike out for Our Street. Inci dentally it might be remarked that the department does its work in very short order, so that it is hardly worth while for people down town to leave their bus iness and come out to help. Yet on these blistering days, when the pave ment is a red-hot stove, the curious come in troops and droves, on bicycles, in carriages, on foot. I he neighbor's little black-eyed boy told me once, after the had enjoyed the distinction of hav ing a very small fire in their house: "There were 'bout a billion people here." So I do not go to tires, for it would be embarrassing to think of one's self as one in a billion . "That knife," remarked the Inveter ate Wbittler as he handed it over to me to sharpen my pencil, "gave me consid erable trouble the other day. 1 lost track of it, and as I'd had it for four years I made up my mind it had to be found. So I went down and asked the Italian at the fruit stand where I bought some plums. No, he hadn't seen any knife. Then I worked my memory and concluded I might have left the thing out at a shop about a mile awav. I walked out there; couldn't find it there. Then I figured around in my mind agaic and it came to me that the last place where I'd used it was down on the shady side of the barn where I Bit and watch that corn curl up. And there it was, stuck in the side of the barn. It's a protty good knife." The Wbittler and his knife must not be parted. If I were a man 1 should be an Inveterate Whittler myself. It is bo much more unique, cleaner and de center than to be an inveterate smoker. Yet a man must do something in his lazy hours while he sits on the porch. I have never Been a picturesquely lazy woman. There, there, yes, I have Been lazy ones, and if they would only learn to whittle . Here is one pair of ears and a com plete set of nerves that did no homage to the Fourth. 1 happened to know of a safe retreat, a cottage in an orchard of applelees apple trees. Thither I hied in the early morning away from the cannon cracker and the terrible pistol. They disturbed not my musings nor slumbers of the night. The wind in the apple trees, the bird songs far and near were all the sounds that greeted me as 1 sat in that little porch, looking at the broad sweep of oat Held between the spreading but unburdened branches. There it was easy to meditate upon the Joy of quietude, even on an ungloriously torrid Fourth. Some day after the cannon cracker has been raised to its highest state of demoniacal perfection, so that it will awake from their peace the dead who were ready to die, kill, maim or make blind or deaf whosoever touches one, perhaps doting parents will cease buying death and blindness for their offspring. If only the Fourth were left out of tho calendar, Mr. Bryan! But there, it is no use getting into a stew about it here on this far-away porch where no sound disturbs me. I can be as selfish as everyone elee is on the Fourth, and enjoy the quiet while they eDjoy their noise. Let the whole city burn, I shall not know it till after wards. And if at night wo catch glimpses of the rockets and Roman candles it will be a sight without tho sound. Who will invent for us noise less firecrackers, noiseless rockets, and who will inaugurate the glorious noise less Fourth? I did not know mocking birds favored this region with their seraphic presence. Vet I am sure that long-tailed grayish warbler there in the dead tree is a mocking bird. Smith, who has lived in the Boutb, corroborates my belief, and will you forgive me if I chase the crea ture around a little just to see what he looks like? He does not appreciate my admiration, tor he flies at my approach. I go back to the porch a while and ho returns to the dead tree and calls and sings and mimics. No other tree suits him bo well, seemingly. I am afraid he has a streak of vanity in him, with all his timidity. But who would not bo vain if he could sing like that drown ing out the song of thrush or robin or meadow-lark. No need to sing, " Listen to the mockingbird." You cannot hear anything else. In the night he sings, too, and at all hours of the day. Always charming, always full of melody. If you wish to dispute, and say the mockingbird lives in the warm climate of the south, I may make weath er remarks a line of argument to be avoided when possible. LITERARY NOTES. A leading article in the July Maga zine Number of The Outlook, which is the midsummer number, as the August Magazine Number is devoted to educa tional subjects, is ' The Spirit of the New World as Interpreted by the Pan American exposition," by Hamilton W. Mabie. This subject, on which Mr. Mabie writes with bis usual insight and charm, is profusely illustrated by repro ductions from drawings of the beauti ful architectural features of the exposition. The Brotherhood of Nations. How much nearer to each other the nations of the world seem to be today, and really are today, than was the case a few decades ago. When weeks and months were required for communica tion between the United States and Eu rope, the countries of the old world ap peared to be a long way off. Now the circumference of old earth is belted with telegraph and cable lines in every pos sible direction. What happens today in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, South America, and the great islands of the sea is made known to us tomorrow by such newspapers like The Chicago Record-Herald, whose foreign news corre spondents are located in every impor tant city ic the world outside of the United States. In addition to its own staff correspondents, The Chicago Record-Herald enjoys the foreign news ser vice of The New York Herald, famous for many years for the reliability of its foreign news and also of The New York Tribune, and of that great co-operative newsgathering organization, The Asso ciated Press. No other daily newspa per in America possesses facilities so varied and extensive for covering the news of all nations. V I $ it 1 a U n i r R I, l M .-a ')': l I I H, t , if
