May lt not be that we get a keener pleasure out of eating an Imperfect ap ple than a perfect one? It Is neither the best possible apple, which would be perfect, nor tbe worst possible ap pie. which would have a kind of nega tive perfection; it has a worm at tbe core. But I wonder whether we do not enjoy It more because we have to eat tbe more carefully to keep trout eating him. Besides, he arouses In our mind all : sorts of : questionings. Why Is he there). What kind of worm la be? How did he get In? How would he have got out If we had not ousted him? And note this what sort of apple would It have been if.be bad taken up his residence elsewhere? The 'perfect apple could have roused nn queries which the defective apple dotw uot Tbe same subtle Influences went to made both tbe same elements, the saute forces, the same chemical processes. But the defective apple has lu addition to all these the worm. Robert M. Gay In Atlantic. 1 She Shuffled, Ha Cut.

Tbe most remarkable thing In con nection with tbe bell bird is its power ful voice. It utters a clear metallic note that can be beard at a distance of three miles. Its noise is like that pro duced by a blacksmith striking bis on. vil. Sometimes it repents its notes In quick succession, sometimes at fairly long Intervals. There is no mistake ubout the voice of this bird; It Is loud and plerciiiK and would be heard above the Uiu produced by every In mate of the zoo raising Its voice nt once. Except for a space of naked skin on tbe throat and around the eyes, which during the breeding sea son Is of green color, this bird Is pure white. The contrast between tbe sex es in ftbe bell birds Is extreme, for, while tbe malo is pure white, tbe fe male is brownlKb green. Darwin re fers to tbe bell bird when be points out that "white is n very rore color in terrestrla I species of moderate size and inoffensive h:iultB."-Pall Mall Ga sette. Steady Employment.
