I t is indeed strange that the 4th Is not a legal holiday, for no legls- la t ’on enacted by congress has ever declared It such. NevertrelesH it is celebrated throughout the Union In a ll the states but Kansas, K entucky M ’Bslsslppl and South C arolina, by a legal holiday statute. In these four States It la observed as a holiday by general consent. For a number of years the people I f this nation celebrated the day w ith firew orks, f rin g of cannon, pis. tolg and firecrackers. This mode f f commemoration has been the occa sion o f the loss of life and in ju ry b rin g in g sorrow to a good many homes. In la te r years a crusade fo r a better and ‘‘sane” 4th was adopted g en e ra lly ' by the people of th e nation) and now prevails. In most com m unlt'es programs consist ing of a th le tic sports, p atrio tic ad dresses, pageant, etc., are enjoyed. John Q uincy Adam H wrote these eloquent words concerning nation al holiday: "F ro m the day of this declaration the people of North A m erica were no longer the fra g ments of a distant empire.

The w riter knows of a case where a bird had Its hablta changed by al tered conditions. A trout fishery was established on an estate In Scotland. During certain seasons a large number of tbs fry or young trout are crowded together In shallow ponds, aa their Inclination Is to keep together Just where tbe w ster enters. One day a blackbird, drinking at one of these ponds, got hold of a young fo n t, probably accidentally, but found It was excellent feeding. A blackbird does not by habit get Its food from the water, but thia particu lar one, having tapped a new source of food supply, returned to It again and again. The following season this bird had by some means been able to Impart Its newly found knowledge to all the other blackbirds on tbe estate, and Instead of one bird stealing the young fish, nil the bird« got Into the way of doing sol The owner hud either to shoot the blackbirds or give up try ing to rear trout. T hat an entire change of food la not detrimental may be proved by the fact that many of the cows kept In Norway are fed on fish, yet who w ill say that a cow's teeth were made for dealing with a diet of this sort 7— Philadelphia Inquirer.

" I was summoned to ait on the Jury," said the man. producing the summons "But surely," said the Judge, "you know that you cannot help to try your own case?” "W ell," said the baffled one ruefully, “I did think It was a hit of luck."
