A PLAY HOUSE FOR BIRDS.

Our little readers know that birds build
nests for their eggs and as houses in which
they rear their young birds before they are
able to fly and take care of themselves but
did they ever know of bird going to- quite
as much trouble just. to make play house !!
Travellers say there'is such a bird in Aus
'tralia, called the Bower bird: 1,,.a',,Z u
"The Bower bird of Australia is not con-
tented with the magnificent forests and or
ange groves he has to sport in, but he must
90 to work and make house more to his
mind. He does not use it for nest, nor
has its nest ever yet been discovered. One
would imagine from its little ballroom, that
the nest itself must be quite fanciful af-
fair. .....s t.....- . s-....:f =.
"The first thing to be done in their little
assembly room is one of the last in ordina-
ry houses. Mrs. Bower puts down her car
pet. 1t resembles tolerable mat, woven
of twigs and coarse grasses Then other
twigs are collected, and arching sides are
arranged, making little alley, large E.
nough to accommodate several friends at a
time. Such romping and racing as goes
on when Mrs. Bower makes party. Up
and down this curious hall they chase each
other, uttering loud, full cry, which is no
doubt meant for laughter. 1t is no sort Of
protection from the weather, and as far as
any one can see, it is good for nothing but
to play in. But as they have nothing else
in the world to do but to enjoy themselves,
it is very we'll to make that the business Of
life. It is very different with boys and
girls who have precious souls that must live
forever, and who have q work to do for God
in this world. s..,o.f.. ,..sI .
These little Bowers think quite as' much
of amusement as some silly people we have
seen in our lives. They gather together
Just before the front and back door Of their
homes great collection of shining things.
Nice white pebbles, pretty sea.shells, gay
feathers, bits of ribbon when they can steal
any; even bright colored rags, broken to-
bacco-pipes, and any shining scraps of met
al they may chance to espy in their travels.
Gold and brass are all the same to them.
If the gold was dull and the brass bright,
they would prefer the latter. When the
natives lose any light articles about. their
homes, they are pretty sure to rummsge
over the collections Of the nearest Bower
birds, and very often succeed in recovering
their goods. ...-.: .iix.. =.

"Oh! dear, no, replied she, "and I'm

SAVE THE DEAD LEAVES.

=, If every horticulturist and farmer would
think for moment on the nature of fallen
leaves s-which contain not only the vegeta-
bic matter, but the earthly salts, lime, pot
ash, etc., needed for the next seasons
growth and dsfertility-and that, too, exactly
in the proportion required by the very tree
or plant from which they fall nay, more,
if they would consider that it is exactly in
this way, by the decomposition, of these
very fallen.leaves, that nature enriches the
soil, year after year in her great forests, it
would hardly be possible for such a reaec-
ting horticulturist or farmer to allow these
leaves to be swept away by every wind that
blows and finally lost altogether. Nor
would he give them away, as many now do.
He would rather collect, from week to week,
the leaves that fall under each tree, and by
digging them under the soil about the roots
where they will decay, provide in the cheap
est manner the best possible food for that
tree. If this plan should be tried we should
not see old orchards dying out for want of
nourishment; but they would, in this sim
pie manner, receive all the enriching they
required. Pear trees, and doubtless the
peach, would be greatly benefited by this
procedure. In certain vineyards in France
and Italy, the vines are kept in the highest
condition by simply burying at their roots
every leaf and branch that is pruned off, or
falls from the vines at the close of the sea-
son. Will not some of our farmers of in
quiring minds give this simple process a
trial this season? 1t is well known fact
that no manure is more eagerly sought for
by the florist than leaf manure. 1t enters
largely into the compost prepared for pot
ting. Leaves. collected and mixed with
barnyard manure, greatly enhance its val.
ue. Therefore gather up the leaves that
nothing. shall be lost. T., a--.--..t

EARLY RISING.

1t is crime against the body and against
nature unless it be preceded BY proper
tionslly early retiring. Itis claimed for the
French women who live in the large cities,
who spend three-foprths Of their nights in
parties, and calls, and dances and the thea
tre' and the opera, retiring to their beds to-
wards daylight, that they maintain their
sprightliness and yiyscitys and their good
looks by the universal habit, and streng
determination arising from rational princi-
pies, that under all circumstances, after
having retired to bed, they will remain
there until they have had their full sleep
out, even if 1t requires till sundown. Our
own experience. will always tell us that #
sufficient sleep is not had on one night, it
will be followed with day of yawning, Of
discomfort, of disagreeable drowsiness and
in whatever calling or profes,
sion we may engage. All physiologist q
gree that the first step toward madness is
an unsuficiency Of sleep, whether compelled
or voluntary. The babe gets fretful when
its sleep lis broken in upon. That same
babe, if in good health, always wakes up Of
Itself to crow and play and smile, so loving:
ly in a mothers eye. We can better and
more safely intrench upon the necessary
amount Of food for ten days, than rabatet the
requisite amount Of sleep for two, for the
simple reason that the rest of good sleep re-
cuperates the brain, and the whole nervous
system. An eminent biblical commentator
thought to save time by rising at fbtr insthe
morning, winter and summer: the result
was an Impairment Of sight iby the sudden
transition from the darkness of the clpsed
eye to the glare of artificial light andgen-
eral health, which required many months
travel abroad, and enfeebled bodily health
for the remainder of life, this before he was
three score. .AHaEs Journal of Health. ="
