The Songsters.-Boys, and even men,
take great delight in the wanton destruction
Of birds, never stopping to realize their great
value in destroying pestiferous insects, OF
the pleasure we derive from the presence OF
the sweet songsters. The Legislature has
been more thoughtful, and has created pro-
lection for them against the cruelty of their
murderers. The following section is bit of
bird literature of interest to friends of birds:
SEC. l. That it shall be unlawful for any
person, at any time, TO catch, kill, injure, or to
pursue with such intent, on the premises of
another, or on the public highways, streets, al
leys, or public common, any sparrow, robin,
blue-bird, martin, thrush, mocdng- bird, swal-
low, oriole, red-bird, cat-bird, chewing or
ground-robin, hng-bird, bobolink, yellow
bird, pewee or phebe, wren, cuckoo, indigo
bird, nut-hstch, creeper, yellow-hammer or
flicker, warbler or finch; or, in any place to
catch, XII, or injure, or pursue with such in
tsno, any quail or Virginia partridge, rufied
grouse or pheasant, or any wild turkey, be-
tween the first day Of February and the if
teenth of August.

Editorial Notices are so common that it
is almost impossible for an editor to express
his honest opinion of the merits of any article
without being suspected of interested motives
This fact, however, shall not deter us from
saying what we think of a new addition to
the Materia Medica to which our attention has
been recently directed. We refer to De. J.
WALKER'S CALIFoRNIA VINEGAR BITTERs, a
remedy which is making its way INTO more
families Just now than all the other advertised
medicines put together. There seems to be no
question about the potency Of its tonic and al
terative properties, while it possesses the great
negative Instrumentation of containing neither
alcohol nor mineral poison. That it is a spe-
ciiic for Indigestion, Biliousness, Constipation
and many complaints of nervous origin, we
have reason to know; and we are assured on
good authority that as a general invigorant,
regulating and purifying medicine, it has no
equal. 1t is stated that its ingredients, lob
tanned from the wilds of California; are new
to the medical world; and its extraordinary
effects certainly warrant the conclusion that it
is compound of agents hitherto unknown.
If popularity is any criterion, there can be no
doubt of the efficiency of the VINEGAR BIT
TIERS, for the sale of the article is immense and
continually increasing. 1919

the youngsters were told, were to keep them hale
and hearty during the summer. We all know
now that this was a fallacy; that new vieor, not
depletion, is what is required at the commence

Ford, Hlooutionist and Eumorist.-
The press everywhere speaks highly Of tb'
ability of Mr.. Robert B. Ford, the great hu,
morist. Read what is said of him:
A brilliant elocutionist and finished reader
-HanHibGl No. Daily Courier.
This talented young Shakespearean reader
renders every selection with surprising pow
er.-KanSas City Daily BElletin.
Those who enjoy good laugh and delight
to see the productions of the great poets por-
trayed in their true light by the charming
power of mastery elocution, should see Mr.
Ford in his attractive role-Da6ttqte (IosOa)

Don't deny the children the privilege Of en-
joying the rollicking humor of such pieces as
'Darius Green and his Flying Machine. -
Minneapolis (Minn.) Daily Tribune.
The effective manner in which Mr.. Ford
gave Sheridan's Ride, was fully shown by the
power with which he held his audience. In
delivering it he fully rivals Edwin Adams,
whom we have heard, and for whom it was
said, that In the delivery of "SheridRn's Ride"
she had no equal in America."-St. Joseph

In the year 1885, goOdly town in the land
of steady habits, was split into factions by g
hog excitement similar to that which prevails
in our city the present writing. And there as
here, there were people who desired to be on
the popular side, but could hardly make nj
their minds which it was. To illustrate theil
position witty citizen contrived the follow.

Contemptuous Conduct-The little
shoemaker was on the street, Sunday, in the
condition in which that day usually finds him.
In fact Levi has SO long been in the habit Of
getting drunk, on Sunday, that it has become
a part of his religion to observe the day in that
manner. On such occasions his conduot is
worthy of commendation, if compared with
that Of tie boys and young men who are guilty
of disgraeefnl and most eontemptuous prac.
tees IN following him along the streets. hoot,
ing and yelling at him, throwing him down
and IN various ways endeavoring to excite hin
70 use language and create disturbance which
he would not do if let alone. The weakness
which permits delight in taunting and abusing
an intoxicated person, in jeering, instead Of
Pitying and trying to assist him, is of more
helpless nature than that which allows apps.
tite to become master Of the man.

Look Out for Him.-The Monroeville
Spectator warns the public against dead beat
who is out on tramp, he is a German,
speaks English imperfectly, wears no beard
except mustache, is dressed in black clothes,
wears low shoes and white socks and carries q
small satchel. He complains of throat dis
ease and want of money, and generally goes
for clergymen and teachers, begging for funds
to help him to Toledo. This man was exposed
two years ago in the Cleveland Herald, was
here a year and half ago and also last week.
We hope he will be'treated by the public as
he deserves until his throat can be attended to.
