CAPTIVE Humming- Birds.

Cincinnati, tells OF two iumming- birds
which strayed in May, year ago, into
the house of iady II that city and were
captured:
The lady, friend of birds, resolved
to Try the experiment Ok demonstrating
the little creatures, although she WIS
aware that such attempts ended usually
lii the death of the birds. She had no
suitable cage ST. she selected Il large
candy jar, and fixed a. perch INSIDE, In
the bottom sue placed boquet of flow

The flowers were renewed every day. The
cOnvolvu.us, rrop@olum, honeysuckle,
and other flowers with a long calyx were
selected. A little honey was dropped
into every blossom.
The birds began to sip the swes food
on the first day, humming above the flo =

out among them swift as lightning.
They also snapped at litsie insects aud

were given some honey rhinned with

their low perch and tapped the honey

There can be no doubt that''too much

then learns to paint by painting. The
artisan doesn't spend lifetime IN train.

his imagination; it tames his fancy; it

SANTA CLAUS.

Harper's Weekly, the current number, has a
Christmas poem descriptive of a cartoon.
which represents Santa Claus sitting on
chimney in deep snow and waiting for the
children to get 10 sleep, 1t is one OF Nasts
best drawings. The poem is as follows:
Hol no! my fleet courser! you've brought
me too soon,
Through the sharp, frosty air, meath the clear
shining moon,
From the far frozen North. where securely

And keep men aloof with my grim ice spell!
Hal la! For long ages they've striven in
To break through the wall OF my chosen do
main;
To wrest my ice.Helds from my ancient con-
troll,
And tear down my banner that floats from the
pole!
The step of q mortal would shatter the spell;
So against the invader guard myself well,
Lest, driven from earth, must hide my gray
head
Where my kindred, the gay fairy people, have
fed.
Alas for the spirits of innocent mirth,
Long driven from meadow, from grove, and
from hearth,
The gay fairy people of earth's merry prime!

DANGER IN DISGUISE.
Summer Pesuisnes UGsaHhsd, and Some
Tmsly Adyics shout How 70 AVOID IL.
Certain Valuable Facts Made
Public.

II is well known that hot weather
rings sickness, and that few people
go through the summer without un-
pleasant symptoms. The mouth be-
comes dry and parched the tongue fur
red with white, the pulse irregular, the
head feyerish, the body cramped, and
the limbs swollen and tired. Ladies'
especially, with their natural delicacy
and tendency to female troubles, find the
hot weather almost unbearable, while
little children are dying every day from
exhaustion and because parents neglect
~precantion and care. Appointment and
well known physician Of New York as
serts as his positive belief that more
than three-fourths of all so-called sum-
mer complaints arise from disordered
s~ecretions, and that these secretionary
organs, which, by being put of order
cause 50 much trouble. are the Kidneys
and Liver. These organs are the gov
ernor of the system, and by their move
nlents the other parts of the body are
regulated. The brain controls the life,
bnt the lower part Of the body rules the
health.
There is one, and only one known
vegetable that will absolutely regulate
and control the Kidneys and Liver at
all times and thus prevent the many
dangers of the summer. That vege-
table "a West India leaf is used as the
basis Of Warmers Safe Kidney and
Liver Cure. 1t is pure, pleasant to the
taste and absolutely certain in its re-
suits. 1t keeps those who intelligently
use it in perfect health, and cures those
whose secretions r deranged. For all
urinary complaints OF either sex it Is
infallible. For all bilious troubles 1t is
certain. For the hot season 1t is inval-
liable, and IL should be used upon the
approach of the slightest symptoms. 1t
may save your life or that Of some dear
friend; 1t will certainly prevent much
suffering.
No remedy in America has ever re-
ceived such high and enthusiastic com
mendations.
