THESE ARE YOUR BROTHERS"
A Plea for Tender Treatment OF the
Beautiful Feathered Songsters.

Plea for Tender Treatment OF the
Beautiful Feathered Songsters.
A well-known Frenchman of letters
wrote book, nearly thirty years ago,
with the express object to reveal the
bird n soul, to show that it is person"
in the hope of diminishing the enormous
slaughter for purposes of personal
adornment. of ministering to our appe-
tites. adding to our collections, or worst
Of all, gratifying our love of murder,
pure and simple, by whatever name we
choose to dignity the taking of life for
our own amusement. To this noble
mans effort every lover of birds, for
higher uses than to put in the stomach
or on the shelf, should add his chroni-
Gle, however unpretending.
1t is a mystery how men of hearts
tender to suffering can be so carried
away by the excitement of the hunt as
to lose sight of the terror and pain of
the victim. Many hunters have con-
fessed to return to their better selves
the moment the chase was won. In
what does this short madness differ from
the sudden rage which impels one to
lift his hand against the life of man,
merely (should beg nobler game? 1t
seems even more strange that a gentle
woman can endure the beautiful plum
age of a delicate winged creature, whose
sweet life of song and joy was rudely
cut short by brutal men that the poor
dead body might shine among her laces.
For those who are willing to crafty
their palate at the cost of so much
beauty and music there is nothing to be
aid-they can not be reached. Not
until man has outgrown the blrbarism
of nourishing his body at the expense Of
his soul can we hope to touch those who
eat birds. 1t is sad enough to turn our
murderous weapons against the gentle
OK that trusts us. the innocent-faced
sheep and the honest-eyed calf. but to
rob the world of inspiring robin or a
rollcking bobolink, for the small bits
of flesh under their feathers, is too pitt
full.
open your eyes to the evidence"
(says Michelet.) Throw aside YOUR
prejudice. Your traditional and derived
opinions. Dismiss YOUR pride and ac-
knowledge kindred in which there is
nothing TO make one ashamed. What
are these' They are your brothers. ~

this may bc done in a way that inspires

table and dependent by constant and
u-c'c,- orders. Rules to be observed
may b. laid down and enforced
IN gentle. firm way. until their re-
qurcmrnts are woven into the habits of
life. In such cases the parents are the
halancc-whcel that simply regulates the
family. without confusion or noise. Yet
such homes. thus regulated. are the
most congcnial we have. There is no
lack of discipline, but it is enforced
rather by qualities of character than by
commands. and so brings re>pec, rather
than fear.
Confidence and love are quite as es-
sential as obedience. And to command
both these requires a well-balanced
character. There are parents who mani
fest their love for children by gratifying
every wish and abjuring all authority.
They are surprised, in time. that Their
children neither heed nor respect them.
The fault is their own. The very fact
that they exercised no controlling in
ilucnce led to a feeling of contempt.
There was no authority to respect, and
no qualities that especially commanded
confidence A firm. kind hand is felt
and appreciated by children. They are
keen readers of human nature, and
know when they are firmly or weakly

given should be so manifestly Just a> to
