FOR OUR YOUNG READERS.
A WICKED STYLE.

Yes. mamma, yes: do take it OF!
Its ewes so coidly stare:
A pretty bird so still and dead
Indeed, can not wear.
For every time bend my head
see one soft blue wing.
Which brings me thoughts of trees and
flowers,
And birds that sweetly sing.
I'm angry, then. because my bird
Was not allowed to ny
And sing and swing on waving trees
Beneath the summer sky.
Yes. yes: | know it cost SO much
Five dollars, did you say!
If were rich I'd give twice that
To see it fly away.
But, mamma, though your purse IS filed
With coins that brightly shine,
They'll not hiring back the stolen life
To this poor bird of mine.
That women's hearts are kind and good
hear most people say.
And vet they'll have these dear birds
killed
To make themselves look gay.
I'm sorry I'm little girl
We're | woman grown
would not buy dead birds, but pay
10 have them let alone.
But, mamma. please TO Fashion write
And tell her do not slniieD
That this is such q wicked thing

SODA LOCOMOTIVES.
Queer Motors for Use in City Street.
Where Steam Is Forbidden.

Queer Motors for Use in City Streets
Where Steam Is Forbidden.
At the Baldwin Locomotive Works
there are in cOulse of construction
four locomotives which are designed
to be run by soda. which takes the
place of fire under the boiler Soda
has much the same power as coal with
out any of the offensive gases which
that fuel emits. The engines are to be
run on streets where steam engines are
forbidden.
The engine has much the same APP
| pcarance as a passenger car. 1t is
about 16 feet long, entirely boxed in,
with no visible smoke-stacks or pipes,
as there is no exhaust or refuse. The
boiler is of copper. 81 inches IN diam
eter, and Ii feet long. having tubes
running through it, as in steam boil
ers. Inside the boiler will be placed
I've tons of soda, which. upon being
dampened by a jet of steam, produces
an intense heat. When the soda is
thoroughly saturated, which will occur
in about six hours, the action ceases.
and then it is necessary to restore it to
Its original state by forcing through
the boiler stream of superheated
steam from stationary boiler. which
drives the moisture entirely from the
soda, when it is again ready for use.
The exhaust steam from the cylinders
is used to saturate the soda, and by this
means all refuse is used.
These engines are the first of their
kind that have been built in this coun-
try. and are being constructed under
the supervision OF George Kuchler,
German engineer. The engines will
have about the same power as those
on the New York elevated roads, and
will readily draw four light ears. Soda
engines are now used in Berlin and
other European cities very successfully.
| and they also traverse the st. Gothard
| tunnel. under the Alps, where steam
engines can net be used, because the
length of the tunnel renders it impOssi-
Bile to devise system Of ventilation
which will carry OFF the foul gases gem
Grated by a locomotive. SO overpow-
ering would those gases become that
sutfocation would ensue. -Philadelphia

A Smart Crow.

About year ago, Golden Days told
of smart talking crow, named Mary,
that lives at Germantown, Pa. Now
comes news of another crow with an
education. This latter crow was found
in the woods near Plainville, Conn.
when it was a mere nesting. At that
time one of its wings and one of its
legs were broken, SO that it could hard
ly get along. Even now it moves with
awkward tlops, for its wing has never
regaineG its strength. From Piainville
this crow was taken to Unionville,
where lives Mrs. Frederick Hart, and
the lame bird became that lady's fcath-
cred friend. 1t is not a house pet, but
lives in a pine tree in the front yard,
winter as well as summer. Whenever
it sees dog. it runs 10 the tree, hOarse-
ly crying: ''Mother. here's a dogt AS
for cats. it is not afraid Of them. but
pulls their tails at every opportunity.
1t was in the habit of whipping all the
chickens OF the neighborhood. until one
day big Shanghai rooster thrashed it
within an inch of its life. 'Well, well.
that was a cyclone says the crow,
every time he sees that Shanghai. Last
spring, as Mrs. Harris gardner was
putting out cabbage plants, he went
along on his hands and knees, not
looking back till he had reached the
end of the long row. When at last he
did look babk. 10! the mischieyous bird
had just pulled up the last but one of
the plants so carefully put in the
ground. Most of It's expressions are
picked up from the children of the
peighborhOod. Not the least of its ac-
complishments is the way it awakes

Together i'll IL Union.
There exists in Melbourne a Domes-
tic Servants Union. 1t has issued a
circular in which it says:
The members of this society wish it
to be thoroughly understood that they
have not banded together for the pur-
pose of taking any arbitrary steps
against their employers. such as an a@i-
tstion tor eight hours, or any thing of
that description, as will be seen from
the objects under which the union has
been formed-namely:
/. To unite together for mutual pro-
lection.
2. To give mutual support to its
members.
s. To endeavor to obtain mitiga
ton of the difficulties under which we
at present labor.
4. To establish bureau for cOnven-
fence and economy in. obtaining en-
ployment.
5. To encourage and protect the legit-
innate interests of aforesaid union, to
render assistance in cases of Oppres-
sion. and to endeavOr to. settle any dis
putes between employers. and. ems

management of the union for the use
OF the members when out of employ
ment -
2. 10 establish sick fund for m1-

built by carpenter. When the rain
was over the mother came back and
| unlocked the leaf.
The rubythrOat is very easily tanned.
and is a most loving and trustful little
creature A friend Of mine told me
an interesting story of humming-bird
that used to fly around their porch
where one of the trumpet-fower vines
grew. At one time one of these little
creatures coming to drink juice from
the flowers, seemed tired. A little
girl approached it very gently. The
bird was not frightened away, but as
the girl came near the vine she stretched
forth her hand, and the humming-bird
rested on one of her fingers. 1t was
afterward taken into the house and
KEEP. as pet.
Our friend Mr.. Weber discovered a
curious habit connected with their
nesting. He had frequently observed.
while watching for their nests, that
the rubythroats. after leaving their
station, shot suddenly and perpend;cu-
lary in the air until they became in
visible. At last he had the great salts
faction of seeing the female bird fall,
like fiery aerolite from the sky, upon
the spot where she had built her nest;
so that this curious habit of ascending
and descending must have been in
stinctively taught to the birds for the
purpose Of concealing the precise posi-
ton of the nest
He also tells us that one of his capt
ured rubythroats ''played possum"
when taken, Stimulating death in a
very perfect manner On several Oc-
casions he had enticed the living
meteors into the room by placing vases
of tempting flowers on the table and
adroitly closing the sash as soon as
they were engaged with the flowers, but
he had always lost them through their
dashing at the window and striking
themselves against the glass. At last,
however, his attempts were crowned
with success. This time" he says, 81
succeeded in securing an uninjured
captive. 1t Immediately suggested
itself to me that mixture of two parts
refined loaf sugar with one of honey in
ten parts of water would make about
the nearest approach to the nectar OF
flowers. While my sister ran to pre-
pare it gradually opened my hand to
look at my prisoner, and saw, to my
no little amusement as well as sus-
picion, that it was actually playing
possum'-feigning to be dead most
skillfully. 1t lay on my open palm
motionless for some minutes, during
which l watched it in breathless curl
osity. l saw it gradually open its
bright little eyes to peep whether the
way was clear. and then close them
slowly as 1t caught my eyes upon it.
But when the manufactured nectar
came and drop was touched on the
point of its bill, it revived very sud-
denly, and in a moment was on its
legs, drinking with eager gusto of the
refreshing draught from silver tea
spoon. When stated it refused to take
any more, and sat perched with the
coolest self-composure on my finger
and plumed itself quite as artistically
as if on its own fayorite spray. l was
enchanted with the bold, innocent
confidence with which it turned up its
keen black eyes to survey us as much
as to say well, good folks, who are
you?' Christian Wcekty.
