WASHjNGTON'S BIRD.

One Of the Early spring Songsters That Il
Deserving Of Much Honor.
OF all our birds Of passage the pcwee
is the pioneer. lie is usually present
by the twentysecond Of February. and
SO he has received the name Of Wash
ington's bird.
1t seems to me there is something in
pewee's character which merits the
name bestowed upon him. He certainly
possesses courage and hartlihood for
he is willing to breast the boisterous
winds Of March. and to sing upon leaf
less boughs. Most birds do not return
until the leaves are about one-third
grown.
If the weather be sunshiny and pleas
ant pewee helps honor Washington's
birthday with the cheerful carol: pee
wee. pee wee!" II it prove to he bleak
and drear he sounds the plaintive lay:
"Ah. me! all, me.'
Washington bird is plain, brown
little creature. with ycllowish tinge.
1t does not build its enest in trees, but
prefers old bridges, mills or caves. A
pair OF birds always consult in reference
to the selection Of the best place for a
nest. Madame never gives in to Mr..
Pewee. and If there is difference OF
opinion new site is selected which is
agreeable to both.
Birds in their little nests agree. but
it is after the tiff" is over. The nest is
made of grass. mud and moss. and has
soft lining of hair and silky grasses.
The eggs are pure white. spotted with
red. SO that at least two Of the National
colors appear. as is proper on the part
of So patriotic bird
There is popularity abou, the
pewee, noticed by the Poet Lowell.
lie is the first bird to pipe in the early
morning. but always preludes his song
with IA slender whistle, unheard at any
other time. It is said. too. that his
song grows more melancholy toward
autumn. Let us fancy that it is be-
co,lse he is soon to leave the human
friends to whom he has become at
tachcd by building his nest for many
years in or near the same spot.
This affection for people may also ac-
count for his early return. in which
ease it is clear that SO intelligent and
devoted bird deserves this name of
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS bird.-Olr Little
Ones.

After we have secured a cow that will
convert large quantities of food into
milk and butter, we must remember
that the appetite is then at the basis of
success. The cow must consume. for
without food the milk will lack in guam
tity and quality. The utmost care must
be taken, therefore, to keep the appetite
in good order. Yet it is often the case
that the system of feeding is directly
calculated to destroy the appetite The
COW gets but little exercise at best: she
is fed abundantly if the dairyman knows
his business, and these two conditions
of management sometimes destroy the
appetite. But if the dairyman does not
keepa close watch of his herd he may
fail to notice the change. and keep right
on putting the usual quantities and
kinds of food before the animal, when
limited diet just for few hours. or a
change of diet, would rectify matters
If a COW has some green food right
along through the winter, she will not
often require change of diet. But il
she is fed wholly upon dry foods, there
should he an occasional change.

HEAVEN ON EARTH.
The Welcome Meaning Given One Of Gods

The Welcome Meaning Given One Of Gods
Promises by a Little hoy.
That was as good a description Of
Heaven as any body need ask for which
a little Sunday-school boy gave in an
swer to his teachers question:: "A
place where you're never sorry" Could
more satisfying idea of soul-rest nd
JOY be suggested Evidently the child
spoke right out of his heart. Even his
short experience had taught him how
common, and how bitter thing it is
for MS to be sorry in this life of
laundering and perverseness. He
knew already the misery of sin
ming and repenting and then sin
ming again and again repenting,
in an endless weary round. He
put very homely, but very practical
and welcome. meaning into the promise
that in Heaven there shall be no more
sorrow. nor crying, and that God will
wipe away all tears from our eyes.
But if this is going to be true in
Heaven. the nearer we come To the
we shall be for it there. Really, the
essential thing for us to look at is not
whether we shall hereafter get into
Heaven, but whether Heaven is al
present getting into us. So then, i,
would he good rule for us all, and the
younger we begin to act on it the bet
ter, to aim to live in such a way that We
shall have as little as possible to be
sorry for, and, above all. in such wa,
that we shall not cause sorrow to any
body else.

What curious creatures they are: SO

SO carefully made and SO brilliantly
dressed. Have you ever seen one of
the awkward fellows stalking about?
find had no idea of their size until
began to study them. Think Of a bird
measuring four feet from the tip of
his bill to the tip of his
tail. and fully six feet from bill to
claws, Yet that is said to be the aver
age size of those found in Europe.
The males are of brilliant red color,
with purple wings. They have very
curious bills: near the middle they
make a Sudden curve down. precisely as

when he first sees one. but as they
travel in groups. by the time he has
watched dozens of them fly by. he con-
Guides that it would be hardly possible
for them all to have broken bills. and
discovers that the wonderful Being who
made them. planned these same bills
with view to the life they would live.
These great birds have web feet, and
can swim as well AS fly. though they do
not seem to be very fond of the former
method of travel: in fact their long legs
are rather i'm the way Of graceful swim
ming. and the web foot is used chiefly
for moving about on soft, thick mud.
When a fiamingo eats his dinner his
sbroken" bill comes into use: he wades
through the soft mud Of shallow water
dives his long neck down. placing the
bill in such way that the upper part
becomes the under. and with it he
gathers the choice bugs or worms or
fishes which are to form his meal. The
nests Of fiamingoes are built. ii possible.
near shallow water. where there is
plenty of mud: i'm fact. it is mud which
forms their chief building material.
They make little hills about eighteen
inches high. carefully built up of mud.

seems it is not proper to speak of these
birds AS sitting ON their nests. for the
simple reason that they do not sit, but
stand. with their feet in the water. and
their bodies resting on the edge of the
mud nests. In this way they lay their
eggs and hatch their young.
Two eggs at time are all that seem
to be allowed i'm these nests. 1t is said
that if the flamingo had the habit Of
sitting on her eggs, as do other birds,
her body is so heavy that she would be
almost certain to injure them. Is it not
remarkable thing that she was created
with instinct enough to know this. or
at least if she does not know any thing
of the kind, with habits suited to her
duties?-Pansy.

THE EFFECTS OF OZONE.
1t II Believed to Hasten the AciGiulati
nf MILL.

1t II Believed to Haaten the AcidulatiOF
Of Milk.
Many reasons are assigned why milk
and cream sour so easily during the
electrical disturbances accompanying
thunder storms.
An Italian chemist. Prof Tolomer
found that the passage of an electric
current directly through the milk not
only did not hasten. but actually de.
layed acidulation. Milk so treated did
not become sour until the sixth to the
ninth day. whereas milk not subjected
to the electric current became decided
ly acid on the third day. When. how.
ever. the polls of IIoltz electric gen.
Grating machine were held in close
proximity above the surface of the
milk, the latter soon became sour. This
effect the professor attributed to the
ozone generated by the electrical dis
charge.
As the souring of milk is attributed
to the growth of a ferment or bacterium
which converts the milk sugar into
Tactic acid, it is possible that the
presence of czone in the air everything
the milk hastcns the multiplication and
growth of the bacterium. The produc
ton of ozone on a small scale by the
machine and on great scale by light
ming is identical. In the latter case the
ozone is diffused through the air, and
its presence may be detected by the
strong acid odor which SO often prevails
Immediately after sharp electrical
storm has passed. Therefore, if milk
should be submerged in water during =
storm, and the access of the air pre-
vented, no result of the kind would
occur, for the experiments proved that
it is not the electricity itself. but the
ozone produced by it's discharge in the
air which hastens acidulation. - Col.

The quickest move | ever made, or
