How to Photograph Birds.

DIR. R. w. Shufeldt suggests to orni-
biologists that they may find portable
Photographic outfits of advantage in their
studies. He finds that by the use of the
instantaneous shutter birds may be
photographed in nearly all of their posi-
tions. ''Out here on the prairies we will
often find an old stump or stalk upon
which dozen or fifteen species of birds
will alight during seven or eight hours on
almost any day suitable to use the camera
upon them. Now, all we have to do is
to properly set our instrument near this
point, conceal it in such way as not to
alarm the birds, focus it sharply upon the
perch where they aIght, place on your
'snap shutter, and fix it with string,
and then remove yourself far enough
away to pull it when you have a subject
sitting to your liking. Birds that you
have wounded but slightly may be pho
tographed under the most favorable cir
cumstances; they may also be taken sit
ting on their nests; in actual fight, how
ever swift; in pursuit of their food; in
leading about their young; indeed the
list is almost an endless one. Rookeries
also offer admirable subjects, and a
splendid field is open at those wonder
full resorts of water birds in such places
as the Bahamas or the Alaskan coast. -

The point of etiquette, - in regard to
not sealing letters sent by the hand of
friend, is to be considered, undoubtedly,
as settled by the usage of polite society.
And yet there are two sides to the ques-
ton. To intrust to friend an unsealed
letter to third person is a compliment
to the friend; but why should it be
thought necessarily uncomplimentary if
the letter be sealed2 On the other hand.
the sealing of letter may be deemed
always advisable, for one good reason at
least. The contents of an unsealed letter
are never safe. They are safe so far as
the honorable friend is concerned, but
not safe in any other sense. They may
be lost from the envelope easily and in
nocently. They may be distracted
and read by the servant to whom
the note is delivered at the
door. or by any prying individual who
may find the missive lying ON the hall
table and awaiting the owners arrival.
Especially unsafe is it to place in an I'M
sealed package articles of large money
value. Would any sane man send a $50
bill in an unsealed envelope by the hand
of friend or anybody whomsover? The
friend himself, if he knew the nature of
the inclosure, would be very apt to pro-
test against this sacrifice of common
sense at the shrine of etiquette.-"C S.

Early rnhabitnuts Of A erfca.

A glance at the geologies of the pres
ent day shows that workers in this de-
partment of natural history are enabled
TO map out the continents and seas of
ages ago almost as correctly as they can
those of today-so distinctly are the old
shores and landmarks outlined. Today
we ride in cars across the American con-
tinent; yet not so long ago, geologically
speaking, vast inland sea extended
northwest from the Gulf of Mexico
finding its boundaries, in all probability,
on some shore now submerged beneath
the waters of the Pacific.
This was during what is known as the
age of chalk, or the cretaceous period
and millions of years ago, if our geologi-
cal estimates are correct. The question
as to whether man existed then is an in
teresting one. Evidence of human life
has not been found; yet there were vast
areas of land, with animals and plants of
great variety, and as there was no physi-
cal barrier to human existence, in the
opinion of many the cretaceous CONT
nents and islands were populated by
man.
Knowing the actual conditions of life
at this early time, the strange animals
that lived during it, it is a comparatively
easy matter to understand or appreciate
the daily life of our ancestors. 1t is
evident that they were much more
primitive than even the bushman of to-
day, and undoubtedly were what we
would term wild men, living in rocks
and caves as the lower animals do. They
were essentially hunters and fishermen,
depending upon game for their susie
nance. The small continent of America
at this time had in all probability low,
marshy coasts, and the great ocean or
gulf, whose coast line can be traced from
Arkansas to near Fort Riley, on the
Kansas river, up to Minnesota to Canada.
near the head of Lake Superior, was
vast shallow sea. On its borders we may
imagine cliffs of sandstone worn out into
caves and quarries, in which these early
fishermen made their homes. -Phila-
delphia Times.

A Rather Cutting ReioInder.

Some years ago rather amusing incident
took place in one Of the most splendid of the
New York hotels which is too good not to be
related. A swell young gentleman was a
boarder in the house, and, preferring not to
eat at the table d'hote, had his meals served
in his own private parlor with all the ele-
gance for which the establishment was noted.
Being somewhat annoyed with the airs of the
servant who waited upon him-a negro of
very sooty complexion-he requested him one
day at dinner to retire. The negro bowed
and took his stand directly behind the gem
tlemans chair. Supposing him gone, it was
with some Impotence that few minutes
later the gentleman saw him step forward TO
remove the soup.

A Bath in Washington.

Probably Washington is the only civil
lied place in the world where it comes
within the limits of etiquette to ask a
visitor to take a bath; yet many a con-
gresham crowns his politeness to a con
stituent by Offering him ticket of adj
mittance to the marble pools in the base
ment of the Capitol. OF course, when
an immersion would, for obvious reasons,
be of the most benefit, the statesman
wisely refrains from an invitation par
taking too much of the suggestive. As
a rule the curiosity of the visitor impels
him to take advantage of an opportunity
to see the luxurious appointments that
keep our national politics clean.-New
York Press Every Day Talk"
