How a Flight of Birds Changed the His
tory of America


tory of America.
When Columbus sailed westward over
the unknown Atlantic he expected to
reach Zipangu Uapan). After several
days sail from Gomera, one Of the
Canary islands, he became uneasy at not
discovering Iipangu, which, according
ing to his reckoning, should have been
ZIG nautical miles more to the east.
After a long discussion he yielded to the
opinion of Martin Alonzo Pinzon, the
commander of the Pinta, and steered to
the southwest. Pinzon was guided in
his opinion by flight of parrots toward
the southwest The effect of this change
in his course curiously exemplifies the in
auence of small and apparently trivial
events in the worlds history. If Column
bus, resisting the counsel of Pinzon, had
kept his original route he would have
entered the warm current of the Gulf
Stream, have reached Florida and
then probably have been carried to Cape
Hatteras and Virginia. The result
would probably have been to give the
present United States Roman Catholic
Spanish population instead of Protest
ant English one, a circumstance of i'm
measurable Importance. "Never," wrote
Humboldt, chad the fight of birds more

said to have determined the first settle.

How to Stock q Lunch Basket for Long
Railroad Trip.

No person, man or woman, should ever
start on a railroad trip without a well
stocked lunch basket. A trip only in
to last six days, and an overland train is
often blockaded two and thSee weeks.
In the first place, square wicker basket
has better slowing capacity than any
other. On the bottom put layer of
small tins of sardines, potted chicken,
pates, or any Of the preserved meats that
are best liked; also can opener. Above
them have one of these little alcohol
tripod stoves that cost twenty-five cents,
pint tin cup, one or more cans of con-
densed milk, a pound of sugar in one
closed tin canister and tea or coffee in
another. A small tin coffee or tea
pot and pint of alcohol are also to
be packed in. Half a dozen lemons
should come next, and at least
one a day should be eaten with the
food as a corrective. A small bottle
Of olives or pickles are also nice;
80 is cold tongue, or better still nice
chicken cooked at home. The rest of
the space should be fled in with oat-
meal and small crackers, bread and APP
pies or other fruit. and If there is any
roc m more lemons and perhaps some
plain cake. No pie, it mashes and
doesn't look tasty. The meats and
bread, if any, should be wrapped in
waxed paper, and IA couple of dozen of
japanese paper napkins put in, with a
knife, fork and spoon, and a pretty mug
for coffee and plate can be tucked in
somewhere. You can make coffee or
tea with one Of those little spirit lamps.
To pack as much as is mentioned here
you require basket about eighteen
inches long, foot wide and foot deep
It will hold sufficient for weeks ra-
tions.

There are certain number of persons
whose object 1t is to pass a certain num-
Der of months in the year in the country
houses of their friends, to save the house
keeping expenses at home and the hotel
bills away from home, but with the ex-
ception of these cadgers country houses

not only to provide the guests with food

make believe to be sportsmen by shooting
them with all the accompaniment that

Theology is always as much pro.
gressive science as geology If 1000 of
the wisest, purest, most intellectual,
most healthy scholars in Christendom
today were to formulate creed out of
the New Testament scriptures, as they
are known today, that theology state
ment could not remain the same to the
date of A. d. 1892. The power, the

would throw it into new forms of ex-
preston, while the substance would re-.

Badness is attributed to hat wearing.
Children should do as much as possible
without caps. Hats worn by any one

felt, unlined. Do not wash the head
more than once a week, and use very
little grease afterward. Avoid using
