A Featllered Winter Friend.

A writer in the Contributors Club in
the February Atlantis writes pleasantly
of the chickadee as a winter friend:
Set forth feast of suet on the
window sill, and he will need no bid
ding to come and parhile of it. How
daintily he helps hin self to the tiniest
morsels, never cramning his bill with
gross mouthfula as do his comrades al
the board, the nuthatcE and the downy
woodpecker! They, like unbidden
guests, doubtful of welcome or of suffer.
ance, even, make the most of time that
may prove all too bref, aud gorge
themselves as greedily a, hungry tramps
while he, unscared by YOUR face at the
window, tarries at his repast, pecking
his crumbs with leisurGy satisfaction.
You half expect to see h\m swept from
your sight like II thistle down by the
gusty blast, bur he holds bravely to his
perch, unruffled in spirit ii not in
feathers, and delies his 1i,rce assailant
with his oft-repeated challenge.
AS often as you spread the simple
feast for him he will CONF and sit at
your board, a confding guest, well
assured of welcome and viii repay you
with an example OF cheerful life in the
midst of dreariness and des3ation. In
the still, bright days, his dheery voice
nngs through the frosty ain aud when
the thick veil OF the sno7 falls IN a
wavering slant from the Low sky its
muffied cadence still heartens you.
What an Intense spark Of Vitality must
it be that warns sucn mite in such an
immensity of cold; that float his little
life in this demge of frigid air, and
keeps him in song while we are dunno
with shivering! If our huge hulk, were
endowed with proportionate Vitality,
how easily we might solve the my steries
of the frozen north!

When living near Neosho Falls, Kan,
neighbor, who was market bird
hunter. went from there to Western Mis-
sourl for the purpose OF hunting quaIls
ana prairie chickens in the fall OF the
year, says writer in Science. He took
with him favorite pointer dog. The
route taken was southwark some fifty
miles to Parsons, Kan, by railroad,
thence northeastward to Fort Scott and
on into Missouri, nearly due east from
the latter point. Ali went very well fol-
n few days after he began hunting, but
by some means the dog became lost from
him. He spent two days hunting for 1t,
and as it was no use to try to hunt with
out the dog, he went home and there
found the dog all right. According to
the report OF his family, the dog had
reached there within two days from the
time he had lost him, and as tne distance
was moro than seventy-tive miles, 1t Is
quite certain that the dog took near
cut for home. Now, if this oog had no
sense of direction, what had he that led
him to take what we may confidently
believe to be the straight and true course
tor home, when he had passed over the
other two sides of the triangle by rail?
WAC does not know that cat, or even
a haf-grown kitten, taken a long way
from home in bag, nearly always finds
its way back? When llvlng in Northern
Michigan had cat we tired OF, | took
her in boat directly across the lake,
about two Mills, aud turned her loose.
Although it was about SIX miles around
the end of the lake, a circultous course
and certainly one unknown to her by
sight, the next morninS she was back at
the old place. Another case IS just stated
to me OF cat that was taken by rail
fully twenty miles in Southwest Missouri,
and the next day he walked in all right
at his former home.

HOME.

The prince rides up to the palace gates
And his eyes with tears are dim.
For he thinks OF the be2sar maiden sweet
Who never may wei with him.
For home is where the heart Is,
In dwelling great or small,
And there's many a splendid palace
That's never q home al all
The yeoman comes to his little cot
With a song when day is done.
For his dearie is standing in the door
And his children to meet him run.
For home is where the heart is,
In dwelling great or small,
And there's many a stately mansion
That's never a home at all.
Could but live with rly own sweetheart
In a hut with san led hoor
I'd be richer far than a loveIess man
With fame and golden store.
For home is where the heart is,
In dwelling great or small,
And cottage lighted by lovelight
Is the dearest home OF all.

Making Change by Cuttins Coins.

Until recently, when the p.'actice was
