CARE OF THE WARDROBE.
Some Timely Suggestions About the Put

Some Timely Suggestions About the Put
ting Away Of Summer Finery.
1t is an accepted fact among women,
founded upon good reason, that when
ones belongings are valuable and
costly the services of maid are not a
luxury, but a necessity and really an
care in handling and preserving, and
fine boots, shoes, gloves and handker-
chiefs are not to be tossed about care
lessly and still preserve their fresh
ness. But. without a maid and with a
comparatively simple wardrobe, need
of care even will be found great pro-
lection. In putting away summer wash
dresses they must be rough dried, then
folded neatly and packed in a box or
trunk by themselves. 1t is an excel
lent idea to go over each one and take
the few mending stitches that are
sure to be needed. Challies, crepons
and summer silks should be carefully
shaken and brushed, spots sponged,
bows of ribbon taken off and unmade
if possible or the dust carefully wiped
off with bit of silk dipped in weak
ammonia water. and packed away in
separate boxes The same rule applies
where laces trim the dresses. If these
are washa bic they should be washed.
otherwise shaken and wound around a
bottle or wooden roll. 1t is good
plan to let the dresses hang wrong side

if YOU live in hotel to hang in hot
room the same length of time is a good
substitute. Rump!ed ruches, shields
and bent bones should be taken from
waists, and skilled maid SAYS the

every seam with cologne and water.
Feat athers and flowers should be taken
from the hats and bonnets. wrapped
carefully and separa telv in tissue paper,
and consigned to boxes where they
will not be crushed. The flowers should
have each leaf pulled out, and If

How Sea Birds Drink.

land that could furnish them water,

STRANGE EYES.
Why Do Those of Some Animals Burn ana
Shine in the Dark

Why Do Those of Some Animals Burn ana
shine in the Dark
Why do cats eyes shine in the dark
while mems eyes do not? The author
Of Idle Days in Patagonia" raises this
question without answering it. He
shot and wounded an eagle-owl, and
the sight of the bird, he says. was one
of the greatest surprises with which
nature ever favored him. The owls
haunt was an island overgrown with
grass and tall willows Thither Mr..
Hudson went toward evening and found
him upon his perch waiting for sunset.
He eyed the intruder SO calmly as al
most to disarm him, but hunters Of
specimens have way of hardening
their hearts. Mr.. Hudson fired; the
owl swerved on his perch, remained
suspended for few moments and then
slowly futtered down. Mr.. Hudson
says:
II found my victim stung to fury by
his wounds and ready for the last sur
preme effort. Even in repose he is
big, eagle-like bird; now in the uncer-
tain light he looked gigantic in size-a
monster of strange form and terrible
aspect.
Each particular feather stood on
end, the tawny-barred tail spread out
like fan, the immense tiger-colored
wings, wide open and rigid, so that as
the bird, that had clutched the grass
with his great feathered claws. swayed
slowly from side to side--just as a
snake about to strike sways his head,
or as an angry, watcaful cat moves its
tale-frst the tip of one, then of the
other wing touched the ground.
''The black horns stood erect, while
in the center of the wheel-shaped head
the bsak snapped necessarily. produc-
ing sound like the clicking of
sewing machine This was a suitab BILE
setting for the pair of magnificent
furious eyes, on which gazed with
kind of fascira ton, not unmixed with
fears when l remem bered the agony
suffered on former occasions from
sharp. crooked talons driven into me
to the bone.
The irides were of bright. orange
color, but every time attempted to ap-
proach the bird they kindled into great
globes of quivering yellow flame. the
black pupils being surrounded by
scintillating crimson light which threw
out minute yellow sparks into the air.
When retired from the bird this pre-
ternatural fiery aspect would instantly
vanish.
THE question as to the cause of this
fiery appearance is one hard to answer.
We know that the source of the
luminosity in owls and cats eyes is
the lght-refecting membrane be-
tween the retina and the sclerotic
coat of the eyeball; but the mys-
terry remains When with the bird !
particularly noticed that every time
retired the nicttating mem brane would
immedia tely cover the eyes and obscure
them for some time. as they will when
an owl is confronted with strong sun
light; and this gave me the impress
sion that the fiery, flashing appear
ance was accompanied with or fol-
lowed by burning or smarting senss-
tion.
Il have lived a great deal among
semi-savage men. I have often seen
them frenzied with excitement, their
faces white as ashes, their hair erect
and their eyes dropping great tears of
rage. but / have never seen in them
approaching to that fiery ap-
pearance of the owl. YOUTHS Com
