Know When They Arc Hungry.

Pigeons must have the credit Of pos
sessing some intelligence. A curious
and very interesting sight may be seen
each day, Sundays excepted, at one Of
the windows of the Office of Henry w.
Williams, in the Rialto building, oppo-
site the postofice. For the past few
years some 80 or 40 pigeons have been
there regularly fed at II o'clock. A
bushel of cracked grain is purchased at
time for the purpose. The birds gath
er on the west side of the postoffice and
watch for the window to open. They
know perfectly we'll when that hour ar
rives. If there should chance to be
any delay in opening the window, they
will often fly over to the other windows
of the same Office and tap on the glass
to remind the clerks who may be sitting
there that it is time for their breakfast.
The minute the window opens they land
on and about the sill and push and
crowd and stand on each others backs
and sometimes fight, SO eager are they
to pick up the grain which is spread all
about the outside. They soon become
quite tame and readily eat out of the
hand.-Boston Transcript.

s1aurhter Of smaII Bass.

Mr.. W. L. Powell, treasurer of the
Pennsylvania fish commission, sends an
account of the depletion of Maiden creek
by fishermen, who catch bushels Of
yearling black bass with small hooks.
A veteran angler fished this stream re-
Gently with a fly rod, and in the course
of day took sixty bass ranging from
~ to 6 inches in length. All Of
them were lip hooked and were lib
Grated alive. The creek was full Of
yearling bass during July, and news
paper accounts mentioned their capture
by the bushel by means of hooks so
small as to be readily swallowed by the
fish. The absence of big bass even in
moderate numbers is notorious, but in
the light of this information it is readily
explained.-Forest and Stream.

The Irish Terrier Now in Favor.

Every dog has his day, and the Irish
terrier at length has his. He is now all
the vogue In London, and one can only
wonder why he was SO long about "com-
ing in" for with his beautiful eyes and
pretty head he is beyond question one
of the wisest Of the canine tribe. He is
an "all round" dog, ready for a romp
with the children or q rat hunt. He
takes to the water like a duck, is "all
there" il wild fowling expedition,
flushing and retrieving beautifully, and,
as any man will tell you from Kill to
Connaught, he is "a darlint wild the rab-
bits" He ought to be proud Of himself
today, for his market value ranges from
ten to twenty pounds.-Pall Mall Ga
zette.

West Virginia,

West Virginia, with less than $780,
900 inhabitants, has but three cities
and is essentially rural and half set
tied region. In spite of her enormous
wealth In timber and mines also, many
of her counties number only handful
of people. No West Virginia county
has so, 900 inhabitants, and only 0 have
more than 30, 900, while 10 have less
than 10000 and two less than 5000.
In many of the mountainous counties
the conditions of life are simple to the
last degree, and the people are far re-
moved from the great currents of ma
tional life In spirit as we'll as in distance
and time.-New York Sun.

The College of Cardinals.

No fewer than ten members of the col
lege of cardinals have died during the
last nine months. AS only two new
members have been created within that
time, the college has a lower member
ship than it has had for a long period.
When complete it has seventy members;
at present the number is tifty-one. Aus
tria, Germany and Poland have six car
dinals between them, France has FIVE,
Spain four, Portugal two, and the United
States, Belgium, Australia and Canada
one each. All the other cardinals are
Italians, Italy thus having large ma
jority in the college.-London Tit Bits.

The Tea Trade.

The American people will spend over
gil, 100000 for Chinese tea in 1912
OF this vast sum the planters will re-
ceive 5000, 900, the tradesmen and home
dealers $2,5OO,0O0 and foreigners, with
no interest in America or China, the
handsome balance of $5,500,000. Why
can not we have some of it? There is
the same field here today as in the time
Of Low, Grinnell, Rowland and Train,
when we were the owners Of the China
trade. Why do not our business men
take advantage of the opportunity

Saw you ever place in your wander
ings quite so beautiful, one-half so COM
Portable, one tenth so welcome and one
hundredth part SO dear as this plain
looking house, with the dusty door steps,
the close barred shutters, an area lawn
not six feet wide, and lovely garden
in the back yard paved with bricks?
The very dog, delighted to get home,
makes rush for his kennel, thousand
laughs to the minute in his vibrant tail.
With nervous eagerness he futters here
and there, investigating dismantled
caches of half remembered bones, while
now and then a yelp of indignant re-
monstrance announces the discovery
that much despised and intensely hated
cats have had the outrageous effrontery
to invade his domain during his abb
sence. In the greater house, with much
the same dismay, the good wife, fool
ishly seeking for things she does not
wish to find, proclaims the invasion OF
the moths. What a nervous tension in
every heart as the good man, trying
with most stupid transparence to veil
his own eagerness under a clumsy as
sumption of deliberation, unlocks the
front doorl
Everybody says, "Oh, pa, we could
have had it open fifty timesl" 80 could
he if he wasn't 80 eager to get in.
When it is opened just wide enough for
one person to squeeze through at a time
the entire family make rush to march
in abreast. The household flows through
the long deserted rooms like living
torrent, torrent and half, or two tor
rents. Vainly does the commander-in-
chief endeavor, by word of command
and clutch Of hand, to restrain the
household troops. They will be well
disciplined garrison in day or two;
just now they are ruthless invaders. It
is her natural desire to have the first
look in every room, to make the first
orderly investigation in every quarter.

Beautiful Explanation That Was Painful

Landlord Allan is always looking for

Alas, alas, eheu!
That the sky is only blue
To gather from the grass
The rain and dew.
Alas, that eyes are fair;
That tears may gather there
Mist and the breadth of signs
From tho marsh of care.
Alas, alas, eheu!
That we meet but to bid adieu;
That the sands in Times ancient glass
Are so swift and few.
Alas, alas. eheui

To gather, where false feet pass,

Napoleon's Talisman.

Louis Napoleon, who believed himself,
even amid exile and poverty, destined to
that throne which the prestige Of his
name and his cunning coup d'etat en-
abled him to reach, was not without his
superstitions. In his will he says, "With
regard to my son, let him keep as a tails
man the seal used to wear attached to
my watch" This talisman had no power
to turn aside the fatal spears of the
Zulus, and the young Napoleon met
sadder fate than his fathers worst fears
could have imagined for him.-Detroit

A HARDwoRKINe WOMAN.

All day she hurried to get through,
The same as lots of wimmin do:
Sometimes ut night her husban said,
"Ma, amt you goin to come 10 bed?"
An then she'd kinder give hitch,
An pause half way between a stitch,
An sorter sigh. an say that she
Was ready as she'd ever be,
She reckoned.
An so the years went, one by one,
An somehow she was never done;
An when the angel said as how.
"Mis' Smith. it's time you rested now"
She sorter raised her eyes to look
A second, as a stitch she took.
