Playthings for Animals.

Olive ThOrne Miller.
To make him thoroughly happy,
a bird in a house needs some
amusement. He pines for some
thing to interest; and like a child
kept in he should be provided
with playthings. A pet paroquet
that | once knew, though he had
the freedom of his masters house,
was furnished with a small basket
of playthings, a bunch of keys,,a bit
Of chain, a spool or two, a few
marbles and other things. The bird
knew as well as any child that the
basket and its contents were his,
and he made great row if any
one touched them. Many times a
day he got down his basket and
amused himself an hour at time
with his treasures.
Another bird-a parrot-had to
be entertained every day; and If
poodle were busy and he was neg
lected, he helped himself to play
things. A favorite object was a
spool of thread, from which he cut
the contents with his sharp beak,
and then demolished the spool. A
lead pencil or pen handle to bite
and reduce to splinters was accep-
table and indeed, he could amuse
himself with almost anything, and
when he was not supplied with a
stock of his own, he was always
in mischief.
A thrush l once had used to
amuse himself with the hanging
fringe of towel laid over chair.
He would run at it, try to pull out
the threads, and holding by the
beak, swing back and forth with
great relish.
A crumpled newspaper laid on
the floor is often a sCource of plea.
sure; also, ball that rolls easily
as a marble. A string is the delight
of most birds; but it is dangerous
for they are apt to tangle it around
their legs, and brighten, if not hurt
themselves. Moreover, some birds
will swallow string, and suffer
until they throw it up.
All this may be accomplished
with a bird without, making
him what is called tame that is, Sc
much at home that he will come
at your call, alight on you freely
take food from your lips and lei
you stroke or handle him.

Watching Drumming Grouse.

Watching a Drumming Grouse.
From Forest and Stream.
Early in one October / had the
only opportunity which has ever
presented itself in my twenty years
of experience in forest and field of
studying the method employed by
the cock partridge in producing
that peculiar sound known among
sportsmen as drumming.
l was out with my gun looking
for quail quite early in the morn
ing, and was working toward a
small wooded swamp where |
knew the birds found safe shell.
ter at roOsting.time, as well as
from the gun when flushed by dog,
for no hunter, no matter how ar
dent, would have the temerity to
brave the suck-holes and Wild
brier vines. Hearing the call OF a
quail, stopped to listen and locate
him positively. l stood facing a
stone wall distant about six rods,
on each side Of which grew hazel
bushes. Suddenly out of those on
the opposite side sprang fine old
cock partridge and dropped on the
wall directly In front of me, tail
spread, ruff standing out, and crest
raised-the picture of alertness.
What a chance for an artist. |
hardly breathed. Between US was
a small alder bush. tall and slim.
This was the only shelter, yet the
bird did not seem to notice me, for
after standing moment, he began
preening himself, seeming to enjoy
the rays of the sun, which shone
warm and bright.
/ stood and watched him thus
for probably ten minutes; and
was considering whether to let
him go altogether or flush and try
a shot, when he stopped, shook
himself, stretched one wing and
leg, then the other, look all round,
and slightly raising his feathers
as a sitting hen when disturbed,
raised his wings little above
horizontal line and brought them
down against his body, increasing
the time until it ended in tiutter
as it seemed. ThisI watched him
repeat; the third time l moved
also. But l stopped him not 10 feet
from where he stood; and when
1 heard him giving his last flutter
| felt like murderer.
l am prefectly satisfied on one
point, however, that the"mysteri-
Gus noise" as some term it is pro-
duced by striking the wings
against the body. AS many will
admit who have had the opportun-
ity to observe, the sound is more
pronounced and distinct at a dis
lance than very near it, where it
has muffled, fluttering sound.

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
allthe organs Of the body are under the con.
troll of the nerve CenterS, located in or near
the base of the brain, and that when these are
deranged the organs which they supply with
nerve tiuid are also derangGd. When it Is re-
membered that n serious injury TO the spinal
cord will cause paralysis of the body below
the injured point, because the nerve force Is
prevented by the injury from reaching the
paralyzed portion, it will be understood nov
the derangement of the nerve centers VIII
cause the arrangement or the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
TwO-thirds Of chronic diseases are due TO
the imperfect action of the nerve centerS at
the base of the brain, not from derange-
rnsnt primarily originating in the organ it.
self The great mistake or physicians IN
treating these diseases is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centerS when
are the cause of the trouble.
DR.. FRANKLIN MILES, the celebrated spe-
cialist,ha profoundly studied this SUBJECT Tor
over 20 years, and has made many important
discoveries in connection with II, chlef among
them being the facts contained in the above
statement, and that the ordinary methods OF
treatment are wrong. All headache, dtZZI-
ness, dullneSs confusion, pressure, blues,
mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, 81
VituS dance, etc, are nervous diseases no
matter how caused. The wonderful success OF

fact that it is based on the foregoing principle.
