A HARD YEAR FOR BIRDS.

The Cold Waves Ia the south Destroyed o
Great Number.
People who live on the city pave
mcnts do not know the pathetic loss
which the New England and middle
states - and probably the western
statcs-sufferei from the absent
notes OF the early spring birds. When
that February cold wave went south
and sent the thermometer in Georgia
to ten degrees below freezing-the
lowest record for cold that state has
any account of-the birds, southern
and northern, were found dead In the
various door yards and fields there in
large numbers. One gentleman from
Georgia informs us that he discov-
cred great many dead mocking
birds near his house, and also many
dead orioles. The loss of the Flori-
da orange orchards. with the
oranges ready Tor market, though
IL amounts to many millions of dollars,

loss OF the birds will be felt through
the whole northern country, and is one
which 1t Will take many years, per-
haps. to make good.

in many places silent, or infrequent;
and the song sparrow and the Phoebe.
so far rs we have noticed, are In many
places, and in more than one county,

April saw the orchard and field and
door-yard voicclcss To an unwonted de-
gree.
just as we felt well assured Of this
unusual fact an intelligent gentleman
of Springfield, Mass, who is himself n
well-known writer on the phases of
nature, informs MS that he has missed
the blucbirds and many other of the
feathered early corners in that neigh
borhood. Now, it Is well known that
the Connecticut river valley is II favor
tie haunt of all our common birds, and
around Springfield not less I an from
twelve to twenty species OF birds that
are far northern or far southern can

VALUE OF A MINUTE.
Divisibiiity Of Timr-- Travels OF the Earth
In AN Hour.


Napoleon. who knew the value of
time, remarked that it was the quarter
hours that won battles. The value OF
minutes has been often recognized, and
any person watching n railway clerk
handing out tickets and change during
the last few minutes available must
have been struck with how much conld
be done in those short portions of time.
At the appointed hour the train
starts, and by and by is carrying pas
sengcrs at the rate of sixty miles an
hour. In second you arc carried
twenty-nine yards In onc-twcnty-
ninth of n second You pass over one
yard. Now. one yard is quite an APP
preciable distance, but one twenty
ninth Of second Is n period which
can not be appreciated.
Yet, II is when we come to planetary
and stellcr motions that the notion of
the infinite divisibility Of time dawns
upon us in new light. Itwould seem
that no portion If time. however mi
croscopic, is unavailable. Nature can
perform prodigies, not certainly IN less
than no time, but in portions of 1t 10
minute rs to be altogether inconceiva-

twenty-four hours. AT the equator
her circumference is $4,000 miles.

Sad Fate OF u Ground Hog.

A freight car loaded with grain was
side-traclsed few days ago in Phila-
delphia. One Of the attaches about

and left 1t standing ajar. Shortly
after this little animal poked its nose
out OF tine door and then jumped to the
ground below. II was ground hog.
A little colored boy. who happened to
be near, saw the animal and gave
chase. The ground hog was SO fat
from feasting upon. the ineXhanstible
supply of wheat TINT 1t couldn't run u

How to Clean Lace Curtains.

Many housekeepcrs object to putting
away their lace curtains in u soilcd
condition, us they say that the dirt
left in them all summer is harder to
wash out and requires n much severer
rubbing OF the delicate fabric. II one
has curtain frame, 1t is very simple
matter to do them up Mt home, but IL
is by no means impossible to manage
without one. The curtains should be
left to soak in warm soapy water, SO
that they will require rs little rub
bling rs possible to Get them clean, and
this should be done with the hands,
us board is simply ruinous. Make
thin boiled starch, slightly blue, and
dip the curtains in, wringing them out
gently. Then take clean bed sheets
and pin the curtains on the sheets TO
dry, being careful to pin them exactly
in shape, so that they will be perfect
" square and even when dry. Some
people damp and iron the curtains, but
1t Is very bad for the fabric, and they
will never hang properly afterward.-

The Clnthinr Of Nurses.

One Of the greatest advantages Of
pr OCCASIONAL, aside from the scientific
training in her work, lies in the fact
that she is thoroughly and completely
equipped. Her clothing is simple, Of
cotton or stuff goods that can be easily
washed. She has an abundance of
long, white aprons that completely
envelop The front of her gown. Her
shoes are noiseless slippers with rub
Der heels, SO that her football will not
irritate the most sensitive invalid. The
English nurses wear neat linen collars
and turned-back cuffs. There are large
pockets in their aprons to hold neces-
sary implements. As these aprons are
made of n strong quality of linen, u
considerable number Of things can be
put in these pockets without any dan
ger of their tearing down. An English
nurse is always provided with medi-
cine tumbler and drop measure for
giving medicine, and other articles for
sickness which well-appointed families
In America generally keepin the house
for emergencies, but which are very
often missing when the emergency
comes.-N. Y. Tribune.
