A BLUE-BRD STORY.

Mabel Frink of Alton, Iowa, writes
the Chicago Child-Garqen for April:
l love to read stories written by
little girls or boys, and think maybe
they would like to read my story.
Mine is true story, about pair OF
little bluebirds. One warm Spring
day mamma and were looking out OF
the window, and we saw a pair of blue
birds flying from limb to limb of a
locust tree which stood in the yard,
Just little way from our dining-room
window. Mamma said: II believe
those birds would like a nest in that
tree" So we went into the yard with
some small boards and hammer and
nails, and made little box and put II
between two limbs of the tree. Then
we went into the house to watch the
birds. In a few moments they flew
into the box and around IL. They
seemed to be pleased with their house,
for they began right away TO carry
little sticks into IL. They filled IL full
only leaving place large enough for
their nest. For a number OF days
Mamma Bird sat In the nest and Papa
Bird would sit on limb near by and
sing for her. We could tell which
was Papa Bird, for he wore the dark
est blue suit, with the darkest red vest.
Mamma Bird wore the same kind OF
suit, only a lighter shade OF blue and
red. After a few days we noticed
Mamma Bird carrying worms TO the
nest; then we knew there were baby
birds there. When the little ones
were two days old we saw Papa Bird
flying about and chirping. He seemed
10 have some trouble. We did not see
anything more OF his mate. How
sorry we were for the poor little
brides! Mamma said we must help
Papa Bird TO raise his family. Mamma
stood upon box so she could see into
the nest. All the little birds held up
their heads with their mouths wide
open, and mamma gave each one some
cooked egg from the end OF broom
straw. They ate few times this way
but one day Papa Bird happened TO be
there when mamma was going TO feed
them, and he said just one word tc
them. The little birds put theiI
heads down and tried TO hide. They
kept very quiet all the while mamma
was near the nest, and after that
time they never would eat for US, but
would keep 'quiet, even when Papa
Bird was not there. i do not know
how they could remember what they
were told, and only once, too. We

thought we would try some other way
to help raise the family. We went in
to the garden and found few worms.
We put them in pan and slt II on
the box, and Papa Bird picked them
all out and fed the little birds; then
we knew this way pleas~, bin. The
next time we took the pan to the gar
den for worms, Papa Bird went along
and sat on thesfence and watched US
dig. When the birds were nearly old
enough to fly, Papa Bird brought
another mate home, but she did not
seem to like the home, for she flew in
and out of the box many times and
finally flew away. We helped to raise
the brides, and were anxious to see
them learn to fly. We watched them
very closely, but one da while we
were away Papa Bird taught them to
fly, and TO find food for themselves.
We were very lonesome after our bird

A lust Judge.

Last week, when the dlsgraceful and
disgusting political wrangle for Doodle
was at its height in this city, the Ore
gonian said il should be submitted to
Judge Williams, a man removed from
all temptation, man whose age, ex-
perience, abilities, and character, are
a guarantee that lie would decide
right. Then the Oregonlan thought
he would decide in favor of its gang of
corrupt plunderers. He was not then
permitted TO decide; but Wednesday,
In convention, clothed with not a par
tlcle of authority, and not pretending
to have any, Judge Williams stated
the facts that everybody knew, and
which the Oregonian has heretofore
suppressed. 1t must have been gall
and wormwood to publish, under the
compulsion Of the gaze Of state,
these facts:
"In the first place, Mr.. Simon was
wrong in naming all the judges in his
own interest. One tpolling place.
uC StlCbbcu dI NdllOl Dodlulhk hOuSS,
fixed the hours between and 6;
y 1t was impossible for me and
my neighbors TO vote"
Judge Williams, eX-United States
senator, eX-attorney general of the
United States, could not vote at
primary election! WhyY The Ore
gonlan has said 1t was because Of the
"Frank-Hume-Minto" crowd. Let IL
go out to the world that this most em-
inent and disinterested Republican OF
Oregon says that Mr.. Simon is re-
sponsible for this infamous interfer-
ence with the rights Of American clti-
zens.
Judge Williams farther manifested
his righteous Indignation against the
Simon gang by voting for Mr.. Carey
for chairman of the county congress
sional committee.
The Oregonian has appealed ia
Judge Williams; Judge Williams has
decided; he says both sides were
wrong, and their conduct scandalous.
The Oregonian will scarcely dare TO
yillify Judge Williams, but 1t would
do so persistently and persecutingly
"from this out" IL IL dared.-Port-
land Welcome.

Golden Medical
DISCOVERY
Cures Mnety-eLghf per cent Of all

has progressed so far as to induce repeated

and extreme emaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds Of such cases
reported to US as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery" were genuine cases OF that
dread and fatal disease7 You need not take
our word for H. They have, IN nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever In mis-
represeuting them, and who were often
strongly preiudiced and advised against
a trial Of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess that

Mans best friend among animals is
the dog. A dog never betrays, or for
gets his master. He never does him a
dirty trick. No matter how low a
man may sink, his dog never becomes
ashamed of him. Even Bill Sykes
in Dickens could not forget the
friendship OF his faithful dog. All
good men love dogs, and only very
mean man will abuse a dog. What
kind of man must that be then who
will toss peice of poisoned meat
over a neighbors fence to kill his dog
or who will strew the highways with
poison in order to kill anybody's and
everybody's dogP

"There is no safe rule for the con-

D1agnostic Sign in Malaria.

Philadelphia Record.
DIR. Boisson, French military sur
geon, finds that patients suffering from
malarial affections, even those of mask
ed or latent character, always present
peculiar discoloration of the nails. 1t
appears to be Independent of the local
ity in which the malaria was contract
ed, as he has fonnd it. in soldiers both
from Tonquin and Madagascar. 1t ap-
appears before the rigor, increasing dur
ing the cold stage, and attalns its max
imum in the middle of the hot stage, af-
ter which it gradually diminishes, disap-
pearing towards the close of the sweat
Ing stage. This discoloratlon has been
remarked by other observers, but as
generally been looked upon as due to
clrculatory troubles during the cold
stage. According to DR.. Bolsson, how
ever, it cannot be thus accounted for,
as it commences before the cold stage,
and is most evident later on. Itdiffers
also from the livid blue tint due to To-
cal asphyxia, being of gray slate col
or, and is due probably to a change in
the h@moglobin of those red corpus
cles which are destined to be destroyed
during the acute stage. AS to the dl-
agnostic value of the sign, he has never
failed to find 1t at the commencement
of a malarlal attack, and has observed
it where no fever occurred in an abort
i've attack.

Dig down to the cause of your sick
ness, if you want to get we'll and stay
we'll. Most likely it's indigestion. The
irritating poisons OF fermenting, putrid
food left IN the stomach by indiges-
ton, cause headache, neuralgia, ner-
vousness, dizziness, stomach-ache, nau-
sea, irritability, and all the other we'll
known symptoms OF Indigestion.
They rIso cause many pains and dis
orders which are often laid to other
causes and hence are not easily cured
But as soon as the poisons are removed
ali these symptoms and disorders disap
pear, because there is nothing. left Il

1t prevents the undigested food from
fermenting in the stomach and helps
the stomach to digest its food.

Absorbing Power Of Soil.
Phil. Record.

Phil. Record.
AS preliminary experiment in col
oring flowers DR.. Russell has tested the
power of the soil to retain the various
salts proposed to be used in the case of
white pelargonlums. He took two
glass tubes, foot in length, and three
quarters of an inch in diameter, and
drawn out at one end. These were
filled with soil from a garden, the
amount being 81 cubic inches. He
poured in a solution of sulphate OF cop
per (13 grains to the pint, or quarter
of an ounce to gallon). The water
which came through was tested; but
4 1-3 pints passed through before any
sulphate appeared, and that only after
one month Sc grains we're held by
the soil. Similarly with culphate oi
iron; 81 pints of the solution passed
through before any iron was present in
the water. This took twenty-eight
days, so that AZ grains were held by
the soil. The next experiment was
made with ammonium salts. Ammo
MUM nitrate was poured on the sol
(13 grains to pint; 4 ounces came
through before the ammonium salt
was found. The soil thus retained q
grains. This took only three quarters
of an hour. Ammonium Chloride
With this salt, 5ounces passed through
before ammonia was detected, there
tore, the soil held 81 grains. It rar
through in halt an hour. The slgnlfi
canoe of these experiments showed
that unless the salt be placed directly
| in contact with the roots, it might bt
retained in the soil, and no resul
would follow.
