a negro boy whom she caught ropolhs
the parent nest. The fiedgling was the
weakling of the flock, and for n rea7
son the boy considered it worthless a
left it on the ground to die. Miss Cheat-
am rescued and raised it, Intending to
free the little captive when 1T could care
for itself.
But that time never came, for no pet
is more helpless than a hooking plrd
reared in captivity.
The second winter of the birds lie 1t
was purchased by a Northern vlsltor 70.
Aiken. who, CHANGING to pass the mouse,
heard it singing. This sale gave the
voung woman an idea which she was not
| slow to follow, and now she does a thriv-
ing business with native song birds OF
| the South. Miss Cheatam does not az
|8tempt to hatch them herself, put watch
| ing her chance, goes boldly TO tue spol
where the parent birds have made thelr
/ ZONES and lifts the nests, with their
young broods, off. This is fthe#pest ana
| most humane method, especially with tue
hooking birds, for if a human name once
| enters their nest the parent plro WIN
xiii every remaining fedgling, and ac-
| cording to Miss Cheatam, her greatest
enemies are these same parent plros' LOT
they try in every way to poison a onu
| which they find Gagged.
Beagle raising is the means by whlcn

began by the sale of a pet dog. One OF

picturesque spot in the woods.

Miss Asch sold her first dog, and the
price paid was s35. She at once saw an
opening, had kennels built and invested
her little capital in dogs to breed from
Now she has a thriving business, wnlcr
not only pays well, but is both heaitn1u
and pleasant, since she is fond OIL ooss
and out-of-door exercise.
Another Southern woman, Miss Ids
Norrell, near Augusta, Ca, is earning
a fair living by distilling cape jasmines

still a secret. She has refused good OF
fers for her recipe.
The cape jasmine, as every one VINO
has visited the South Knows, is easily
kgrown and blossoms in the greatest pro
