Feed the Birds.

Thoughtlsss people have net the
slightest idea of the suffering of wild
birds during frosty weather, or when
the ground is covered with snow. The
little ones of the household should be
encouraged TO remember the poor
birds, so dependent at this time of year
upon such assistance. Remains of
cold boiled potatoes, broken small. will
be picked up eagerly; handful of
rolled oats will be a perfect feast, and
cooked rice, barley. pease. etc, left
from meal, and all much appreciated
by them. The pleasure of watching
the birds is very great-especially to
children, whose natural love towards
all dumb creatures is intensified by
the knowledge that they are befriend-
ing them, and, perhaps, saving them
from a cruel death. Those living in
city fiat have. perhaps, not the same
opportunity of studying the wonder

To Insure Early Rising.

Early risers resort to all sorts of
methods to make sure that they will
be mp betimes for business or pleasure,
as the necessity may be. Perhaps the
most unique and novel method ever
employed is that of a young revenue
clerk. whose duties once or twice a
week require that he shall be at a GER
tain pier at o'clock, which is about
an hour earlier than he usually gets
up. He tried an alarm clock, but as
often as not he failed to hear it. He
asked one of the servants to arouse

air against the inside of the glass
hard enough so that there is always
a more or less lively circulation of air
over the face of the glass and this pre-
vents the formation OF moisture. The
importance of having the windows
clear can be understood when it is real
lied that the show window represents
large percentage of the value of

1t is enough to give one chilly shiv-
ers up and down his spinal column
and back again to see an electric fan
in the window of store on Euclid

thermometer indicated degree OF
heat approaching that of Kentucky
politics. The fan is in the big window
of the store and it is kept there all
the time, whirling away as though 1t
were summer. 1t is an ordinary ran
and there is nothing about 1t to attract
attention save the fact that 1t is going
and that it is pointed toward the plate
glass window-that is, it blows the
air against the inside of the glass. The
reason for this odd use of an electric
fan in the dead of winter is the solu-
ton of one of the problems that mas
bothered storekeepers for years, ever
since there were stores and winters
probably There have been inventions
without number to solve the problem
of how to keep the frost from forming

inventions to keep the windows clear
