Where tho syvalIo,vs Go.

The swallows all spend the winter
in Central America and the south part
OF Mexico. They appear in the south
ern states as early as the middle of
February, but seldom get as far north
as New England until the month of
May. The robins winter in the south
ern states and in northern Mexico
They are to be seen in fiocks the
winter through in the gulf states, and
are often killed in great numbers
there, as they are in very GOOD condi-
ton in the winter season. The migra-
tory instinct is not so strong in this
bird as in some others, and as far
north as Ohio 1t often remains in
sheltered places all winter. Its at
tachment to familiar spots is very
strong.

By Using Its Dainty Little Ferepaw.
49, I'm n skiDfuI Way 1t Secured
n Meal.

One day naturalist lay notion
less on fallen log in the forest,
and silently watched an animal at
play on the grass near by. This was
q large, brown-baclxed mouse, a mead
ow mouse, that had come out from his
home under the log and when tired
OF play had sat up to make his toilet.
Using his forepaws as hands, the
mouse combed the white fur on his
breast and licked himself smooth and
sleek. Satisfied at length with his
appearance, he began to search for
food
He did not have far to go, for a few
stalks of wheat grew among the
thick weeds near at hand. The mouse
was so large that he could probably
have bent the stalk down and
brought the grains within reach. III
not, he could certainly have climbed
the stalk. He did not try either of
these plans, however, for these were
not his ways. Sitting up very straight,
he bit through the stalk as high as
he could reach.
The weeds were so thick that the
straw could not fall it's full length,
and the freshly cut end settled down
upon the ground with the straw still
erect and the grain out of reach.
The mouse again Dit the strawin two,
and again the upper portion Settled
down. In this way he bit off five
lengths of straw before he could
bring the grain within reach of his
paws. These forepaws were very
skillful little hands, and he deftIy
husked grain and ate it, sitting
erect and holding it to his mouth as
naturally as q boy would hold an
apple.-Our Animal Friends.

When men rejoice women pray.
 Every woman was born queen and her realm is her home.
 Remove pride from man and you have a very common animal.
 Sympathetic people are the ones the world crushes the hardest.
 It's few women that can like man who hasn't nerve sufficient to talk back.
 The first baby appears to always be a source of joy; the tenth a a source of regret.
 Remove remerse and regret from the world and you've nearly at tained the millennium.
 There are more children of the present day that simply "groW up" than are raised.
 Lots of men think they have been snubbed, when it's on.y their vanity that has been touched.
 Any weman's face becomes beau I,tiful whose heart encases tender ness, charity aid virtue.
 If you ask the average girl the reason why, nine out of ten will al ways answer "causs."
 Men who go well dressed com mand more money from sensible business men than the sIouch.
 Lots of women look we'll 1" com mon fabrics, because they under stand the sience of neatness.

 The worst sign for any man or woman to carry is to be accused oi continually reading borrowed news papers,

The striking and important events of the last year have established the overw helning value of the THRICE-A- WEEK WORLD to every reader For an almost nominal sum it has kept it's subscribers informed of the pro gress of all our. wars and. moreover, has reported them as promptly and fully as if it were daily With our interests still extending throughout the world, with our troops operating in the Philippines, and the great pres idential campaign, too, at hand, it's value IS further increased.
 The motto of the THRICE-A-WEEK WORLD is improvement. It strives each year to be better than il was the year before, and public confidence in 1t is shown by the fact that 1t now circulates more than twice as many papers every week as any other news paper, not daily, published in America.

 J. MILTON MUNsoN. Cheshire, N Y, Dec. 10. 1899.
 The chief cause of the trouble in South Africa is the treatme mt of the Oatlanders (non Boer settlers iD the Transvaal. In 1894 the Boer population in the TransvsaI and the Orange Free State was es- timated at 70,86I, and the Out lander8 at 77,G00, invluding 62.5O9 British subjects. But the register ed voters numbered only 18,126. Many of these outlanders have been in the country since 1887, yet not one of them that has a voice in the government, although the treasury, formerly bankrupt, has been resplenished as a result of their industry. Other grievances are the dynamite monopoly, which seriously affects tbe miners, and various unjust trade restrictions.
