FOR THE CHILDREN
Don't XIII the Birda.

heard bird lover say the tother day
TINT II all the birds were banished from
the earth we could; not possibly live on
It for any length OF time. Did you
know birds were so Important? Just
think of It! The birds make It possible
for us to ivei They are as necessary
TO us as water and air and food. One
reason why they are 80 important Is
that they ear very many seeds of pol
sonous plants and weeds. which, IL the
birds did not destroy them. would over
run things. Then they eat so many
gr,lbs. which destroy our grain and
fruit trees and bushes. We should I've
overrun with those also II the birds did
not help US out. There are other req
sons. too, why we should want every
bird to live. How many of yoS know
them?
Just Mt this time Of year our little
friend the yellow bird makes himself
familiar again. The sociable little fel-
lows do not retire to the woods, but
seem to prefer the gayer life of cultI-
vated ground. They seldom appear in
docks and will often be found in or
near orchards and shade trees, search
ing for small caterpillars and canker-
worms.
Keep your eyes open and see II you
cannot find the yellow bird again by
the following description:
song.-Merry and happy and Sweet
sweet swe-eet-y."
Size.-Nearly five inches long.
Mnie.-Head above, bright yellow:
back. olive green; golden yellow, streak
ed with orange, below; dark. SENDER
bill and dark feet.
Femaie.-Like the male, but breast
stripes more indistinct.
From the song Of the yellow bird. as
we'll as his appearance you may well
exclaim, "Why. there's a strnyed ca
naryr'
II you can find a nest In the shrub
berry with thick, closely woven walls
Of vegetable material and in 1t three
to five dull eggs, marked around the
larger end with brown spots. you will
know you have found the yellow birds
home, and II you are patient and do not
disturb the nest or birds the baby ycl-
low birds will soon be Matched and
ready to sing joyously to you.-St. Low

Ne Interested In Something.

I wonder how many boys and girls
have some one special thing that they
are interested in. There are so many
things to be interested in in this age.
1t is well to be very much interested in
everything and to be especially inter
ested in some one thing. know n
boy who Is interested In geography
and reads It Just as he would read a
story book. know q girl who is inter
ested In bugs and catcrpillars and
moths, all sorts OF things that are
alive. She has quite a collection Of
butterflies and all kinds of insects.
know some boys who are more interest
ed In snakes than in anything. They
are very well acquainted With their
habits. Another set of boys il interest
cd in machinery, another group in pho
Biography, some girls are Interested in
fancy work, some in flowers and some
In birds. Some night when you are all
alone in bed just think and think till
you have made up your mind what you
would most like to know all about,
whether horses or electricity or sea-
shells or whatever else may occur to
you. Make up your mind that you will
know one thing well.
There Is another very fascinating
thing to think about, and that Is what
you want to do when you are grown mp.
1t doesn't matter whether you are rich
or poor, you can all do pretty much
what you want to do II you begin early
enough and stick to the idea. 1t is a
glorious thing to feel that we have the
power within ourselves to be some
thing worth while and to do something
worth while.

Heat and Butterflies.

Professor Standfuss of Zurich has
been studying the effects of solar heat
and temperature on butterflies. More
than 10000 butterflies were subjected
to close examination. Some degrees

appearance Of having been born in d
warner or colder climate. On one &C.
casioR it being very cold in Switzer-
land. a butterfly common there sudden
~ began to look like butterfly from
Lapland. Others subjected to a higher
solar temperature changed and looked
like butterflies from Corsica or Syria.
The experiments, which are to be con-
tinued. led to the production of butter
flies of an entirely new type, some be-
ing Of very beautiful description.

FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
10 Pre.erve Cut Flowers.

e
Cut flowers, though universally emf
ployed, are seldom treated as they
ought to be, SO here are few hints for
those who like to keep their blossoms
fresh as long as possible. First of all,
they should be put into some large re-
ceptacle and .sprinkled freely with wa
ter all over. Only after this prelimi-
nary operation is it wise to transfer
them to the several pots they are to
occupy. They ought to be taken out
every morning, sprinkled as on the
first day, the tip Of the stem then being
cut off, and fresh water, flowing
smoothly from tap "a bath spray Is
the very thing for this purpose), should
be allowed to run over the stalks, hold
ing the flowers head downward. FL
nally-and herein lies the principal Sc
cret Of SUCCESSIVE water in the vases
may be "doctored" in this manner: Mix
thoroughly together a tablespoonful OF
finely shredded yellow soap. enough
chloride of sodium to cover quarter
and half pint of water. Put por-
ton of this mixture into every recepta-
Gle and fill in the usual way. A pinch
Of borax in each one will preserve all
the coloring Of the most brilliant flow
ers, and by renewing the supply of the
above solution every two or three days
the flowers will last for couple Of
weeks or more. Palms and all foliage
plants must be carefully but moder-
ately watered, washed, put outside
daily for a bath of air and sunshine
and must not be stood in drafty places.

College Graduates Increasing.

The graduating, lists Of the American
colleges this year show an increase Of
% per cent. 1t seems probable that
all the institutions Of learning will
have more than&their usual quota of
students next fa1N From time to time
the demand for college men in all
branches of business as well as in the
professions is gradually increasing.
Our colleges graduate men and women
with practical as well as artistic ideals.
A notion prevails that girls who have
been so fortunate as to complete a
course in college do not make good
wives. This notion is devoid of COM
mon sense. The more brain man or
woman can put into his or her work
the bettertth that work viii be. This
rule holds as surely in the responsible
work Of housekeeping, in social rela-
lions and in domestic economy as in
agriculture, the arts, mechanism, law,
medicine or theology.-Success.
