THE BALD-HEADED EAGLE.
The name Of Bald, or White-headed Eagle
has been given to this bird on account Of
the snowy color OF its head and neck which
makes 1T very noticeable The rest of the
body is a deep chocolate brown, while
along the back 1t is almost black. The tail
is OF the same white hue as the head and
neck. In 1t early life 1t is OF more somber
tints, its beautiful white head and tail not
being obtained until it is four years of age
The Bald Eagle delights in building its nest
high up in some tall tree, and this nest Is
added to year by year. as the bird keeps
the same home, only making additions to
1t. The eggs are laid in January, and the
young one are Matched by the middle Of
February. The Bald Eagle Is very affec-
tionate toward its young and will never
desert them. even il the nest is encircled
by flames. The Eagle is fond of fish, but
being no fisher himself, he obtains his sup
ply from those who are more skilled than
he, robbing the osprey in particular, on
every possible occasion. He has not
very dainty appetite and will eat almost

anything that has ever been alive. Carrion
suits him very well, and he will hold his
own against crowd Of vultures, If he has
a dead horse to feast upon, gorging himself
before permitting them to approach. He
is very fond of lambs, and will even attack
a sickly sheep. sometimes, causing its death
by the use of his strong beak and claws
When hunting, he perches on the top of
some tall tree, looking over vast extent of
country with his sharp far-seeing eyes, and
for the slightest sound which his
quick ear Is able to detect.

THE NEWFOUNDLAND DOG.

Juliet Latour owned a large Newfcund-

juliet was just five years old with large
brown eyes and golden hair.
One Monday morning her mother had her
dressed SO that she might go out driving
with her. Mrs. .Latour told Juliet not to
go out of the yard because there had been
such snow-storm she was afraid Juliet
would get lost.
As Juliet was standing on the porch
waiting for her mother, she suddenly saw
her dog, Prince, RUM ng right past the
gate full speed. and thinking that he had
lost his way she quickly opened the gate
and followed him for quite distance until
suddenly she lost sight of him. She wan

How to Make Fire Balloons That Are
Comparatively Safe

Have you ever studied the resemblance
of soap bubbles to balloons? Do yeu know
that If anything be placed in the atmos-
rhere which is lighter than the atmosphere
l. will ascend? In this We have the whole
theory of balloons and ballooning. The air
has weight and being a fluid permits OBJ
jects to move about in it, so it follows that
if we can find anything lighter than the air
it will ascend in it. Several gases exist
which are lighter than air. These may be
