MAMMOTH BlRDCAGE.
One of the Little Known Attractions
OF the National Capital.

Washington, In addition TO its other
attractions, possesses the largest bird.
cage In the United States, perhaps in
the world. II is 10 by 300 feet ground
dimensions and 100 feet high and is
located i'm the very heart of the city,
at the busiest point in busy section.
1t IS, in fact, the court of the post
Office building, and az t!mcs ii is filed
with sparrows, their twittering filling
the air and lending a strange incon-
gruity TO the otherwise solemn sur
roundlngs OF the great building.
The birds enter the glass covered
court through the ventllating Stats at
the north and south ends near the peak
OF the roof. and only by accident do
they find their way again TO the open
air. At times there are scores of them
flying about within the Enclosure; then
a few disappear and others enter. Over
the mairoom on the ground floor
there is Hat, glass covered roof, par
titioncd off with planks. and on these
latter are arranged many palms from
the botanical gardens.
Among these the birds disport them
selves as In tropical freedom, and were
food supplied them there is small doubt
that they would engage to remain in
definitely In such comfortable quarters,
for after the first fright at seeming
capture OF new bird the little crea-
lures seem TO adapt themselves happily
to their new quarters, and only when
| the pangs of hunger attack them do
they make any attempt to find their
way again to the OPEN Washington

that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
ia better and does not cost so much.
It causes the patient to throw up
