How Birds Dress Wounds.

Many birds, particularly those that
are prey for sportsmen, possess the fac
ulty of skillfully dressing wounds.
Some will even set bones, taking their
own feathers to form the proper ban
dages. \ French naturalist writes that
on number of occasions he has killed
woodcocks that were, when shot, con
yalescing from wounds previously re-
ceived. ...s % . 49,, dgE. y. ...r.---s
In every instance he found the old
injury neatly dressed with down
plucked from the stem feathers and
skilfully arranged over the wound, evil
IDENTIFY by the long beak of the bird. In
some instances a solid plaster was thus
formed, and in others bandages had
been applied to wounds or broken
limbs.
One day he killed bird that evil
IDENTIFY had been severely wounded at
some recent period. The wound was
covered and protected by sort of net
work of feathers, which had been
plucked by the bird from its own body
and so arranged as to form a plaster.
completely covering and protecting the
wounded surface The feathers were
fairly Melted together, passing alter
nately under and above each other and
forming textile fabric of great pro
tective power. Youth s Chronicle

Why Grace Was Omitted.

A tiny girl of seven gave a dinner
party the othel day, for which u GOV
ers were laid, and that number OF
small maidens sat down to dine. II
was real little girls dinner, and the
little hostess herself presided, sitting
at the head of the table. She had
been very anxious, in looking forward
to it, to do everything as it should be
done.
MAMA, " she asked, "shall we say
grace?"
NO. said mama, sit will be a
very informal dinner, and | think you
need not do that. "
That meant one ceremony the less to
be gone through and was "A relief. But
the little lady was anxious to have all
her guests understand it, So, as they
gathered about the table, she ex-
planned:

fernal dinner that we need not have
grace today ,''-Baltimore Sun.

A Serious Defect.

Paderewski Joseffy Fortissmo Lee
Was the greatest pianist you ever ala see;
He rendered fantasies, gavottes and cantatas,
Cadenzas and overtures fugues and sonatas.
He could play like the sweep of rushing cy-
clone,
Or as softly and low as the south winds faint
moan.
He knew all the works of Beethoven and List2,
OF Wagner and Chopin-not one had ne missed
He gained honors and laurels wherever he went,
And he knew he deserved them, so he was con-
tent.
But his pride had fall, for one summer day
A dear little girl came to hear this man play;
And she said as he turned politely to greet her,
please, sir, can you play Peter, Peter, pump
kin Eater?''
He was deeply chagrined and he felt very blue,
But he meekly replied, mo, can't, dear. Can

"Oh, Yes she responded. She flew to the keys
With her two fat fore fingers she playcdit with
ease.
And she afterward said, ~ would rather beme

1t is hard to please people anyhow.
If a man is economical you call him
parsimonious: if he is spendthrift
you call him a fool if he is rich you
call him a plutocrat. Wealth is the
victim of its own environment. When
you see one of those figures in a gro
Gerry window grinding coffee the figure
seems to be running the machine, but
in reality the machine is running the
figure, and the figure cannot very well
escape the tyranny of its own sur
roundings. Congressman Hamilton of
Michiuan
