A Joker Among Birds.

The bluejay is the most persistel
practical Joker in the feathered king

small birds are accustomed to gather,
and when they are enjoying them.

by screaming out like a hawk. or
course they scatter in every direction,
and when they do so the msChievous
rascal gives vent to cackle that
sounds very much like laugh. If he
confined his pranks to such jokes as
this, however, he would not be such
bad neighbor to birds smaller than

by breaking the eggs In their nests

his bill he becomes a pestilent nuis.

More HITS In Church

Time was when men wore their
hats in church, and Pepys evidently
considered it an unnecessary piece of
strictness to insist on the bare head
in the church. In his diary for No.
vomber II, 1861, he has an entry: "To
church and heard a simple follow
upon the praise of church musique,
ami explaining against mems wearing
their hats in church." On September
% following he went to the French
church at the Savoy, where the min.
lister do preach with his hat off. |
suppose in further conformity with
our church" Probably it was about
this date that the custom of removing
hats in the church began.-London

possible to ascertain that the earlier re-
ports OF grain crop damage from rains

industries iron and steel still rank first III

and coke, limiting pig iron production
at critical period. The labor situa-

Railway earnings thus far reported tor

show an aggregate gain oil y per cent On

crops and trade point to the maintc

of food prices, particularly OF cereals
and meats, are based on small immedi'
ately available supplies, rather than fears
of possible future shortage. Except 10
wheat, highest prices paid for ten -
twenty years past at this time are bcin9
paid. Textiles and other manufacture
goods tend lower, and thus affect tn
general level of values.
