Wants.
A claia OF lovers that may well BIO
considered is that OF which tho blue
bird is one conspicuous example and
the golddneh another-tho ciess in
which tht females do all the w,rk OF
nest-buildlng. whllo the males devote
themselves to singing, says the Chau-
tauquan. At first thought these males
are 80 very much like some mon that
we all know-men who are pretty and
are given TO compliments and who are
enabled TO dress well through the wis
dom and labor OF their wlyes-that
they are sllghtlngly spoken OF by near
ly all students OF bird habits. Even
the gorgeous Baltimore orlole Is but
half complmented, for he only occa-
aionally helps at the Matchmaking. But
let tho observer consider the cases OF
these birds little further and II APP
pears that the orlole. at least, is de-
serving OF sympathy rather than faint
praise. No one can watch tho orlole
lady at her knitting for any length OF
time without seeing her good man try

ofer TO weave It in. but the chances
are that the madam VIII first order

a dash at him with her bill that sends
him mourning to another tree. He
really mourns. too. though In silence.
/ have known OF case where male
oriole sat watching bis wlfo for a half
hour without singing a single note. The
blueblrd. too, Is often treated very
brusquely by his little better half. The
truth Is the poor fellows who have
been derided for singing In idle do
light while their wives toiled are not
n little henpeoked. The goldnnch can
not be called honpecked but he certain
ly does not deserve oensure. Madam
builds her nest because she can do Il
better than no can. That he would
like to help is perfectly plain TO one
who watches, for he goes with her as
she flies away for material, sits by her
as she picks Il up and illes back with
her as she returns 10 tho nest to weave
II In. And wherever he Coca he bub-
bles over with song. People who blame
the males for not helping TO build do
not understand, / think, the difference
between work as we sec Il and work
as birds see IL. To us labor is drudg-
cry; TO the birds It is delightful play.
