Do Birds Think

A certain farm house had a verandah
running along its sixty feet or SO of low
browed front. Under this and over the
door in the center, last year, a pair of
robins built their nest, managing to raise
their brood in spite Of much tribulation
from the continued presence and threatened
assaults Of the neighborhood cats.
Well, during last summer, pair of
robins, confidently believed to be the old
tenants, returned to their customary hot
weather resort. made their appearance at
the usual time, but not to rebuild on the
perilous ledge above the door. About
dozen PAGES from the porch stands a we'll
grown acacia tree. wide branched and
thorny. Now. who ever heard of robins, or
any other birds, so lost to common pru-
dence. and SO void of all pathological ap-
probation of cats, as to build nest In
fourteen feet from the ground. But these
birds did it: and. what is more, their ex-
pertinent was a complete success, to the
extent of four robins.
Just below them are closely scattered the
long, sharp rigid acacia thorns, impassab le
un-cat-able; and the neat little nest is as
safe as the treasury vault
Did the birds examine the thorns and
comprehend the situation? Did they rea-
son about 1t and say to themselves: mo
thorns on the door, but plenty of them
here all arranged to suit us; and here we
will sit and sing, and teach our children
how they may also hereafter laugh at all
the cats on Long Island"
It Is hard to tell, but at all events there
is the nest, there are the rhorns

TREATMENT OF DOGS.
How to Give Them Medicine in Pill or
LIQUID Form.

In all treatment of a sick dog remember
you are dealing with a highly sensitive ana
nervous patient. Be very gentle, avoid
roughness or anything likely to alarm him.
says c. H. Lane in All About Dogs. In
giving him any liquid medicine do not open
his mouth; but, placing him between your
knees with his face looking in the Same
direction your own, gently raise his
jaw and pulling his lips away from his
teeth on one side of his mouth to form
cup or funnel, very slowly pour from bottle
or spoon the quantity he is to have into ~
Keep his head raised for q minute or two,
and IL he does not swallow the dose insert
a spoon between his front teeth. This Will
have the effect of drawing off his attention
from the medicine, and he will usually
swallow at once.
If the dose is a pill, bolus or anything
solid, hold his head the same way as be-
fore mentioned, but with the left hand I'M
der the lower jaw press firmly on each sido
with thumb and finger at the junction or
upper and lower jaws. This will usually
cause him to open his mouth, when the
dose should be put into the mouth as far
back as possible over the tongue, or he
will spit it out and close the jaws some.
what sharply, and in most cases the deed
is done. If any trouble arises with the ac-
ton of his front paws. this may be got
over by wrapping him round with a shawl
or coarse apron. When once you have got
into the way of 1t, you will be surprised
how simple 1t is. l am quite sure prac-
teal owner or kennelsman would dose
dozen dogs while a novice was making
bungle over one.

Snow Blindness.

According to the statements of a former
resident in the Klcndyke, the inhabitants
of that region suffer much from snow
blindness. Dark glasses seem to be Of no
value in the way of prophylaxis. That
which afforded the most protection was
wooden goggles. the patterns for which
were taken from those worn by the In
dams. These were whitfield out of piece
of wood, fitting closely around the eyes,
and with no glasses at ALL but in the place
of glasses were very small openings to see
through, the inside being colored black.
A projection like the visor of cap ex-
tended over them, which was also colored
black ON the under side to shade the eyes.

In a battle, a skirmish, a siege q raid.
He repeatedly stated he thought 'twould be fun
To face howitzer, cannon sword, pistol or gun.

Now, Napoleon Wellington fearing no harm,
Went to visit his uncle who lived farm,
And out in the barnysrd he had such shock
There came rushing toward him a great turkey
