| of the more retiring whip poor@will.
 These birds come from their warm win ter residences following the awakening of insect life. Their habits are entirely nocturnal, and they live exclusively on an insect diet. The whip poor-wills come first, and often enliven the even | ings for two or three, weeks before the lnight-hawks are seen. Last summer a whip-poor-w who fell victim to the overhead telephone wires was found to have eaten two mature Colorado bee | ties. There are few birds that do not reject the Colorado beetle, and this strange choice of diet shows that the birds services may not be properly ap- lpreciated The whip-poor-wili feeds on the wing, catching insects in his won lderfully capacious beak or mouth.
 This natural adaptation for taking in
 sects during flight does not reveal itself
 until a dead specimen is examined, and then the opening of the short beak dis
 closes a cavity so wide and deep that
 the bird seems to be falling in two. The nest shows great simplicity in do-
 nestle habits. It is always on the
 ground, and ts location may sometimes
 be revealed by the silent rise of the
 startled parent. Two eggs, quite large
 for so light and slender a bird, lie un-
 protected on the ground, the happy
 manifestation of a disregard of danger.
 But it is the familiar song that wins
 this visitor a favored place in the
 crowding life of early summer, when, l ;yona+ +ierf fo,. fhe close of the lengthen-
 ing evening, he voices the spirit of the
 reluctant night in a clear, ecstatic

"WH1P-PooR-W1LIA. :.

This is the welcome call that bids su-
 burban residents neglect their lamps
 and come out into the slowly deepening
 shadows to listen. The little tree toads
 have already organized their shrill cho-
 rus, and their big cousins in the swamps
 and ponds are swelling the volume of nocturnal sound with high, clear trem-
 olo and croaking bass. But the call of
 the whip-poor-w is an irresistible ap-
 peal. It commands to silence, and an intense attention for answering sounds.
 This announcement of summer is need led to make the lengthening evenings complete. It is a part of the unfolding
 of the year. The whip-poor-will is not often seen, for he hides near the ground lin the suburban woods through the day, his uniformly dark and dull colors making him almost invisible If dis Iturbed he darts off in wildly irregular, zig-zag course into the deepest shades of the woods, the swift Tapping of his Hong wings strangely noiseless, in spite of his intrepid haste and alarm The sudden silent flight is more startling than the loud rush of a bittern. As evening advances he comes forth in
 pursuit of insect food, darting swiftly lhither and thither, skirting the woods and thickets that border some unfre- uuented field or meadow. Then he
 sounds the sharp, energetic notes that usher in the summer and complete the mingling tones of advancing evening. Soon he becomes too absorbed for song 1 in the pursuit of his prey. All night he darts about silently reveling in feast But when the sky lights with the com l. ing morning he brightly responds with ] a familiar call before retiring for the drawsy sleep of day.
 In his secluded habits the whip-poor- will presents marked contrast to his nocturnal cousin, the night-hawk courting the hustle and glare of the city. circling and darting high overhead
 against the yet luminous sky, or throw ling great. f1eeting shadows from the electric light, and always uttering his nasal, buzzing whistle. The large white blotches on the night-hawk's wings are obviously distinguishing
 marks. Yet in spite of their free dis play, he often gets credit for the song

RENTING CORNERS IN RUSSIAN
 FACTORIES.

When | first passed through the fac- tory district of St. Petersburg, my eye was attracted by numerous signs an nouncing corners to let. What does that nlean?'' I asked my guide. "A workman hires a corner of a room" he answered, which he gets for three dol lars per month" When arrived at a factory near by, asked the manager about this point. "A whole room is too expensive for a factory hand" he re-
 piled. ''The room is, partitioned off by curtains into four sections. and each corner is rented. You can understand that the ventilation is terrible, and that the presence of four families in one room, where everything can be heard land sometimes seen. is degrading. Mo rality, in consequence, is very low There are. also cellars occupied by worlnnen, and in times of flood in the Neva, three boonns of a signal gun warn them to nove.'' Personal inspection on tour of investigation of Russian in dustrial conditions which have made for the Worlds Work, in time of peace as we'll as in war time, verified these observations. This condition exists not only in St. Petersburg, but also in oth-
 CT parts of Russia.-World' Work.
