The Chipmunk's Winter Home.

Few of our wild creatures make
greater preparation for winter than
does the chipmunk. which at other
sea sons is so frequently seen in the
vicinity of stone heaps and old stone
walls. First he makes a long. narrow,
winding tunnel in the earth. and from
this he runs out several galleries.
which are to serve as store rooms.
Then he begins to lay in Il supply Of
food which is to last him until spring.
In each cheek he has a pouch. with
an opening on the inside of the mouth,
and these he uses as market BASKETS
to carry his provisions. At different
sea sons he stuffs them full of seed,
wheat, buckwheat. apple-pilS and
nuts Of various kinds. all of which he
conveys to his underground home. He
begins this work in the summer. and
carries it on until cold weather. when
he says good-by to the outside world.
blocks up the entrance to his tunnel,
and retires to his winter quarters.
where he probably sleeps a large part
of the time. getting up now and then
to take a meal in his well-Stocked
granaries. He usually stores away far
more food than he can possibly use be-
fore spring.-Woman' Home Compan-

SEPARATOR FOR ASHES.

1t ID a well-known fact that Amer.
leans as nation are very wasteful,
and that economy Is not practiced
where 1t very easily and advantage
ously could be. This is true not on Y
of the rich. but of all classes. and a
good illustration is the waste that is
apparent everywhere i'm the burning
of coal. Look at the ash boxes on ash
day, and notice how few people sift
their ashes. Not one ont of every
ten. A glance will suffice to show that
nearly One-half Of what are called
ashes really contain a considerable
amount Of good coal. If the ash
sitter shown in the illustration were
used. there would not be this waste.

the plate is the crusher bar, while
projecting downward from the cover
are a number of fingers. which sift
the ashes when they are put upon

pieces to fall through. The bigger

moved. and after allowing the con-

crusher bar breaks up the cindcrs into

good coal, being harder. is not dis
