with only limited measure of success.
This is no doubt due to the fact that Indian
opinion is remarkably tolerant toward
sturdy beggars. especially If they wear the
guise of religion. But there is reason to be-
lieve that wholesome change is coming over
the public sentiment in this as in so many
other matters. There were about five mil
lion of beggars in the country at the time
of the last census, and nearly one-fifth of
the number was classed as religious mendi-
cants. The number. large as It is. repre-

The somewhat startling statement has
been made that the blue eyed golden haired
and light -complexloned Variety Of the hui
man race is in thetcoursshef extinction and
that within a few mDre generations, blondes
are likely to become so rare in the world
population that they may be looked upon
as curiosities, somewifatfas albinos are to-

chosen by artists and Poets to represent
their noblest conceptions of human beauty
that no one can regard even the bare sus-

Moreover some of the worlI's greatest

its admirers have sometimes gone so far as
to aver that light compleyions, ana in par

This is undoubtedly an sextreme and I'M

history shows an extraordinary number of
men and women of the first rank in all

FRIENDLY QUAILs.
How Farmer Glover Fed Flock Day
After Day for Six Weeks. ,-
From ST. Nicholas,

FROM ST. NlcnOiaS
One cold morning Farmer Glover stood iii
the rear of the barn. fork in hand. looking
out over the fields. Snowstorm had follow
ed snowstorm until the stone walls were
SO covered that the farm seemed like a
great field with here and there small
grove to break the monotony. The cattle
had been fed and each animal was MUNICH
ing contentedly at its pile of hay in the
sunshine, scattering chaff over the snowy
barnyard.
Suddenly, from the light woods near the
barn. came a startled "Bob-white!' I'M
mediately there was an answering call from
the woods across the fields, and then an
other and another. and soon? a flock Of
about twenty quail alighted cautiously on
the ground, two or three rods from where
Mr.. Glover stood, and began picking up the
seeds from the hay which the cattle had
strewn over the snow. They scratched
about like flock of hens, and apparently
quite as much at home, and chippered away
while they worked, after the fashion of tree
sparrows in the weeds down by the brook.
Farmer Glover was careful not to frighten
his woodland guests, and the next morning
he put out wheat for them and threw
handfuls of chaff in the hay which the cat
tie had left. The flock returned again and
again, until feeding the, qlails has become
as much part of the days routine as
looking after the hens and turkeys. One
cold morning after they had eaten, the
kind-hearted farmer found the whole flock
huddled together under the hay, apparently
enjoying the warmth. Strange to say. they
never come for their food when it SHOWS or
rains. When they have breakfasted. unless
frightened, they usually walk away to
their favorite haunts in the grove across
the fields. They never alight on the trees.
but occasionally perch on the rail fence.
Once or twice. when no one was in sight.
they came near the house.
For six weeks the quails have enjoyed
Farmer Glover's bounty. When spring
opens their ind-hearted protector will meet
them only in the fields and woods; but
whenever bob-white'S musical call comes
over the summer meadows it will bring
pleasant memories of those winter break
fasts in the snowy barnyard.
