Some Very Greedy Birds That Are
Tremendous Feeders.

Some Very Greedy Birds That Are
-. s+ Tremendous Feeders.
Despite the fact that ''the appetite
Of bird" has become common phrase
for light eating, investigations show
that birds are tremendous feeders. The
diet of the average kestrel "a small Eu-
ropean hawk is calculated at 1000
mice a month, to say nothing OF insects
and worms. The barn owl is as vora-
cious as the kestrel. An investigator.
after caging one of these birds, gave it
seven mice one after the other. The
first six Immediately disappeared, each
with gobble and a gulp, and the owl
did its very best to treat the seventh
in like manner. Limitations of alb
dominal capacity, however, prevented.
and though the gobble came OF the
gulp did not, SO that for twenty. min
utes or so the tail of the seventh mouse
dangled from the corner OF the birds
beak. But in due course it swallowed
the body, and three hours later the
pangs of hunger reasserted themselves
and the owl ate four more mice.
Four pounds would be heavy weight
for a, heron. Yet one Of those birds,
which was trapped in England, dis
gorged two recently swallowed trout,
one Of which weighed two pounds and
the other one and half pounds. An
other captured had contrived to put
away three trout averaging three-quar-
tiers of pound apiece. although it was
only four months old, and another had
dined upon seven small trout, together
with mouse and thrush.
Among the greediest birds are wood
pigeons, which will continue to gu1p
down food until their crops are almost
at the bursting point From one OF
these birds, shot as it was returning
from raid in the fields, no fewer than
500 grains of wheat were taken. An
other had contrived to cram down no
fewer than 600 peas. A third was en-
deavoring to sustain nature with $50
beech nuts and fourth with sixty

OLD TIME DENTISTRY.

oueer In Harvard Dem
tai Schools Collection.
Like many other of the new" pro-
fessi0ns, dentistry Is q very old one.
It is known that 400 years before the
beginning. of the Christian era Egyp-:
tan dentists filled teeth with gold, but
no trace of their methods Of doing their
work has ever been. found. Aescula-
plus, the patron Of physicians, was the
first famous dentist in Roman history,
and the old Romans used a toothpick
very much like the little wooden one
that 10 made today. The Arabians
ages ago produced a dentifrice, but it
soon seemed to be-yery generally used.
The story Of dentistry is told In the
instruments it has employed. As they
are known today they had their be-
ginning in the sixteenth century, but
their evolution has been slow. In the
Harvard Dental school In Boston there
Is a collection of instruments used by
dentists in the first half of the last CEN
fury" One Of the formidable tools It
INCLUDES is what was called a. key,
doubtless VI from Its peculiar shape,
which was used for extracting teeth,
the process being to slowly and pain;
fully twist and prys the offending molar
out Of it's place. In order that no mis-.
take should be made the dentist began
operations. by hammering and prod
ding one tooth after another with a
sort Of bludgeon until he had satisfied
himself-not to mention the tortured
patient-th that he had found the most
sensitive one and therefore the most,
likely candidate for extraction. .;.,<. !.
The grandfathers Of the delicate steel:
tools that lie. IN rows on the modern
dentists table were small In number,
but large inSawfulness. There are: in
the Harvard collection chisels and NAL
let's, rude forceps for removing the
teeth, miniature crowbars used to re-,
pair cavities for: filling, files for sharp.
ening the cutting and grinding sur
faces of teeth and one particularly
horrid instrument, known as the pei
lean, with which teeth were Gifted. =
How rapidly and recently dentistry
has become 4 one Of the Important
sciences appears in the fact that in
the middle Of the last century black
smiths were doing their: best or worst
to relieve the victims OF the tooth
ache, while today institutions like the
Harvard Dental school attract stu
dents from all over the world. Be
sides, while 1t was sure torture to 90
to the dentist I'm the 50 called good
old days" such a visit now Is com
paratively comfortable SO far has the
profession gone in the direction of per:
forming q its operations without caus-
Ing pain. 81 .*-,z ..%s. !.
