VANIsHINc GAME BIRDS.
The Destruction Of Prairie Chickens
Il Greater Than the Re-
production.

The general prospects this season
for good prairie chicken shooting
of the keenly popular upland sports
with dog and gun-seem in the main
to be unfavorable. Undoubtedly there
are small areas here and there, mere
hooks in comparison to the whole vast
prairie habitat of the pinnated grouse.
which contain birds aplenty and which
will afford ample sport for the favored
few who have access to them; but for
the hundreds Of chicken shooters who
take their chances without prelimi-
nary investigation, much failure aad
disapp ointment are in store, says For
est and Stream.
The reports from many Of the pral-
RE districts where the pinnated grouse
in times past were in abundance, or at
least plentiful enough to afford good
sport, indicate an unusual scarcity.
, Undoubtedly the destruction of the
pinnated grouse is greater than lis
production. The decrease in its num-
bers seems to be steadily progressive
with the passing years The area OF
the habitat of species also is gradually
diminishing, though this is not mani
tested by the entire and sudden exter-
mination Of the chickens in a certain
section, nor their sudden abandonment
of It.
The change from abundance to
dearth comes about gradually. Some
sections In former years which afford.
ed sport for weeks in later years az
ford sport for days only. From abun-
dance the supply becomes meager Oft
entimes the changes from plenty to
poverty, the lamentable results Of cx-
termination or abandoned habitat, are
not noticed by the sportsman till ne Is
confronted with the fact when diligent
seeking for sport afield with dog and
gun ends in failure.
The enormous decrease In the NUM-
bers and the decreasing habitat of the
prairie chicken are not realized by the
younger sportsmen of the present time.
Nor do the older sportsmen realize It
by any comparisons Of more recent
years. A comparison Of present condi-
lions concerning chicken shooting
with those which obtained Is or 20
years ago will bring into conspicuous
relief the progressive decrease, which
has resulted in the scarcity OF the
present.
Twenty years ago the habitat Of the
prairie chicken, beginning in weste n

ANENr SCHOOL CLOTHES.
Parents Should Realize Sensitive
Child Feels Keenly If It's Dress
l. Not Right.

In these days, when the school gar
ments resemble party costumes more
than anything else, and the one idea
with parents seems to be that "oul
children" must be dressed as well as,
If not better than, those Of our as.
sociates, the demands upon the fam
lily purse and the strength Of the
mother seem unlimited. Children are
very sensitive about their clothes, and
feel keenly any adverse comparisons,
and 30 long as the present customs
prevail, care must be taken to have
them as presentable az possible. The
first consideration should bs comfort,
hygienic weight and warmth; after
that, material, becomingness Of color
and stylishness of fit and make. The
demand for school dress Is no longer
simply to be neat, clean and whole,
but the young people must be as much
like the fashion plate as are their eld-
eFs. Ii the little one is sent out among
It's mates simply neat and clean, 1t is
sometimes made to see that there Ia
something lacking.
OF course, this should not be; but
1t certainly is; and so long as silly
mothers will allow 1t, the results must
be borne. But many sweet-man-
nered, sunny-faced child is changed
into an ugly-tempered, ugly-behaved
and altogether unlovely character by
being made to feel that 1t is poorly
dressed and not up to the standard OF
dress demanded by custom. 1t would
perhaps be better If there were re-
strictlons imposed and limitations en-
forced, thus bringing, so far as dress
IS concerned, the children Of varying
fortunes to a more uniform level. IL
is not always the best equipped or fin
est dressed child that is the most earn
est scholar, yet many young boys and
girls become disguised with school
very early in life because OF being
made to feel the distinctions Of dress,
and from having the cold shoulder
turned on them, no matter how high
their grade of scholarship, because OF
plain or poor clothes. To these, COM
pulsory attendance at school Is the
cruelest thing their young years have
to bear. because it is a matter In which
they are in no wise to blame, yet are
helpless to change.-The Commoner.

VALUE OF STEADY WORK.
One Of the Best Things Learned at
School Is the Power for Per-
sistent Effort.

Writing in Good Housekeeping on
boarding schools for girls, Clara Lena
Bostwick says: School gives another
invaluable discipline, that of steady,
uninterrupted work. OF course, girls
are sent away to school for q variety
of things-for fun, to get into society,
to be finished" There ara schools
that give them what they desire, and
nothing else; and their desires fire.
quently do not include hard study.
But where parents place their daugh-
ter In school to got tho best that the
new experience can give her, by no
means the least of the good and the
pleasure that she hnds comes from
the steady, Systematic work, with its
power of concentration and delight in
achievement and conquest OF diff
Guilty. This 1t is hard to secure In
most homes, even with the best Of In
tentions on the part Of both mothers
and daughters.
Then, the steady routine Of school
life, which makes this uninterrupted
work possible, makes 1t also less bur-
densome. When we have to do a
thing at q regular time, we do 1t, and
that is the end OF 1t. When 1t Is left
to our discretion. we often spend half
the time deciding when to do 1t, and
the other half in worrying because 1t
is not done. The girl at school Is
spared this strain. Her study hours
are fixed for her, she has just so much
time in which to accomplish her work.
Then she is free, and there is no ques-
ton in her mind whether she ought to
study more.

HINTS TO HOUSEWIFE.

Bayberry candles end a ready mar

command so cents pair, says Harper's
Bazaar. The berries should be pound
cd and boiled, and then the wax may
be skinned OF and made into candles.
These are transparent green, and
give of a delicious fragrance when
burning.
An ordinary headache may generally
be cured by applying water as hot as
1t can be borne to the feet and back
Of the neck.
Vanished paint can be kept looking
as bright as though freshly done by
soaking In water some time a bag
filed with flaxseed, and then using it
az a cloth to clean the paint
Black kid gloves generally wear out
at the finger tips. and then assume
rusty brown tint. which is anything
but pleasing, although the other part
of the glove may be perfectly good.
When this happens take little black
ink, mix it with a small quantity of
olive oil, and apply it to the finger
tips. Leave it until dry, and tho
gloves will be very much improved in
appearance.
Fly marks and general griminess
may be removed from gliding by dip
ping small piece of cotton in gin,
and with it rubbing gently over the
soiled parts The cotton wool should
be squeezed before being applied 20
the gliding, for this must not be made
really wet, and damp on it should be
dried by the fire as soon as the marks
have been removed.
Wall paper that has become bruised
or torn off in small patches and can
not be matched may be repaired with
ordinary children's paints. Nix the
colors till you get as nearly as POS

touch up the broken places. and at
the distance of a foot or two the dis
will be quite unnoticed.

Cleaning feathers.

/ Requests come from time to time for
directions about washing feathers ia
pillows. The usual method Of house
cleaning is to put the feathers in their
case right into soapsuds, squeezing AMI
dousing them thoroughly to permit
the feathers to become well soaked
and cleaned. Then, after a thorough
rinsing, hang the pillow in a shady,
but windy, spot The sun must not
be allowed to strike 1t, or the feathers
will not dry properly A strong
breeze, however, is essential. II IS
generally two or three days before The
pillow Is ready for use, and even then
the result is not always satisfactory,
as the feathers, in spite OF constant
kneading, will knot or remain sticky
unless great care il exercised in tho
rinsing and subsequent drying. and on
this account 1t is advisable TO send the
feathers % be steamed at reliable es
Establishment, rather than attempt to
clean them at home.

ABOUT FOOD POISONING.
Absolute Cleanliness in Handling OF
Foods Essential Turn Out
Canned Goods on Opening.

There are many ways in which food
stuffs may give rise to more or less
serious disturbances of health. Official
examinations are constantly revealing
how widespread is the practice Of add
ing preservatives or adulterants to
viands of all sorts, and though 1t must
be admitted that in many instances
these substances are by their nature or
the smallness of the quantities used
comparatively harmless. still in the
majority Of cases the conditions are
such as to render their presence sx-
tremely undesirable.
But entirely apart from these, severe
illness not infreQuently follows the use
of certain common foods. In animal
foods, extremely poisonous principles
called ptomains easily appear az the
result OF bacterial activity, and may
cause wholesale illness.
Dairy products are especially prone
to such changes, and IL not properly
cared for may develop tyrotoxicon, or
cheese poison, a substance chat Ia not
rare in fee cream, while botulism is q
serious form Of ptomain poisoning. fol
lowing the eating of tainted meat or
sausage.
Fish and shellfish yield similar prod
ucts, a specially vicious poison named
mytilotonn having been isolated from
muscles, and canned things are also
often offenders in this way.
The symptoms produced by these
substances may be extremely severe,
and comprise intense gastric pain,
vomiting, intestinal disturbances. burn
ing thirst, construction OF the throat,
and oftentimes disturbance of sight,
such as hazy and double vision. In
marked eases there is great prostratien
and weakness of the heart, which may
last for weeks.
The practical lesson to be drawn from
q consideration Of these possibilities is
the necessity for scrupulous care in
the handling of all things intended for
table use. All perishable foods must
be consumed as quickly as possible,
and must never be left out Of the ice
