AT THE BIRDS HOSPITAL.

IN the matter OF sanitar1ums, the birds
are as lucky and stylish as the cats and
Idogs and in large cities rich birds have
their own private hospitals and boarding
houses.
In these places to which birds are sent
when they are i'll there are many large,
airy, sunny rooms filled with bird cages
hanging from the ceiling and walls. There
Is a competent bird doctor. nurses glass
operating table and bathtubs. modern ap-
planes. Instruments. bandages and every
thing ant!septic. The most delicate oper
atoms are performed on the birds slender
legs and wings. When broken or dislocated
they are carefully bandaged and put in
splints Colds, hoarseness and all tho
other diseases Of the throat are successful
ly cured. In some cages little birds with
bandaged limbs are seen lying on soft beds
Of cotton. The sick ones with dropping
heads nope In a corner.
Some little birds are not clean. They
must be taught. and even forced. every
day to take a bath. and are often scrubbed
with little brush. This. too, Is done at
the hospitals.
Most canary birds sing sweetly. still
others must be taught to initiate the good
singers by putting them In room to-
gether for several hours day. At the
birds boarding house tho singing instruc-
ton Is most successful. and offers as a
special attraction a daily free concert from
sunrise to sunset.
At times the musical programme Is not
very choice. especially. when the canaries.
parrots and maGpies all wish to sing talk
and chatter at the same time. All kinds
Of birds that can either sing or talk are
admitted a. boarders. Tho owners often

A CALAMITY IN SQUIRRELVILLE.

Frlsk Frolc. Fluff and Chatterbox were
seated at dinner with their parents, Father
Squirrel remarked, "a heard a curious
sound in the forest to-day"
what did it sound like" cried the lit
lie squirrels all together.
Il cannot say" said their father. 1T
beat the air and rang In my cars. Then
came a splinterlng sound. followed by
crash that shook the woods"
do you suppose some new animal has
come to our woods?" said Mother Bright
Eyes, anXiously. 1T must be an immense
beast"
This made a great impression upon the
children and they agreed privately to find
out the cause Of this strange sound
Early next morning before tho rest of
tho Bright Eyes family were astir, four
little gray shadows stole through the
woods. Once out Of sight of their own
tree they frolicked Joyously, leaping from
branch to branch and chattering saucily.
Suddenly upon the stiffness fell a clear
sharp sound, the ringing stroke of the ak!
The little squirrels plucked each others
fur In fear.
Frollc, the boldest, urged tho others on
Presently they came to a clearing. Uttered
with stumps and fallen trees. There were
the woodmen, great. brawny armed fell
lows, each swinging his axe. The chips
OF wood flew as they rained stroke after
stroke on a tall hemlock. Suddenly the
woodmen jumped back, the tree trembled.
paused a moment. then splintering and
grooming, crashed to the ground.
The squirrels. who never before had seen
a man, shivered with terror. Their little
hearts hammered against their ribs. and
their eyes filmed over with distress. 1t
was a dreadful sight. a hemlock was TO
them home. Indeed, their parents had
lived in one when they first began house
keeping With one accord they turned
and fled.
The account OF their adventure did not
lessen their parents anxiety.
The next morning Frolic. who went out
to play before breakfast, was late in re-
turning The family seated themselves at
The table without him. Suddenly muf-
fed sound smote their ears, the dreaded
stroke Of the axe, and this time 1t was
their own tree! The poor little squirrels
sat frozen with terror. Not one moved
"A whisker. Then the table lurched for
ward, sending the acorn cups and plates
spinning across the room, the chairs
tipped over, and the squirrels found
themselves lying. bruised and beaten,
under piles of their own broken furniture.
They were deafened by great noise and
half frightened to death. 1t was totally
dark and the air was fun OF dust. The tree
had fallen.
When the squirrels dared at last to stir.

A NEW IDEA FOR CHRISTMAS FUN.
How to Arrange Christmas Wigwam.

" UNIT cfARGARET.S idea OF having a
[ Christmas wigwa m instead Of a Christ
Smas tree proved very great sue
cess. as we'll as decided novelty.
Three tall clothes poles were brought In
from the yard and tied at the top to form
a huge tripod. which was set in one cor
ner of the room. Over this tripod sheets
were smoothly draped; tackled lightly
by pins to the sheets. completely covering
them, was white sheet wadding, separated
30 that the fuzzy" side was out. This
wadding was very thickly sprinkled with
diamond dust, 80 that 1t sparkled in the
gas light like snow in the sunshine. Pro-
1ecting from the top OF the wigwam was a
small top Of pine tree.
The flaps OF the wigwam were turned
back. and faced with the diamond busted
wadding. making q ~" shaped entrance.
Directly above the open flaps was an OBJ
long piece OF Bristol board. upon which
was painted In red lettering the following
lines from "Hiawatha" changed the
pine trees into wigwams.' The whole
was surrounded by bordering OF holly
leaves and berries. So far the effect is
very beautiful when the room is brilliant
ly lighted. Now for the Indian Santa
Claus who dwells In this wonderful wig
wan. Cousin Tom. dark. tall. 1.-the and
straight as an arrow. made an ideal one.
Aunt Margaret sacrificed a small turkey
feather buster for the Indian head dress.
which was very easily contrved. Red
and white crayons were used for making
the stripes on his face. A single bed
blanket Of deep red was his drapery, and
a pair OF much ornamented slippers
adorned his feet: brown overalls with a
deep fringe OF tags. or strips of red and
blue cloth, sewed down each outside seam,
made up quite an effective costume. The
pack" OF this truly American Santa Claus
was large hamper, covered with white
muslin and diamond busted wadding and

yond a few bruises, they started to look

1--WE must get ou. OF this" said Father
Squirrel They made their way cautiously
to the door leading through tho knothoe
to the open air. Alas! 1t was closed The
tree had fallen so that the knothole was
on tho under side. pressed close to the
ground. thus cutting Off tho only means
OF escape for the squirrels. They were
prisoners in their own home.
There WAS but one thing to do-to tun-
mel away the earth from the knothole and
with claws and teeth win a way to tn,
daylight. They all took turns. but 1t was
wearisomc work. Fortunately. Mother
Bright Eyes found a few nuts which. with
the assistance Of Blunder. tho servan.
squirrel. she served In frugal portions to
the workers.
But what was happening In the mean
time to Frolic. who was playing outside
when the calamity occurred? He had
wandered further than usual into the wood
and had met little Sammy Squirrel cook
ing porridge in kettle hung on three
crossed sticks, with Jolly little blaze be-
meath. Little Sammy politely invited
Frolic to breakfast. and he gladly nc
cepted. They were Just emptying their
crash.
Both Frolic and Sammy bounded to the
spot, only to see their dear home tree
Lying with broken boughs on the ground.
They did not dare approach the woodmen.
but skrting around in the near tree tops
made out that the knot hole was on tn.
under side OF the tree. and the family were
OF course imprisoned in its trunk.
Frolic and Sammy knew at once what to
do. They ran through the forest, stopping
lat every tree dwelling. warning red and
gray squirrels, chpmunks. woodchucks,
sleepy owls and all the bird kind OF their
danger, and calling gathering Of the
woodland clans for the relief OF the Bright
Eyes family as soon as twilight should
fall
So. at star lighting. when all the wood
men had gone home to their cabins.
Father Bright Eyes, toiling YEARLY at the
heavy ground. heard an answering
scratch. scratch OF many claws from the
loutside.

On they went but not on the road. Oh,

across a meadow, up over a little hill
and past a beautiful palace of evergreen
trees shining with ice and snow. There a
halt was made, and the bundle Of cookies
was quickly eaten.
"Now that our provis ions are gone we've

Morgan.
