WHY Hen Turns Eaas over.

"In the country last summer" said
young city man, Il saw a setting
hen rise YEARLY from her eggs one af-
ternoon and turn them over, one by
one. Then she resumed her seat upon
them.
"'What made the hen do that? l
said to the milkmaid beside me.
Bless you, sir, all setting hens do
so. They do so every day, said the
milkmaid. Every afternoon at about
this time they turn their eggs. Thus
the eggs get the same treatment all
around. One part isn't overwarmed
and another part overchilled. The
temperature inside is kept uniform.
'If hens didn't turn their eggs
every day some of the eggs would
never hatch. while out of others NAL
formed chickens, monstrosities would
come"

nothing less than 81, 500 would buy
him and he was not particular about
disposing of him for that price.
Regent is probably the most valua-
BILE bird under feathers. He weighl

Victor, the sire of Regent, was sole

There is a crab which lives on the
cocoanut. What a curious thing for
a crab to eatl People used to say
that the crab climbed the tree to get
the nuts. But this is not believed to
be true.
The crab eats the nuts that have
fallen to the ground. He has a pair
of strong pincers at the end of his
front claws. When he has found a
nut to his mind he begins to tear away
the husk, fiber by fiber.
And he hammers on the three weak
places in the shell, which are called
the eyes of the nut. He soon hammers
a hole right through them.
He has another pair of pincers In
his hinder claws. These are not Sc

barium. The latter has no effect, it

A Useful Hint.

Coal that is kept in dry and airy
place will burn much longer than that
which is kept in a close cellar with
no ventilation. When coal is kept in
an airless place it gets rid Of its gas
and the absence Of this renders it less
powerful and more wasteful when
burned.
