nesting grounds Besides, the nesting
grounds are usually all but inaccessible, to
say nothing of their being very difficult to
locate, in the first place. All this Is just
the opposite of the conditions met with in
wild animal hunting. Most of the wild ami
mails for which there is a steady market
are limited to certain restricted areas In
these regions the animals have favored
haunts, and all a wild animal collector has
20 do TO capture the specimens desired is to
MT out an expedition and send il into the
heart of the lion. tiger or elephant-inhab-
tied jUrgles, as the case may be.
so ii comes about that the Young of
birds are captured only accidentally or In
cidentally, and infrequently and in small
batCEes. They are sold for little or nothing
by the captoTs to wild animal dealers, who
are not particularly anxious to handle them,
but do so largely as a matter of accommo-
dation for the geological garden people with
whom they do business. When batch of
birds arrives, a miserable half dozen or so
among a shipload of lions, elephants, tigers,
tapirs, CRATES, snakes. zebras and what
not, the dealer sometimes takes the trouble
to let a fellow know that he has received
such and such birds, but more often 1 have
to keep haunting his store to find out what
he has.
Because the average wild animal dealer
seems to have more or less contempt for
everything with wings. the birds are
bought at ridiculously low figures. consid-
ering the small number which reach mar
ket. Ten dollars IS a good price for an
American white pelican, 80 more for
brown one, so for flamngo. so or SIS for
an eagle, and from one hundred to twice
that number dollars for an ostrich or a
casSowary.
THE only really high-priced bird in the
world today is the bird OF paradise. For
It's specimen of this rare bird the London
Zoo" is said TO have paid $500. like
sum would almost purchase shpload Of
European song birds at wholesale prices.
Orders Filled Slowly.
Owing to the reasons l have already
places an order for any bird, matter
how much he may long for it. He depends
on pure luck TO get 1t, some day. some time.
When he does give an order he is invaria-
bly, compelled to walt an Internationally
long time to get It filed, and not infre-
quently he is brought to realize. after years
of patient waiting and hoping, that the
order in all human probability, will never
be filled.
Five years ago, when I was consumed
with the desire to secure a California con-
dor, / broke my usual practice and sent an
order for one to man WHO lives in the
mountains of the southern part of the state.
where is the habitat of this, the rarest and
largest of North American birds of prey.

The Silent Drums In France.

FROM the London Chronicle
The French minister of war proposes to
abolish the drum. This was done by one OF
his predecessors quarter of a century
ago, but an incident at a theater compelled
him to cancel the order. The curtain went
up on. one of those pieces Of fun the
French call "revues," and disclosed a
scene described as the bowels of the
earth. Enter several men in dark military
cloaks, carrying mysterious packages and
generally COMFORTING themselves like con-
spirators. The packages are opened, and
there emerge-drums! The conspirators
are drummers. who have descended into
the bowels of the earth to enjoy a gentle
tattoo on their beloved but forbidden in
struments When the drums broke into a
joyous roll, as of captives released. there
was peal of laughter from the audience
and everybody knew the drum was saved.
That Is how they correct the war Office IN
France. Perhaps NJ. Berteaux Will have
better luck.

Written Tor The Star
As soon as the buffalo calves which MAD
received from Corbin Park were reasonably
tame. and showed that they were likely 10
Ii,a and thrive on cows milk. two strong
little leather halters were ordered ana the
work OF breaking the young bulls was pc

when I told them what l was going TO 40
and prophesied that there would be run
enough 10 go around long before those bur
falo calves were broke"
The arst thing to be done was to adjust
the haIters. with view to hal;er-breakinS
the sturdy little beasts. Now, buffalo calves

they were not disposed TO allow me 20 ap-
proach while had one of these dangerous
looking articles In my hand. however
when the animals were hungry, and taxing
their milk they would allow one u take
many more liberties with them 'han Nhty

OF them taste his milk, | pushed the bottie
through the nose strap OF a halter and heic
Ii out 10 him again. He was suspicious AZ
first. but hunger got the better OF hl<n' ana
he took the nipple in his mouth.
Getting Acquainted With the Halter.
AS he sucked away, 1 gradually drew the
bottle back through the nose-strap. ana as
gradually his muzzle followed II until at
last. my editor friend who was with me
had nothing to do but buckle the other
strap about the neck and the deed was
done. AS soon as the calf had finished the
milk he noticed strange feeling about his
head. and he galloped away like mad. 10

he jumped in the air and shook his head
violently. but very soon he became used TO
the new sensation and went to grazing as
usual.
The other bull acted much In the same
way. and ! left the halters on them both,
that they might become thoroughly used to
them before we carried the experiment any
further.
In the meantime, had secured a strong
rope. with snap at the end, and In this
rope l made hard knots about eighteen
inches apart. Next morning. while one OF
the calves was taking his milk, the rope
was snapped on TO the halter and the fun
began. First Of all he bottled. but found

Training the Calves to the Yoke.

The next time took them out together
we passed the halter-rope to one through
the halter-ring of the other, and after they
had been tangled up a few times they went
very well indeed, walking and trotting
along side by side for three miles on the
road. On meeting a wagon or other object
which was new to them they would steer
as wide of it as they possibly could, even
going over the wall If l would let them.
When they had been out together half
dozen times We procured yoke, and.
after a scrimmage lasting perhaps fifteen
minutes, we succeeded in yoking the two
together. The halters were on their heads
and a rope was attached to each halter. AS
soon as the yoke was fairly adjusted we
let go their heads. and away they went to
the ends of the ropes. One of them turned
a somersault. the bows of the yoke broke
off close to the beam, and the calves were
apart. However we soon got another yoke
and next time nothing happened to prevent
the calves from showing US exactly what
they were made of.

the moment we attempted to lead them
they rushed away. got their feet over the
wooden bar, and tied themselves in such
knot that we were tired when we finally got
them apart again. The bar afterward

himself brought up short, then he turned
about and bolted in the opposite direction.
Vainly l tried to lead him about the inclo-
sure. He kneeled down. lay down, threw
himself down and jumped into the air, and
when he found that none of these antics
freed him from the rope. he braced all four
feet as firmly he could, and allowed me
to attempt to pull him. And | pulled stead

A Tug-of-War.
By and by my young friend got tired Of
having his neck stretched and leaped for
ward with vigor. AS he came down he
braced his feet again and waited. Again
pulled and again and again, until l was
tired and the calf was painting. Then
let him go. and gave the other fellow
lesson After that for several days l had
a tug-of-war with one the other of the
calves always inside the Enclosure. One
morning l decided TO take one of them
for a walk the road. He refused to fol-
low me- and l was obliged to drag him
a few feet at time for about half a mile.
The moment we turned round, however.
and headed for home, he showed strong
desire TO return. and pulled me almost as
hard as | had been Obliged to pull him.
After this / took one of them out on the
road every day, and every day there was
tussle to get them away and another TO
prevent them from getting back TOO fast.
| think they would have gone away more
quietly had II not Deen LOT the TACT THAT

grunts TO the departing one. and he would
Immediately look back and struggle to get
away and join them.
AS the calves grew heavier every day
IL became more and more difficult to pull
them along when they braced their hoofs
in the ground l got over the dlfhculty 70
q large extent by having another man walk
behind me on the road whereupon the calf
which was being led trotted by my SIDE
with seldom a show of resistance. But as
soon as we turned he seemed to know that
he was going back to his companions. and
IL REQUIRED plenty of muscle to prevent
runaway.
A Chase Down the Road.
Once when about mile from home with
| one of the calves the halter slipped off his
| nose. and he was held only by the strap
| around his neck. 1t took about second
| for him to find out that something was
| wrong. and he set off down the road, using
Every ounce of strength he possessed, and
believing with all his might. l was

way. for knew that IL he ceased pulling
straight ahead the neck strap would come
over his head and he would be free. Luck

/ After each calf had learned = go pretty

beneficial to the system? If so, will
1t not benefit every organ of the sys-
tenn to purify the blood, and elimi-
nate the large amount of poison that
collects in the system? Is not regulat
ing the bowels beneficial to the entire
system, and absolutely necessary to
the proper condition of health? If so,
why should it not be just as necessary
to open up the seven million pores in
tho skin, which is the sewerage of the
entire system, letting off the deadly
poison which thousands of people are
carrying about in their bodies perfect
ignorant of their condition. You can
easily see this process of renovation
can not help but benefit every part of
the human machinery.
