From Miss Gordon TO Hamilton DAYTON:
Dear Mr.. DaytOn-Your letter is catty enough to

pertinent enough to have been penned by schoolboy
Really should not notice it at all regret extremely
that you should have the bad refer in such
an undigniied way to Mr.. Briggs, whom l regard
as one of my dearest friends.
You are nice boy usually, and it is the privilege
of nice boys to behave badly at times so badly that
one regrets that they have outgrown the days of
the maternal slipper. Maybe l somewhat in
considerate when last met; it is difficult at
times to realize that you grown up.
| think you had better run away somewhere to
your dashing widow perhaps, and try and be good.
Maybe shall be glad to see you again sometime.

who has so much money that it must make him tired

he Is a fine old duffer for his age.

that the only way | win Josephine Gordon
did YOU ever hear of her-is by strategy for honest
conventional old-fashioned love-making doesn't go
IN this town any more. And l want you help me.
Fate has placed a winning hand in my possession;
for Miss Gordon IS actually jealous, and of you. Isn't
it gorgeous joke? l mighty glad you
good-looking and my sister, but she only knows of
you a beautiful young widow, and you know how
girls regard young widows

devoted you when you fascinating the
dangerous Briggs, for you the only woman in the

BIRDS LIKE CAPTIVITY.
Many Wild Ones ON Being Tanned
Prefer Cages to the Open.
by C. William Beebe Curator Of OrnithoIogy, New
York Geological Society.

Now that the new birdhouse in the New
York Geological Park is open to the public and
is being rapidly filed with native and foreign
feathered creatures. the visitors ask many ques-
tiOns to where the birds come from, what
they cost, and inquiries of q similar nature.
Any one who attempts to gather large num-
Der of living birds finds before him problem
very different from that of the animal collector.
The latter knows that he may send to Hagen
beck or some other of the great dealers in ami
mails and order pair of lions for $1,000, or a
zebra for about $500, and in due season the ami
mails will be safely delivered. Now. while this
is the case with such birds as ostriches. casso-
varies and emus. yet. I'm the majority of in

Grinding his life away

For those to the purple born
Under relentless will
Held to a serfdom STILL

OF cropping hands that already clasp
The pillars that uphold
The fabric, vast and old,
That bears aloft great Russia's throne
