NO REST NIGHT OR DAY.

suit from Cuticura Remedies.

about the latter part of July my whole

my scalp itched all the time. Especially
at night, just as soon as / would get in

begin to itch and my finger nails would
keep it irritated, and it was not long be-
fore l could not rest night or day. A
friend asked me to try the Cuticura Rene

helped me wonderfully For about four

ION LONG-EARED owl
NOT so WIDELY DISTRIBUTED
AS CoMMONER SORT.
Found Only in Fir Woods-Dificult
to Locate Nests-Peculiariti of
Facial Expreesion-Won-
dcrfuk Eyes.

The long-eared owl, though common
III many parts, is not nearly so widely
| distributed as the two commoner sorts.
1t is more or less local, being only
| found in fir woods Where there are
| large spaces covered with fir forests
the lCng-eared Owl is generally abun-
dant, but where these are absent you
| may look for it in vain.
Instead of nesting in the holes Of
| trees, buildings or rocks, as do the
| tawny and barn owls, it prefers to use
| the old nest of a crow, ood-pigeon,
| heron or squirrel. and on this rough
platform the eggs are laid very early
! in the year, sometimes while snow
| lies thick on the ground. Very occas-
| lonally these birds have nested on the
ground, and in d contemporary there
lately appeared most interesting
| photograph of a long-eared owl sitting
| with her young ones on nest actual
! ly on the ground. l would have given
| something to have taken such pic
ture as that. They are always exceed
lngly close sitters, which makes it
very difficult to locate their nests, as
they refuse to leave them on the trunk
| or the tree being struck. Nothing less
than the nest itself being actually
struck by large stone will make
them move or leave their eggs. AS the
fir woods are always full of old nests,
it is impossible IN a days search to
climb to every one seen. Three of us
| once, in large wood inhabited by
these owls, climbed one day nearly so
| fir trees to no purpose, though in sew
eral cases we found the castings on
the ground.
All owls have The power of altering
completely the whole shape of their
face. BY muscular contraction the
feathers of the facial disc can be made
either round or triangular; the long
| cared and short-cared can besides de-
press or erect their "ears,'' and they
and the tawny owl are furnished with
mustache of wiIy hair-like feathers
OF tawny color, which can also be
erected or depressed at the will of the
bird, thus completely altering it's ap-
pearance. These peculiarities of facial
expression are very seldom done just
ice 10 by artists, and are too often ig-
nored altogether. But if photography
scores in this respect, it fails alto
eether in rendering the wonderful eyes
of the long-ear1d owl, the glorious
orange yellow iris being rendered by
the Photographic plate as black (the

orthochromatic plate even being USE
less in the exposure necessary for a
living bird), while the pupil, though it
appears black, has lot of dark blue
III it, and reflects so much light as to
come out white. The whole eye is
thus absolutely reversed in tone. It
should hardly be necessary to point
out that the so called ears are not
really ears, being merely ornamental
in nature, and are in no way connect
ed with the organs of hearing These
are exceedingly large and complicated,
occupying the whole side of the head.
and can be readily examined in a dead
specimen by lifting up the edge of the
facial disc, which is quite loose, and
covers the ear like a flap or shield.
The most richly marked and colored
long-eared owl | have ever seen was
i'll the geological gardens a short time
ago; the dark markings of this bird
were almost black, and the breast
feathers were ngly-contrasted
streaks of white, tawny, and black. Its
two companions were not nearly so
handsome. The young birds are very
dusky, especially about the face, and
like all owls have most voracious ap-
petites, which must tax the parents
energies to the utmost extent to keep
them satisfied While they are in the
nest, especially as they are dependent
upon the old birds for a considerable
time.
