Almost as ancient as the earth her
self was Eros, the personification OF
love. Hesiod relates that he was
among the first OF existing things and
that be assisted the earth in brincine
forth from chaos the earliest forms O.
life and beauty. Aristophanes and 9th
ers wrote of Er9s as the son Of night
Later poets sang of him as the son o.
Ares and Aphrodite and honored hiI1
as the sweet minded promoter OF hu-
man affections. They represented him
as fair faced bey winged and carry
ing bow with which to infict sweet
wounds upon those who came within
range. Nor has Eros ceased to exist
even in this practical age. for to this
day the poets sing Of this little winged
god as skillful and as pitiless as in the
days of old. The Rhilosophic myth OF
Eros and Psyche IS one or the most
beautiful % the ancient allegories.-

OLD BIRDS NESTS.
Many Feathered Creatures Use the
Same Ones Year After Year.

"That common expression for worth
lessness. 1T has no more value than
a last years birds nest" said bird
fancier sis often far from correct.
The ma jority OF our birds do leave
their nests after raising a brood. but
many do not. and their nests are used
through a succession of years. l have
known some birds TO use their nests
ten years IN succession, and so per-
sistent are they that many times the
female will return even after the nest
mas been robbed and the mate killed.
Among these users of perennial nests
are the wrens. some of the swallow
family. bluebirds, great crested fly
catchers. some of the owls. eagles,
chickadees and some woodpeckers.
"They repair to the nest each year
and often build il over. a little wren
has made its nest in hole in a tree in
my garden and has occupied il for the
last eight years. Each year IL has piled
on new stuff till the hole is almost fill
ed up. Some say that as soon as IL be-
comes crowded the birds will clean il
out | know of q bluebird's nest that
has been occupied for several years. 1t
~ the same female year after year, for
she has two black wing feathers aud
Is lame.
Birds that build in exposed situa-
tions, like hangbirds, always build
anew each season, and some others
build anew for every brood. Some new
er build. They either lay in the nests
of other birds or in the sand. The
eagle and the owl make a framework
of sticks and slight repairs are needed.
Many birds nests that you find have
never been used. For instance, the
marsh wren builds several with the
idea that in the case of disturbance
the male will attract attention to the
nests other than that in which the fe
male is brooding and so shield her from
enemies"

BUTCHERS ACTIVE;
WHAT'S THE REASON
This Is a Question That Is Up
permost in Mind Just
AT This Time.
HELD A MEETING SUNDAY.
1T is UNDERSTOOD THE DEAL
ERS ARE ABOUT READY TO
SHOW THE WHITE FLAG AND
MAKE TERMS OF PEACE.

Was the butchers meeting at the To-
cal Strengthening establishments Sun
day afternoon a meeting to discuss the
feasibility of the continuance of the
war which has been raging, or a meet
ing leading up to a declaration of
peace? is the question being discussed
at the present time. A large number
of butchers held a consultation at the
Strengthening houses on Liberty avenue
and, it is understood, went over the
different slaughtering establishments
to ascertain what should be done to
the houses, and discussed the question
as to whether or not they should COM
ply with the city's wishes in regard to
government inspection. The butch
ers, it is expected, will appear before
the city council tonight and again pre-
sent their claims against government
inspection, required by the recent ordi-
nance passed by council. DIR. Charles
S. Bond announced last week that he.
too, would appear before the city faith
ers In behalf of the enforcement of the
meat inspection ordinance. In case
the butchers have "a representative at
the meeting a forensical battle is ex-
pected Dr. Bond will ask the city
council to set date on which the meat
inspection ordinance shall become eff
fective.
From the butchers war camp comes
the story that supplies used so freely
in bombarding the city's right to gov
eminent inspection, are almost ex-
hausted and the meat men are ready
to hoist the sign of truce. enter the
camp of the army fighting for pure
meat, sign a peace treaty. declare the
war off. and accept the government in
spection. so much wanted. The bat
tie has been a long one and the battle
flag is much SCARED. and for this rea-
son the people of Richmond and vi
entity will welcome the earliest settle
ment possible.

WORK WEAkENS THE
KIDNEYS
Doan's Kidney Pills Have Done Great
Service for People Who Work
In Richmond.

Most Richmond people work every
day in some strained. unnatural posi-
tion-bending constantly over desk
riding on jolting wagons or cars
doing laborious house work; lifting,
reaching, or pulling, or trying the
back in hundred and one other ways.
All these strains tend to wear, weaken
and injure the kidneys until they fall
behind in their work of filtering the
poisons from the blood. Doan's Kid
ney Pills cure sick kidneys. put new
strength in bad backs. Richmond can
prove it.
Enoch Cromer, conductor on the
Penna. r. r., living at 221 North Nine
teenth street, Richmond, Ind. saws:
"Railroading is said to be hard on the
kidneys and the continued jar and Jolt
of riding on trains got me in a bad
condition. My kidneys became weak
and there was inflammation of the
bladder Many nights there would be
three or four passages of the secre-
tons before l could get to sleep. and
this loss of rest made me weak. de-
pressed and in no condition for work

Gum arabic. which forms one of the

which the trees yield their sap runs
from December 70 May. Prior to gath
ering the crop the natives prepare the
trees by slightly cutting the bark IL
numerous places. The sap then "a
udes, solidifes in the shape of large
and small Jumps and is afterward gath

done before the rainy season coni

There are two main classes of gum
