HOME OF THE HUMMING BIRD.

The home of the humming bird is
creations of all bird architecture. 1t
is tiny, delicate cup, made of the soft
est plant down, saddled upon some
rather slender branch. The saliva OF
the birds is used to compact and secure
the material, and likewise to coat the
exterior with the y-green hchens so
generally found upon trees. This makes
it so assimilate with the surroundings
that it is a very difficult object to dis
cover. And thereby hangs tale. A
gentleman had told me that, if | would
call upon him, he would show me an
occupied nest of a humming bird in
his orchard. When / came, he was out
of town. but l thought I would see if
| could not find the nest myself. So
| made inspection from tree to tree,
and presently the female hummer be-
gan to fly about me anxiously. We
played a game of hot and cold until it
became evident that the nest must be
in a certain low apple tree which had
many dead hchen-covered branches.
Some of these came down nearly to the
ground, and for quite while [ stood
by the tree running my eyes along each
branch in order, trying to make out the
nest, while the female kept darting
frantically at my head. 1t must have
been nearly a quarter of an hour before
discovered that l was standing al
most touching the nest with my hands,
having been looking right over it all
the time. 1t contained two fresh eggs,
this being in the early part of June.
The branch upon which it was built
was completely overgrown with lichens,
and the nest being covered with them,
too, was wonderfully disguised, though
there were no leaves to hide it

SOLD OPIUM WITHOUT
HAVING 4 LICENSE

The first case in which the local po-
lice have been able to catch an illicit
seller of opium redhanded for along
time, occurred last night. An old
Chinaman named PAX Chew. who con-
ducts an opium den on King street in
the big building opposite Kalakaua
avenue, was arrested on the charge
mentioned. It happened that the po-
lice arrived just at the right moment.
Pak Chew had his scales out and was
weighing the drug for one of his GUS
toners, who had the money already on
the table before him. Under the local
laws it is hard to obtain evidence of
the kind needed to obtain a conviction
in an offense of this kind, but Chief
Taylor believes that he has a case
which is sure to bring about a eonvic-
ton when presented in court.

MAKING ZEE BEST OF THINGS.

Looking on the bright side is an at.
titude of mind that can be cultivated
really and truly. Instead of moaning
and groanirg about past, present and
possibly future troubles, it is dutv
we owe not only to ourselves, but to
our family and friends and our little
world to cheerfully make the best of
things, to smile and look pleasant, as
the photographers say. So shall we
teei better in health and temper, and
many OF the worries will disappear as
II by magic. Worry is a habit that
grows rapidly, and the more it is in
dulged in the stronger it grows till
everything goes wrong, and thereare
only only aaTk clouds over n leyerKthiHG. e
ed, and others who have to bear our
fancied grievances come to regard US
as wet blanket, miserable and radi-
ating misery all round. This should
not be SO. Let US enjoy the good
things of life, keeping the SORROWS of
yesterday in the background and re-
fusing to meet future troubles half
way. Many give their troubles too
much place in their thoughts and ex-
aggerate their importance. Even
trouble has its place, for trouble is
necessary for developing certain side
of our natures; sympathy comes by
suffering, and the very things which
hurt and grieve us are helping to make
our natures strong and delightful.
Don't become soured and visit your
misfortune on all the world, which is
really not to blame for it.
A bad temper added to plain face
is misery. But good temper, sweet
ness and unselish manners can make
a plain woman even more charming
than pretty one. .-PittS6u,g- Gazette.

platform of a wayside station, accosted
a red-headed boy of about twelve.
"S.s-say," he said, "d-do you know
h-ha. how late this train is 7"
The boy just grinned, and made no
reply. The man, disgusted, suffered
out something about red-headed kids
in general, and passed into the station.
A stranger, overhearing the one
sided conversation, asked the boy why
he hadn't answered the big man.

TELLING CHARACTER By THE EYES.

If eyes are placed too close togeth-
er, the owner is jealous and critical.
If eyes are far apart, the owner has
a fine memory and broad intelligence.
Deep set eyes show melancholy and
moodiness.
Protruding eyes show self-indul-
gence.
Wide open, round eyes mark mind
that is not developed, iscredulous and
serious about small gossip. The own
ers have no self-control.
If the eye is very oval, almost al
mond shape, with the outward droop
shaped to point, look out for crafty
and subtle nature.
Gray eyes are those of intellect and
a well-balanced character. They
show unselfshness and strict sense
of Justice. When they are put below
a broad, high forehead, they denote
great talent.
Brown eyes, with touch of hazel,
show courage, intelligence and affec-
ton.
When the hazel eye has an arched
eyebrow, it shows 6cklc temper.
Velvety brown eyes show Intense
feeling, and are not often to be trusted.
A glittering black eye expresses
meager intelligence and often physl-
cal courage.
Very light blue eyes are said to al
ways show deceit and cruelty.
Violet blue eyes are loving and
ardent, but impetuous, and do not
show high order of intellect.
