MAN A REAL LOVER OF BIRDS.
Has Provided 5000 Nesting Boxes on
His Estate.

AT least one man with big estate
has made use of it to help birds to live
there instead of turning it into a sort
OF open air slaughterhouse.
He is Baron Won Berlepsch and his
estate In Thuringia is bird sanctuary.
According to writer in the Pail Mall
Magazine, he has planted trees and
bushes favorable to the birds he wants
to cultivate and has supplied 5000
nesting boxes in addition.
or these 5000 boxes rs out of every
100 were occupied last spring. In one
thicket. little stretch planted with
low bushes, there were 100 nests
built by the birds at the rate of a nest
to every foot of space. A close hedge
OF whitehorn and wild roses protects
the grounds on the village side from
the children who might want to come
a-birdnesting, and ingeniously con.
triyed traps await marauding crea.

HISTORICAL RECORD OF RINGS.

the World.

The ring began when man thrust
his finger through a hole in a pretty
shell, and later learned 20 make rings
or jet. The ring is very magical.
Lord Ruthven, who helped to kill Riz-
zio, gave Queen Mary a ring which
was "sovran" against poison, and she
generously replied with the present Of
her fathers wonderful teweled dagger
or French work, no longer in exist
ence. Whether Ruthven fooled with
this magnificent weapon in the affair
OF Rizzio or used cheaper article is
uncertain. At all events Mary based
on the ring that was an antidote to
poison charge of sorcery against
Ruthven. The judges of Jeanne dare
regarded with much suspicion her lit
tie ring of base metal, a gift from her
parents, inscribed with the sacred
names Jesus Maria.
it was usual to touch the relics of
saints with rings; Jeanne dare said
that her ring had touched the body Of
st. Catherine, whether she meant OF
the actual saint ior a relic Of the saint,
brought from Sinai to Fierbois. The
ring might contain relic, or, later, a
miniature. fear that do not believe
In the virtues or vices of poison rings.
Our ancestors practically knew no poi
son but arsenic, and Carthaginian
science can scarcely have enabled
Hannibal to poison himself with a
drug contained under the stone Of a
ring.-Andrew Lang, in London Post.
