Smallest Birds the Brevest.

Birds fearless are the humming birds.
So unafraid are these charming crea-
lures that they readily will enter open
windows of houses If they see the
flowers within. They even have been
known to visit the artificial flowers
on a womans hat when she was walk
ing out, and other writers speak OF
their taking sugar from between a
persons lips. In room they become
confused and, being frail. are apt to
injure themselves by striking against
objects. 1t is of no use to try to
keep them in captivity unless possibly
it were in a greenhouse, where there
were plenty Of flowers, for no artificial
food ever has been found which will
nourish them. Yet even in green
house they probably would kill them
selves by flying against the glass.
