English Song Birds for America

Over 1000 canaries left England for
America recently, besides large num-
Der of other English songsters.
Whether a craze for song birds has
sprung up in America or not is hard
to say, but it is the fact that more
than 10000 of them will have gone
across the Atlantic by the end of the
year. A bird fancier, who was inter-
viewed on the subject, said that there
was undoubtedly great demand for
these birds just now, although there
was always a fairly steady sale, both
In America and the colonies. Germany
bred good many canaries for export,
says the London Standard, but the
great place for the business was Nor
witch, where quite large number OF
breeders confined themselves solely to
this particular kind of bird Better
prices could be obtained for the birds
abroad than in this country, and
breeders had, therefore, found it was
worth their while to export their birds
in large quantities. The expectation
of them was a comparatively simple
process, and there was very little loss
through birds dying on the voyage.

cial Rates Of Postage.

Washington, Feb. Ex-senator

pound, five cents.
Two important limitations are
placed on the use of the proposed par

shall be taken as authorizing the ac-
ceptance or delivery at the special
rates of postage herein provided of any
parcel offered by any person acting as
agent, representative, upon commits
sion or otherwise, for any person or
company not resident on such rural
delivery route.
THAT only such parcels shall be re-
ceived for delivery at the special rates
of postage herein provided as are Of
fered by bona fde merchants or deal
ers whose regular places of business
are on rural routes covered by this
act, in the ordinary and regular course
CT their business, and by residents on
such routes in their individual ca.
pacity."
The bill provides that the parcels
carried shall not weigh more than II

inches in length. Perishable articles
will be sent at the sender's risk and
will not be accepted at any postoffice
more than three hours before depart

legs were so badly mangled that i'm

Dr. Zeigler was summoned by the po-

precarious was Harirson's condition
that the operation was performed in
the street, both legs being taken off

One of the local clergymen thinks
the leap-year joke is cruel and vicious.
Well, it is cruel and heartless, to say
the least, because there is nothing in
1t. The man who is banking on it will
be just as single at the end of the year
as he was at the beginning, il not
more so, says the Chicago Daily News.
1t is a mistake to think that the girls
want to get married, though some
times they can be persuaded to marry,
which is quite a different thing. Left
to themselves, the subject never en-
tiers their minds, so how could they
concoct leap-year episode and carry
1t to a successful conclusion? 1t is
only after man mentions the subject
that they suspect his designs and
then, it being so sudden, they always
want at least minute to think 1t over.

There's a Reason"
BRAIN POWER
Increased by Proper Feeding.

A lady writer who not only has done
good literary work, but reared fam
lily, found in Grape-Nuts the ideal food
for brain work and to develop healthy
children. She writes:
81 am an enthusiastic proclaimer Of
Grape-Nuts as a regular diet. / for
merly had no appetite in the morning
and for years while nursing my four
children, had insufficient nourishment
for them.
Unable to eat breakfast felt faint
later, and would go to the pantry and
eat cold chops, sausage, cookies,
doughnuts or anything happened to
find. Being a writer, at times my
head felt heavy and my brain asleep.
when | read of Grape-Nuts began
eating it every morning, also gave 1t
to the children, including my 10
months old baby, who soon grew as
fat as a little pig, good natured and
contented.
II wrote evenings and feeling the
need of sustained brain power, began
eating a small saucer of Grape-Nuts
with milk, instead Of my usual indi-
gestible hot pudding, pie, or cake for
dessert at night.
Il grew plump, nerves strong, and
when wrote my brain was active and
clear; indeed, the dull head pain never
returned"
