Just watch your canary after he has
had his daily bath. See how each sep
arate feather Is cleaned, pulled and
looked over and how all the loose ones
are taken out and dropped. All this is
done by the bill, for birds neck Is SO
flexible that it can be turned In all d.
rections, but the bill cannot reach the
head, and so Mr.. Canary uses his foot.
With it he combs his hair first on one
side, then on the other, scratching very
fast, as If to get all the tangies out.
Then he uses his hair oil, for, although
complexion powders are not known in
the bird world, hair oil certainly Is.
Ladies and gentlemen alike carry 1t
about with them. They have little
pouch or sack on the back near the
tail for the purpose. When Mime. Bird
wishes to use it she squeezes it out
with her beak, just as you would press
a rubber bulb. Then she lays the oil
on her back just above her wings and
rubs her head against it, turning her
neck In all directions until every feath-
er in her head is straight and shining.

A Aernio nnn.

Near the Hospice of St Bernard.
Switzerland, is a monument to Barry,
one of the dogs, which always inter
ests tourists. This animal died some
years ago, and a writer in the Wide
World Magazine tells his story: "Dur-
ing the ten years he was at the hos
pfce he saved the lives of forty per-
sons who had lost their way In the
snow. On one occasion he found a
child ten years old lying in the snow
under the influence of the fatal slum-
Der which precedes death. The dog
warmed the child with Its breath and
then reused it from sleep by licking it.
This much accomplished, Barry by
lying down on its side gave the child
an obvious invitation to get upon its
back and ride. The child did SO and
was carried to the monastery. Barry
was killed by some unknown person,
probably in mistake" The inscription
on the monument is: Barry, the Hero
ic. Saved the Lives of Forty Persons
and Was Killed by the Forty-frst."
