FED BY THE BOTTLE.

About three months ago I was
much surprised on coming home from
school to find that l was the possessor
of four puppies. I was to be disap-
pointed, however, for next morning
l was informed that during the night
the mother dog had died.
Who should take care of the or
Dhans? They were only day old
too young to take care Of themselves.
1t was then that l thought OF raising
them by the bottle. | bought some
bottles, filled them with warm milk
and put them in q convenient position
in the puppies box. They began to
sneeze and to sputter in a very queer
and discouraging manner. But one
adventurous little puppy soon discov.
cred that the milk was worth taking
and his three brothers were soon Ci
the same opinion.
You can be sure that they did not
have to starve, for few yelps always
brought half dozen people to them
and the puppies would be over
wbelmed with milk.
Three months later there were four
fris!Ey little puppies running about
and chasing one another on the lawn
These were not everyday puppies, but
puppies brought up by the bottle

A TURTLE DAY.


want to tell you about an expert
ence l had last spring when had the
turtle fever and was very anxious to
find some turtles myself. I started
out one morning carrying net over
nay shoulder in search of them. |
walked all around a little lake where
turtles would most likely live, but not
a trace could l find. l was about to
give up when I remembered a little
pond near the lake where 1 had often
seen turtles. l walked cautiously
around the edge and then my heart
gave a leap, for there in the bottom
of the pond, right near the shore,
was turtle. Now every one knows
that these reptiles dive into the mud
at the least noise, and it requires a
cautious and quick movement to get
one, so 1 thought it best to catch 1t
with my hand. Slowly I reached to-
ward it and then made grab. But
ouch! such Shiny, horrid creature
l held. Not like the ordinary water
turtle at all, but a soft spongy she'll
and big head that twisted around
and tried to bite me. l never had
such an unpleasant surprise. l
dropped the turtle, you may be sure,
but after so much labor was deter
mined not to go home empty hand
ed. So I tried to take him home in
a handkerchief, but his ugly head
first peered out from one corner and
then from the other. He frightened
me so that 1 dropped him, handker-

LOVE THE RIRDS.

The birds of different countries and
climes make most interesting study,
and the more we learn of our little
feathered kinsfolk of the air the more
will we love them and hold their life
and liberty dear. To destroy the life
of bird for the purpose of mere klll-
ing-to display ones craftsmanship
is simply murder, and nothing

bird. Life is given to all creatures -.
the air, the waters and the land by
our Creator, and not one should be
held lightly. Therefore, when chill
dren kill birds for the mere sake OF
killing they are committing very
grievous sin. And to capture and
cage them is even more wicked, for
a bird in a cage is the same as child
in a prison, removed from all that 1t
holds dear in life. Every boy and
girl who reads this should try to i'm
agine himself and herself kidnapped
by some great monster, with whom

above the water, McLane attempted
to swim ashore, which he would have
accomplished with ease if it had not
again been for the strong wind.
Struggling against strong current
with one hand out of commission, the
swimmer was beset by another obsta-
Gle. He discovered that the wind was
causing the water to be very rough
and touched with whitecaps, which
broke over his face all too fast.
Without once thinking of aband-
oning his new purchase, the North
ern swimmer crushed it into small
ball and crammed it in under his
shirt. Then, with both arms free,
McLane was able to reach shore. AS
he walked out of the river onto the
bank, his clothes dripping water and
the Panama out of any semblance of
shape, he was met with loud outlaws
from a small crowd Of levee negroes
and roustabouts who had gathered to
witness the recovery of the straw hat.
Stalking past the ruffians, McLane
was heard to say, Gee, wish 1 had
my overcoat! !"-Kansas City Journal

ON THE MERRICK ROAD.

Life on the Merrick road, which
leads along the south shore OF Long
Island, on a sunny Sunday afternoon
is a very exciting thing. At sunrise
the "honl1" of the first automobiles
wakes the slumbering resident, and
from that time on till late at night
there is an endless procession OF veh1-
cles going to and fro. There is every
thing from a $4,000 French car to
a bicycle.
At half-past on Sunday afternoon
a bus full of fellows, who evidently
had been on an excursion further down
the island, came numbering along
the Merrick road. The occupants,
all very much intoxicated, were quar-
reling among themselves. A couple
of them were half asleep. A small
boy, a brother of one of the men, sat
on the steps, paying no attention to
his comrades. The dispute became
more and more heated. One OF the
sleepers woke up, but, in spite OF the
efforts of the rest, the other man
could not be aroused. At last, full of
anger and alcohol, the company fell
upon him and beat him until he
jumped out and ran up the road,
where a free for all fight followed:
Numbers being against him, he soon
fell down in the road, when four Of
the men kicked him in the head. At
this a few Of the assailants became
faint-hearted and ran off, breaking
down hedges, trampling over flower
beds and arousing all the dogs in the
neighborhood.
By this time policeman and a fire
man arrived and arrested four of the
chief offenders. Three they let go,
taking the drunkenest man to the
Board of Health Office for the night
and to Mineola Jail. The one who
had been kicked was taken to doc
tor, where he had his head tied up.
The, road in the wake of the wagon
was strewn with sausages, beer bot
ties and tin cans. The town officials
arrested fifteen automobiles for fast
driving. This was an exciting Sum
day for FreepOrt. L. Num-
ford, in the New York Tribune.

Now, the world had birds to fly
and to sing before man was created.
Birds are as much part of the beau

trees. There are so many kinds OF
birds that to just read over the names
of a few of the varieties will rouse
any boys and girls interest, and they
will at once desire to learn something
about each of these varieties, and OF
others that will come under their no.

in variety than are the northern coun-

curious habits, and form reverend

study about.
A list of the names of different
families of birds, so to speak, is given
here, birds that are most interesting

RESCUE FROM RIVER.

Leaving an uptown hotel where he
had registered the night before, John
F. McLane started for a walk until
it was time to meet the members of
a firm of bond brokers with whom he
had an engagement. When he left
his home in Detroit McLane wore a
light topcoat and soft hat. But the
sun, he discovered, was much nearer
the earth at Kansas City than in De-
troit and the display of straw hats in
the window Of a haberdashery at
tracted his attention. Entering the
store, he soon was wearing rakish
Panama hat.
1t was the new hat and the high
winds that later caused the North
stroll led him to the river bank at the
foot Of Main street, and he sauntered
along the bank beside the river un-
til he reached Grand avenue A sud
den gust of wind lifted the new pur-
chase clear of his head, notwithstand-
ing !the frantic efforts of the owner
10 regain it. 1t twisted and twirled
.tn the air until, some thirty feet out
over the river, it dropped to the

=, The sight of his new headgear
smoothly sailing down the muddy
Missouri hacked his nerves, and,
throwing caution to the winds, braved
the dangers of the treacherous river
and plunged in. Being raised on the
Great Lakes, McLane was q strong
swimmer and unhesitatingly struck
out toward his headpiece. Little diff
ficulty, besides the uncomfortable
feeling of his wet clothing was ex-
perienced by the Detroit purveyor
of bonds. When he reached the straw
hat, however, his troubles began. ~-

big COW elephant charged him. He
jumped behind large tree as the ele-

into the trunk of the tree that they

TREASURE HUNTING IN EGYPT.

A certain native discovered the en-
trance of a tomb in the floor of his
stable, and at once proceeded to
worm his way down the tunnel. That
was the end of the man. His wife,
finding that he had not returned two
hours Or so later, went down the new
ly found tunnel after him. That was
the end of her also. In turn three
other members of the family went
down into the darkness, and that was
the end of them. A native official
was then called, and, lighting his way
with a candle, penetrated down the
winding passage. The air was SO
foul that he was soon obliged to re-
treat, but he stated that he was just
able to see in the distance ahead the
bodies of the unfortunate peasants,
all of which had been overcome by
what he quantity described as "the
evil lighting and bad climate. Va
rious attempts at the rescue of the
bodies having failed, we gave orders
that this tomb should be regarded as
their sepulchre, and that it's mouth
should be sealed up. According to
the natives, there was evidently a
vast hoard of wealth stored at the
bottom of this tomb, and the would
be robbers had met their death at the
hands of the demon in charge of it,
who had seized each man by the,
throat as he came down the tunnel
and had strangled him.-A. E. P.
