READ THIS TO YOUR BOY.

Do not kill the birds, boys.
killing birds is not u manly sport.
If you kill them because they are
small and you are big and strong, that
is taking an unequal advantage. 1t is
just like your jumping on to a boy
much smaller than yourself.
Use your sling shots and rifles in
shooting at marks. Do not murder In
nocent creatures.
When you have killed a poor little
thing Of feathers and have seen il
hutter to the ground in the death
throes and bathed in its blood have
you not felt asha med of yourself?
Suppose some one fifty times as big
as you should shoot you down lust
for fun"
Well. the birds have as good right to
live as you have. They do not harm
any one. And do you not know how
useful they are?
Here are some figures:
1t is estimated that there are at least
five birds to every acre in the state OF
Massachusetts. That makes a bird
population of $4,000. 900, which is lot
Of birds.
Now
For one days food supply for this
many birds it is estimated that it will
take 100000. O0O-two billion five hun.
bred million-insects. which is a lot OF
insects.
That is just for one day. mind you
You can't figure how many insects
the birds of Massachusetts will de
stroy in one whole summer. You would
run out of figures. ...M go
And then think how many insects
the birds of the United States destroy
To try to count them would be like
trying to count the sands of the sea.
Think of the trees and plants and
crops they save from bugs and cater
pillars and the like. Why. without the
birds the world would be overrun with
vermin.
The birds hive many enemies.
Besides humans they must watch
out for the hawk tribe and the cat
tribe. Storms may blow away their
nests. They may perish OF the cold.
Do not be bird killer.
Instead Of making war on the beau
tifui. busy. joyful things. learn to know
their names and plumage and Ian
guaSe. whistle their songs. protect
their nests feed them. love them.
By doing so a spirit Of gentleness
and happiness will steal into you,

the birds.

DODGED THE DUELS.
voItairs's Disastrous Attempts to Make
De Rohan Fight.

veItaire's Disastrous Attempts to Make
De Rohan Fight.
Literary men in dueling times and
countries have always been rather
prone to get into trouble from which
only a passage at arms could extricate
them. Voltaire had at various turns a
number of duels on his hands, but
counted among them two which did
not reach the expected climax.
One of these was his affair with the
Chevalier de Rohan Chabot, who goad-
ed him to the point Of fighting and
then, instead of giving him the salts
faction dema nded, had him lured into
a coach and soundly whipped with
switches by some hirelings concealed
there.
voltaire, after trying in vain to In
duce one Of his noble friends to back
him in his further pursuit of his en-.
envy, appealed to the municipal author
ities in these phrases: II humbly rep
resent that I have been brutally as
saulted by the courageous Chevalier
de Rohan. aided by six cutthroats
behind whom he was bravely posted
restore not my honor, but his, a task
toe difficult"
As this public affront failed to pro
duce any effect. Voltaire hunted on,
the chevalier one evening at the thea
ter and flung insults in his face there
Rohan at last consented to meet him
but contrived to let the news reach
other members Of the Rohan family
who had Voltaire arrested and thrown
into the Bastille.-New York Post

Birds Eggs.

Ostriches lay the largest eggs of all
birds now extant, according to a writ
er In the Scientific American, but the
ostrich's egg would have appeared
small beside that extinct Madagascar
bird. the epyornis. which measured
more than thirty inches In its small
est circumference. The smallest birds
eggs are those OF the minute species of
humming birds. which are smaller
than the eggs of certain kinds OF trop-
fcal beetles. But the cuckoo lays the
relatively smallest egs-that is to say.
while the jackdaw and the cuckoo are
about equal in size. the formers egg is
five or six times larger than the lat
ter's. The fact that the cuckoo is
wont to deposit its eggs in the nests
of birds which IRE usually much small
er than itself doubtless accounts for
this. The relatively largest egg is laid
by the XVII. a strange. wingiess New
Zealand bird. The egg is no less than
five inches lonS. although the extreme
length of the bird itself is only TWEEN

HERES ENTERPRISE

Mitchell. S. D., May 3O.-The increas-
ing number of settlers has given an
added impetus to the establishment of
newspapers in the western part of the
state to get the final proof business
which will eventually be handed out.
The papers have grown numerous in
the past few months, and at Farming
dale three newspapers are thriving on
a population of about twenty-five peo-
pie and three or four business houses.
The editors of two of the papers have
adopted unique names, one being called
Screwdriver and the other Gimlet. The
thid paper takes on a more dignified
name and is called the Great Western
Magazine.

Three hundred miles was a long

Somehow in these days they do not
seem to get the crust just right. Has
the mixing of the shortening come to
be a lost art? And the apples are
cooked too much or not enough. And
there Is not enough sugar or too much.

Why. the pies we get today are just
like "boughten" pies.

sugar and lemon and nutmeg to suit
the taste Of boy. Nor were they ex

And yet those pies were never over
