The people who play, If they have ever

bear fruit. 1t does. But what is the

Changed Voice

A writer in Suburban Life tells OF a
bobolink which learned to sing like a
canary. He was captured when quite
small and given a cage beside fine singer,
for which he soon exhibited great at
tachment. He would sit perfectly still
on his perch for long time watching his
friend intently, then try his best to
initiate his sweet notes.
He tried for three or four weeks before
making any progress; then he succeeded
in sounding one note almost correctly
When he realized his success his wild joy
was pathetic and the canary's pleasure
was very evident. Then he redoubled
his efforts until he could sing nearly the
whole canary song. After that he and
Dick always sang in concert.
But, strangest of all, his character
seemed to change with his song. Instead
of singing but short time in the spring,
as bobolinks do, he sang all the time ex-
cept when melting. And he initiated his
friends characteristics 30 perfectly that
he became canary in all but appearance.

UNION MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE CO.
The best provision man can make for his
family is through the medium Of life insur-
snce, and the most satisfactory information
man who has taken this important step can
have is that the institution with which his
protection is placed is enjoying prosperity
As many Maine people carry their policies
with the Union Mutual Life Insurance Co..
they viii be interested in the story Of prog
ress told by the soth annual report Of that
institution printed to-day
Some OF the important items shown are
gain of ss5o.ooo in surplus, and an increase of
nearly one million and a quarter in assets.
Additions of such size as these 70 the fnan-
cial strength Of an already strong institntion,
show that its affairs are being inteliigentIy
handled, and that il is being conducted along
lines of large prosperity.
Even without knowing the advances which
the figures show, it could practically be taken
for granted that such results had been
achieved, for under the competent manage
ment of Hon. Fred Z. Richards, who has been
president for sixteen years, the Union Mutual
has made regular and remarkable increases
in alLbranches of its brsiness, and there was
every reason for anticipating the same OUT
come at this time. The Onion Mutual is
reliable company with which to have ones
life insurance.

The London Chronicle says that two
Englishmen recently touring in Scot
land found that Sabbatarianism occa-
sionally extends to the middle Of the
week. They were forced by the wealth
er to take refuge IN small country
hotel and after lunch adjourned to the
billiard room 70 kill time until the rain
stopped. The game had hardly started
when the landlord entered in very
drunken condition, upbraided his Wis
itors for their unseemly conduct and
insisted on their leaving the billiard
room. They received profuse apollo
gies from the landlady. Her husband

explained, but. installing the day, be

Sun COOKING.

Sun cooking roasting and boiling by
sunlight instead Of by coal or ras-has
been going on for 800 years. There are
sun stoves that roast a sirloin or boil
q soup to perfection. They are only
used. however. by scientists. A sun
stove consists mainly of mirror-a
spherical mirror-on q joint. There is
also a reflector. The place for pot or
plate is so situated that the mirrors
rays can be focused on II accurately.
A German. Baron Tcherhausen. was
the first sun cook. He began In 1857 TO
boil water. and In less be had very
good success In boiling eggs Sir John
Herschel and Button are other famous
names associated with sun cooking.
In California various sun cooks have
boiled a gallon OF water in twenty
minutes. roasted meat In two hours
and poached eggs In fifteen minutes,
quite as good time as the ordinary fire
makes.
An odd thing about meat roasted by
sun rays is that 1t has an unpleasant
taste This is avoided by the insertion
Of plate OF yellow glass between the
meat and mirror In all solar stoves
the sheet Of yellow glass fsures.-Lon-
don Tit-Bits.

According to Mr.. Wilson, secretary
OF agriculture, the crying need of the
United States is more farmers. In
the near future Mr.. Wilson will begin
thorough investigation to determine
the causes underlying the increased
cost of living in this country. In dis
cussing the proposed inquiry, Mr..
Wilson said: "Too many people are
engaged in the business of distribu-
ton. What we need is more farming.
Too many people are rushing to the
town and to the city and trying to
make living there, and not enough
are staying in the country. Too
many people are trying to get along
without work, and not enough of
them are in the business of producing
something. One man could do the
business of distribution where twenty
are now engaged in it. That is the
reason the cost Of living is high, and
and people are complaining. Our
people must learn that they cannot
get along without work, and the best
place for them is on the farm where
they can raise something"

The record smelt for Patterns bay, Surry,
WAS brought in to The AMERICAN Office
last Thursday by E. n. Osgood, of Surry,
who caught it. The smelt weighed six and
one-half ounces after being out OF the
water all day, and must have weighed
easily half pound when it came out OF
the water. Smells which run four to a
pound are considered big ones. The little
village of tents on the ice at Surry is a
busy place now, though the only evidence
OF it is the column of smoke rising from
the funnel OF each tent. But the smelts
have been running fairly well SO far this
winter, and the man inside the tent is
kept busy and happy tending his lines.
Some good catches have been made, and
the checks which come promptly from
the New York or Boston markets bear
very substantial figures.
