At the Bird Store Window,


The bird store window is an unfail

haps it attracts men more than WON.
en-, but it is magnet that draws all
children.
Let small boys or girls discover a
bird store and they halt and linger
long, wondering over or admiring the
strange or beautiful feathered crea.
lures within, and children walking
with their mother if they should spy
this window are sure to tug her to-
ward it to give them chance to look
in. The bird store window interests
all children, as it appears to interest
also many grown men who may be
drawn to it by natural fondness for
birds and animals, or be attracted by
the novel or striking character of the
exhibit on view.
Here, for instance, in this window

Man Power and Coal Power.

Does any one realize the power OF
coal as worker? A man was set to
work to pump as hard as he could all
day, and at the end of ten hours 1t
was found that he had done just as
much work as little less than two
ounces of coal could do.
Taking all the energy put forth by
hard working man during one whole
year, the same amount Of force would
be furnished by SO pounds of good
coal. Or say 40 pounds of average
coal.
We produce six tons a head of pop
ulation, and this contains the energy
OF 1886 men working for a whole year.
OF course, even in our best engines
the or eater part of the working en-.
ergy OF coal is wasted. But even II
only one-tenth is turned to account,
one and half hundred weight of coal
is equal to man working for 800
days OF the year.
A horse can do as much work as ten
men, but one and a quarter pounds OF
coal has as much working force as q
horse expends in one day. So that q
ton of coal, If We could use all it's
force, would do as much work as si1
horses working for whole year.

To Treat Umbrellaa.

Umbrellas require good deal of at.
tention to keep them in good condi.
ton, and how few Of them get 1t.
After the umbrella has been out in the
rain 1t should not be thrust in the UNI
brella stand and left to drain, for in
this position the moisture gradually
accumulates in the silk just above the
ferrule and causes it to rot. The UNI
brella should be opened and placed in
an airy room until thoroughly dry.
When finally put away It should be
left unrolled. for If constantly kept
tight the creases rapidly wear through.
1t is exposing an umbrella to an
early death to place 1t in the rack at
all. and hastily set down stick is
likely to put hole in It; far better to
hang 1t by the handle.
