WOMAN IN JUNGLES

Americans.
Il start out with my gun over my
shoulder from the quaint old city Of
Cartagena, where / make my head

the old road leading out from the
city into the wilderness, and paddle
up the Atrato river to whers | have a
little house built up on poles like the
other native huts. For Che Atrato
river overfows its banks here for hun
dreds Of miles, and as in Venice, we
have to do most Of our travelling by
canoe.
AS | push upstream In my little
canoe past gorgeous towering vines
which know enough to leave alone,
for death turks in their glossy folds
under great gloomy overhanging
trees, with immense vines trailing
down to the water, a strange bird flies
into the branches of tree ahead Of
me. paddle softly with my gaze
fixed on the branches of the tree. The
boat runs ashore.
There is sudden splash, a terrific
blow over the bow Of the canoe which
almost shivers it to pieces, and my
gaze is suddenly brought down from
the bird to big alligator which has
been asleep on the shore and which |
did not notice. The alligator plunges
into deep water and am left lament
ing because the bird has taken fright
and flown away.
Il don't mount the birds. make
what are in museum parlance called
skins. The rarest bird find in Co
Iombia and the most difficult to Sc
cure is the jabiru (MyGteria Ameri-
cana), i've feet tall, with spread Of
wings of 100 inches, a snowy, satiny
white, with a band Of crimson wattles
about the neck. He Is the most diff
cult OF all birds to stalk, showing al
most human intelligence in his self-de-
tense.

Wife Of Prince Victor Of Thurn and

ful Rank BY the Emperor
Of Austria.

Paris The appearance OF four
lines in minute type In the Almanach
de Gotha-that volume SO precious to
those who possess high titles and
those who worship them-has raised
an American woman to acknowledged
senli-royal rank.
She who was Leota Eleanor Nicolls
Of Uniontown, Pa, and who married
Prince Victor Of Thurn and Taxis has
been accorded her rightful rank, de-
spite the fact that her husband mar
ried her without the permission Of
his sovereign. Emperor Franz Josef
OF Austria.
The Almanach de Gotha, naming
the members Of the house OF Thurn

states:

The blanks appear because the
place and date of the Princess birth
had not been verified at the time of
the Almanach's going to press.
By this official acknowledgment
Princess Victor who has fortune in
her own right, now takes precedence
In any European court of all her coun-
trywomen who have married titles.
Prince Victor's first cousin. Prince
Albert, is the reigning Prince Of Thurn

Most species Of wild ducks have not
been persuaded to breed under re-
straint, but 1t has been believed that
they would do so II stock could be Sc
cured that was hand-reared from the
egg and had never learned wild ways.
Mr.. Job established camp on the
shore Of Lake Manitoba. Wild ducks
eggs were collected in the surrounding
wilderness, and Matched out in incu-
bators. Twelve species of wild ducks
nest In that region, and eggs or young
of all these were secured.
In the majority Of cases every egg
Matched. The average for the season
was 80 per cent, far better than poul-
try men often attain. Most of the
young. except of two peculiar mari
time species-the white-winged scoot-
er and the rudy duck-were reared
with little loss. Even such supposedly
wild natures as the redhead canvas
back, bluebill and various others
proved perfectly docile. thriving in
confinement.
On the 2,000-mile Journey back Mr..
Job personally cared for and tended
the consignment in the express cars.
A fine large stock, representing eleven
species, arrived in good conditioa
and are now thriving at one Of the
large preserves affiliated with the ex-
pertinent station Experiments with
them will be conducted there. On the
trip only one duckling, some three
weeks old, died
The achievement Is expected TO
prove the beginning Of an important
movement to save and restore the
wild fowl, while demonstrating the ef-
feet Of environment on even the Wild
est creatures.

CASSEROLE WILL STAY
COOKING UTENsIL HAS INNuMER-
ABLE GOOD POINTS.
Simple Precautions Housewife Should
Take to Insure Satisfaction In lie
use-Fleree Heat Always
to Be Avoided.

The cooking done In casseroles has
several important advantages over
that OF the ordinary kitchen vessel.
The dishes are without the metal
taste which 80 often contaminates
common pots and pans, As the, cook
Ing is slow and thorough, the nutritive
values Of food are preserved and the
perfection OF their flavor is therefore
concentrated.
The ornamental appearance OF the
various dishes used permits serving
the viands In the very utensils u
which they were cooked, which Is q
tremendous point when the dish needs
to be eaten very hot. Food can be
put away In the casserole without dan
ger Of changing color or taste, as
would happen If it we're left to chill In
metal vessel. The earthenware Of
which the dishes are made is not open
to the acid influences Of fruit, and
therefore is without the possibility Of
any noxious change. The enamel Of
the inside does not scale of, It Is
easily kept clean, and so food pre-
pared In the casserole is clean and
sweet.
The pretty marmite for soup-mak-
ing. the larger and smaller pots and
shallow pans and plates, In every size,
can be bought cheap in many depart
ment stores. Among the many shades
Of brown there are some green tones
these vessels of French make
which are very effective on the table.
Some don'ts are involved in the prop
er care Of the charming utensils.
Before using them for the first time
the dishes should be soaked in cold
water for some hours, as this will help
to keep them from cracking on their
first exposure to heat. Never put the
vessels on the hot stove or in the
oven without first putting in water or
fat. Do not put them roughly on
metal surface or set them when hot
on a metal table. A fierce heat is
never desirable, and so even if the
flame Of the top of the stove is low it
is best to put an asbestos mat under
the vessel used
Many more things for the preserva-
ton of these toy-like cooking vessels
might be said, and for young house
keepers and girls who want to learn
how to cook In a dainty and perfect
manner they are certainly more inspir-
ing than the common cook pot, par
and kettle.
