Sometimes, however, a bird will
contract a cold because of conditions
not under control. A swelling will
appear. and. unless treated, will grow
to such an extent that the birds
mouth will become obstructed and it
Will be unable to eat and will soon
die.
The best method is always to sep
arate the affected birds. Put them
into clean. dry quarters. Take each
bird and wash the affected parts
principally the mouth and the swelling
itself-with equal parts of peroxide Of
hydrogen; or a solution of boracic acid
Will answer the same purpose. This
should be done three times a day.
Into the drinking water should be
put permaganate of potash, enough to
give the water a claret red color. The
food should consist of a. scratch food
in h morning and evening and a gem
erous supply of vegetable food during
the day. The grain food should be
fed in litter unless the swelling has
progressed to a point where the bird
cannot scratch for WI food. In that
case the grain should be fed from a
tray until the washing treatment has
lessened the swelling. AS soon as the
bird is able to scratch it should be
made to do so, for that will increase
It's strength and improve its health.
both of which are necessary to aid
the bird in throwing off the disease.
A mash of equal parts of wheat
bran. ground corn. ground oats, and
ground barley. with a little pepper
added. will aid them if opened about
noon time and left for them for three
or four hours during the afternoon.

Peter Rabbit had sat still just as
long as he could He was stiff and
lame and sore from the wounds made
by Hooty the Owl, but his curiosity
wouldn't let him sit still a minute
longer. He just had to explore the
Old Pasture. So with many a wary
face and many an ouch he limped
out from the shelter OF the friendly
see what the Old Pasture was like.
Now. Hooty the Owl had taught
Peter wisdom. With his torn clothes
and his aches and smarts he couldn't
very Well forget to be careful. First
he made sure that there was no dan
ger near, n this time. you may be
sure, he took pains to look all around
IN the sky as we'll as on the ground.
Then he limped out to the very patch

know Peter thinks a great deal of his
stomach. So he began to eat as fast
as he could. stopping every other
mouthful to look and listen. st know
It's a bad habit to eat fast" said he,

his little Jaws go, which is very fast.
indeed.
When Peters stomach was stuffed
full he gave a great sigh of relief and
limped back to the friendly old bram-
BILE bush to rest. But he couldn't sit
still long, for he just had to find out
all about the Old Pasture. So pretty
soon he started but to explore. Such
a wonderful place as it seemed to
Peter. There were clumps Of bushes
With little open places between. Just
the incest kind of Fairgrounds. Then
there were funny spreading, prickly

SWELLING NEAR EYE.

oftentimes. particularly in damp
weather, a poultryman meets a chick
en- with a swelling near Its eye. That
swelling, II taken in hand early and
treated persistently, is o dangerous.
The treatment is simple too, and the
mere removing of the cause Of the
trouble is usually sufficient to keep
trouble from extending in the flock.
The cause Of this swelling may be
due to dampness in the coop. to birds
getting wet and going to bed damp,
and going to roost in coops hat are
unclean. where the droppings have
made the air filthy, and where lice and
mites r numerous. Lice and mites.
remember, tend to aid disease by
weakening chickens. They prevent
the birds from getting their proper
nights rest.
So you see what a fine combination
a foul coop, dampness, and lice and
mites are to keep down the very thing
We desire-healthy birds and a gen.
erous egg supply. No wonder birds
get Ill. No wonder they get dumpy.
No wonder they sit around with heads
down and feathers dropping. Food IS
wasted when such conditions prevail.
It is almost like throwing money into
the field and spending a day trying to
pick it UP again. You don't get it all
and you waste your time.
II the swelling about the eye comes
from causes such as these there is no
use trying to cure the birds until
these conditions have been remedied

juniper trees. the very safest kind OF
to hide. Everywhere We're paths
made by cows. Very wonderful they
seemed to Peter. who had never seer
any like them before. He liked to fol-
low them for they led to all kinds OF
queer places.
Sometimes he would come to places
where tall trees made him think of
the Green Forest. only there were
never more than a few trees together.
Once he found an old tumble-down
stone wall all covered with vines and
he shouted right out with delight.
It's a regular castle!" cried Peter,
and he knew that there he would be
safe from every one but Shadow the
Weasel But he never was wholly safe
from Shadow the Weasel anywhere,
SO he didn't let that thought worry
him. BY and by he came to a wet
place. called a swamp. The ground
was soft and there were little pools
OF water. Great ferns grew there.
just as they did along the bank of the
Laughing Brook, only more Of them.
There were pretty birch trees and wild
cherry trees. 1t was still and dark
and, oh. so peaceful! Peter liked that
place and sat down under a big fern
to rest He didn't hear a sound ex-
cepting the beautiful silvery voice OF
Veery the Thrush. Listening to 1t
Peter fell asleep, for ne was very tired.
By and by Peter awoke. For a
minute he couldn't think where he
was. Then he remembered. But for
a long time he sat perfectly still
thinking Of his adventures and won
dering II they would miss him down
on the Green Meadows. Then all Of a
sudden Peter saw something that
made him sit up SO suddenly that he
cried. "Ouch!" for he had forgotten
all about how stiff and sore he was.
What do you think Peter saw? They
were tracks! Yes. sir. they were
tracks, Rabbit tracks in the soft mud,

Both Queen Alexandra and her sis
ter. Dowager Empress Marie Of Rus
STA. are in mourning. and the photo
graph shows the latter at the left in
a black broadcloth tailored suit, cut
n made on severely plain lines. In
It there is no slightest hint o. the
french modiste's cunning nor of the
English tailor's chic. The suit has
merely collar and cuff facings of Eng
lish crepe and a very deep band of
the same extending from the knees
to the hem Of the skirt. The hat, is
OF the stiff conventional bonnet type,
which suggests nothing so much as a
hard Bathbun. set extremely high on
her head and covered with more
crepe.
Queen Alexandra Con the rightly an
pears to have conceded more to orna-
m%entation, for her suit Of black
panama shows a braided border de-
sign encirclins the hem Of the skirt
and braided frog %fastenings on the
fronts Of the coat. Her hat, too, while
almost as stiff and as highly perched
as her sisters, has been softened by
a large, black silk rose and foliage
caught at one side.
Narrow skirts. Empire waist lines.
and all the soft, fussy neck things
welcomed by the fashionable women
OF 1913 do not appear to interest the
royal sisters in the least.

Here is a photograph Of Alexandra.

press OF Russia, perhaps the two most
prominent wornen in the world.
dressed in the plainest garb which
could be selected by women Of wealth.
Hobble skirts. low necks and other
peculiarities Of fashion are not for
them. The picture was taken June
10, when the two women attended the
Irish industries exhibition in London,
and 1t shows them as dressed for the
spring in England.
It may be that We have gathered
g too splendid impression Of the garb
donned by royalty from the fairy tales
OF our youth, in which the brothers
Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen
were wont to dwell on the sumptuous-
ness Of queenly attire. At any rate.
when queens are mentioned one un-
f~alteringly conjures up a radiant pic
ture that includes all the purple and
fine linen," and the inevitable royal
ermine.
In startling contrast to these pre-
conceptions we have here two queens
In reality. both dressed in the plain,
prosaic garb of ordinary humanity,
yet this in itself is paradoxical, inas-
much as the ordinary mortal feels it
incumbent on her to dress to the
highest point of modernity.

MURRAY NOT INVITED
TORETAIN OFFICE
Deputy Comptroller Kane to Act Until
Successor to Murray Is
Appointed.

Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo an
nounced yesterday that his action in
barring the woman clerk employed by
the Riggs and National City Banks from
using, a desk in the Office of the Comp
troller of the Treasury does not N any
way interfere with those two or any
other banks obtaining their information
in the regular way. He stated that any
bank would continue to be welcome to
send its representative to the Comptrol-
ler's Office to obtain the information OBJ
tanned from the bank calls. after it is
made public, but that no one would be
permitted to regularly occupy the Office
for that purpose.
Secretary McAdoo also made plain that
his action in this case has no bearing
on the departure of Lawrence o. MUIR
ray from the Office of Comptroller of
the Currency today. It was explained
that Mr.. Murray was appointed for a
specific term of five years. which ex-
pires April q. and that he was not be-
ing removed and that his resignation was
not necessary. 1t was added. however,
that Mr.. Murray had not been invited
to remain until his successor could be
appointed. Mr. McAdoo has not yet
taken up the subject of his successor,
and in the meantime Deputy Comptroller
Kane will act in charge of the Office.

WHEN THE HOUSE OF MORGAN
TALKS.
tCopyriah.. 1918. by c. NJ. Key. New York J

Copyrigtst. 1915. by c. NJ. Keys. New York;
Just about the same time that the
Pujo Committee in Washington issued
its majority report. the banking house
Of J. p. Morgan & Co.. of New York,
gave out a letter in which it, too, dis
cussed the question that had been the
subject of inquiry in Washington. The
gist of the committee report was: There
Is money trust. The people ought to
smash 1t and can do so IL they like"
The gist of the Morgan letter was:
There Is no money trust and no ef-
forts ought to be made to interfere with
the banking machinery of this country,
except to reform the manifest weakness
Of our currency and banking system. :"
The writer has talked with a great many
men. most of them engaged in the ,finan-
cial business. concerning these two pub
locations. Outside of those Immediately
interested. there have been only one or
two who have read either of these docu-
ments in< full and there has not been
one who gave any careful reading to the
Morgan letter.
As mater of fact the American pub.
lie was very nearly satisfied after it
had read the head lines Of the committee
report, and 1t has based its conclusions
about the matter on those head lines.
The public, therefore, has a vision of
a sort of monstrous machine owned and
operated by ]. p. Morgan & Co. and
Messrs.- George F. Baker and James
Stillman. The purpose Of this machine
is to control the flow Of credit>here and
throughout the United States and thereby
to control, in a large measure. all the
financial operations OF American COM
merce. 1t seems not unlikely that this
conception on the part of the people will
be the basis for legislation designed TO
do away with this condition or alleged
condition.
There Is something strange about the
fact that big business in these days Is
almost denied a public hearing Of its
case. There was time when state
