WINTER SPENT ON THE NILE
EnaIish Writer Tells of Life on q
River Steamer That Passes
Through Flowery Fields.

Cairo, Egypt-Without doubt the
pleasantest place in which to spend a
pan-wintry winter is Egypt-the banks
Of the Nile. In Cairo, perhaps, il is
not quite correct to describe the win
ter as non-wintry, for the early morn
Ing and evening cold is sufficient to
make itself very sensibly felt; but in
Assuan and Luxor the winter is no
winter in the European sense of the
word, says a writer in the London
Post.
BY Christmas the narcissus and the
violets, immense beds Of which grow
In the gardens, are already in bloom:
while by March, our early spring, the
orange blossom and the scarlet hi
discus are fully out, the pink and
white oleanders and petunias are
towering with a profusion utterly I'M
known in European gardens, and the
long, lofty wall of the Winter Palace

MEAT RATION FOR THE HENS
Experiment Conducted at West VII
ainla Station Shows Its Use In
creases Egg Production.
CBy N. K. BILLINGs.)

The effect OF meat rations for hens
was tested at the West Virginia ex.
pertinent station where one pen Of
fowls received ration largely of corn
and other starchy grains, while an,
other pen was fed partly on meat and
fresh bone. The meat-fed fowls laid
1866 eggs. while the granted fowls
laid 3,431, or less than onehalf as
many as those receiving the nitro
genous ration. The eggs from the
meat-fed fowls were larger, much
frmer, rather better and produced
far more vigorous chickens than those
Of the others. Both lots Of fowls re
NAMED in healthy, vigorous cond
ton.

Discouraalno a Vocalist.

Why a certain parrot never learned
to talk, Current Opinion tells in
these words:
Kerrigan went on trip to South
America. and while there bought
pretty SpanishN parrot as present
for his friend O'Brien. He shipped
the bird to O'Brien at once, and when
he got back home. he said:
"Dinny, did we get the fine parrot
! stint We from Rio Joneiro?
Il did that, Kerrigan. and want to
tell We that / peasr PUT me teeth into
a tougher bird in me life!'

chiidren's humor.

The poetry Of life is frequently seen
in childhood. We have this illustrated
in the description of butterflies as
'pansies flying"
"A star is cinder from Gods great
star" has a wealth Of unconscious
meaning. But perhaps the finest ap-
proach to poetry was made by a tiny
tot who defined dew as the grass
crying" "Oh, auntie," said little
girl, I've just seen pencil walking. /"
The nurse who had grown out OF
fairyland explained it was only an or
binary worm.
