Ladies' House Dress.

White drill was selected for this
model, with a simple finish of stitch
ing for characterization. For a work
dress there are such serviceable neat
ginghams, percales, galateas and
seersuckers, that will be good for this
design. As a porch dress, it will be
equally satisfactory, made up in lawn,
batiste, linen, linene, ratine or rice
cloth. The neck edge is low and cool
looking, with a neat tab edging, the
right front. This feature is again
repeated on the skirt, which also
shows a convenient pocket. The sleeve
is trimmed with a tab cuff, which
could be omitted. The pattern is cut

Our Great American Hooking Bird

Mocking thrush Minus or Orphe-
us), a genus of birds of the family
Merulidae, having a more elongated
form than the true thrushes, longer
tays shorter wings, and the upper
mandible more curved at the top,
They are all American. The best,
known species, the hooking bird of
the United States, is about the size of
the song-thrush; the upper parts of a
dark brown ash color, the wings and
tail nearly black, the under parts
brownish white. The hooking bird
is common in almost all parts of
America, from the south of New Eng
land to Brazil; north of the Delaware,
It is only a summer visitant, but in
more southern regions it is found at all
seasons. 1t is one of the most common
birds Sf the West Indies, and its ex-
uuisite song fills their groves with
melody by night, for which reason
IL is there very generally known as
the nightingale. By day, the hooking
bird is generally initiative, excelling
all birds in its power of imitation
now taking up the song of one bird,
and now of another, and often deceiv-
ing the most practiced ear by its per-
feet performance. By night, its song
is for the most part natural.

Talks to Mothers
Mrs. Mary Wicks, Editor
Keeping Together I'm Married Life

). One Ars so much nowadays about
Husbands 1and wives growing apart
mentally. AThis growing apart men
tally may assume any of a hundred
phases. They may be subjected to
any class of differing environments
that ch4a,.e their mental standpoint
and their moral sympathy. New ideas
and new ideals may sweep old land
marks of mutual understanding far
out to sea. 1t is a sad outgrowing of
a union of love and companionship;
growing unsatisfedness where speech
that meets no sympathetic responses
iapses into silence. When sympathy
and recognition of ones ideals are
found outside the home walls, when
the instructive impulse to tell of sue
cess or failure turns to some one
else, when ears grow hungry for out
side praise, and the words of sympa-
thetic understanding fall sweetly from
other lips, there is serious danger to
the happiness of married life.
1t is so easy to keep together if
both realize the vital Importance to
all that is sweetest in life in keeping
in step in true comradeship. Talking
over tho affairs of their individual
lives and their life is common, the
hopes, the longings, the doubts, and
joys and problems give each the ba-
sis of knowledge from which most
truly to understand and advise each
other. Reading the same books, dis
cussing the same current events, hear
ing the same music, seeing the same
plays, criticising the same pictures,

our place-one-half mile, one mile
and two miles away. When they go
to school they stop at our place and
call to me so that can go with them.
So l go. We sing on our way to
school, we play games and tell each
other where we used to live before
we came out here-where we were
and what we did when we were away,
and what kind of games we were
playing and everything we know. We
played, laughed sang and talked and
we enjoyed our way TO school. We
enjoy our reading, writing and all
our other lessons at school. At dim
ner time we play games and then we
like to study and get our lessons good.

courage in driving away enemies from
the nest. Mocking birds often assem-
BILE on such occasions, and birds of
prey, far superior to them in size and
strength, are compelled to retreat.
Snakes are killed by reiterated blows
on the head, and cats learn to consid-
er the vicinity of a hooking birds
nest unsafe. The food of the mock
ing bird consists chiefly of berries and
insects. Another species of hooking
birds is found in the Rocky mountains,
and species of the same genus are
among the finest song birds of the
temperate parts of South America.
OF recent years a great many peo-
pie from the northern states have set
tied in the south. Some of them not
far from Mobile, Ala. A Mr.. Frank
Chaplin, for many years prominent
business man of Grand Rapids, Mich,
has been enjoying the environment of
outdoor life and in cultivating num-
Der of semi-tropical fruits, has found
that the hooking bird has furnished
him many amusing experiences, for
instance, in pumping water from the
we'll for the want of the necessary
lubricant, the old pump would give
forth variated, ear-splitting, nerve
racking sounds, resembling perhaps
the rear wheel of circus wagon GO
ing down steep grade with the driv-
er's foot on the brakes. Yet it was
amusing to observe how the mocking
birds would gather in the trees close
to the yard and after studying the
sounds tried and succeeded very well
in initiating the sounds of the pump,
so that finally it would seem as if the
windmill was in action all the time.
One of the pets of the place was a
very fine South American canary bird.
Mr. Chaplin occasionally hung the
cage out on the veranda and when the

agreeing on the same spiritual and
ethical plans will do much toward
making growing apart mentally an
impossibility.
This keeping in step does not mean
the sacrifice of the stronger to the
weaker, but the stronger ever,
through love, raising the weaker to
higher planes of thinking and living.
1t is not necessary that they should
even agree as the value of each
others pursuits or views, but that
they should both know them, under
stand them, and respect them, and be
lovingly tolerant where they are not
united in their sentiment or desires.
They should give ever their best and
the united strength of both should
ever be at the command of either.
When the husband is a clever, de-
lightful companion at some one else's
dinner table but sad life study in
silence at his own, he is not giving
his best at home He is retaining his
best for the export trade and reserv-
ing none for home consumption. When
the wife has charity, consideration,
and sympathy for the cares of others
outside the home, and only sharpness
and sarcasm for those inside, the time
table of that home requires instant
revision or there will be a crashing
disaster to their train of happiness.
Sources of discord multiply like Aus
tralian rabbits when the growing
apart intensifes, and it is the sacred
duty of both to prevent it and to

canary would expand its chest in a
grand effort to Guido the famous
Patti" first one hooking bird and
then another, until the branches of
the trees seemed to be alive with
their numbers. These birds would re-
main silent, with their heads sidewise
seemingly intently observing and lis
tening to the canary. When the can
airy would stop singing they would try
to initiate the same song and as if to
enjoy the situation the canary would
fly around in its cage making all kinds
of gesticulations as if it were having
the time of its life in seeing how the
hooking birds were trying to initiate
him. They would stop and again the
canary would burst forth seemingly
in greater volume than before and
again the birds seemed to be enchant-
ed with the song. This was often re-
peated to the amusement of those
who were watching the scene and it's
as likely as not that the canary bird
has got the hooking bird so trained
that he doesn't have to sing himself
only on special occasions.
Another amusing incident was of a
dog that they kept about the place.
He is one of the intelligent kind, who
could probably boast of Scotch line
age, and loved to go into the woods
and pastures and bring up the cows
and run errands generally. Whenever
they wanted Rover they usually sig
nailed by whistling and to their sur
prise the hooking birds got next to
the bugle call and SO they tried this
out on the dog themselves with the
result that the dog became lean of
figure in racing off into the woods
from one place to another answering
false alarms. 1t is needless II say that
neither man, bird nor beast can get
Rover to do anything, now.

1t does not confne itself, however.
to musical strains; it seems to take
equal pleasure in repeating the harsh
est cries of the feathered tribes: and
in domestication readily adds to it's
accomplishments the imitation of al
most any sound which it is accus-
toned to hear, passing from one to
another with great rapidity, so as to
produce an Incompatible medley. The
hooking bird readily learns to whistle
a tune, even of considerable length,
but there is no well authenticated in
stance of its initiating the human
voice. The barking of a dog, the new
ing of cat, the Growing of cock, the
cackling of hen, the creaking of a
wheelbarrow, are all within the COM
pass of its powers. During its per-
formances, it spreads its wings, ex-
pands its tail, and throws itself about,
as if full of enthusiasm and enjoy
ment.
The hooking bird is vocal at all
seasons of the year. 1t enjoys almost
everywhere the protection of man,
and often makes its nest in a tree or
bush close beside a house. Two or
three broods are produced in a year.
The male is extremely attentive to his
