Treeless Falkland isIa nds.

There are no trees in the Falkland
islands. consequently the country pre-
sents a bleak appearance. In the
autumn the long grass. turning some
what grayish, imparts a disagreeable
and monotonous aspect to the hillside.
On the return of spring the ranchers
used to have a glorious time Of it in
literally setting the camp on fire. This
was done by simply striking match
on the saddle pommel and casting it
into the midst of the withered grass
No coaxing was needed as the mate
rial was withered and dry as tinder
Presently the mountain side would be
fringed with one long line of raging
flames and curling smoke Thus was
the pasture renewed. Although no
trees grow in these islands. there Is
ample evidence of the land having once
been thickly wooded. Jour

To Color PIurnea.

Black plumes which have become
rather dingy may be wonderfully
freshened at home. They should be
held over the mouth of a kettle filled
with boiling water, shaken and .fluffed,
Then they should be removed and
dried.
If they are rather limp and without
backbone, a thin satin wire may be
sewed on the under side out to the tip,
and this will support the. feather In
the desired position on the hat. In
curling them it must be remembered
that partially uncurled plumes are
much more popular this year than the
tightly curled ones.
Lisht-colored plumes may also be
tinted with benzine and tube paint,
but this Uniting is only successful in
the very light shades. =.
