 The fickers habit of pecking holes in buildings sometimes greatly annoys his human friends, and it is particular ly noticeable in the California species. Observation has shown that the object of the work is to obtain shelter for the winter. In the east most of the flick CTS are migratory, and only a few re- main north, where shelter is necessary.

Game of Fisherman,

If there is large table at hand all sit around it to play the game of fish, erman. One of the players is armed with a short stick, to which piece of twine is attached, the twine being tied in a loop at one end. The fisherman drops his line in such a way that the loop lies on the table about in the cen- ter.
 When he says Whose flsh?' all the players place the tip of one finger 6ore- finger of the right hand) on the table inside of the circle formed by the twine. Then the fisherman calls, "My fish," and the fingers must be with drawn before the fisherman pulls in his line. This must be done quickly or fingers will be caught. Each fish caught counts one for game, and the number constituting game should be decided upon before beginning to play. Each player should have his turn as fisherman.

How Aeroplane AvIators sIanal.

There has been tried in France an
apparatus for signaling from aero
planes used In the war, consisting Of
reservoir of lampblack, which is
connected with a supply of compressed
air,
The aviator, by means OF valve
within reach Of his hand, can blow
out a cloud OF iampblack of size
varying according to the length Of
pressure Of his hand upon the valve.
These small clouds can be seen rom
q distance Of six miles, and the move
ment of the aeroplane spaces them suf-
ficiently to prevent them running to-
gether.
BY the use OF the Morse code II Is
an easy matter to send signals IN this
way from an aeroplane, and in add.
ton It saves the necessity of a wire
less receiving station. which ID often
difficult to operate during a campaign.

New York, March &C. H. Can
by, president Of the Chicago Board
Of Trade who will testify today be-
fore New York states probe into she
bread and wheat situation, denied
that a wheat corner is responsible
for the high prices Of wheat flour and
bread.
He said the law of supply and de
mand Is the sole and only factor,
the truth being that all European ma
tions are demanding American wheat
with the result that Americans have
to bid against Europe for 1t.
Any speculation there might have
been was but drop in the bucket
compared with this demand, he said
He added that there is no danger
of shortage in this country and the

GREATEST THING IS LIBERTY
Nothing That Man 10 Capable Of
Achieving Can Ever Take
lts Place.

In one Of the finest passages in Les
Miserables,' Marius, the young aristo-
crat who has become converted to
what he thinks are liberal ideas, is Ell.
logizing Napoleon. He recites the Cor.
sican's wonderful genius and unpar
alleled achievements, points out the
glory" which he brought to France
and asks dramatically what could be
grander than the imperial regime. A
quiet youth Of the little revolutionary
group raises his head and answers:
ITO be free!'
It Is well to recall this remark now,
when the gospel of efficiency" is
usurping the place of the law and the
prophets.
Efficiency Is q fine thing. in public
matters as well as In private ones.
But It is better to be free than to be
efficient, better to blunder in liberty
than to achieve a machinelike exact
ness under the orders Of expert au-
tocrats."
Through all the ages men have
sought some elixir that would keep na-
tons alive and worthy. Only one has
ever been found, and that is liberty.
Other talismans work for time, only
to fail when most needed or to ex.
act q price which makes success q
loss. Liberty alone remains OF per.
nanent value.-Chicago Journal

There Is no language so beautiful as
our own English tongue, when 1t is
spoken beautifully. II is wonderful
possession; but like many other things
which we have always had, we under
estimate 1t and abuse 1t until 1t is de-
preciated. One Of the chief ways In
which we mistreat our language Is In
over-accenting our words. Foreigners
are always quick to notice this. They
find 1t hard to understand us because
we bring out the one syllable that Is
accented and slur all the others. AS
they say, we bang out" the accent,
but care nothing about the rest of the
word. By this fault. of which near
ly all Americans are guilty. the lam
guage Is robbed of its harmonious
flow, as well as Of intelligibility. 1t
is always noticeable that persons Of
most culture speak most distinctly,
and this is a mark of breeding that
everyone can try for. To speak clear
ly, giving each word its correct value.
indicates q certain amount of knowl
edge, while the opposite way of
speech is often an index of slovenly
habits Of thought, II not illiteracy.

One of the latest and most hopeless,
we should think, is the International

use as living language" The time
seems unpropitious for such ven

to us rather full of more interesting
matters. Still, we doubt not, the de-

urge that the adoption of Latin as a
world language may hasten the day
when war will be impossible. It Is
certain that the movement-if It ever
moves-will be hitched up to the wal

AMUSING HOSPITAL SITUATION.

An amusing situation has developed
in British hospitals as result of the
large number of young women who
have taken to nursing wounded sol;
diers in a way more sentimental than
practical TOO sick to be nursed to-
day." Is said to have been a placard
placed over the bed of soldier wound
ed in the South African campaign, and
something of the sort seems to be
needed now. The trained nurses pro-,
test that young women Of means and
social influence who have swarmed
into the hospitals do more harm than
good by "fussing over" patients. The
matter has been brought officially to
the war office by the organized train
ed nurses who number about 5000.
One trained nurse said that IL Lord
Kitchener had called for 100000
nurses instead OF 100000 men for mill
tary duty, he would have had that
number the next morning. In view Of
the fact that many trained nurses are
quite as pretty as the volunteers and
are also much more competent, a
wounded soldier is not to be blamed
for desiring one who is useful as well
as ornamental, says birmingham Age
Herald. Lord Knutsford stated in a
letter to the London Times that un-
trained nurses would be more accept
able II they would be photographed
less, would wear their uniforms more
modestly, would talk less in public
about their patients and would not be
quite so aggressive.
