Stories OF anything approaching self

moods of anger and quarrelsomeness. Yet

one OF the Aru islands The dancers"
arc all male birds, and the purpose OF
the performance appears to be TO awaken
the admiration OF the females. The func-
ton witnessed by Mr.. Wallace took place
in an immense forest tree which had
wide-spreading branches and only scat
tered leaves, so that there was plenty
Of room for the performers and a clear
view for the onlookers.
About twenty full grown birds took
part They began by raising theis wings
TO the full height. displaying the ex-
quisite colors of the long plumes and Of
the under feathers on the body. and
then kept them in constant vibration,
waving them in graceful curves. and
flying at intervals from branch to
branch, their rich plumes floating and
swaying like silken scarfs, and filling
the air with Kaleidoscope changes of
color and form.
When the plumes are appraised. says
Mr.. Wallace, they form two magnifi-
cent golden fans. striped with deep red
at the base, and fading off into the pale
brown tint of the finely divided and
softly waving points The whole bird is
then overshadowed by them. the crouch
ing body, yellow head and emerald green
throat forming but the foundation and
setting TO the golden glory which waves
above. When seen in this attitude the
bird OF paradise really deserves its name.
and must be ranked as one OF the most
wonderful living things.

BY GARRETT P. SERVES.

In his tudies of bird life, Mr. w. L.
Finley, tn ornithologist, has brought out
many most interesting and amusing pc
cularities of the inhabitants of the air
which give their family affairs a strik-
ing resemblance of those of human be-
ings These things are well illustrated
in the pictures herewith produced,
Quarreling seems to be a very common
habit in the families OF some species
of birds, and 1t is developed at a very
early age among the young. Look at the
two youthful yellowthroats exchanging
hard words and tryin gto terrify one an
other by fierce looks and threatening mo-
tions. And then, IN the next picture, see
how their quarrel is instantly composed
by the arrival Of food. But this is only
a truce. In little while the food itself
will lead to another quarrel.
In the bird empire, as in the human,
the great source of quarreling and fight
ing is greediness. Each wants the best
and the most. and wants it first. If a
single worm is brought for a nestful
there is a struggle for exclusive posses
sion. If there is a worm for each nest
ling some one will try to get two.
In the picture of the young chicadees
being fed you see the temporary com
posing effect Of satisfying hunger II
is the same old story, which nature re-
peats from the lowest 10 the highest OF
her orders of living creatures, viz, that
the first instinct of life is to perpetuate
itself by any and every means in its
power.
Food is the universal requisite. without

DON'T USE SOAP
ON YOUR HAIR

When you wash your hair, don't use
soap. Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much slkali. which
is very injurious. as IL dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing 10 use is just plain
mulsified coCosnut oil. for IL is pure
and entirely gTeaseless. It's very
cheap, and beats soaps or anything
else all 10 pieces. You can get this AZ
any drug store, and a few ounces Will
last the whole family for months.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub IT in, about teaspoonful is
all that is required. It makes an
abundance OF rich. creamy lather,
cleanses thoroughly. and rinses out
easily The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and is soft. fresh looking,
bright, FLUFFY. wsyy, and easy to
handle. Besides, 1t loosens and takes
out every particle of dust. dirt and
dandruff- advertisement.

is no great basic family difference be-

is for instance, between a Monaghan

PHASES OF MODERN JAPAN
With the Old Merging Into the New
the Change May Be Mar<ea
by Traveller.

One of the great events of these
days in the modern metropolis of
Japan, writes the special correspon-
dent of the Daily News in Tokyo,
is the formal ceremony of opening
new bridges to the public. Many
of the old historic landmarks are be-
ing gradually replaced by more mod
ern but not more picturesque struc-
lures. And bridge building is not
now attended with SO much supersti-
ton as formerly, when it was not
infrequent to insure strong fcun-
dation by burying chosen victina,.
perhaps maiden, alive under pier
of the bridge. Nowadays more SCH
entifc foundations are laid. How
ever, one interesting custom OF the
old times has not been abandoned,
and it was carried out with great
formality at the recent opening OF
the new bridge which spans the outer
moat and connects the Kojimachi
and Yotsuya wards. In the first
place the bridge had been swept 50
clean that one might almost walk
barefooted over it without soiling
ones feet. Then the procession to
cross the bridge was headed by three
couples, of whom the first couple
was the Oldest couple in Yotsuya
ward. The grandfather, aged sew
enty, and grandmother were dressed
in the old japanese ceremonial
robes; the father, aged forty-eight,
and mother were arrayed in the mod
ern japanese style, while the young
est couple Gagged twenty-fve) were
dressed in European clothes. And
therein may be seen one phase OF
the evolution of modern Japan.
