The Most virtuouc of Birds.

Storks, according to some ancient
writer's (they can hardly be called au-
thOrities), are the most virtuous and
domestic Of birds. One of them, Friar
Bartholomew, says: "While the female
liveth, the male keepeth truly to her
In nest. And If male espy, in any
wise, that the female hath broke
,ousehead, she shall no more dwell
with him, but he beateth and striketh
hel with his bill, and slayeth her If he
may" The same writer remarks that
storks, in their oversee migrations, are
conveyed by crows, who withstand
with IL their might fowls that hate
storks." An engaging characteristic
attributed to these birds that they
"nourish their parents when oppressed
with age."-London Chronicle

Lion Roars, Instead of
Purring, Because a Bone
in His Throat Is Loose

One of the most interesting discov-
cries made lately is that of Sir Rich
ard Owen that the lion rOars, instead
of purring, simply because the hyoid
bone in his throat is loose.
In the cat this bone is stationary, so
that the cat purrs and cannot roar, but
In the lion and tiger the hyoid Is
loose, and therefore even when calling
to their mates the larger members of
the cat family roar. The roars of the
jaguar and leopard are like "hoarse,
barking coughs, an interval of about
one second separating the exploratory
efforts" says this observer They may
be easily reproduced or initiated by
saving a piece of thin board with a
coarse-toothed saw. The cheetah, how,
ever, calls with a decided NEW, very
much like that of the cat. -

For Its Size, Sting of
Bee Is Most Effective
Internal Machine Known

In proportion to it's size, the sting of
the honeybee is probably the most eff
fective Internal machine in existence,
says the Popular Science Monthly.
The singing apparatus is smaller than
that of rattlesnake, yet a single sting
has been known to kill a man. When
we realize that it is almost invisible,
and consider what it can do, we cannot
fail to be astounded. 1t seems the
very quintessence of deyilishness.
The honeybee's sting is complicated
so complicated that many words and
much ink have been used in discussing
it's construction and use. 1t is gener-
ally conceded that the sting consists
of three parts, the principal one being
a sheath within which move two barb
ed lancets. Like the barbs of fish
hook, the lancets are not easily ex-
tracted from the flesh into which they
have been driven. The sheath and the
lancets combined form hollow tube
through which the poison flows from
the poison sac Two hairy, soft pro-
jections, evidently very sensitive, in
form the bee when she is in contact
with a stiGgable object.

Wise and Otherwise.

Poker keeps more men awake nights

And kissing is responsible for good
deal of heart trouble.
Patriotism doesn't always depend on
the size Of your country.

ally, but his rent goes on just the
same.
Taxpayers do not have to settle for

tons.
Silence is golden when a girl purses
her lips for the benefit of a young
man.
After fortune knocks at mans door
he may be able to prove an alibi-

Joys and Trials Of Daddy's Life

If his son goes off for weeks hike
with companions and telegraphs him

self and the girls marry. He soon
finds that his worries have just be-
gun. An old head cannot be put on
young, inexperienced shoulders. The
boys find it an easy matter to go
through funds their father worked so
hard for.
His air castles regarding helpful
sonS-in-law take a tumble when he
finds he has just SO many more added
to his family to support. He is told
that each and every one will make
good in time. This seldom, if ever
happens, in daddys time, or by their
own efforts. He gets good deal of
comfort out of admiring his children
and building hopes for them. That's
about all the joy he gets out of being
a daddy. OF course they love him af-
ter their own fashion. That's one con-
ISOLATION. Yet, after all, why should
daddy complain? The thought that he
is making his loved ones, and theirs,
happy is the greatest happiness of his
life.

marrying Parson' Lays
Down Set of Ten Rules to
Guide Husband Seeker

"Shun the rouge pot, copy the
cat, avoid witticism and keep
silent like clam" is the advice
given to marrying girls by Rev.
John II. Pierce, the marrying
parsonn of Oakland, Cal, who
has welded 1000 couples in his
lifetime. Rev. Mr.. Pierce has
laid down the following ten
rules for feminine guidance:
l. Plan your campaign with
the wisdom of the serpent, con-
ceal it with the silence of
clam, execute it with the STRAIT
egg of n Machiavelli.
2. Avoid all witticism about
marriage.
3. Veil with alluring helpless
ness the iron of self-sutliciency.
4. When n man declares 81
shall never marry" mark him
for easy prey.
5. Be inwardly bold as a lion;
outwardly timid as a young
fawn.
6. The lOudest flattery Is the
silence of attention. When he
speaks. listen. 1t is incense to
his pride.
7. Shunt the rouge pot and
powder puff, for many maid
has lost out by sailing under
false colors.
s. Pick out Il chemical aflin-
ity. Remember, oil won't mix
with water, but it will with
myrrh.
9. Copy the eat. for 1t is
squeezable; and the dove, for it
COOS caressingly and the whip
poorwill, for it seems elusive.
10. Remember that the SUI
preme test of n man is a kiss.
If he will not yield under its
pressure, scorn him; he is either
brute or an idiot.

Worship the heart lifts above
The heavens reject not
TIL desire of the moth for the star,
OF the night for the morrow
TIL devotion to something afar
From the sphere of our sorrow.
While the world and his wife cheer
the man with large family of chill
dren, nobody knows save daddy how
much 1t costs to keep the family up in
the way it thinks it ought to live when
the boys and girls have grown up.
If the son is taken into daddy's of
fee, he expects quite as much salary
as a competent person would receive.
No matter how urgent the call of duty
may be, he takes it upon himself to
throw down his pen, shut up his led
ger and HE off to the race track if he
takes notion. Daddy would call him
strictly to account if he dared, but
the boy has his mother and the whole
family at his back. Mother would far
rather take tongue flashing herself
than to have it administered to the
darling of her heart.
AS for the girls, they are law unto
themselves. They want large house,
fine clothes, an automobile and serv-
ants. His wife tells him coldly that
he should have expected he'd have
all these things to do when he became
daddy. He cannot enjoy his porch
on a hot night. Every inch of space
is occupied by young girls and young
chaps. He is told that he shouldn't
want to sit on the porch and interfere
with their young company.
