the brain is occupied the stronger it's lobes be-
come.
Out of the combined activity of the brain and
body grows character and for its stone is the
strength and dignity Of labor. Judge Payne, an
eminent jurst, in paper on the subject OF labor,
said that dleness contributed to the crimes of
the world than any other cause and that denes had
cost humanity billions and billions of dollars through
energy which not used.
Be energetic. Get up and hustle Show peo-
pie about you that you have activity Master
book, or trade or a science, and throw your whole
soul into work. Perform your labor WELL Don't
leave anything to guesswork. Be where you
are at, ard then keep hammering the job until
you have mastered it.

A pair of robins built a nest under the caves OF
The Mirror office this spring, and for the past few
days they seemed to be more busy than usual pull
ing angeworms out of the ground and flying up to
the with them-a sign that the family had
increased. Today (Frday) two of the youngsters
came to the conclusion that the nest too small
and narrow place for them TO be confined in any
longer and tumbled to the ground below.
After exercising their wings for awhile the
ground they managed to work up enough strength
to fly to the bars the cell hall windows from
which place they could get fine view of the world
spread out before them, and also. no doubt where
they would be in better position to attract the at
tenton of their parents when they became hungry
for more fat angeworms which is about every other
minute. Whether angleworms becoming
and going IN price along With all the rest OF the
foodstuffs, we cannot say but, while robins do not
object the sparrows roaming around their
private preserves, probably realizing that sparrow
don care much for angleworms anyway, they do
object to- certain other classes of birds coming into
the yard, for instance A bold shiny blackbrd
flew over the wall the other day and aghted this
particular pair of robins private hunting grounds.
One of the robins spied him and made Decline
drive straight at him. The blackbird ducked his
head and appeared to be frightened. but the robin
flew over and lit close to him and stood there watch
ing Mr.. Blackbird with baleful CLEAN in his eye,
which appeared to make the blackbird nervous
that he flew away. Now, whether the blackbrd
had come in to help himself to the angleworm crop
is uncertain. for the usual food of blackbird is
grain. when it is to be had but it apparent that
the robin took exceptions to him being there, and
also, the blackbird is notorious thief who would
rather steal than work for his living the robin who
honest, selfrespectng bird, and like all honest,
hard working beings, have a natural dislike toward
all those who make their living off the toll of others,
probably didn't want Mr.. Backbird IN his nelghbor-
hood for that reason, and persuaded him to leave.
