BACHELORS.

A bachelor is a man who comes
home late on a cold, dark night and
gets a warm ard ELUSIVE welcome
from the hat rack.
When a man has arrived at the
age of thirty without evincing the
slightest interest in the cost of liv-
ing, at the icreasing righteousness
of millinery, he may properly be
called a bachelor. Bachelors are of
two kinds-self-made and girl-made
The first kind is a man who is too
foolish to marry. The second kind
is produced by women who are too
wise to marry. Owing to the incon-
ceivable tender heartedness and
medicines of women, the first va
riety is by far the most numerous.
Bachelors live alone as rule, but
are kept in a passable state of re-
pair by their landladies. They are
very hardy and will eat almost any
thing. If you are in doubt as to
whether man is bachelor or not,
invite him to dinner. If he accepts
with q hungry look In MS eyes, ne
is either bachelor or a man with a
peripatetic wife. Then set before him
a piece of fried shoe upper. If he
eats it without remark and grabs his
coffee cup about the waist instead
of by the handle, you can safely bet
that he is bachelor from the light
ming lunch belt.
Bachelors are most attractive be-
tween the ages of thirty and forty,
during which time they are in an
excellent state of preservation and
are able to dodge heiresses and cho-
rus girls, matrimonialIy speaking,
with ease and skill. Between forty
and fifty, the bachelor becomes more
pensive and cannot imagine why
young girls of eighteen are so unani
mously elsewhere when he calls.
From fifty onward bachelors are OBJ

THE SAME OLD STORY.

This month verdict of not guilty

sent a bullet crashing through the

EAT INSECT PESTS
BIRDS ARE REAL FRIENDS OF
THE AeRIcuLTuRIsT.
Investigations Have Proved Beyond All
Doubt That Feathered Creatures
Take High Place in Ranks Of
Farmers Helpers.

There seems never to have been q
time when Americans as a people were
giving SO much thought to birds as
now. The sentimental virtues of birds
and their economic uses are being writ
ten of frequently and extensively by
professional and amateur biologists
and ornithoiogists, and even vast
number of bird observers Of perhaps
limited professional or technical at
tainments in this department of SCI
ence are writing and talking at length
In behalf of the birds.
The discussion of the economic val
ues of birds Is one of the questions Of
serious Importance to the whole coun-
try. 1t has been pointed out by students
of this subject that tree swallows
stomach recently examined contained
40 chinchbugs and fragments of many
others, besides ten other species Of in
sects. The stomach of a bank swallow
showed that it contained So cotton boil
weevils, one Of the very dangerous and
destructive insect pests Of the United
States. Thirty-five cliff swallows had
eaten an average of IS boil weevils
each. Two stomachs Of pine siskins
from California contained 10 black
olive scales and 800 plant lice. The
stomach of a kildeer taken in Texas
contained more than 800 larvae. A
fiicker's stomach held % big grubs. A
night hawks stomach contained "a
May beetles, the adult form of the
white grub. A New York night hawk
had eaten "a clOver-leaf weevils and
357 ants and another night hawk, $40
grasshOppers,. 81 bugs, three beetles,
two wasps and spider. A big-tailed
grackle taken in Texas had eaten in
one meal about 100 cotton boil weevils,
besides other insects. A ring-neck
pheasant, bird which the state of
New York is taking great interest in
propagating, showed upon examination
of the crop that 1t contained 5000
seeds of chickenweed and dandelipn
head. More than 1900 seeds have been
found in single ducks stomach taken
in Louisiana.
The Investigations by the United
States biological survey and the bio
logical and agricultural bureaus of the
various states leave no room for doubt
that birds play an important relation
to agricultural interests. though there
often seems tendency to dwell on the
harm that even much-despised Eng
lish sparrow has its part to perform
in protecting the agricultural Interests

OF the United States, and the bureau
Of the biological survey has given a
great deal of attention to this much
abused bird. 1t has collected them
from all parts of the United States
and made an examination of 1000
stOmachs, the results showing that
during the colder half of the year the
food of these birds consists almost en-
tirely of seeds of weeds.
1t has been estimated by entomolo-
gists that the annual loss caused In
the United States by insects is $780,
100000 and that were it not for birds
the loss would be much greater. Care
full students have said that without the
aid Of our feathered friends successful
agriculture would be impossible. The
