Pianos and Climate.

Because the piano is constructed Of
materials that are affected by varying
temperatures, care should be taken to
protect it as much as possible. Mois-
ture is one of the most frequent causes
of deterioration in a piano, and this
Is not to be wondered at when we con-
slider that the instrument is chiefly con-
structed of wood, cloth, skin and felt.
The three chief enemies of the piano
are damp, the sun, and draft If
the room is at all damp, the tone be-
comes dull, the wires rust; and once
rust gets hold, the tone can never be
restored. 1t is possible to get the rust
removed, but the tone will be thinner.
The temperature should not be below
30 degrees, and not over 90 degrees
Fahrenheit. This is not always posi-.
bic, but it is well to know what tenn
peratures to avoid, so that one may
keep the piano as far away from them
as circumstances permit.

keep the light from dazzling your eyes.
If they cannot get the light in an in
convenient position, any other way,
they move the bed. They always put
your books into inaccessible places.
They always put the matchbox in

place for it every day and put up a
bottle or other perishable glass thing

9. The Busy Birds.

= One form of national waste which Is
:fnr more serious than the American
people realize is result of the deplor-
able neglect to conserve bird life in
this needless and ungrateful country.
Ornitholosists and other intelligent
observers of nature who have made a
study of the subject say with the sane
ton of crop experts that insects de-
stroy One-tenth of the products of agri-
culture in the United States. Nearly
all birds destroy insect life. The fed
eral department of agriculture has
found that among the birds which
most effectively aid the farmers are
phoebes, kingbirds, catbirds, swallows,
brown thrushes, rosebreasted gros-
beaks, house wrens, vireos, native SPAR
rows, cuckoos, orioles, warblers, shore
larks, loggerhead shrikes and meadow
larks. Even the crow and the crow
