BIRD KNOWN IN EVERY STATE
Writer Suggests That the Flicker
Might Well Be Adopted as Amer,
ica's National Bird.


The alert and industrious flicker IL
suggested by Frank M. Chapman, writ
ing in "Our Winter Birds" as the ma
tional bird, because 1t is native OF
every state in the Union. He says 1t
is also adaptive and intelligent, peace
full though brave, useful and beauti-
full, but he cannot sing. The bird
makes up for his failure to contribute
vocal solos by drumming exhibitions
that any trick snare drummer would
envy. When the bird gets on a tin roof
or gutter, and is feeling facetious, IFS
work with its beak is marvellous. y
''It wins its way peaceably If 1t can,
but If 1t is aroused 1t fights for all
1t is worth" Mr.. Chapman writes. 1T
is beautiful bird, known by many 9TH
er names, such as crescent bird, be-
cause of the black crescent on its
breast; golden-winged woodpecker, be-
cause of the yellow revealed in It's
wings when it flies; the cotton rump,
because of the white on its back, and
the yarrup and yellowhamnier. Its
home is anywhere between Central
America and Canada and in character,
habits and appearance it is clearly 1

1t is impossible to contemplate the

without being struck with them, as
by far the most extraordinary and
brilliant phenomena in the history OF
the human mind. The very language,
even in its primitive simplicity, as
it came down from the rhapsodists
who celebrated the exploits OF Her
cules and Theseus, was as great a won

tongues that civilized man has spoken
are poor and feeble. and barbarous, In
comparison with 1t. It's compass and

altogether unlimited. 1t not only ex-
presses with precision all that Is

You all go out to picnic, and meet
together in some pleasant place in the
woods, and you put down the baskets
there, and leave the pail with the lee
in the handiest place you can find. and
cover it with the blanket. Then you
all set out ih the great forest. But
II is only few of the party who
choose to. start hand In hand along
gravel path which leads straight to
the well, and probably those few en-
Joy less and gain less from the days
excursion than any of the rest. The
rest break up into indifferent knots,
and go some here, some there. az
their occasion and their genius call
them. Some go after flowers, some
after berries, some after butterflies
some knock the rocks to pieces; some
climb up to where there Is a fine view,
some sit down and copy the stumps.
some go into the water, some make
a FIRE, some find q camp Of Indians
and learn to make baskets. These all
come back to the picnic camp in good
order each eager to tell what he has
seen and heard, each having satisfied
his taste and genius and each and all
having made vastly more Of their day
than If they had held to the gravel
path and walked in column to the well

WOMEN PREY OF LONELINESS
Lcndcn Writer Says That Is the Cause
of Their TireIess and Cease
less Toll

Men are amazingly and amusingiy
ignorant with respect to the mysterious
life led by their mothers, wives, daugh-
tiers and aunts. For years at time a
man may go on blindly with his work
and his play and remain in total ignO-
rance about the activities of these mex
plicable beings. He is dimly and dubi-
Ously aware that they are not idle. In
his paroxysms in intuition he guesses
that his comfort and even his happi-
ness ia some fashion may depend upon
their labors. But the greater part OF
his existence is passed in a sublime
ignoring of all the immense miracles
wrought by women every day of his
life.
/ have come to the conclusion that
women are the loneliest of Gods crea-
lures, and that their loneliness is the
great first cause of their tireless and
ceaseless toll, James Douglas writes In
London Opinion. Nearly every woman
goes about with aslOnely look on her
face and the older she grows theslone-
lier she looks. There are very few
lonely men, for men are gregarious.I
They are also, upon the whole. less
Imaginative than women. They live
more on the surface. They do not pos
sess that quality of power of living a
secret Inner life OF contemplation and
,broodlngry retrospective passion. Men
live. in and for the hour; woman lives
in and for the past and the future.
They are at war with their environ
ment. Like Norah in 1.-THE Dolls
House they are always waiting for
the miracle to happen. One seldom
sees the print Of tragic intensity on
mans face. One seldom sees anything
else on woman's. 1t is this yelled
tumult of the soul that drives women
into frantic and feyerish labors.
