A charming blush suffused the face
of the girl. To cover it she asked what
he meant by "a killing"
"Why, sverlastingly watching my
rivals in business, catching them nap
ping and swooping down upon them
like-like that kingfisher chap over
there-and coming home with the
spoils." AS he spoke, prompted by an
instinct he didn't stop to analyze, one
hand gently detached itself from the
hand of the girl and sought his watch.
With start an arm was withdrawn

But why need you go SO soon?" tho
girl objected.

The girl gazed up at the glowing
countenance of her prince and many
things ran through her mind in the
second that she hesitated. He had
felt a need for food, with his arm
around her! He had killed innocent
living creatures, even as the kingtlsher
had, and the marsh hen-but not.
thank goodness, not like the crab!
And he had killed them for her-be'
cause he loved her!
After all, what did it matter! There
were many things she didn't under
stand, and nothing mattered but that
"He loved her." The girl sprang up
with a happy smile.

BROUGHT JOY TO ROOSEVELT
Companion Tells Of coloneps Joy IN
UnIooked-For Discovery In the
Bird World.

Roosevelt's intense eagerness over
any new discovery in the bird world
is Interestingly described by John NJ.
Parker, who once entertained the COZ.
onel on camping trip along the Gull
coast Of Mississippi and Louisiana.
One day they discovered one OF those
queer birds known as the bull bat, ana
the colonel was greatly excited ABOUT
it. Here Is the way that MIR. Parker
describes the incident: " -
"One day my sons were running
around on a little island, and presently
began waving for us to come over.
We Immediately answered: When we
got close to them we saw them point
ing to a bird on the ground, blended
so we'll with oyster shells and debris
that it was almost invisible unless you
watched closely. They motioned to
the colonel to step up to the bird, and
as he did so it flew of the nest, fut.
tering along the way as great many
birds do, Stimulating being badly
wounded or crippled in order to lead
us away from its nest. It was bull
bat, or night hawk, and as the col
onel glanced at the nest he remarked:
BY jove, this bird is Matching now.
"Herbert K. Job, the nearest and
possibly the most famous bird pho
tographer in the world; came In an
swer to our call and fixed up his old
green shade from under which he
made some wonderful pictures both
of the bird returning to the nest, and
then how he scared her off the nest.
He made pictures of the two little bull
bats breaking the shell of the egg, and
to see the eggs divide was wonderful;
~ interesting. Mr..Job photographed
them with patience and with total
disregard of mosquitoes. ~.
''The evening we returned to Pass
Christian the colonel went around my
yard with great deal Of interest, and
announced that he had found nests of
q varieties of birds. One in partic-
ular interested him very much-ths
crested fly catcher. told him that
the bird had nested there since I had
had the place, and that only a few
days before had raised an entire brood
Of young ones, which were now flying
around the yard. He Immediately ask
ed me whether I had ever investigated
the nest carefully myself. told him
no and asked why. He stated that he
had never found a single nest Of .
crested fly catcher that did not have
in It q shed skin Of snake and said
that he would like very much to see
whether this nest way down on the
Gulf of Mexico could be an exception.
We got ladder and took the nest
out. Instead of having one skin In It,
there were two, to his very, great de-
light and joy."-Tulsa World.

President Wilson's letter addressed
to Mr.. Glass follows:

we should withhold from those people
who are in such mental and physical
distress the assistance which can be
rendered by making available on credit
small proportion of our export
able surplus Of food, which would al
leviate the situation.

Observation-Disclosures of Il wide

tion among the farmers of the country
so threatening as likely to disturb the
existing economic structure. is conSid-
cred by government officials To be re-
vealed in more than forty thousand
replies TO QUESTIONABLE recently sent

The replies as thus far digested
were summarized in report prepared
by George L. Wood, superintendent of

ter general. The views of the farm
ers were obtained by the broadcasting
of 100000 copies of queStionnaire
throughout the agricultural states

postoffice department might aid in
cutting down the cost of living.

been coming in since the middle of
December at the rate of a thousand
a day, and while a small percentage of
them are from well-satisfied farmers
having no suggestions TO make. the
great proportion. as summarized by
officials, show the major complaints
of the farmers in numerical order to
be:
Inability to obtain labor to work on
the farms, hired help ana the farmers
children having been lured TO the city /
by higher wages and easier living.
High profits taken by middlemen .
for the mere handling of food pro-
ducts; and,
Lack of proper agencies of contact

consumer.
