are only harsh and gutteral. They have
no domestic sentiments. They never
pair, never build nor have nests of their
own. but yagrantIy deposit their eggs in
nests of other birds and impose upon
them the burden of Matching, feeding and
caring for their young.
These birds inhabit pastures and fol-
low in the wake Of cows, feeding Hpon
insects that they stir up in stamping
and grazing over the fields. When the
cows lie down to take their midday maps
their followers light upon their sides and
wait for them to resume the work of the
afternoon.
The different families of songsters diff
fer widely in their characteristics. No
other birds are like bobolinks, which en-
iven our meadows with their wonder
full songs, plumage and antics in the air,
and at the end OF the season go South,
where they are transformed into rice
birds in plainest dress and without a
song, and then in the spring return to
their summer haunts real bobolinks
again.
Do birds think, reason, remember? In
locating and building their nests they
seem to calculate like an architect. They
seem to reason about localities that will
furnish them food. They must remember
tie places where for many successive
Years thew have made their summer
homes. John Burroughs said it was

lot of thinking When the starting, in
an assumed friendly manner, walks be-
side the robin, and, when the latter pulls
up a big angleworm, snatches it from
him. it IS the result of thought, of cal
culation.

BIRD NOTES BY
LOCAL OBSERVER
Interesting Facts Concerning Robins
COwbirtIs Which Lately Have Been
Seen Here and Others

An interesting incident in the life of
songbirds is their pairing in springtime
We notice it most in robins. because
they are tame and appear in many OF our
front yards. The catbrdS are tame but
shyer in thcir habits. The love-maklng OF
robins, especially by the male, is ardent,
and when he has won his mate he IS all
devotion to her. He lends his wisdom
to the selection of q place for their nest,
rejecting several before the right one is
found. and then is industrious in find
ing and carrying materials for its con-
struction. his mate being more active in
arranging materials-in furnishing the
home.
During the period of incubation the
male is a model of patience and devotion.
but his real industry is displayed when
the young ones appear. lie has to be
busy for no young family was ever more
insatiably hungry than a family of
young robins. From dawn till eve their
beakS are wide open for food. The
neither, of course, does something for
their support. but she has to brood them
and look after their general bringing M
and must rely on the pater familias for
family maintenance.
An observer once found that a robin
averaged to make a trip for food and re-
turn every 10 minuteS-about 10 trips
m the working hours of a day. As a re
suit the young ones grow rapidly, and
if all goes well they are succeeded by a
second and frequently by a third hatch.
The Young ones are carefully fed and
protected until they are well grown. and
then the entire family relation and af-
fectiCn seems to terminate. The old
and young in the neighborhood form
focks and fly away to pastures where
wild berries are To be found.
It is fortunate that they are omniver-
o1s. for the earthworms and insects OF
the gardens and lawns cannot supply the
wants of their multitudes. The wild
berries are consumed by the time cold
weather comes. and then, the family ties
having degenerated into mere tribal re-
Iations. they go swiftly in flocks to Q
warmer climate where they find food
shifted to their wants, and where. alas
TOO many of them furnish food in the
form of birds on toast" in hotels and
restaurants. But many will return with
the spring to cheer US by their presence
and songs.
Small flocks of ccwbirds have lately
been seen in the village. They are trinity
built. have long bills and long tails, color
of male shining black on head neck ant
shoulders. then fading into a rich brown
The females are handsome brown. They
are little more than three-fourths the
size of robins and are SO elegant in form
and color it is a pity that they have not
more refined habits and have voices thai

One Of Great Ctty's raoedies.

An old-time tragedy Of the Central
Markets, Paris, has been recalled by
the death ut an advanced age Of a
once rich woman, who for many years
made a poor living there overturning
garbage cans and Selling anything Of
value she might be able to find there
in. Her name was unknown, and for
nearly half century she was merely
called princess" Fifty years ago it
was fashionable for persons Of high
society in Paris to pass riotous night
In the cafes and stalls Of the market.
On one occasion fashionable woman,
one Of gay party, was robbed Of
money and Jewels, presumably by her
escort. Left penniless, she refused,
for reasons easily surmisable, to COM
nunicate with her husband or her
family in central France. Instead she
sought employment and gradually fell
into extreme poverty. She got her nick
name owing to her invariable habit,
when asked about her former life, Of
replying: ASK no questions; I am
princess from far country"

Now, while the Hogs valued the no

that there was about $4,000 worth Of

that Mrs. Hogg had put all the jewelry

crash was followed by another.

SHIPS THAT FATTEN SAILORS
Modern "Tankers" Are Now Blamed

Shipping experts continue to argue
regarding the advantages of oil fuel
over coal. At presents the question
Is occupying the attention of medical
men.
The adverse effect Of oil fuel upon
such surfaces as steel, canvas. rope
and other shipping accessories are
widely known; ships doctors are now
divided on the question Us to whether
1t is harmful or beneficial in its effect
upon sailors, a writer in London Tit
Bits states.
Sailors on oil-fed vessels are fattef
and plumper than those who work on
cOal-fed ships. Some naval surgeons
declare that the fattening effect is pro-
duced by the slight fumes exuded by
the dormant oil fuel; others ridicule
the suggestion, and maintain that the
former are fat simply because they
have less work to do. ~
"Ccaling ship" Is one Of the finest
exercises in the world for reducing
superfluous flesh. 1t is hard work that
has to be maintained at high speed all
day. Ships vie with each other in get
tihg their coal aboard in record time,
and even after the operation is finished
the sailors still have a few more
ounces of avoirdupois to work Off in

King Louis XIII Of France, perhaps
because he was the thirteenth king Of
that name, regarded the number with
the greatest possible reverence. He
called himself Luys de Bourbon and his
wife Anna d'Autriche, for the reason
that each Of those names contained
Just 19 letters. The two were mar
ried at the age Of thirteen, and
throughout his reign the king invaria-
bly, selected the thirteenth day Of the
month for any great enterprise which
he was undertaking. Even on his
