true and good TO one another all
through their bird lives.
HE will tell Of the devotion Of
robins and thrushes. Of swallows and
of the herons and Of the hawks and
the buzzards. He will tell how seldom
1t is that there are quarrels in the Bird
families. He will tell, too, how loving
the doves are to one another through
out their bird lives, and II little Mrs.
Dove should lose her beloved mate
she will not take another mate but Will
mourn her whole life through.

about birds and the feathered erea-
lures, perhaps. they Will want to be
nicer still to birds and will want to
protect them all they can.
"The bluebirds and the kingfishers
put on airs and act very fond of them
selves at times, but they, too. are good
mates. And the parrots for all their
shrieking and yelling are so devoted in
their home lives It is beautiful to
see the devotion that birds show.
"Some Of the birds from abroad
have different ways and are quite
curious. The keeper says that there
IS SnIpe family abroad and that the
Miss Snlpes court the Mr.. SnIpes IN
stead of-the other way around as It
should be. That certainly shows lack
Of dignity and should also think lack
of charm.
"Surely a Miss Snipe with charm
would not have to do anything like
that.
"But after they mate Mr.. Snipe sits
on the eggs and is a regular home

The Button Quail family are the same
way and Miss Button Quail will actual

him to be her mate,
"That certainly Is queer Perhaps IL
is because they have no hind toes. I've
heard that they hadn't hind toes.
But now I've told all I've heard the
keeper say and hope my language
can be understood"
Billie Brownie. who had been listen

cause Of the way Mother Nature had
given him the power to understand her
children.

nicely the right degree OF servIlity

And yet tonight James, the immac-

were served in their wrong order, wine
was split and, as a final blow, salt was
upset upon a very superstitious and
important old man.
Anything wrong James?r the host
had inquired soon after the dinner
started.
"No, sir" calamity answered the old
servant.

had retired to the drawing room he
begged q, word with the host.

decreed that the privilege should be

Inquiries for copper roofing 10 be

anese cities have been made Of the
Copper and Brass Research assocla-
ton. 1t is understood that these in
quIries are from sources representing
the Japanese government. Except for
modern American construction in
Tokyo and Yokohama, all houses were
rooted entirely with large, handmade
clay tile. These made very heavy
roof which, when the earthquake ire
mors first came. cnused heavy casual.
ties by falling on the fleeing people in
the streets and BY their weight
brought about complete collapse Of
many houses which might otherwise
have resisted the earthquake shocks.
1t is understood that the japanese
government has already issued an or.
der forblddlng the use Of heavy roofing
materials and is endeavorlng to obtain
roofing Of the lightest possible weight,
which is Of the same time fireproof
and earthquake proof.
The attention Of their experts has
been drawn TO the possibilities of con-
per roofing. in view of its light weight
