keeps up this song until family cares
descend upon him. In May his demure
little wife Is buSily engaged in con-
structing thatched cottage in clump
of grass. 1t is dome-shaped. with a
hall leading to the nursery. From four
to six white eggs. well speckled with
browns and purples. are carefully
placed in a cradle we'll lined with fine
grass. 1t is almost impossible to find
this cleverly hidden home, but meadow
mice and snakes beat a smooth path
to it and rob the mother of her eggs
and often her babies.
Father meadowlarks are IL inches
long. They are dressed in browns, tans
and buffs on wings and back The
bright yellow necklace joins a hand
some black vestee. Pale yellow deco
rates the chest, shading into buffy
brown and very dark brown The outer
tail feathers are chiefly white and may
be seen when the bird is flying The
sturdy legs. spreading feet and long
claws adapted for walking give this bird
many advantages. His long, sharp
black beak acts as handy drill when
he goes after juicy grub or worm try
ing to escape him. His brow is low but
his /. @. is high. Above his bright eyes
there is a yellow streak and a black one
seems to run through them.
Because this bird ranks high as a
pest eradicator, many States have
passed laws protecting him. His dinner,
supper and breakfast and even after
noon tea consists of wire worms, grass
hoppers. grubs, cutworms and stink
bugs. In fact, every small thing that
creepeth after our vegetables.
After his three sets of children have
been raised he joins his companions

long silence seems to be somewhat
impaired. The brilliant Spring suit is
now changed for more somber one in
keeping with the coming Winter sea-
son.
After his relatives depart for the
South he takes up with the horned
larks that stroll along the shores or
snow buntings and sparrows of the in

ment of things is matched with his
own that he Is able to afford them.
Some girls do marry for material
purposes, and once married they are
often heartless spenders. They have
no concern about their husbands future
and they spend and waste generously
and thoughtlessly. Usually man knows
if he will think and reflect when a girl
marries him for what there is in it
for her" Such a marriage Is imprac-
tical and unwise
Not infrequently young men mislead
their fiancees as to the state of their
financial condition or their business
position. Sometimes they conceal the
true facts after marriage, and a young
bride may be living beyond her hus-
