A NEST HARD TO FIND.
Remarkable and Artistic Home of the
Humming Bird.
The home of the bumming bird is
one of the most remarkable and artistic
creations of all bird architecture. It 14
a tiny, delicate cup, made of the soft-
est plant down, saddled upon some
rather slender branch so deftly that it
seems a part thereof. The saliva of
the birds 13 used to compact and secure
the material and likewise to coat the
exterior with the gray green lichens
sogenerally found upon
trees. This
makes it so assimilate with the sur-
roundings that it 1s a very difficult ob-
ject to discover. And thereby hangs n -
tale. A gentleman had told me that
if I would call upon him he would
show me an occupied neat of a hum-
ming bird In his orchard. When I
came. be was out of town, but 1
thought I would see 1f I could not find
the nest myself. So I made inspection
from tree to tree, and present], the fe-
male hummer began to fiy about me
anzionely. We played a game of hot
and cold until it became evident that
the nest must be in a certain low apple
tree which had many dead, lichen co,
eyed brancbes. Some of these came
down nearly to the ground, and toy
quite awhlle I stood by the tree, run-
ning my eyes along each branch in or
der, trying to make out the nest, wbile
the female kept darting frantically n!
my head. It must have been nearly n
quarter of an hour before I dlscos'eted
that I was standing almost touching
the nest with my hands, baring been
looking right over it all the time. 11

the early part of June. The branch

THE SMALLEST SCREWS.
To the Naked Eye They Look Lik•
Specks of Dust
The smallest screws in the world are
those made In watch factories. They
are cut from steel wire by a machine,
but as the chips fall from the knife it
looks as if the operator was simply
cutting up the wire for his own di-
version. One thing 1e certain -no
screws can be seen, and yet a screw
is made by every third operation.
The fourth jewel wheel screw is
next to invisible, to the naked eye re-
sembling n speck of dust. With n
`lass, however, It can be made out
quite distinctly. It has 260 threads tc
an inch. These little screws aro four
one -thousandth of an incb in diam-
eter, and the heads are double In sise.
It bas been estimates) that an ordinary
thimble would hold 100,000 of them.
About 1.000,000 of them are mann
each:wed In the courao of n month.
