Doris Mayhew lives in the real team tiny There are no street -oars within miles of her ]tome, and she can jest see the roof el the bousc of their neur- al. neighbor. There are fields and pastures all abed and at seine little distance back of the bousc is a Thickly wooded hillside, where ninny gray squirrels make their home and where loxes have been sten. There are no children, but Doris does not lack playmates, for when she was a very small girl, not quite four years old, she begun to make friends with the birds who Lunt their nests happily end safely neat the Mayhew farm. The flrst bird that Doris made friends with was, she thought, the most won- derful bird of all. IL built its tiny nest among the jessamine vines on the lat. homer*. close to Doris's chamber win- dow. 11 was a hununing-bird, as beau- tiful as a flower. the little girl thought., as she watched its delicate wings, its swift i c tv it fi girt, and its hovering, swaying motion over some ireney-bearing tiles. sem, By silting very quietly at the window, Doris could see Mr. and Mrs. Humming -Bird going and coming, and gradually the timid birds became used to the little girl by the window, and knew that she was their friend. Some- times Doris would put out n dish on the w9ndew-sill with honey in it, and when the birds came and daintily dipped their bills in it, Doris Thought it one of the greatest things that could happen. Doris lived to play down under the rig maple -tree near the brook. Here she had a broad wooden bench which her father had made for her, and just above the bench on one of the lower branches of the tree Mr. and Mrs. Robin bad bunt their nest They were rather e noisy couple, but It was easier to make friends with them than with the hununing-birds They would lightL on the very bench where Doris sat, and ,pick up the hits el bread, or tiny pieces of fruit. By standing on the bench Doris could see the nests and as she was careful never to disturb it. Mr. and Mrs. Robin rimae no objections, but when the young robins began to flutter out of the nest they were as willing to take food from Doris es from their parents. They would hop along after bar when she started toward the house, chirping loudly. As they grew larger they flut- tered about her, and seemed to be on the lookout for her visits, and would take a berry or a bit of soft cake from her hand. Then, down in the peelere. Doris found the nest of a tiny ground .spar. row, and she made friends with the sparrow family. but very sotilly and gently. 11 took a long time before the little shy brewm birds would venture near the strange visitor: and they never leenrrie so friendly as the rabies. Doris is rimy nearly eight years old, and she is quite sure that the birds who ceme back to these mets every yenr belong to the same family as those with whom she first made friends: because Mx- says they remember her and are not tined.—Youth's Companion.

POACHERS' SHARP TRICKS MOST INGENIOUS CONTRIVANCES FOR CATCHING GA1II5. Snaring and Drugging Pheasants—Arm- ing Gamecocks With Steel Spure. As years pass on, poaching, like every- thing else, becomes more scientific. The old hempen net which the moueher used to hang across a field gat at night fn• hares has given place to one of silken card, and to cheap bullscye lantern to the more costly but more handy electric torch. Perhaps the most dangerous improve- ment, from the game preserver's point of view, is the substitution of the motor bicycle or motor car for the old fashioned <00 horse trap. 11 might be imagined that the motor bicycle would be of little. use for carrying game, says Chembers's Journal, but only the other day a motor cj dist was arrested near a Midland town with five newly killed hares in a box be- hind the .eat. Parisian papers lel] of well organized gangs who raid the cov- erts near the French capital by the aid of apparatus worth hundreds of pounds, who have relief funds for those injured in affrays, and who retain lawyers to de- fend those captured by keepers. Happily this sort of thing is still unknown in Eng - lend. Not unnaturally the pbeasent stands al the head of the poacher's list. if a pcacher can be sure of a quiet half hour 1n the covert he slips in, sets a net across e. run, sends his lurcher slinking around through the undergrowth, and presently., WITH A FLUTTER AND A FLOP, n fine cock bird is fast in the net, next moment to be transferred to the poach- er's pocket. A method of taking pbeesants which was more common a few years ago than it is new was that of "smoking." The Prsl essential Is to discover a tree where the birds roost. Then, up a dark, still night, the poacher goes to the spot armed with a handful of sulphur anu the lid of an old biscuit box. A fire of dry leaves ,e lighted upon the lid, the illumination being carefully concealed by a coat hung around it. As soon as the leaves have blazed up, the sulphur is flung on the fiances, and the lid held up under the bough on which the pheasants are meet. lag. Soon the suffocating tunas Lake effect. With a rustle and thump a fat bird Thuds upon the ground. One after another they drop, end with luck the pcaeher may get half a dozen from a single tree. Another favorite plan Is to Saab bar- ley or wheat for some hours in warm water. When the. grain is thoroughly softened the water is strained off and strong spirit poured over the wheat.

Partridges roost upon the ground, and by means of a long, light net dragged across the grass by two men it whole covey is often captured al one swoop. This form of poaching is only possible on a dark night, and at such a time the poachers cannot, of course, see the branches, and therefore they get their nets entangled in them, But some have nowadays taken to lining the ground side of their nets with some stiff glazed stuff. A net so protected will slide over most obstacles, INDIAN CURE FOR SMALLPDX. \Ve publish a simple cure for smallpox kindly sent by a corirspondent.

Firm regular tsteps aro said to denote a steady, re liable nature, while jerky, uneven movements inchoate tiro reverse. no energetic person walks quickly and stops suddenly; the dreamer saunters along with slow, abstracted mien.

They engaged themselves to marry; the dale for their wedding was axed. Mary prepared her irusseau with )ler swat needle, but, with each stitch slip felt hopes as pure, tremu- lous, es ever aelulated a princess. Suddenly, and without the slightest cause, Flynn transferred Ills effections, so -colied, to Anne Farrelly, another local beauty. The priest, Moe everyone in the country round, knew of Flynrl's faithless- ness to Mary Durkin, and, after giving hire and Anile Farrelly a severe lecture, lolling them he questioned if they could be happy after breaking poor Mary's heart, the good father refused to marry than. Flynn and Anne were married by civil process, This the farmers living near Carrick -on -Shannon regard as impious. Besides they aro angered by Flysin's treatment of Mary Durkin, So when the bride and bridegroom were returning from the civil ceremony thirty young men met thelll. Without wasting words these rural de- fenders of the faith and of constancy in love seized Flynn and took his bride back to her father's house. Then they carried the struggling bridegroom to Ills house. For ten days and nights the young far- mers kept constant guard over both hcusns, have had Mr. and Mrs, Flynn un- der unceasing surveillance, and have pre- vented them /tont rejoining each other. 4.
