ENEMIES OTHE BIRDS,
Result of Taming Robins•- Domestic
Cats and Nestlings.
In the Northern States many of the.
protected birds are inducted to build
their nests in or near buildings, and
they are fed and sornetimos partially
tamed. This is commendable, of.
course, but robins, for example; are
included in :the lipt of pane birds in
soiree of the 'Southern States, and ef-
forts made to tame, them here u ay
result in their. destruction an their
southward flight in the autumn., Ac-
customed to fregtiett the homes ,of
their Northern friends; if they evince
similar habits in • the South they are
Often. killedfor the pot.
In the oourse of time the Southern
States will protect these.;. birds, but
until this is doneit would be well
to remember the result of feeding
birds Ticar :<our ;hoinee.. Of course the
mere, fact that �'tthey are not molested
while in the North' causes anally birds
to rest round 'about houses, but if
they must be fed this should not be
done near dwellings.
There are few women who view with
calmness the killing of harmless birds
by cats. On the other hand, there
are few owners of eats who take any
steps to prevent these depredations.
The taming of birds in places where
cats are permitted to roam at will
means certain death to a large Ma-
jority of such birds, and so far as
we know there is only one preventive,
and that is to remove the cat from its
field of activity.
The theory that cats keep • the
country home free from rate and mice
is pretty—or was before Puss, pam-
pered and overfed, became more fond
of the heat of the kitchen range or
the sun than` of her traditional hunt-
ing fields. Now that the birds are
encouraged to • nest near .by, almost
within her reach, with a minimum: of
effort she varies her diet now . and
then with a nestling and is content.
To prevent hounds from hunting
foxes we confine them until ready to
accompany them, but we encourage
songbirds to nest near dwellings and
at the same time permit, one of their
worst enemies to hary them daily.—

THE WISE AND FOOLISH VIRGINS.
As it happened, however, the five fool-
ish virgins were observed, in their per-
plexity, by five wise men.
"Permit me ?" quoth each of these,
and stepped up and filled a virgin's
lamp for her, adding: "Now, you just
about need somebody to look out for
you, don't you, eh?'
And upon the five foolish virgins
blushing violently and lookbegly shyly
down the five wise men lost no time in
procuring licenses, and they all lived
happily ever after. '
As for the wise virgins, they sniffed
some when they heard the news, animad-
verted with considerable acerbity on the
ancient mystery of the way of a man
with u maid, and let it go ' at that.—

Barry the Heroic.
The sagacity of the reseue doge of St.
Bernard is remarkable and the : follow-
ing story is told in the Wide Wordl
Magazine of "Barry," the most famous:
of all the'Alpine St. Bernards, who lost
bis life while performing his duty: •
"During' the ten years he was with
us," said the Provost, "he saved the
lives of 40 persons who had lost their
way in the snow. On one oeea•siou he
found a child 10 years old lying in the
slumber which precedes death. The dog
warmed the child with its breath, and
then roused it front sleep by licking it.
This much accomplished, Barry, by ly-
ing down on his side, gave the child an
obvious invitation to get upon his back
and ride. The child did so, and was
thus carried to the monastery. Barry
was killed . by some unknown person,
probably in mistake. The inscription on
his monument is: 'Barry, the .heroic:
Saved the lives of 40 persons; and Was
killed by the forty-firste"
TOMMY ATKINS' UNIFORM.
Trousers Most Costly •Item—New
Rules for His Kit.
It will astonish most people to be told
that the British Government in addition
to being a maker of laws is the greatest
tailor in the world. The army clothing
factory et Pimlico is the biggest tailor's
shop in England. Last year Tommy
Atkins' tailor's bill amounted. to £355,-
375. During the Boer war the clothing
of the army cost nearly £5,000,000.
Trousers are the most costly item ni
the soldier's wardrobe, and for their
nether garments last year the nation
hied to pay no less. a auin:than £73,278. •
This recalls the fact that it is less than
ninety years since the British army first
put on its trousers ---that the British in-
fantry soldier, that is, first substituted
trousers for the old fashioned knee
breeches.
The British soldier will be clothed on
an entirely different system to what
has prevailed for so many years, and
the innovation will probably' be a great
deal more satisfactory to the rank and
file. Every man will receive his free
outfit on enlistment as heretofore, but
he will be required to provide his per-
sonal clothing and necessaries out of an
allowance credited to him quarterly in
advance. Instead of his present kit
allowance of twopence a day after
six, months' service he will receive at the
end of the first year a lump sum equiva-,
lent to the accumulated twopences, in
addition to the separate clothing allow-
ance.
The maintenance of kit and clothing
will be a matter between the soldier
and his commanding officer. It is in-
tended that the present arbitrary periods
of wear allotted to each garment shall
be abolished. Under the old system a
pair of trousers might be serviceable to-
day and "time expired" to -morrow.
Even in the piping times of peace
Tommy Atkin's tailor's bill would make
a millionaire poor in a year. Roughly
speaking, it costs £1,000,000 every year
to clothe the British army. The head-
gear of the troops, embracing every-
thing
verything from a simple cap to a, bearskin
helmet, exhausts nearly £50,000, and
boots, shoes and leggings, 'Which are
purchased ready made, ecst nearly
£250,000. The eoet of a soldier's uni-
form varies from just over £10 10s. to
less than £3, according to the regi-
ment in which he may be serving. For
instance, the annual tailor's bill for the
rank and file it: the Life Guards is just
over :g7, while in the infantry of the
line it is under ;e3.---Tit-Bits.

In Denmark one of the favorite forms

A large pole is fixed upright in the

beam is attached; the whole affair being
kept from toppling over by means of a
large wagon wheel, through whose hub
the upright pole is thrust and which
lies flat upon the ice. To the end of
the longer section; of the transverse
beam, a string'. of sleds isattached, and
then eight or ten of the large lads end
lassies begin to skate in a circle, push-
ing the beam around with them, while
the little fellows climb on the sleds.

WHERE THE MIRACLE CAME IN.
Dr. Walter C. Smith, the popular
Scotch poet -preacher, on one occasion
tried to explain to an old. lady the
incoming of the scriptural expression,
"'fake up thy bed and walk," by saying
that the bed was simply a mat or rug
easily taken up and earned away.
"No, no," replied the lady, "1 canna
believe that.. The bed was a regular
four-poster. There would be no miracle
in walking away we a bit o' mat or rug
.on your bask.' -Argonaut.
