A GOOD WORD FOR THE CROW.
Despite the Damage `die Does' Hs 1s
a Good Scavenger.
In spite of the crow's instinct to fend
on the eggs and young of other species
(which he shares in common with sev
eral other birds), who would really
wish to see him quite exterminated,
even If it were possible to exterminate
so resourceful a fellow?
His destruction to crops is. certainly
far less than that of the bobolink in
the southern rice fields. He is an effi-
cient scavenger, and his destruction of
white grubs, cutworms, wireworms
and grasshoppers is of great value.
Above all, however, his place in our
landscape is such that his passing
would leave a dreary void.
Winter or summer we are conscious
of him against the sky, against the
fields or sentinel on a patriarch pine.
In the misty mornings of summer when
the sun has not yet roiled up the cur-
tains of cloud from the mountains we
hear his voice far off in the woods,
rousing us from slumber, and when
autumn has come and our sugar groves
are a glory of crimson he is still there,
his distant calf floating down sweetly
from the upland woods and testifying
in some strange way the height of the
Peaks beyond. -Harper'$ Magazine.

ELECTRIC SPARKING.
Light on a Puzzle That Has Worcied
Many Car Owners.
It Is a sad and common- experience to
men in motorboats, automobiles, etc.,
to find that something is wrong with
the 'spark. Often it is the case that
when the spark ping is taken out and
tested in air it shows up all right and
will ignite gasoline poured around it,
but when put 'back into position it will
not work. This is a puzzle to a great
many people today.
The reason lies in the simple fact
that the spark, when it takes place in
the cylinder, has to spark in compress-
ed gas, and when in pie air it doesn't
It is a well known scientific fact that
the pressure of the gas determines how •
'far a spark will jump under a given
voltage. If the spark jumped a quar-
ter inch in the open air and was placed
in a vessel with most of the air pumped
out, it would jurap several inches; and,
on the other hand. if placed in Rom -
pressed air it would not jump more
than a fraction Of the quarter inch. Of
course the thing to do in the circura-
stances. is 'to get new be-441es, and if
so situated that that is impossibl: the
two little terminals of the spark 'plug
should be pushecaclater together. Then
the spark will pass the compressed
gas inside the cylinder.
If explesion does not take place then
the spark -is probably so small that it
is wholly immersed either in air or in
the gasoline vapor, and to have en ex-
plosion It must be immersed in a mix-
ture of thl-two. The carburetor should
then be tinkered with. The probabil-
ities are, that a part of the time ex-
plosions will take place and will 'be
sufficient to keep up a -forward motion
at reduced speed.—Chicago Herald.
-Literary Inspiration.
It is enough to stun and scare any-
body to_have a hot thoueht come crash-
ing into his brain and plowing up those
parallel ruts where the wagon trains of
common ideas were jogging elong in
their regular sequence -of assoeiation.
_A lyric conception Iiits me like n but-
Iet in the forehead. I have often had
the blbod drop from my cheeks when it
, struck and felt that I turned as White
as death. Then comes a creepingas of
centipedes running clown the spine,
then a sudden flush end a beating in
the veesels of the head, :then a- long
sigh and the poem is writteu.—Ilolmes.
Sad Camels. '-
It is a well established fact that
even young camels never -play. They
are born sad, and thereafter tbeis life
is one protest against being made to
work, although Work has been their
portion since the beginning of the
memory of man. How ,largely they*
have been domesticeted from the earli-
est times we know from the statement
.that Job possessed 6,000 camels.—Lou•

LAY OF THE NIGHTINGALE.
Why It Stops When the Little Birds
- Come Out of the Shell.
It is generally assumed that a bird
sings because he is happy, but science
goes deeper for au. explanation of the
why and wherefore of the bird's song.
Nature's optimistic joy in constructive
progress is expressed in the singing of
the male birds who charm 'their mates
to further their wooing' and continue
after eggs are laid to encourage the
fulfillment of hatching. -1•
The song stops when the little bird's
come out of the shell. The nightin-
gale' for weeks 'during the period of
nest building and hatching charms his
mate „and hunsan ears near him with
the beautiful music of his love song.
But as soon as the littip nightingales
come from the eggs net song changes
to a sort, of guttural croak, implybig
anxiety and sense of responsibility.
If the nest and contents weee de-
stroyed the nightingale would at once
resume -his beautiful song to inspire
Ids mate to help him build anether nest
and start all over again the loving work
of being fruitful and multiplying.—

LABOR AND ART ,,CLASHED.
The Battle Was Rather One Sided and
Labor Won 'the Night.
Among the experiedaes which Sir
Frederick Cowen, the ethinent compos-
er, relates in his book "My Art aud
-My Friends" is the following: Once
while conducting in Melbourne a ter- ,
rible noise of hamtnering started over-
head as soon as the concert began.
"I put down my baton and stopped,"
writes Sir Frederick; "so did the noise.
Thinking it was over, I began again;
so did the noise. I then sent a mes-
senger with a polite request that the
noise should cease. After about ten
minutes, during which the hammering
grew more and more persistent, the
messenger returned, and I said to 'hire:
4` `Did you give them my message?
"'And what was thesir answer?'
"'They said, "Tell Mr. Cowen we"ye
got our contract to finish by a certain
time and we ain't going to stop for no
eoncert or nobody." '
"Upon this I turned to the audience
and eaid:
" 'Ladies and gentlemen, as you have
possibly noticed, there has been a fight
between labor and. art. Labor has
won. I am very sorry, and I wish you
all good night.'
"Then I di.smissed the orchestra, and
there was no concert that eveningef
FIRE RISKS ON FARMS.
Safety 'First Should Be as Much tho
Rule There as Elsewhere.
A contributor to Farm and Fireside
shhws how appalling tire rLsks are on
farms. He tells how fo reduce some-
ef these fire risks and Wines in part
as follows:
"The inveterate smoker is about as
dangerous as a walking stick of dyna-
mite. It makes me shudder to see a
man smoking around ,the farm build-
in.gs. One man I know never will for-
get the way he was run off the farm
when I caught him smoking a ciga-
rette while stacking hay.
"Another dangerous practice of which
the average man is guilty is that of
carrying ordinary matches loose in his
pockets. He should carry either safe-
ty matches or keep the ordinary kind
in a metal box.

A Gladstone Anecdote.
Lord Alverstone tells this anecdote
of Gladstone in his "Recollections:"
."Mr. Gladstone was very much in-
terested in the Caucasus. I had a
friend, Captain X., who had recently
come home from that district, and. I
gave him a letter of introducticin. to Mr..
Gladstone. A few days later I raetldr.
Gladstone in Parliament street. , He
stopped me and said, 'Your 'friend,
Captaha X., knows more about the Cau-
casus than any marl I ever met.' A
few minutes afterward I met Captain
X. in Pail Mall. I Said to him, 'Well,
you have made a great impression, Mr.
Gladstone."Have lir he said. 'Yes;
I replied. 'He saya you know more
*about the Caucasus than any man he
ever reet.."Well,' said. Captain X., 'that
is 'very strange, for, ough I was with
him for three -qua of an hour, I
made only three ob rvations."
