THE BOB -WHITE FAMILY.
"Do little birds do just as their
fathers and mothers dot" question-
ed Molly, a3 she leaned close to
Aunt Elanor, and looked across the
field to where "hob -White" and bis
family had established a summer
home.
"Not always," replied Aunt Elin-
or, slipping her arm about the little
girl. 'Sornetimes they learn by
their own experience to have more
confidence iu inert and women and
children than their parents had."
"What is confidence?" questioned
Molly, who always wanted the mean-
ing of things.
"Well, it's just the feeling you
have when you lean up against me,"
explained Aunt Elinor, with a little
laugh. 'You are sure I won't hurt
you, and you feel safe, as though
you were protected."
"Oh, yes," responded Molly.
"And do some birds feel that way
when they are near people ?"
Aunt Elinor nodded. "In coun-
tries where children are taught to
be gentle and friendly with birds
they become very tame."
"Would those little Bob -Whites
ever have confidence iu me i" ask -
cif Molly.
"Yes, in'doed," said Aunt Elinor.
And that very day Molly went across
the field to where Mrs. Bob -White
wets perched on the low fence, talk-
iegg to her little family.
Molly did not go very near. She
sat down on a big stone, where she
could see them plainly; but Mrs.
Mrs. Bob -White fluttered off the
fence and joined her family, and
they all scuttled away in the tall
grass. Molly sat very quietly, and
scattered the little bag of wheat she
had brought all about the rock.
After a while, as the birds did not
come back, she went home.
The next 'day she started down the
field again, for Aunt Elinor had
told her that she must be very
patient with all small wild creat-
ures, and that it would take many
visits before the quails would know
that she was a friend. As she calve
near the rock where she sat the day
before there was a flutter of wings,
and Alothor Quail flow off to her
perch on the fence, and Molly hoard
a low, plaintive "Quoi-i-hee !" from
the little birds; but they did not fol-
low their mother very far. Molly
sat down in the grass, and saw the
little birds pick up the sweet grains
of wheat; and Mother Quail, after
a few scolding notes, came back to
her family. But she hopped about
nervously, or made little upward
flights.
Molly was sure that the birds
were beginnig to know her. This
time she left some pieces of cake
near the rock; and every clay for two
weeks she came faithfully to visit
the Bob -Whites. By this time they
began eto look for her. and these
wildest of wild birds had learned
what their parents had not known—
confidenwa in human beings. Aunt
Elinor Aould sit on the porch and
watch Molly go across the field, and
see the little Bob -Whites come al-
most within reach of her little
niece's hand. Sometimes they
would even follow Molly a little way
toward the house in the most loving
and fearless manner, although their
doubtful mother called warningly
after her family, as though she had
not conquered al her fears, or as
though she would teach thein not to
be too ready to trust.
"They have learned something
their mother doesn't know, haven't
they, Aunt Elinor?" Molly declar-
ed, happily, as she looked back to-
ward the birds, and remembered
what Aunt Elinor had told her of
the meaning of the word "confi-
dence. "&Youth's Companion.
IMPORTANT PEOPLE.
Happy City is undoubtedly a very
orderly town --never more than one
lynching a month being enacted
there—but is has an unenviable rep-
utation for cheating at cards.
A greenhorn, seeing life, visited
the only hotel the city boasts the
other day and some companionable
gentlemen impressed flim into play-
ing poker with them. Against his
will he played. Against his will,
H'tso, he lost.
Realizing that all his money had
departed and that he would have to
`••fit►k about three hundred miles
:ma to civilization, he went to the
Sheriff and said:
'Officer, I want you to arrest those
two en over there for forcing me
into game of cards with them and
then swindling rate."
"Y'r askin too much, stranger,"
replied the guardian of the law. "1

for the purpose is Dr. J. D. Kel-
log's Dysentery Cordial. It can be
got at small cost at any rlrng store

ford relief before a doctor can be

GAVE HONOR TO THE BLIND.
Great Thinge Aehlet;ed by Iii.
Sightless Men.
Great things achieved by two
men of talent and of spirit so
dauntless that even total blindness
could not keep them down have just
been especially recognized iu Am-
erica and Europe.
Seventeen years ago Mr. E. D.
Campbell, now a university profes-
sor and director of the chemical
laboratories in the University of
Michigan, lost his sight through an
accident. In spite of his affliction
he has taken a high place in edu-
cation and has made original re-
searches of much value, especially
in the chemistry of iron and ce-
ment. He has just attended a ban-
quet in his honor at the University
of Wisconsin, where he delivered
an address on "Tho Effect of Free
Magnesia on Cements."
It is forty years since the fam-
ous blind engineer of Belfast died
in Ireland. The Belfast Natural
History and Philosophical Society
has now published a memorial pa-
per on his life and remarkable
achievements. Alexander Mitchell
was 18 years old when he became
blind. His life was shrouded in
darkness for seventy-two years, but
he was in active business till he
was 82, and his influence still lives.
His two greatest works were the
discovery and application of a new
principle in preparing the founds-
: tions for lighthouses and piers and
his improvements in the screw pro-
peller. He built many lighthouses,
and long before his death ho had
the satisfaction of knowing that his
inventions were conferring import-
ant benefits in India and North
and South America as well as in
i Europe and that his improvements
steam propulsion were used on
every sea.
There is no lack of illumination
it: the minds of such as these who
can achieve the exceptional though
from "wisdom at one entrance quite
shut out."
KEEP CHILDREN WELL
DURING HOT WEATHER
Every mother knows how fats
the summer months are to sural
children. Cholera infantum, diar
rhoea, dysentery and stomach trou
bles are alarmingly frequent at thi
time and too often a precious littl
life is lost after a few hours' ill
nese. The mother who keeps 13aby'
Own Tablets in the house feels
safe. The occasional use of Baby's
Own Tablets prevent stomach and
bowel troubles, or if the trouble
comes soddenly—as it generally
dces--the Tablets will bring the
little one through safely. Mrs
George Howell, Sandy Beach, Que.,
says :—"My baby was suffering with
colic, vomiting and diarrhoea, but
after giving him Baby's Own Tab-
lets the trouble disappeared. I
would ads ise all mothers to keep a
box of Tablets always at hand."

IMPORTANCE OF BIRDS.
So great is the part played by
birds in disseminating seeds and in
protecting plants by the destruc-
tion of noxious insects that Mr. If.
W. Henshaw reaches the somewhat
astonishing conclusion that if all
birds were exterminated, not only
would successful agriculture be-
come impossible, but the greater
part of the vegetation of the earth
would eventually be destroyed. A
permanent reduction in the bird
population, he says, could not but
have disastrous consequences.
THE WAY.
When fate is dealing out hard
knocks,
Don't try to shako 'em ;
Just buckle in and grit your teeth,
Then stand an' take 'cin.
For when she finds you won't be
downed,
As sure as shootin,'
She's very apt to turn around,
And go a-scootin.
