“Redhead” Is Farmers’ Friend. “Redhead"” is a regular doctor of the fruit orchard, systematically search- Ing, every crack and crevice in. the bark, and testing with his sharp little augur every -spot which looks as though' it might conceal beneath the bark a tree-borer. ‘The hundreds of little holes drilled in the bark do not hurt the apple trees, but they mean that many an apple-borer has been discovered and transfixed on: red- head’s spearlike tongue, to be swal- lowed a second later with keen rel- ish, or taken away to a gaping fledg- ling. The red-lieaded woodpecker usually selects a partly. decayed tree in which to “chisel a hole for its nest. Both father ‘and mother bird take turns in the excaviting. The one that is off: duty forages in the vicinity for grubs, beetles, a little corn, and preferably béech nuts. At a loving call from its mate it returns promptly to take its turn ‘'on the job—about 20 minutes or half an hour to the shift. “Redhead” has’a thrifty habit of “storing away ts. for the winter, frequently to be | appropriated, however, by- the squir- rels. : ing Leave of Mats, More Impres- sive Than Flow of Tears. ., It was the square of Yurievets (on the Volga) ‘that one. of those tragic fragments whlch life casts up like _driftwood Was flung at our feet.

A correspondent sends me a story which is a good parallel (or, rather, the. exact opposite’ of a parallel) to that of the minister who prayed in Gaelie.” | . There was in Dublin an old lady both eccentric and devout. . One day she sent for a Jewish minister, and started to learn Hebrew most assid- uously. -~ Though she “was eccentric, and her friends were-rarely surprised at ‘anything she chose to do, they did wonder at this,-and asked her ':h«> reason. “It would ill become me,” she re- plied, “when I meet my Maker, as soon I shall, to address him in -any but his native lnnguage.“—London News, This is Miss Liberty Bell. course, that is not her real name, but she is a Northwest farm girl who borrowed her father’s incubator and raised this brood of chicks with the -idea that théy would grow to broiler size in time for her to buy a Liberty Bond.

In other pas- sages the fourth pretended brother of Christ is designated by the Jews as the brother of James; Jude and Joses., It is also claimed, in explanation of this theological puzzle, that the Jews were wont to apply the term brqther to cousins, torelatives in collateral line, and even to mere friends (Gene- sis12:14-29).
