There were two hungry babies in the nest of King Eagle and it was amazing how much they could eat. They kept their mother and father looking for &yod for them most of the time during the hours of daylight On one or two days King Eagle had had very good success. He had brought home a duck. He had brought home a rab- bit. But to keep two young eaglets growing, more than an occasional duck and rabbit is nceded. So both King Eagle and Mrs. Eagle went looking for fish. They were not par- | ticular whether the fish were alive | or dead, and not awfully fussy as to how long the dead ones had been | dead.

Now, while King Eagle is not as good as fisherman as Plunger the | Oeprey, he is not so bad as he might be. He is a little clumsy, but he does catch fish. He sailed out over | the lake.

Most of the cases are the re- sult of poisoning by aniline, nitro- benzene, or similar dye substances. he first symptom {8 a general blueness of the body beginning | from one-half to several hours after the shoes arc put on, This bluc- ness is the result of a change in the blood brought on by the action of the dye on the oXygen-carrying pow- ers of the blood. Associated with the blueness is a general weakness, headache, dizziness, nausea and sometimes complete prostration. Dr. John Aikman of Rochester, | New York, recently reported three cases that cccurred in that city. A boy six years old had worn shoes that had been dyed four days be- |fore. The shoes were put on about 11:30 in the morning. The boy began to turn blue about 2:40 in the afternoon. The blueness improved when the shoes wef | removed and returned the next day | \when the shoes were put on. The symptoms were s0 seri- ous that it was thought the child had an epileptic attack. However, when the shoes were removed the child had no further symptoms.

The mother found that the child had discovered the |shoes in the attic two hours before land had put them on. I A boy 18 years old came home ! one evening and fell on the floor from weakness. In the morntw it was noticed that he was blue and he complained of a severe headache. Indestigation showed that on , the previous evening he had worn shoes that had been dyed the day before. A boy ten ycars old put on a pair of shoes that had been dyed black the day before. The shoes were put on at 8:30 in the morn- ing and two hours later the boy began to turn blue. He wore the ahoes until evening. Since It was 2 hot day he perspired consider- ably. The blueness did not disap- pear until the shoes were re- moved. After the shoes had stood for four days in the air, the boy wore them again without any ef- fects. The public should again be warned that when tan shoes are dved black and the source and the nature of the dyes are not defl- nitely known, the shoes should be allowed to stand in the air for sev- eral days before they are worn.
