A study of the hahits ot tiesh eating birds shows that If they possess the sense of smell at all it is not suffi eiently acute to enable them to use it in finding food. All observers are agreed tha:t when a carcass is hidden by never so slight a screen it is safe from the attacks of vultures and other carrion seekers, but the most remarkable proof of the neffectiveness of the ser se (if it exist gt all) is afforded byv experiences which Dr. Guillemard wat. good enough to re late to me. Many times it has hap pened, he tells ue, that, having shot a wild beast or other game, which was too heavy to carry home , he has dis emboweled it and hidden the carcass in the hole of an "ant bear." On returning with natives to carry it to camp he has found a circle of vul tures standing round the spot where the offal had been thrown, completely unaware of the carcass within a few yards of their beaks. Of observations proving the possession of the sense I know none unless we are willing to accept as evidence the eiief which is very general among fanciers that birds are attached to the smell of anise and the. similar belief of gamekeepers in some parts of the country that they are attracted by valerian. It is said that pigeons may be prevented from deserting the dovecot by smearing their boxes with oil of anise. Poach ers are supposed to lure hen pheasants from a wood by anointing gateposts with tincture of valerian.-Nature. WAIT FOR AN APPETITE. Do Not Eat a meal Unless You Are Really Hungry. It is not wise to eat unless there is a real, natural hunger. It is far better to miss a meal than to eat without an ap petite. A prolific cause of: chronic indiges tion is eating from habit and simply because it is mealtime. To eat when not hungry is to eat without relish, and food taken without relish is worse than wasted. Without relish the salivary glands do not act, the gastric fluids are not freely secreted and the best o. foods will not be digested. Many per fectly harmless dishes are severely condemned for no other reason than they were eaten without relish and due nsalivation. Hunger makes the plainest food en joyable. It causes vigorous secretion and outpouring of all the digestive fluids-the sources of phyalin, pepsin, tryspin, etc.-without a plentiful sup ply of which no foeds can be perfectly d4gested. Wait far an appetite if it takes a week. Fasting is one of the saving graces. It has a spiritual significance only through Its great physical and physiologic importance. X breakfast is a bore or lunch a matter of indifference eut one or both of them out, Wait for distinct and unmistakable hunger and thea eat slowly. If you do this you need ask few questions as to the pro priety and digestibility of what you eat, and it need not be predigested. Boston Cooking School Magazine. Baltimore Crabs. The price of a deviled crab in Balti more runs down quite a scale. Begin ning with 15 cents in the fashionable otels, it drops to 10 at the ordinary eat~ing bar and then to 5 when bought from the greasy basket of the good na tured crab man. In the tiny Italian cook shops deviled cerabs can be en joyed at the rate of 3 cents each, and In the saloons along the water front they are often stacked up in a huge dish on the free lunch counter. With all- these opportunities for feasting on the well seasoned "debbil" it is little wonder that Baltimoreans are consid ered the crab connoisseurs of the na tion.-New York Herald. Honest Retrievement. Let the touch of assistance offered to those who stumble be freighted with such buoyancy, strength and encour agement that it wilf prove an impetus. It is often in the establishing of one's footing that the balance. is lost-for the lack of poise or some indefinable something. There is infinitely more redit in honest retrievement than in the even rut of moral being and con tinuance.-New Orleans Times-Demo Perfectly Safe.
