Although a great lover of birds, I never grieve when anyone kllH n mngple, Mrs. Frank J. Ilnzen writes from Acushnct, Mont., to the New York Kvenlng l'ost. From a child, I knew they were tlilove.i, but I had to live on 11 weHtern stock Hindi before realizing they were llttlu demons. During n drought In the Northwest muny animals were hrv hly tortured and llnnlly klih-d in tin feathered fiends. A henst wi'nl.fiit'd by Intmlllclent food, luck of water, old ufje or any other cause In imimreil iiHin by the magpie, which perchus oil Its hack I a pluce out of reach of the victim s tall, nnd then lieglns to lllernlly oat tho poor brute alive. Two Incidents cume under my own observation. We hnd an old horse out at pasture that we valued for th work she had done. After a time w discovered Hint the m:ii;ilo were "working" 011 ln-r mul hint 11 trend made a terrible "woo on Ihe MMir ereti lure. Just uhove her shoulder. Wo put her In the corral to give her extra fei and wash and treat tho fore. To our astonishment the mnuplcv still kept after her. They sii ined to know we would not dare shoot ut them when they were on Ihe Imek of Ihe horse fo four of killing her. Time nfier llni we tried to get thorn when Hying to nnd from their dreadful feast, hut their Instinct told them, apparently, when we were nrineil nnd when Ihe gun was out of reach, so they 11 1 way miimiKod to eeiipi'. At hil we were obliged to keep the horse III tho barn until the sore healed. It was the only way si 10 could gel rid of her tormen torn. AUSTfilANS USERS OF ARSENIC Mountain Fo k Mal i Use of Deadly Potion for Da ,.iite Purpose Also Fed to Horses. Iiihnbllniils of Austria, In Hi mountains ailloining Hungary, are In the hnhlt of mull g nicnle. The effect of the poison, when taken lu iiiodoiHto iiunnlltles. Is lo gle 11 freNhnifH to Hit complexion, nnd iiiierwaril to Impart a certain degree of embonpoint. An other ndvuntiige which the enters do rlvo from the use of thu poison Is to have their respiration facilitated In ascending the mount 11 In. They place a llttlu piece of nrxenle lu their mouth and they usccml the greatest height with en so. (I rooms nml cotichmcn at Vienna give nrsenlc to their horses. They sometimes throw h pinch of It ninoug thu outs, mid somntlmes He up a small hit of It In n linen rug, which they attach to tho bit when the horse Is hnniesscd, Thu effect 011 Ihe horsoi Is to nut them In high condition, with tho skin smooth nnd shining, and to Increase their spirits. The carters In the mountainous conn tries of Austria nre also lu the hnhlt of giving nrsenlc to their horses when nhout to ascend 11 steep road, with the result Hint the ascent Is made much easier for tho anlmnls. Artist Vision. It Is nn though a man were shown n crystal, n perfect tiling, glooming below depths of wnter, far down be youd roach. Ho would dive mid dle ngnlu, driven by his groat desire to secure it, until llnnlly, nil dripping ho brought It up. Hut Hint In the end he could bring II, a perfect thing, to us, wns possible solely because he hnd llrst seen It gleaming there. Others might dive and dive, might work nnd labor with endless patience und endless pains, but unless they hud first seen the crystal unless they hnd been given this divine gift of seeing this vision they would come up empty-handed, The occasional so enlhM genius does not mnke the crystal but he alone sees It where II lies gleaming below depths of water, nnd by his effort brings It to ut.
