Tbe raven has gained little in tbe af fections of the people from bis kindly act of supplying Elijah, tbe prophet with food when hunxer pressed blm. The raven Is thought of as a bird of 111 omen wherever bis black shadow spiH'urs. lie i tbe xtiilxter bird, uud be cannot nhake from bis feathers bis evil name, though U be ouly lu pun de served. : . ' ' - How can any one be supposed to cul tivate affectum for ti bird of which a great poet could write lines like these: The tad presaging raven tolls Tht sick man's passport in nr Hollow ., beak ,-. ... And In the shadow of th allent night Doth Make coiuaKlon from her aabie wing. Tbe raven is passing. Already It baa almost entirely disappeared freu tbe British islands Formerly the Ameri can raven was fairly iummun in out middle western country. In New Eng land and In the lower rangea of the Allegheny niuuurutus. Today It Is only occasionally to be Hveo lu its ancient haunts. In tbe Rocky mountains, however. where men are scarce, tbe raven Is holding its own. It builds Its nest on tbe edge of the ledges of tbe Inaccessi ble cliffs, and. sighting its foe from afar. It keeps the distance In which lies safety. ' ' The raven is ugly In shape, as It Is In voice. Its sole beauty lies In the luster of Its feathers when the son strikes them full and fair. It Is a bearded bird, with hlph shoulders and certain bumps and humps bere and there to make Its form seem utterly lost to symmetry. ' The bird Is not altogether bad. It robs tbe testa of other birds, and It Is this trait of character which has lost It caste and life In England. The game keeper ehoota It on sight, -and In recent years, because of the growing Scarcity, tbe museum collectors have been hunt ing the raven In all places where It Is reported to have dared to show iu head. ' The raven is tbe bird of books. It haa a larger place In literature perhaps than all other birds combined If we ex cept tbe eagle. Shakespeare mentions It no less thau tlfty times. ' Milton did not neglect It. and all tbe poets an cient, medieval nnd modern have con sldcred the raven. The American raven probably will be safe In his Rocky mountain haunts for years to come, but he U so far removed from man's habiUtlons that his plctur "Nqueness, his oddities, his gravities f iid his croaklui: virtually are lost to the world.--Chlcngo Post - ' What Held Her.
