Carroll 'an Ouirt
V u never k n o w where w e are
going to meet a good sportsman.
I was pleased with an incident
thai happened recently at San
Diego, Calif.
fius Burkhnrd noticed a group
of pigeons on the sidewalk in front
of his store, darting around to get
the wheat tossed by generous
newsboys on the w;lk for their
benefit.
One of the pigeons looked half
starved, and seemed unable to get
his share of food. Mr. Burkhard
watched him closely and noticed
that his beak was flattened out
and overlapping, which prevented
the poor bird from picking up the
wheat properly.
The predicament of the bird
showed that it was really starving
to deatii in the midst of plenty, so
Mr. Burkhard caught the bird and
with the uid of u helper took a
sharp razor blade, while the other
man held the pigeon, and carefully
shaved the bird's hill to the proper
shape and size.
After the pigeon was put down
on the sidewalk ana praei iseu
using his new bill awhile, he noun
learned to eat like the other
pigeons. So shines a good deed in
a naughty world!

Science and Instinct
(Harold Oland)
I You say that men of science find
That only Man has a -thinking
mind; 1
That all those things of a lower
kind
Have not the power of construing
The facts that rule the things
they're doing?
That instinct and habits control
their acts.
While the human mind is gov-,
erned by facts? j
And so the jogical brain of Man
Does 1 better by fur than instinct
ca n ? .
Then" let lne see yH ffnel your way
From Mexico's Clulf . to Baffiu'H
1 Bay.
And never wander' a rod astray.
Without a pilot or chart beside
you,
j Nor map, nor compass, nor sign to
guide you.
That shouldn't be any serious
strain
Tn a fact-consulting human brain.
That should be easy enough to
you; ,
It's one of the things a bird can do.
Start Perennial Seeds
in July for Next Year
Would you like to have a fine
stand of young perennial outdoor
plants all ready next spring to
transplant Into their permanent
(positions? Don't wait until next
spring but start sowing seeds ot
biennials and perennials in mid
summer, advises Kllen Eddy Shaw
of Brooklyn Botanic Oarden. She
advocates starting next year's gar
den in July or August of this year
to obtain the best results.
In summer the soil is Inclined
to be dry, but the seeds should be
planted In moisture. Do the plant
ing after a soaking ru'in if possi
ble; If not, give the soil a thoro
saturation before putting lit the
seeds. let the top surface dry
before planting.
Home-grown Sceil GhmI
Use seed saved from your own
garden for this early seed bed.

Simplifying July Mciiln
A midsummer dinner served out
of doors Is always enticing. Even
on a very warm tiay tne guesis
will forget to tulk about the
weather if they are served with
well chilled food at a Cool looking
table.
Suppose you have only a de
lightful back yard with a single
tree and are living almost picnic
fashion with no servants. If you
have a small tea wagon the first
course .may be placed upon the
table and the wagon with the
other courses placed close to the
table. A small side table might be
used for the dishes that are re
moved from the table when the
next course Is served. From the

Garden Reminders
To imml Dahlia Itnols
To avoid stunting due to the at-
tacks of wire worms, never plant
dahlias or other plants with fleshy
fr roots in land which has been out
of cultivation for a number of
4 years, such as old, neglected
strawberry beds, lawns, ami mea-
dows, wiitm tit determining first
4 whether these insects are present.
They usually spend from two to
three years In the noil, but rarely
jis cultivated holl infested. If pres-
jent, they can be killed with carbon
bisulphide emulsion. This will not
j injure shallow rooted plants like
grass, but Is fatal to most peren
nials if applied about the roots.

Modern Health
Doctrine Found in
Old Gypsy Lore
A codiriratlnn nf tho ruled of
lu-alth, so moiU-rn In im nplilt thnt
it would uppcar to havo ut-en pre
pared by prost-nt'duy KclcnilHtB.
Iiuh been found In Rypny lore nioro
thlin 25U0 years old. The Ameri
can Magazine, pulillnhliiK thexo
KS'psy In-all li riilen for the flmt
time in KiikIIhIi, recommends them
to the consideration of all who
seek physical normalcy.
The gypsy houlfll doclrinn is
based on the f linUanieutal theory
thnt there Is no more dangerous
sickness than sadness. As a mat
ter of fact, the gypsy language has
no word for "sick." instead of
saying 'Jle Is sick unlo death" tho
gypsy says, "llu Is snd unto
death."
Jn tho gypsy pode, hupplness
means health. A modern scient
ist, commenting on I his ancient
health rule, says "It is only re.
ccntly that science has discovered
that the gastrin Juices are influ
enced by the mental condition of
tho Individual, and that food,
whetted with tears, Is like poison
to the body; that the iimllly of
the food Is not half so important j
as Ihe mental conilllinn of the'
enter. The gypsy. It appears, has i
known this for thousunds of
I years."
Investigators for tho magazine, !
studying tho gypsy uppllciitlon of I
these health rules, reports: "It '
Is a well known fact hat gypsies i
eai ioous mat would kill any
while man, yet when a gypsy Is
not hungry he cannot he made to
eat even a morsel. The gypsy
wonders that we can eat when
wo are not hungry, or drink when
we are not, thirsty: he wonders
that w can . remain alive after
doing so." . .
One of thn gypsy health rules
says: "The poison Is not In thn
food: It is in the mouih of tho
eater."
The relationship between henlth
and happiness is drilled Into gyp
sy children early In life. Tho first
thing a gypsy mother, teaches her
chliil Is to lie luM'py under all cir
cumstances. Then follows un In
tensive course in physical train
ing, flypsy children are expected
to walk unaided long before they
are ten months old. Hy the time
Ihey arc a year old they have been
taught many gymnastic tricks,
and they can nlso sing nnd dance.
A gypsy hoy Is considered a hark
waiil specimen If he cannot turn
a perfect somersault at Ihe age of
four, fllrl children are taught
to dance long before they are able
to stand on their feet. The child
Is taughf to sway to Ihe rhythm
of the mother's song, lo the snap-
i ping or her ringers, ami to thu
'tunes of violin and cymbal.

Pimwiing The Exterior Color Scheme
Ity Chester Aldtlch. Architect
JHE home-owner looks about hlm
and sees that every aspect of
American life is becoming more
colorful. He asks. "Why shouldn't
we have more colorful and beauti
ful exteriors for the houses In
which we live?"
Tho architect believes that this
deal re is logical and reasonable.
Anywhere we' look; we sec the
trend on the great city skyscra

.residences. Bright, clear color Is
making our streets and roads more
cheerful, more pleasant to live on.
