Our only oriole with top of head and throat black and cheeks orange. Itange: Breeds from South Dakota, Nebraska, and Kansas to the Pacific ocean and from southern Canada to northern Mexico; winters in Mexico. Habits and economic status: In the West this bird takes the place oc cupied in the East by the Baltimore oriole. In food, nesting habits, and song the birds are similar. Both are migratory and remain on their sum mer range only some five or six months. They take kindly to orchards, gardens, and the vicinity of farm build ings and often live in villages and city parks. Their diet is largely made i up of insects that Infest orchards and gardens. When fruit trees are in bloom they are constantly busy among the blossoms and save many of them from destruction. In the food of Bul lock's oriole beetles amount to 35 per cent and nearly all are harmful. Many of these are weevils, some of which live upon acorns and other nuts. Ants and wasps amount to 15 per cent of the diet. The black olive scale was found in 45 of tt 162 stomachs ex amined. Caterpillars, with a few moths and pupae, are the largest item of food and amount to over 41 per cent. Among these were codling-moth ; larvae. The vegetable food 1s prac tically all fruit (19 per cent) and In cherry season consists largely of that fruit. Eating small fruits is the bird’s worst trait, but it will do harm is this way only when very numerous. Jiihiiiniiiiiiiiiiiimiiiimiiiiiiitmiiiimii T,ru%r>-V-V-l-V-—»-*— JJ | TACTICS j| By HELEN E. IVERS. SnrnrniimimiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiHiiiiiiiiiir Eva liuug herself ou the couch with a deep sigh. lluzel, her older sister, smiled encouragingly “Yes, sister, she said, “tell me all about it.” Hazel and Eva lived lu the small town of \V—. They were well known, each in a different way. Hazel was very pretty und rallier a belle in the social world, while Eva, though us pretty as her sister, was no! us populur with the same people. All of her teach ers und more studious friends admired her very much, but that was not her greatest desire. “Aren't you golug to tell me, Eva?" Hazel asked, seeing that her nster was still silent "There's nothing much to tell," Eva Anally answered. "I'm discouraged thut's all. What l want to know is, bow do you get all the boys that you like to uotlce you? 1 never can. There's Jack 11—, for Instance. 1 like him, but I’m not especially fond ! of him, and I show that I don’t care 1 whether he comes near me or not, but j still 1 can’t go anywhere that he does ; not follow me. Others, that I would like to have show an interest In me hardly notice me, and I am Just us nice as pie to them. I should like to know the reuson. Huzd was amused. “You are fuuuy, Sis. You don’t know human nature at all. I’ll tell you the reason why." The next night was the senior dance at the college, and Hazel and Eva were planning to go. All day they whispered together. When night came both girls dressed and then waited for their es corts. They did not wait long. Very soon ; the bell rang and Jack B— was beard , approaching. “Oh, dear," Eva sighed. “1 wish 1 that he would disappoint tue just once ; In his life. It gets rather boring to b« so sure of just what a person will suy or do.” Just here Jack came in, rather mors sadly than was his wont. “I'm so sorry, Eva,” he said, “but j I’ll have to disappoint you tonight. 1 have hud a telegram calling me to N—, where my father was lu a railroad ac- ! cidenL “Oh, Jack,” Eva was all sympathy “I hope that It isn't serioua.” Jack shook his head. “The tele gram doesn't give me much encourage ment However, I must go right away j Probably Hazel will let you go with her." “Oh, yes,” Hazel hastened to say | “Don't worry, Jack. I’ll see that she gets there all right." Jack went toward the door, hut be fore be reached there he turned hack “Will you please come to the door with tue, Eva?" he asked. “1 hav« something to say to you.” Wonderlngly she followed him, ano was hardly outside when he seized hei j bands rather roughly. “Oh, Eva, dear," he murmured huski ly, "how I love you. Won't you marry ; me, please?” She pulled her hands away quickly j "No, Jack," she said firmly. “I can , not I do not love you." She turned and re-entered the room j leaving a dumbfounded Jack behind j her. “An nour later she was at the dunce 1 feeling miserable. The tactics advisee by her sister had been used. She wai very cool with all of the boys she had been aspiring to have like her, anc one and all had decided that that rath er “dull little sister of Hazel,” was a charming little thing when one got t( know her. Eva was certainly outdoing hersell tonight. Nobody would ever bavi guessed that she felt sad, for despilr her merriment, she did feel lonesome Her wish that Jack would disappoint her once had been fulfilled sooner than she hud expected it would and al though she knew that his excuse had been good, she felt unaccouutab!) slighted. She was undoubtedly re lieved when it was time to go home About ID minutes after she reached home, the telephone rang. “It’s for you, Eva," Hazel called who had run to answer It. “You're getting popular, Sis. I certainly wat proud of you, tonight.” Wondering who It was, she went to the phone und to her delight Juck’i welcome voice came over the wire. "I thought you'd like to know," h« said, "that It was all a mistake about father. He was on the train, but uu hurt." “Oh, I’m so glad," Eva cried. “Tot roust be. too." “Well." and bis voice was certain ly Joyous, “you can just believe I am But," and his voice betrayed emotion now, “I am sorry that I annoyed you this evening. I might have known l that you couldn’t care for me." Eva was trembling, but she man aged to answer. "Oh. you needn't be ' I've almost changed tny mind.” “Wha-what?" Jack cried. "Oh, you darling! I'm coming home on the first train In the morning and change that Inconsistent mind of yours for good.” And the telephone operator bad the audacity to giggle.
