AN OWL THAT DROPS SOLEM-
NITY TO PLAY LIKE A KITTEN
The snake replaces the cat as a
mouser in some families of the tro-
pics, we are told; but an owl, ac-
cording to Alfred Steidle, writing
in Kosmos, Stuttgrat, is equally
more entertaining and agreeable,
In describing such a bird, kept by
him as a pet, the writer tells us
that:
In summer the bird has a small
perch on the kitchen porch, and ir
winter he may spend the night in
& cage hung in the kitchen. He
likes to fly about freely and alsc
likes, best of all, to sit on some
boughs fastened to the kitchen
wall. He has the entree to the
woodshed, where he hunts for moths
and other prey. There he has a
nest, which he visits at the mating
season, when he calls alluringly to
his mate, beating his wings. When
the breeding season is past, the
feeding of the young birds comes.
While the male eats very little at a
time, he carries everything he can
to his nest, uttering caressing notes
and displaying tender affection fox
his family, but great fierceness to-
ward strangers. Children, especial-
ly, he falls upon viciously, trying to
bite their feet, and often flying at
their heads to do a bit of clawing,
although, happily, he never attacks
the eyes. Many visitors take this
as a great joke; but sometimes
there are tears, and children will
not venture near the kitchen when
the bird is there.
The owl is fond of mice. June
bugs, grasshoppers, and night moths
are special dainties. However, he
enjoys white bread and milk, bits of
meat and boiled eggs, taking for
dessert green lettuce leaves or elder
blossoms.
It is rather surprising to learn
that this bird is very playful, in
spite of his tribal reputation for
gravity. - He will push about a bit
of wood, like a kitten playing with
a ball. and he likes to lie on his
side like a cat,
He displays remarkable pati-
ence, and when spoken to listens to
every word, holding a conversation,
so to speak. He does not take it
amiss when he is shut up. He goes
traveling very quietly, shut up in a
pasteboard box with a hole cut in
road journeys he gives much pleas-
ways particularly admire his beauti-
ful eyes.
cry, gazing upward at the sky, one
may be sure that some bird of prey
tho it may be hardly visible to the
human eye. If, sitting on his kitch-
game he swoops to the floor.
tl stay away from the house too
long at a time he takes it very ill

PRINTED COTTON DRESS
GOODS DISPLAYED
IN GREAT VARIETY
Almost irresistible to the woman
who sews at home are the lovely
printed wash materials now being
displayed on every dress goods
counter. There is a type of cotton
material suited to every occasion
and purpose: Heavier fabrics for
sports wear, plain substantial wea-
ves for mornings at home, smooth,
lustrous, interestingly patterned ma-
terials for street and business,
sheer voiles and organdies fon semi-
formal afternoon or evening, and
many that have more than one use,
There is infinite variety in cot-
ton dress goods this year, but prints
predominate. These may be floral
motifs, stripes, or dots. Floral de-
signs with small and medium-sized
figures are used on many different
materials. Percales, voiles, batis-
tes, piques, dimities, organdies,
broadecloths, charmeusettes, and
zephyrs all show flowered designs
in fascinating colors. There is us-
+ Wn
ually some sort of connected, or
semicovered background. As the
e
on has advanced there is a no-
ble trend toward more white
and light-colored backgrounds.
Every imaginable color is seen in
these prints, but some of the newer
shades of yellow and red are pro-
minent, and there is more brown
than usual.
Dots are coming back in many
| ¢ :
| forms and sizes, Polka dots are |
among the “best sellers,” not only |
en they constitute the entire de-
sign, but in combination with flow-
er figures. Coin dots are somewhat
larger, and bubble dots irregularly
placed, with light flecks suggesting
rayety, are used on various fabrics.
Stripes are shown, especially on
s of contrasting colors, or in
* the pastel shades.
The Bureau of Home Economics
of the United States Department of
Agriculture has some help for the
home sewer, who returns from a
‘shopping trip laden with various
selections from among these charm- |
{ing prints. It has a comprehensive |
| free bulletin on fitting dresses and
blouses, which tells, among other |
points, how to make a foundation
pattern. With this in hand, no one |
need hesitate long over stocking
her wardrobe liberally with attrac- |
tive cotton wash frocks for hot
days.
