Theodore Droppieman of Jeffersonville is very low and his physicians stated his condition is uncertain, that he might pass away at any time, or that he might again recover and be better for a while, though his ultimate recovery Is practically impossi ble.

There is a man out in Kansas City who suffers from a peculiar delusion. In the course of his work as a cleaner of chimneys he has killed many harmless bfrds, and he declares that their ghosts have come back to haunt him in his old age.

Boys who are crule to birds ought to consider this man’s example.
