HOW HUMMINGBIRDS BATHE. 
Not being acquainted with the bathing habits 
of hummingbirds, I put out an abalone shell as 
the most artistic bathing dish for her, but never 
to my knowledge did she pay the least attention 
to it, says a writer. 
One morning, in a shower, however, she 
crouched down on the wet blade of a dogwood 
leaf, and with head outstretched and rapidly 
fluttering wings, spattered the raindrops in every 
direction. 
She went from leaf to leaf until she had 
succeeded in getting her feathers wet. Then she 
perched on a twig, shook off the drops and care¬ 
fully preened her feathers. It is not improbable 
that in the absence of rain, hummingbirds use 
the dewdrops in early morning.

BEAR HUNTING IN PENNSYLVANIA. 
Bear hunting will be good in Pennsylvania 
this fall, as judging from reports made to the 
State Game Commission’s men bruin is not only 
abundant, but in some of the northern counties 
comes pretty near to being a nuisance. The ap¬ 
pearance of specimens is reported from many 
camps this summer, including those on State 
forest reserves.

Stanley Blake, Mgr., Berry, Ky. 
The bear season will not open until Oct. 1, 
and the law permits the killing of an unlimited 
number of the animals by hunters, and farmers 
and woodsmen probably will bag many through 
traps, although the use of steel traps is now 
prohibited. 
Bears have been reported in many of the 
Central Pennsylvania counties the last few years, 
some being seen within a short distance of Har¬ 
risburg, and in mounatin communities the farm¬ 
ers have been bothered by the depredations of 
bears close to barnyards and in gardens.—Har¬

Don’t Wear a Truss! 
Brooks’ Appliance is a new 
scientific discovery with auto¬ 
matic air cushions that draws 
the broken parts together and 
binds them as you would a 
broken limb. It absolutely 
holds firmly and comfortably 
and never slips, always light 
and cool and conforms to every 
movement of the body without 
chafing or hurting. I make it 
to your measure and send it to 
you on a strict guarantee of 
satisfaction or money refund¬ 
ed and I have put my price so 
low that anybody, rich or poor, 
can buy it. Remember, I make 
it to your order—send it to you 
—you wear it—and if it doesn't satisfy you, you send it back to 
me and I will refund your money. The banks or any responsi¬ 
ble citizen in Marshall will tell you that is the way I do busi¬ 
ness—always absolutely on the square and I have sold to thou¬ 
sands of people this way for the past 30 years. Remember, I 
use no salves, no harness, no lies, no fakes. I just give you a 
straight business deal at a reasonable price.
