FACTS ABOUT FEATHERS.
ENORMOUS SUNS PAID FOR HATS. Apropos the lecture given by Mr. Rothery on the destruction of birds at the last meeting of the National Council of Womch according to Information received by the last English mail Lord Avebury bopes to get the third reading of i his Bill, which probibits the importation to Eugland of feathers for millinery purposes, car- `ried very soon.. · The consequence is that there
has beño a rush by those in the trade to buy all the feathers available at plume auctions, in anticipation of the prices rising to the near fötare.
**
LADIES LIKE OSPREYS,, During the latter half of last year 19,743-bird of paradise'skion, and 1,411 packages of the nesting plumes of the white heron (representing nearly 115,000 birds), were sold in London, while only a few days ago tho"produce of ovar 80,000 birds, including birds of paradise, king. fishers, parrots, albatrosses, pigeons, herons, and humming birds, and crested starlings- were sold by auction in Mincing. Lane. In ad- dilion 17 packages of osprey feathers, repre- senting the prodäce of about 7,270 egrets, were sold, clearly showing that Royalty cannot al- ways sway the fashions, for although Queen Alexandra bas expressed a wish that ladies should cot wear asprays in their hats, little at- tention apparantly has been paid to Her Ma jesty's desires.
"
The ospreys mentioned fetched on an aver. age about £hap ounce, and, as each' packet. averaged about 20 oz. over £17,000 wonb psprays were sold. Nearly £2 per skin is paid for birds of paradise, close upon £40,000 worth, therefore, being sold during the latter half of last year.
450 FOR A BAT.
These figures will give some idea of the enormous slaughter of birds for which millinery is mainly responsible. It is quite a common "occurrence for "an-English-society woman to pay £30 or 40 for one of the startling large bats of to-day. Six bushy white ospreys olen

"PAY, PAP, "PAYI”
The rent? I have to pay it,
And, with that peril past, The rates- grieve to say it-
Must, must be paid at last,. 'As kere I sigh," Alas i man
Has bitter cause to run!” The water and the gas man."
Insist on payment, 100. For fuel, food, and raiment,
Plain necessaries all, Come stera demands for payment,
And many a clamorous call.
Then, too, I can, alack I'see
Day after weary day, By train of tram or taxi
There is a fare to pay. And every day I'm seeing
With itch for payment cursed The food and foolish being
Who would assuage my thirst,
I to these harpies state-ali
Such payments I condama, For me they all are fatal,
If capital for them.

Ostrich feathers still hold their own in the millinery world, although they are not so cost ∙ly as ospreys, white heron plames, or bird of paradise skins. A rtin plume can be obtained for 51, and a beautiful lip for half that, umount WHY OSTRICH FEATHERS ARE CHEAPER..

farm by a young Englishman, Mr. Edwin Cans ton, the first man to rear ostrichen with success outrida South Africa. The taking of the feathers is quite a simple.ct. however, bas to be exercised, for the ostrich is very strong, and capable of infl.cling terrible injuries with his powerful legs. The bird selected to be plucked is enticed into a small wedge-shaped enclosure by a tempting basia of corn or sugar beet. Theh, before the bird realises what is to happen, a blinding "stock. ing" is clapped over his basd, and he`at once becomes as timid and belpless as a child.. One man holds him, while the other removes the feathers, The larger, plumes are cut, but the smaller ones are pulled out,
The plucking is done with the greatest care and skill, in order that the socket of ibe feather shall not be injured, and so spoil a new growth, No pain is caused the bird in extracting the feathers. The Society for the Preventions of Cruelty to Animals recognised this fact many years ago, and deemed the ostrich in so need of iti protection,

Da coming. out of church on Sunday the women, both old and young, threw themselves upon the flirt, and, ig.spile of her cries for mercy, tore all her ches off They then dragged her through the village by the hair of her bead, beating and Stoning her cartilessly.
