OI 109 stomachs which pimed under the writer's notice 7 contained the remains of smaller owls, Insects, such as grasshoppers. crickets, May beetles, and other coleoptiera, are frequently taken. In some localities crawflsh form s considerable portion of this owl's food, and frogs and iish occasionally are eaten.

WHY I DRINK?

The Waslungton Herald invited prominent women of the National Cztjiital to tell why they did or did not drink. The replies received are an interesting psychological study. i ,In introducing the subject the Herald snid: "Each individual has to nmke his or her own decisions, setting the individual, pace. The subject of drinking is more purely personal than any other. And atill the individuals choice affects those who surround him to a greater ex- tent than the action he takes 1h imy other direction."

The writer of the first letter tolls how she learned while abroad "to sin a little claret with my mealii:
