TROPICAL BIRDS.
Sitting in front of the beautiful aviary which
contains the satin bower-birds, the laughing
kingfishers from Australia, the sun-bitterns,
and a host of other gorgeously winged creatures
from America, I felt as happy at the sight as
any of the little children surrounding me,
clapping their hands at the pretty playfellows,
brought up by their papas and mammas like
themselves, in the now approved kinder-garten
style, which inculcates lessons by making the
tasks appear like play. What a happy life
little children and little birds lead ! They vie
with each other for the love of us hard-hearted
