, Of the animals that we can coax about
our houses, the gray squirrels become
most friendly, says Country Life, in
America. Put nuts inconvenient places
and they will make frequent trips for
supplies, but only on comparatively
mild days will they remain long outside
their comfortable winter quarters, where
they usually have plenty of food stored.
In Central Park, New York, the gray
squirrels have become so accustomed to
being fed that they have, to a great
extent, given up storing food and rely
chiefly on what they can pick up each
day.
lied squirrels can be coaxed by means
of food, but they are very questionable
fellows; in fact, the general opinion is
decidely against them, owing to their
partiality for eggs and young birds.
Chipmunks hibernate in their under
ground homes, so we cannot count on
them for winter visitors. The cotton tail
will condescend to accept dainties in the
form of green vegetable (through one
seldom lias such luxuries in the winter),
but, as he comes almost entirely at night,
he is not a very interesting guest.
Xo feature of the collection of animals
near the Deer Park has more interest for
Pinehurst guests than the squirrel cage,
young and old being included among
those who congregate there.
'Exposure" Defined.
Popular ignorance of the meaning of
the term "injurious exposure'" is respon
sible for much sickness, says the New
York World. Initially the fault is due to
the lowering of the resisting power of the
body, because the same exposure which
may invigorate one man may kill another.
A walk in the open air even in a rain or
snow storm is not exposure in anything
like the injurious sense of a slight
draught in a heated room, damp clothing
or improper diet or excessive stimulants.
It is not exposure to fresh air, to sunshine,
cold or rain that is injurious, but exposure
to bad hygienic conditions.

The Holly Inn is one of the most attractive hotels in the South. Since it was
built in 1895, it has been necessary to enlarge it several times to meet the constantly
increasing demand. The interior is elegant, cheerful and tasteful. No modern con
venience is lacking. There are bath rooms, electric lights, steam heat and open
fireplaces. There is a call bell in every room, and all beds are furnished with best
hair mattresses. An orchestra furnishes fine concerts daily, and also provides for
dancing. The cuisine is unsurpassed. The waitresses are all white girls from the
North. Rooms for billiards and other games are provided in the hotel.
