At ilrst tliftwght it is difficult to see the r«l«rt'.unship between the. common retlbivd. or cardinal, and the hinges of tlwvfmnt door. The explanation is slmp.lc enough, however, when the word's are traced to their source. The redbird was originally called a card- iiiitl because his plumage bore tha coloring of the hat. nnd cassock of a cardinal-’- o f the Roman Catholic chui'Hi. The use of the word ^“cardi nal\ as denoting a- dignitary of tlie church caiiievphout through the poetic fancy of an early pope, who spoke of- the cai.Miials jis “the hinges hy which all tilings are -moved” ln connection with church irovernment. In the Latin languaire “cardo, cnrdlnls,” is the equivalent of the English “hinge.\ For this reason the dljrnltary wax called a cardinal, as signifying his ■function as oue uf tbe. “hinges” of the church. From this early usage \card inal” carte to be applied to anything of prime Importance, Including the cardinal numbers, the cardinal points of the compass and the cardinal vir tues. The use of the word as apply ing to a eolor came about from tiie fact that the color was. the striking feature of the dress of a cardinal. This explains the use of tjie word In naming the redbird. Lapps Contented W ith Few Creature Comforts No one knows when the l.apps, came Into Svvedenf but for centuries tlii*- queer little people, a brunch of the Mongol tribe, have wandered about the mountains with their reindeer, liv ing a more or less nomadic life and bolding tlieir own In population, al though not Increasing ln uny number Purlug the summer months, when the reindeer are on the move, tlin Lapp rontenis himself with a birch- pole tent covered with canvas or turf, so that it may readily be moved from place to plui-e. Some of the homes have modern comforts, but as a rule the Lapp oiitttenls himself with very little, says the Baltimore Sun. In autumn the young reindeer are marked on the ear with their owner'!- name. At tIUs time there Is a gath ering of all the tribes, and, though t:> a stransiT all reindeer look exact ly alike, u Ln|>p will point out his own in th# herd with unfailing knowledge. Nor does a Lapp remove his neigh bor's mark. A Man's Prayer Teach tue that OO minutes make an hour.
