A BIRp's FUNERAL.-A novel funeral
took place It Hartford recently. A pet
canary died few days ago, to the great
sorrow of the family who owned her.
Jenny was dressed in a handsome en-
broidered white dress, and laid daintily
on her left side in fancy box, which
was covered and lined with white tarle-
tan. The foot-board of the box was
taken out in order to allow the embroid-
ery-several inches deep-to hang out
and one little wing was made visible
over the side of the box. On each side Of
this miniature coffin stood Jenny's little
seed cups, with their half-eaten contents.
Around the cups were arranged some deli
cate blue forget-me-nots. All these-the
coffin, with its precious contents; the
seed cups and the forget. -nots-were
arranged inside the cage, which was
tastefully trimmed with white tarletan,
and stood on table before an open win
dow. Large numbers of children. and
also adults, called to see the imposing
paraphernalia, on Saturday. Yesterday
the funeral rites were performed, after
which a procession formed in line, the
mourners coming first, and all that was
mortal of poor Jenny was deposited with
due honors in her mistress back yard,
where an appropriate tombstone will be
raised to her memory.-Haryord Times.

"P. W.-PoIsoN"-W Women can't read
q boys nature as men can, and they
might as we'll own it up. The Sibley

the serpent's tooth when she wrote to the
druggist: "Send me a half bottle of
port wine. and write On the label, p. w.
