Mark Twain on Blue JAYS.


"There's more to blue jay than
any other creature. He has got more
moods and more different kind of
feelings than any other creature !;
and mind you, whatever a blue-jay
feels he can put into language. And
no mere commonplace language,
either, but rafting out.and. out book
falkland bristling with metaphor,
too-iust bristlingt And as for COM
mand of language-why you never
see blue jay get stuck for want of a
word. No man ever did. They just
boil out of him. And another thing,
I've noticed a good deal, and there's
no bird, or COW, or anything that uses
as good grammar as blue jay. You
may say cat uses good Grammar;
well, cat does-but let cat get ex-
cited once; you let a cat get to pulling
fur with another on a shed, nights,
and you'll hear grammar that will
give you the lock,jaw. Ignorant peo-
pie think its the noise which fighting
cats make that is so aggrayating, but
it amt so, it's the sickening gram
mar they use. Now, I've never heard
jay use bad grammar but very sell
dom and when they do they are as
ashamed as human; they shut
right down and leave.
You may call jay bird. Well,
so he is, in measure-because he's
got feathers on him, and don't be ong
TO no church, perhaps but otherwise
he is just as much human as you be.
And III tell you why. A jays gifts
and instincts and feelings and inter-
ests cover the whole ground. A jay
will lie, a Jay will steal, jay will de-
ceive, a jay will betray and four
times out of five jay will go back
on his sOlemest promise. The sacred
ness of an obligation is thing which
you can't cram into no blue-jay's
head. Now, on top of all this, there's
another thing; jay can outswear
any gentleman in the mines. You
think cat can swear ; well cat can !;
but you give blue-jay subject that
calls for his reserve powers and where
is your cat? Don't talk to mel
know too much about this thing.
And there's yet another thing, in the
one little particular of scolding-just
good, clean out.and-out scolding, a
blue-jay can lay oyer anything, hui
man or divine. Yes, sir, a jay is
everything that a man is. A jay can
cry, jay can laugh, jay can feel
shame, a jay can reason and plan and
discuss, a jay likes gossip and scam
dial, a jay has got sense of honor, a
jay knows when he is an ass Just as
well as you do-maybe better. If a
jay isn't human he'd better take in
his sign, that's all.-Jima Baker, IN

Boy Brigands.

The existence of an extraordinary
organization in the village Of Mark
ham, Ontario, has been discovered.
1t consisted of several young boys,
who, prompted by yelIow-back liter
allure, formed themselves into band
for the purpose of burglarizing resi-
dences in the village. For several
months they have been emulating
the deeds of professional gentle
men," whose evil careers they en-
deavored to initiate. and they have
been singularly lucky in escaping
detection and capture for so long
time, although large number of
houses were entered by them and
great deal of plumber obtained. They
are all sons of respectable. wealthy
parents. They used to meet near the
Presbyterian graveyard in a cave.
Each sWore fearful oath to remain
true to the band under any circum-
stances, and in case a betrayer was
found among them he was to die the
death of a traitor. The father of one
of the boys was the first to receive
midnight visit. This gentleman kept
a hardware store. and from it were
stolen reyolvers and bowie knives.
All the money and yaluables stolen
were carefully secreted, so that no
plumber would be found upon any
one of them in case of suspicion and
search. Their plan was to retire at
night, as usual, and ne soon as their
relatives were asleep to redress them
selves, step out of the house, and 90
to the point of meeting. At length
young fellow employed in bank
er's office was noticed by the bankers
wife to be acting in suspicious man.
ner. She watched his movements,
discovered him hiding some of the
booty, and then the whole story came
out. The stolen property was recov-
cred from the boys and returned to
the owners. Owing TO the high social
position held by the parents of the
young culprits compromise was
effected whereby the offenders were
not prosecuted.-N. Y. Times.

Messrs. Hiscox & Co. call especial attention
to the fact that after April Is, 1888, the name

simply P1Yke7.s Tonic. The word "Ginger'
is dropped for the reason that unprincipled

will be no change, however, in the prepare
