A Superstitious COckatOo.

"Our Joe" is fine specimen of tho
species known as the sulphur-crested
cockatoo.
He always showed great dread of
dolls or manikins, and this led us to
tease him by placing our pet Punchinel-
10 at the foot of his perch. Fear of the
uncanny thing kept him a close prison
er for some lime; but one day he came
cautiously down the upright pole, and
backed judiciously away from the rear
of the hated monstrosity. This pre-
voked new device; another grinning
figure was placed back of the stand
After long contemplation of the situa-
ton Joe" now managed to escape,
with much trepidation-from one side;
but gradually the entire collection OF
manikins was placed around his perch,
so that they laid siege to him. At this
"Joe" became greatly incensed. His
crest rose and fell every minute in the
day. Gt is a curious fact that it never
seemed to occur to him that he might
fly from the perch. He has never at
tempted to reach ii or leave it in that
way, but invariably climbs up or down
by means of his feet and beak.)
And now "Joe's" life began to have
a shade of anxiety in it, until at last
he became quite unhappy. One mem-
orable day, stealthily descending from
aloft, he dashed suddenly into the
charmed circle, and seized Mrs. Punch
by her wonderful frilled cap. Then,
with crest erect and eyes flashing-his
form trembling with rage and excite
ment--he rushed up the pole, and,
once moro safely aloft, he tore the of
Tending Judy into pieces, with an en-
ergy bordering on insanity. This tre-
mendous effort sufficed for the remain
der of the day, during which he sat up
on his perch with his feathers ruffied
and trembling.
So, one by one, the members of that
unfortunate family fell victims to his
hatred. For long time, he did not
dare to attack Punch himself; but he
finally mustered courage sufficient to
attempt the capture Of his arch-ene-
my, and, a few minutes later, the ter
rible toy, stripped of his gilt and tin
seled bravery, lay hopelessly broken
and disfigured, upon the fioor.-Frons
sour Joe," by Il. H. Stephens, in ST.
Nicholas for Novsmber.

The MORROW Gauge.

In regard to the proposed change of
the Toledo, Cincinnati & st. Louis from
a narrow to standard gauge, the Rail-
way Age says:
"This action will put an end to the
scheme ofa marrow gauge trunk line
between the East and Southwest, in
connection with the Toledo, Cincinnati
u st. Louis and the Texas & st. Louis,
the latter of which is also to be changed
to standard gauge. The establishment
of another standard gauge line from
Toledo to st. Louis parallel with the
Wabash will introduce disturbing
element in railroading in that part of
the country. AS narrow gauge road
the Toledo, Cincinnati & st. Louis has
not been able to accomplish much in
competition with the standard gauge
lines"

DR.. Newman says that Of all the let
tiers received by Gen. Grant from good
people who were solicitous about his
spiritual welfare tho one that touched
him most was written by an aged
Quaker and ran as follows: Friend
Grant; am stranger to thee. i

in Jesus. He will not fail thee"

brcllas are made everywhere so promi-

cept in summer, Japanese would

When the present Capitol at WASH
ington was opened, in 1918, the old
one was let to business tenants. Ono
of them, Anne Royal, ran two weekly
newspapers-the Paul Ry and the
Huntrcss-on the premises, and was
the originator of the American system
of interviewing. She was indicted as
o common scold in 1929. She lived to
the age of ninety-two.
The people buying country-seats in
England to-day are precisely of the
class who for some three centuries
have formed the bulk of purchasers
successful traders. Sir Beaumont
Dixie, for example, is descended from
Lord Mayor who over three centuries
ago bought Bosworth Park from an
Earl of Huntington; and his descend
ant now sells it to Mr.. Scott, whose
grandfather kept shop i'll Dumfries,
and whose father made money as a
manufacturer Mr.. Scott was at one
time brokers' clerk in New York.
Some time ago Prince Alexander of
Bulgaria proposed for the hand of a
Princess belonging to one of the great
reigning families. Although the lady
herself was not averse to tho match,
her parents secuted the idea, telling
the suitor he must rise q good deal
higher before he would be fit TO mate
with their daughter. The Prince took
this rebuff in good part, merely re-
marking: Every well, then, since you
will not accept mere Prince for n
son-in-law, must try to make myself
a King" This was regarded at the
time as II mere idle vaunt, but Prince
Alexantlor's present enterprise gives
the nj, ..nce something OF the char
acter OF II prophecy.

Possible Origin of the Phrase.

A number OF correspondents have
written to number Of newspapers
lately, inquiring about the origin of
the phrase "bloody Shirt SO often
used in the political discussions of the
present day. We know of no better
explanation than that given by Roscoe
Conkling in a speech made in New
York September II, 1880. Referring
to the "bloody shirt" he said: 1T is
relief to remember that this phrase,
with the thing it means, is no inven-
ton of our politics. 1t dates back to
Scotland three centuries ago. After a
massacre in Glenfruin, not so savage
as has stained our annals, 220 widows
rode on white palfreys to Stirling
Tower, bearing each on spear her
husbands bloody shirt. The appeal
walked Scotland's slumbering sword,
and outlawry and the block made the
name of Glenfruin terrible to victori-
Gus Clan Alpine, even to the third and
fourth generations"

Biscuit without Shortening.

It is a well known fact that most
people use too much lard and other
grease in their cooking, and that many
cases of dyspepsia are due to this cause.
Whoever teaches US how to curtail the
use of shortening is benefactor to his
race. 1t seems almost incredible, but
1t is nevertheless true that delicious
biscuit can be made without lard or but

In the Methodist Episcopal General
Conference last week the Manual of
Discipline by Bishop McTyeire again
came up under motion that the Col-
lege of Bishops be requested to publish
their decisions After considerable dis

part of the delegates are unwilling that
the Manual shall serve as O final arbiter.
"A large number of amendments have
been offered, looking to Il change of
discipline, but so far little disposition is
manifested to make changes. DIR. Ed
