A Revengeful Parrot.

Imust begin by stating that l never
cared for parrOts-in fact. as a child, l
distinctly feared and disliked them. One
of my earliest recollections is that of a
parrot kept by one of my aunts whom
often visited. 1t seemed peaceable and
quiet enough, and had much freedom,
when 1t would meander gently about the
room, neither taking notice of nor modest
ing any one. Emboldened by this con-
duct, l thought I might venture to tease
poor Polly, SO creeping under the table,
I very gently pulled its tail.
Deeply moved and incensed by this in
suit, Polly flew straight at me and bit my
finger. l acknowledged the justice of the
punishment; still, in fright and pain, l
screamed aloud. when my nurse and aunt
flew to the rescue and restored the out
ragged parrot to her cage. The next day,
on being let loose, it flew straight at me,
and tried to peck my eyes out and bit my
cheeks; it never forgot or fOrgave the in
jury, but tried to bite me whenever 1t
was loose, flying at me and pecking wher-
ever it could, till at last it became a sort
of nightmare and terror to me, and l re-
pented in tears Of the wrong l had COM
mitted against it. Full of years and
hatred, it at last yielded up the ghost, to
my peace of mind and it's mistress re-
gret.-Cornhill Magazine.

Dropping in at A. F. Burners studio
one day that painter said that jefferson
had called on him but half an hour pre-
viOusly, and on seeing some of his newer
work expressed surprise that he should
have departed from his Venetian sub
jects, which had commercial value
higher than anything he had then under
taken. "Confound it," calculated Bun
ner .you wouldn't have q man do one
thing all the time, would your" The
words had barely left his lips when he re-
membered that jefferson was to play Rip
that night for the thousandth time or SO,
and he hastened to gloss the assertion,
but the actor WINGED and flushed, show
ing that the dart had gone home. He was
readier in his reply to slight by Charles
Mathews: 1t Is better to play one part in
different ways than to play many parts
all in one ay"-Brookly Eagle.

Begging for Old shoes.

The sight of heap of more or less we'll
worn shoes at my bootmaker's led me to
ask him what he did with the boot gear
his customers left when they replaced it
with new. Il used to sell it to the second
hand dealers" he said, but now give it
away. Men come in here every day to beg
old shoes, and it IS rarely that l have q
dozen pairs to spare" He added that the
same call is made on the hatters FORECAST
off hats. The problem as to what become
of the pins is still unsolved, however. L
see that some German genius, with an ev-
ident weakness for useless knowledge,
has, after many years of minute and ex-
haustive calculation, decided that a few
over half "a million pins are lost every
day in Europe alone. As the rate is prob
ably uniform the world over, il suggests
that the earth must be the biggest pin
cushion within the ken of mortal man.
In Berlin by the way, there is an old
clothes charity, where cast-off clothing is
mended and dispensed to the needy by
some charitable ladies, who solicit and
collect their stock from house to house

Y9p0ng q little song to-day
1t waS not sad, 1t was not gay

Y0Q0lng little song to-day
1t waS mot sad, it was not gay
The very theme was nigh Outworn.
Two lovers met, IS lovers may;
They had not met-since yesterday;
They must not meet agatn-till Inorni
And did they meet again, my dears
Did morning come and find them here
To see each others eyes again!
Alas, on that you are not clear;
For hearts will shift as winds will veer.
And love can veer like any vane.
All! no, think some sudden craze,
Some bitter spite befel their days;
What was that plaintive minor for?
No more together lie their ways;
Remote, perhaps, the lover strays-
Perhaps the lady comes no more
So strange the numbers sob and swell;
No; there's no guessing what befell-
1t is the sweetest song you sing;
Not sad, and yeti cannot tell;
Not glad, and yet-'tis very we'll
Like love, like life, like anything
