pOlIy's Sense.

Here is true parrot story. A lady living
in Colorado has a very clever parrot. but
like clever babies, it can rarely be made to
'show off" at the desired time. The owner
of the parrot one afternoon gave tea party
to dozen or more ladies, and Miss Polly
positively declined assisting in the entertain
ment of the guests.
Not one word would she say, but kept up
constant snarling and swapping that was
most inhospitable, even disgraceful.
While at the tea-table the ladies dropped into
the feminine habit of all talking at the same
time This SO Disguised Polly that she finally
condescended to speak, and in her angriest
tone she sneerngly shrieked:
"1a, va, va All talk at once! Cable,
gable, gabble!"

Hypophosphites, the two are combined, and the
effect is wonderful. Thousands who have deriv-

There was once a king lived before

This was a beautiful palace. 1t was in

were green, blue and white. which
were tied by cords and silver rings.
His bed was made of gold and silver.
The persons who were Mt the feast

CATTLE IN TEXAS.

A remarkable change in the cattle
rearing business in Texas is announced
by the Texas Live Stock Journal,
| which declares it to be 1.-THE confirmed
opinion Of nearly every thinking man.
in the state that ''the day Of selling
young stock is about over" That
Texas is one of the finest breeding
countries in the world is generally ac-
knowledged, and if there were = ready
sale for young stock at remunerativo
prices, ranchmen would prefer to sell
their animals young rather than raise
them to maturity. But, it is com
planned, under the impression that cat
tie could not be matured profitablv in
Texas buyers in the northwest have
been taking advantage OF a supposed
weakness, attempting, by means of
quarantine laws, rings. and corners, to
get the stock at their own price. Re-
senting this treatment, the Texas stock
owners have taken a remarkable
course. In order at once to prevent
overstocking and to improve their
herds, they have "almost universally
it is said, resorted to the practice of
rendering all but the best of their heif-
ers incapable of breeding. The idea is
that, instead Of raising vast hordes Of
young cattle that they must get rid of
at some plice, they will be able to fat
ten a smaller number almost entirely
on grass. In another article on The
Future of the Range Interest" the
same journal says: 1--WE are as ccr-
tain that a shortage in the beef supply
of the United States will be discovered
shortly and lead to higher prices Us we
are that only by the assistance of the
farm will the beef supply BE- proiitably
increased Values, it is stated. are
already one-third higher than they
were in 1880, and there are now no
more new free ranges for cattle in the
United States.
