Better Late Than Never.

1t is a common thing to hear
middle>aged or even young men
say that their eally schooling was
deficient in quality or quantity,
or that they neglected the oppor,
tunities they did have, at the same
time admitting that, bad it not been
thus, they would succeed better IN
life. Many people are daily wast>
ing opportunities by which they
could make up for these deficien-
clps. and even at late period CT
life, secure the advantages and
pleasures of an education.
If many Of our young people
would employ their leisure hours
by Systematically pursuing some
course OF reading or study, it would
go very far towards securing a good
education, and one that would be
of value in any station IN life.
Time is precious gift, Use it
wisely while young, and it will
weld you a golden harvest when
YOU become old.

A Fair Parrot Story.

| (Selected,)
| L mo was an inmate Of our house
for many years, and during that
time seemed to become almost a
mem Der of the family, so peculiar
was his character and so marked
bis individuality. He was a pretty
parrot, with such lovely sEsdes With
green on his shoulders and sush
brilliant red on his wings that we
children thought him the very par.
agou of parrots, writes correspon-
dent of the Globe Democrat. How
macy times have | seen him sidle
up to mother wheD she would be
a little pale and still, climbing up
to the back of her chair, lean over
her shoulder and pear into her face,
asking sympathetically: "Whars
the matteI' Got a headache?"
My sister Nell was little fond of
standing before the glass, and
whenever Zeno caught her there
he never failed to climb to the
bureau and strut back and forth
before the mirror, exclaiming: "Jost
see us! Amt we prett,e" until
Nell was fairly driven away.
One ofZenos chief amusements
was worrying the chickens. Ee
would spend hours in the poultry
yard, and would slowly slip up be-
hind hen that was scratching or
was taking q dust bath, and would
tweak her feathers numerically,
sometimes pulling them out and
the hens would run cackllng and
squawkiDg away, while the parrot
would walk up and down snd
chucKle, as nearly as a parrot can.
In few moments the hens would
forget the incident, and Zeno would
select another victim ani begin
to sidle arolnd to surprise her in
turn.
On one occasion, however, ZenO
made a slight mlscalculation. He
succeeded in slipping up to the hen
he had selected, and tweaking her
feathers with great vigor prepared
to step back and enjoy his usual
chuckle; but the hen proved to be
new rooster which brother John
had brought home that morning
Mother heard a wild Tipping Of
wings, cackling aud screaming, but
did not hurry to see what was the
matter, as Zeno was always crea-
ting a disturbance among the fowls.
When she went at last she met Il mo
comlug in ut the back door, bis
head covered with blood, and every
feal her Iumpled drag2led aud dirty
"Why, poor Zeu,! What has
bappened" cried mother in d.smay
but Zeno wadded past her, ex
claiming.
"Never mind me! Go and tend
to the hens'
He had bitten the ROSTERS bill
of. and Johns prize had to be kill
ed, but Zeno never had any TASTE
after that for slipping up on unwarN
hens.
