G.. A, R, Notice!

We take this opportunity of informing
our subscribers that the new Commission
er of Pensions has been appointed. He is
an old soldier, and we believe that soldiers
and their heirs will receive justice at his
hands. We do not anticipate that there
will be any radical change in the admin
istration of pension affairs under the new
regime.
We would advise, however that U, S
soldiers. sailors, and their heirs, take
steps to make application at once, if they
have not already done SO, in order to secure
the benefit of the early filing of their
claims in case there should be any future
pension legislation. Such legislation is
seldom retroactive. Therefore 1t is Of
great importance that applications be filed
in the Department at the earliest posi-
BILE date.
| If U. S. soldiers, sailors, or their wild
ows, children, or their parents desire in
formation in regard to pension MATES,
they should write to The Press Claims
Company, at Washington, ID. c., and
they will prepare and send the necessary
application, if they find them entitled I'M
der the numerous laws enacted for theil
benefit.

DIR. Franklin Miles, of Elkhart, Ind, the
distinguished specialist in diseases OF the
heart and nervous system, states that dlsor,
ders of the heart are as common as those OF
the lungs, liver, stomach, bowels or kidneys,
though often unsupported. The reason poo

because symptoms of heart disease are not

Raising Talkin. Parrots.

The talking powers of a parrot depend
to great extent on its being taken in
hand at a very early age. This would
be one advantage of rearing these birds
in confinement. Under such conditions
also it would be practicable to vastly
improve the speaking faculty by mating
the best takers together for generations.
Thus would be produced such feathered
eonversationists as are unknown up to
date. It would certainly be profitable
to breed and raise the parrots known as
Carolina parrakeets. These are rare now
and bring high prices, though they used
TO be very common as far north as Penn
sylvania and Illinois. At present the
few survivors are almost wholly con-
fined to scattered localities in Florida
and the Indian Territory. They have
been successfully bred in captivity. The
green Australian parrakeets of the sort
used by strolling fortune tellers on the
streets are among the easiest of birds
to rear.-W Washington Star.
