THE BEST PARROT YARN YET.

A man whose niece had coaxed
him to buy her a parrot succeeded in
getting bird that was warranted a
good talker. He brought it In a cage,
stood before it said: "Say Uncle,
Polly" The bird did not respond, and
after repeating the sentence dozen
times or more with no better success,
the uncle put his hand into the cage,
and grabbing the bird by the neck
shook him until his head wabbled
around, all the time yelling to him:
"Say uncle, goll darn you; say uncle!"
The bird looked limp and lifeless, and,
disgusted with his purchase, the old
fellow took the parrot out into the
yard where he had coop of thirty
chickens. Thrusting the half dead
bird IN with the chickens, he ex-
claimed: "There, by gosh You'll say
uncle before you get out ?" Next
morning the uncle went out to see
how the parrot was getting on. Look
ing into the coop he counted twenty
nine dead chickens, and In the center
of the coop stood the parrot on ono
foot, holding the thirthIeth chicken
by the neck and shaking it till its
head wabbled' and screaming: "Say
uncle, goll darn yer; say uncier'

A LIAR FROM LIARSVILLE.
Wilmington pa.) Globe.

Wilmington Pa) Globe
A farmer living near Pulaski, while
out walking across his farm one day
last winter, shot partridge, and on
crossing the Shcnnago where the bird
fell he stopped to pick it up, when
something warm and of a mucila-
ginous consistency fell upon his head.
This he soon found was honey, and
examination discovered that the bull.
let from his gun had penetrated bee
tree after passing through the pat
ridge. lie returned to the house and
secured three large tubs and two milk
pals, all of which he filled with
honey.
While securing the honey he noticed
peculiar movement Of the tree
which seemed to expand and subside
at intervals. Passing to the other
side, awidc seam was apparent and
he learned that the tree was hollow.
From this he succeeded in cxtrcating
32 coons which had taken up winter
quarters therein, the peculiar move
ment of the tree having been caused
by the united breathing Of the coons.
Nor was this all Of his remarkable
adventure, for on attempting to cross
the river the ice gave way, and lie was
obliged to swim for a short distance.
When lie arrived at his home, lie had
about IS bass in his coat pockets, and
few had found lodgment in his
boots.

A Georgia drummer was talking to
crowd of the famous "blue snake"
of Florida. The drummer said ~ was
workin' in the field one day with mig
ger, and niggers are scared to death OF
blue snakes, when he give yell "Blue
snake!" and went fyin.' l didn't know
which way the durn snake was comm,
so l took after the Niger, and we
went out Of that field like two strcakes
of lightning, leavin' our hoes standln'
up in the furrow. What became OF
the snake don't know, and l didn't
go back to see until next mornin' and,
by gum! what found there surprised
me about as much as anything ! hal
met up with in Florida. The snake
had hit my hoe handle plumb in the
center and it had swelled up so that ]
got a thousand shingles, 10000 feet OF
weather boarding. four cords Of fire
wood, 100 fence rails, enough floOrin'
for the Baptist church and 500 barrel
slaves out OF it," The listeners ex.
pressed their belief vigorously. "And,'
concluded the drummer, when he
could be heard, "that hoc-handle was
still swellln' when we got to the 81
mill"

LIVE THE PRESENT.
Monroe (Ga.) Advertiser.

Monroe (Ga.) Advertiser.
One barrier to the progress and
prosperity Of many people in their
tendency to look backward and live In
the past. This is a mistake, a fatal
error. The past IS gone, and is gone
forever. Our fathers, grandfathers
and ancestors generally lived in the
past. That was their time. Their
mission has ended; they are gone
with the past. They did much; they
did we'll; we should do more; we
should do better. We have their
achievements upon which to build.
Those, our noble ancestors as stated,
lived in the past. Because this Is
true we should not look backward and
attempt to live when they lived. We
are the moving actors Of the present.
TO do this we should seize the advant-
ages Of the past has brought us, and
the opportunities that are before us
and prosecute them with an energy
and zeal that knows no tagging.
The improvements we have for prose-
cutting all avOcationS are indeed Su-
perior, and there open to US who are
the owners and occupants OF this
country now, channels to success and
successful attachments that are en-
couraging and inviting. To take ad-
vantage Of these Improvements that
are our heritage and to follow up these
channels we must live in the present,
we must be active, energetic, wide
awake, availing ourselves of all the
powers with which we are endowed,
and prosecute our undertakings with
diligence and with fixed determine.
tion to reach the goal OF our purposes.
We must not look to those things
hidden behind the curtain OF the by.
gone, nor stand like mOtiOaless stat.
utcs, scattering the poison of inac-
tIvity and the spirito non-enterprise
among ourselves, but look to our pres.
ent surroundings, the means at hand,
the opportunities within reach, the
avenues open to US and under the
spirit of industry, persistent activity
and application turn these things to
the accomplishment Of the best possi-
BILE results.
Thousands Of men are in compara-
tive Indulgence to-day simply because
they have failed to live in the present,
because they closed their eyes to their
surroundings, and would not use to
profit the opportunities within their
reach. AS the running stream when
blOckaded, nu matter to what extent,
will find an outlet, so the spirit OF in.
dustry, persistence, and perseverance
exercised wisely in the present will
rise above opposing obstacles and at.
tain the goal of It's aspiration. The
man, the men or the people who really
live in the present, no matter what
the opposition, will not stand upon
the plane of non-progressiveness, but
will move onward to further achieve
mentS.

the only corner stone on which you

IL SORROWS come and burdens are
to be borne, there is rest in the future
and peace that passeth understand
ing. Look up, for skies are still blue
and star still shine. The sod covers
nothing but bodies, for souls are too
noble for the companionship Of the
earthly. The loved one whose cold
hand gives you no responsive pressure,
whose eyes look no longer into yours,
is not in the churchyard, but in
heaven; not beneath the flowers
which you have wet with your tears,
but in that home not made with
hands, whence she comes to you, ever
and anon, an invisible but -beneacent
presence. And after a little, your
days work done, you will enter the
cloudy region and emerge on the fur
tller shore, where she and many an
other will give you warm and heav.
enly welcome.

The man who makes the best of things
With riches can dispense.
Since heaven has endowed him with
A fund Of common sense.
Though he may live in poverty
lie has Il happy lot,
Because he doesn't sit and mourn
For what he hasn't got.
The man who makes the best Of things
Is tulerahiy rare.
But, when you find him, you will see
A man devoid OF care.
His rule of life is slmple-just
To do his level best,
And then he does some resting
And lets others do the rest.
The man who makes the best Of things
He knows where he Is at,
lie is Il true philosopher,
And to him doff my hat.
But when run across II man
Who's always finding fault
know, without your telling mo,
lie isn't worth his salt
