mo one better try it," answered
grandpa. ''Once boy tried TO steal two
kilograms, but the parrot pounced upon
him and gave him such pecking and
nauling that he was glad to drop them.
But of course the parrot has partner.
Don't you see him?"
In the rear of the booth there was a
lad of about Harry's age. He had moth
ing to do, however, but watch the papers
and the box, and to come forward and
make change now and then.
Grandpa gave Frolic some pennies,
and pointed TO the two piles of papers.
Ito show that he wanted one of each.
Frolic knew how to buy things. Be-
side he had been observing the scene
closely. He flew from Harry's Shout
der to the stand, and in his blue cloak
and cap, and hoped along on one leg,
holding the money tightly clasped in
his other claw.
| The parrot newSdealer was very
much surprised to see his queer Gus
toner, and was on the point of driving
him off. But when he saw the other
parrot gravely drop the pennies into
the box, just as all his patrons did, he
smoothed down his feathers again and
said ''Thankee," as usual, while Frolic
dragged away a paper from each pile
| in his beak.
Harry and Frolic were talking now
with the boy, who told them the bird S
name was Ned, and Frolic thought he
would be friendly. too. "How do you
do he called out politely. The other
bird looked him over sharply and then
croaked out: mo time to chat! You
clear out! Paper, sir? Extra Sun
telegram"
Presently, messenger boy stopped
to watch the droll newsdealer. Ned's
bright eyes always saw whatever was
going on. AS soon as he caught sight
of the boys uniform, he screamed ::
"Hie, Buttons, hurry along! No idling
here!"
"Oh, please!" put in Frolic.
Ned cooked his eye at him. You
clear out!" he croaked. Then, turning
to the messenger boy again, he re-
marked: Come, hurry along! Hurry
along!" till the little fellow had to CO.

uankerchiefs next season will be
gaudier than ever before. They will be
of all the colors of the rainbow, in sol
ids, stripes. plaids, polka dots and fig
ures. Even white ones will not be
plain, for, when not heavily embroi-
dered, they will be lace trimmed, not
with one edge of lace as heretofore, but
with several lace frills placed one above
the other and on both sides OF the hand
kerchief, for the fashionable article has
neither right nor wrong side.
Many samples shown have centers of
solid colors-colors, not tints-with
borders in contrasting colors, plaids,
checks, polka dots and pronounced
floral designs. Other handkerchiefs
appear to be thin bits of colored muslin
over which small flowers or leaves are
strewn. To a careless observer they
seem nothing more or less than hem
stitched squares of printed lawn. Close
inspection shows a linen of the dain-
test quality. with a regular and gen.
orally highly artistic design, stamped
as distinctly on one side as the other.

black or contrasting colors are to be
used by travellers and should always
correspond in color with the toilet.
Travelling handkerchiefs should never
| be lace-trimmed.
| One of the newest and daintiest hand
kerchiefs to be seen is of sheer white
or light colored linen muslin, with q
triple border of finely-plaited footing.
The footing. of course, is always white.
There is no hemstitching, the first row
being whipped on a rolled edge, while
| the second row is put on, one row on
either side of the handkerchief, just
above. This handkerchief, though so
simple that it could be easily made at
home, is especially dainty looking, and
adapted to go with the most elegant
toilet. Frills OF lace are put on in a
| similar manner, sometimes as many as
six rows being used to the side. OF
| course. one great trouble with these
dainty bits of lace-trimmed muslin will
be the difficulty of having them washed
but the dealers say this objection is
| overcome by the narrowness of the lace
After washing, they need only to be
rubbed over with the iron, and when
taken out for use the lace is pulled out
between the fingers, making the hand
| kerchief much fresher in appearance
than it would be were the lace pulled
out on leaving the wash.-N. Y. Sun.

Dye see that dog?" said the con-
Guctor of suburban car, as he pointed
to water spaniel lying in shady
yard. The newspaper man, says
the ST. Louis Republic, admitted that
he did, but there was something in
his tone that seemed to indicate that
he saw nohing remarkable about the
animal.
"Well, that's the smartest dog in this
town." said the conductor. "Most of
the boys know him, especially the mo-
tormen, because he is the most per-
sistent deadhead you ever saw.
"Oh, no. He doesn't get on the car
like the tramp dog, Owney. He would
scorn to ride in such commonplace

and he does it because he enjoys the
ride.

How to Remove Cinder..

When travelling always carry a tiny
boy of fiaxseed for possible cinders, is
the advice given by medical journal.
The instant foreign substance is felt
in the eye throw back the head and drop
two or three fiaxseeds on the ba II of the
eye. and lift the upper lid and draw t
down over them, so as to hold them in
There is no disagreeable sensation at
tached to putting the seed in, and the
relief will come instantly. The mois-
ture of the eye dampens the seed, and it
gives out mucous substance which
spreads over the eye and covers the
grit. After awhile the seeds will begin
to work out, and will bring the offend
ing particle with them.

secret of favoring with coffee lies in
having this essence so fresh and pure
that it has the delicious aroma of

and begin to beat the cream with Q fine

cover it tightly, sealing the edge OF
the cover with mutton tallsw, and
pack it away in a pail covered With
cracked ice and rock salt. Three quarts
of salt are sufficient for pailful OF ice
The mousse should be packed away
for about six hours. If the mold is
large in diameter, it may be opened
once and the frozen parts removed
from the sides with knife. If the mold
is slender, it should be left undisturbed

BIRDS BUILD HOUSES.
And Then They Decorate Them I'm a
Really Artistic Manner.

And Then They Decorate Them i'm a
Really Artistic Manner.
There has just been discovered by
government ornithologist tribe of
birds in the island of New Guinea which
show themselves excellent architects
by building each for himself little
house on the ground.
Of course, the house that the bird
builds is not an elaborate pile of brown
stone or even bricks. 1t is made merely
of twigs and pebbles, kept together by
the Intervening of the tall, dried grass
peculiar to the wild fields of New
Guinea But it answers it's purpose
just as well in keeping off the rain and
sun, and no wind can knock down the
house, owing to the ingenious manner
in which the bird selects a site.
The birds have received the temporary
name of garden birds, owing to the
fact that they fence in a little plot
around their houses, for no other APP
parent reason than to let other birds
know that the inclosed plot is priva tie
property.
When the male garden bird takes a
mate he selects some level spot in the
fields where he finds a tree not more
than two inches in thickness at the
base. With this tree as a center post
the bird builds his house of twigs
leaves, pebbles and grass, and when
finished it is a cunningly wrought man
sion, shaped like bell, and with two
stories. In the upper story several
small openings are left to act as win
dows, and the ground floor has one large
opening which serves for entrance as
we'll as to let in the light. +
When the house is finished the bird
erects circular fence, two inches in
height. around the house, and thus in.
closes a plot three feet distant from il
at every point.
The interior of each house is dec
GRATED with fresh leaves, the wings OF
beautiful insects, pretty feathers which
other birds may have shed, gayly-col
cred berries, and even the beacheG
skulls of birds that have died in the
fields long before.
The gardens of the birds are strewI
with wild blossoms, and when these
wither they are carefully replaced
