TROPHIES FOR FURNITURE.
Stuffed Parrot the Queen's Fruit
Stand- Wales Dumb Waiter.

London, Nov. 20.-The fad for trans
ornamental articles of furniture has for
sonie time been prevalent in England. De
cc;=sed pets, also, are no longer buried and
o.gttten, hut are sent to the taxidernist,
who shortly returns them stuffed and
mounted to again take their places in the
family circle.
When the Prince of Wales visited Russia
he brought back with him a hugebIacIl hear
Which he had shot. 1t was his intention
SO ifavethe skin alone preserved, but at the
earnest entreat yof the princess he was pre-
vailed upon 10 have it stuffed; So it Vas
sent TO taxiderniist. 4 few weeks Later,
wien the prince entered his Stacking room
at Marlborough House, lie Was surprised
th tfnd the big animal standing before
him with tray, on which were q botole
of spirits aud number IF glasses.
Since then it has been the aspiration Of
every sportsman to have a hear in ! is all
or smoking room. One Of the largest
stuffed bears IS in the Possession Gf tie

Wien the pet parrot belonging TO the
Prince of Wales persisted in the claws of his
favorite cat, it was considered too beauti-
ful to cmisign to Mother Earth, so it was
mounted as flower and fruit stand and
presented t0 the Queen ON her seventith
birthday, and is now useful oruamenU in
