The Peacock's Pri.aa

The old story that if a peacock is
Invested OF the beautiful feathers that
constitute its tail he will hide far from
the sight of man and beast. in sheer
shame and disgrace,-was tested over on
Owens island not long since. Capt
Jimmy Owen is the proud possessor OF
a peacock. Some of the colored farm
hands heard the story about pulling out
the tail feathers, and one day decided
to test it. They caught the strutting
fowl and one by one plucked out the
feathers. The following morning the
peacock was missing He came no
more for his meals and was mourned
as dead until a few days ago, when he
reappeared in all his pristine glory.
with full complement of tail feathers.
He has now rehabilitated himself in
his old spectacular position, and the
darkeys who played the trick to test
the tradition are satisfied the story is
correct

rates. His wealthy patients pay him
handsomely, his poorer patients give
what they can afford. and the extreme
ly poor give nothing at all. All get the
same treatment. The system appears
to have its advantages, but there are
grave doubts as to the practicability
of its adoption in America 1t might
resolve itself into a similarity with
the payment Of taxes on property, the
principles of which are so well known
that feature is made of the fact that
