There is an idea that the brilliantly
colored parrots do not talk. There Is
no reason why they should not. and
many possess the initiative instinct.
One of the most richly coored of all is
the purple capped lory. from the Mo-
luccas Its whole body is crimson and
rose, its wings are green and its crest is
purple. 1t is a thicksct bird. like big
bullfinch, and can be highly educated.
1t Is tame and gentle, an excellent
"linguist' and mimic. never shrieks
and is very amiable. 1t is also ven
triloquist
1t is worth noting that some Of the
lorics, which are very fond of flowers,
have been poisoned by being given Ia
burnum blossoms. There is a belief
that parrots should not be allowed wa
tor to drink. but only sOppcd food. We
believe that this is Il mistake which
causes them great misery. They are
not great water drinkers. and some
species can go without 1t for cOnsid-
erable time; but in their native state
most Of those that have been observed
come regularly to the water holes to
drink.

IIOYY He Announced II.

There was Il minister in little Ne
braSka town who had two matters
which were very close to his heart, He
had prayed long and earnestly that the
mortgage Of the church might be paid
off and that he might have son and
heir. Not long ago boy came to
gladden. his heart and home. and on the
same day the rich man of the village
died, leaving $1,000 with which to pay
off the church debt.
The town was wild with excitement
over the double event. and bets We're
freely made us to which subject was
closest to the minister's heart and
which he would refer to first in his ser
mon on the following Sunday. The
evcntful day arrived. and excitement
ran high. There was an eXpectHnt
hush when the minister entered the
pulpit.
"My friends" he said. you know
what has been close to my heart for
many years, and you know of the JOY
full happenings of the past week; and
now, my friends, | want you to join
with me in thanking God for the sue
cor that has been sent us"
And then all bets We're Off.

NEW WAY TO RAISE MONEY
How the "Picture Club" Helps New
England Town.

Five years ago n picture club" was
organized in New England town.
Twelve members, six of each sex, We're
enrolled. Each member owned n cam
era or borrowed one. 1t was agreed
that during the summer each would
take as many photographs of various
spots in the town or its vicinity as
possible and would try to induce 9th
ers outside Of the club to take pictures,
says Ladies' Home Journal. The pho
tographs were to be of little known
hooks of beauty, familiar spots or
snapshots of people.
On Oct. all the photographs that
had been taken were handed into the
club. \ committee of five was then ap-
pointed to select the best, the names
of the owners of the photographs not
being disclosed to the committee.
The best 100 were selected, made
into slides and an evening selected
when in the town hall the club would
show the pictures on Il screen. The ad-
mission was fixed at % cents. When
the evening came. the hall was crowd
ed. The familiar spots took on new
attractivcness. Little known spots of
natural beauty at the very threshold
of the town We're revealed, and well
known citizens and neighbors were
shown in amusing attitudes.
The picture club exhibition" has
now become the event of the season"
In the town. 1t has an element of fun
as well as inspiration about it and Is
SO easy of carrying out that the idea
should commend itself to other towns
as Il pleasant and profitable method of
entertainment.
The capacity of the hall is taxed,
and as supper is served after the
performance. for which an extra %
cents is charged, the edibles being con-
tributcd. the sum of money raised each
year is always a handsome one. The
money is given to some special town
object

Science For Its Own Sake.

A promncn: feature in Faraday's
character was his absolute love of sci
ence for his own sake. lie freely gave
his discoveries to his world when he
could easily have built up II colossal
fortune upon them. lie once told his
friend. Professor Tyndall, that at II
certain period of his career he had def
nitely to ask himself whether he should
make wealth or science the object of
his life. lie could not serve both mas
ters and was therefore compelled to
choose between them. When preparing
his well known memoir of the great
master. the professor called to mind
this conversation and asked leave to
examine his accounts, and this is the
conclusion the professor arrived at:
Taking the duration of his life into
account, this son of Il blacksmith and
apprcIAice to Il be Okbinder had to de-
eide between n fortune of t1on.0oO on
the one side and his uncndowed science
on the other. He chose the latter and

GRASS AND FLOWERS,
Illinois Central spnrinE No Expense
to Improve It's stations.

This year promises to be a record
breaker in floral and plant propagation
and the Identifying of private and pub
lie places in both city and country. The
Illinois Central Railway company has
commenced to build at Champaign, ILL.,,
three immense greenhouses, the object
being to produce flowers for the deco
ration of station grounds and the tables
of dining cars of the system, says the
Chicago Record-IIerald. Besides the
greenhouses there will be capaciOus
nursery. In which will be produced
hardy plants and trees to be used in the
Improvement of company property at
many different stations.
This Is one Of the most extensive
movements so fur inaugurated by the
railroads. 1t Is In line with the inno-
walton Of the state normal schools in
establishing departments of floricul-
ture and forestry and the efforts Of
many of the larger towns In forming
associations for the beautfying Of
homes. The Illinois Central people have
appropriated $1,000 to start the work
at Champaign, and this Is to be the be-
ginning of an improvement that will
decorate the grounds of all of the prin-
cipal stations. The decoration Of each
station grounds will cost from $50 to
$50.
or the plant to be established ut
Champaign each greenhouse will be
a hundred feet long and twenty one feet
wide and will be equipped with all
modern appliances for the agation
and preservation Of plants. Engineer
Baldwin, In speaking of these improve
ments, said that the company has been
moving in this direction for several
years.
I'VE find that these improvements
lead to similar movements on the part
Of the people at towns where we have
trimmed up station grounds" said the
official. mo sooner do we plant our
grounds in grass and flowers than the
owners Of abutting property tidy up
their premises, and soon trains arrive
and depart from stations of pleasing
surroundings. Mr.. Harrahan commence
ed the work on the Louisville division.
The Bloomington division was also
made to bloom and blossom clear along
the line, and the new plant Mt this
place means that we are spreading

EXERCISE AND EATING.
Remember That II Tired stomach II
Weak stomach.

A good dinner ut night is necessary
fur those whose pleasure or work keeps
them up very late. But for ordinary
folk who dine at & or 4 and 20 to bed
about 1880 only n light wholesome re-
past should be taken at the end of the
day. when muscles and nerves are
more or less exhausted.
\ tired stomach is IL weak stomach"
h golden rule to remember. Yet how
Ofton one hears people say, I've been
rushing about all day and am tired to
death; must have Il big meal to make
up for it, You may put the big meal
into the stomach. but you cannot make
the stomach digest II.
\ belief lives strong in the hearts and
minds of the majority Of mankind, in
Guiding persons of weak digeStions,
that Il quick, brisk walk taken before
meal gets up an appetite and helps
the stomach to digest the food. Now.
this is exactly what it doesn't do. EH-
ercise spreads the blood throughout the
body. For the proper digestion of food
the blood is needed in the stomach.
Few realize this important fact
After long, cXhauSting walk, bicy-
Gle spin or any severe physical or men-
tai strain take Il good half hours rest
in n comfortable armchair or lying on a
sofa before you cat a substantial meal.

4 Telephone whistle.

When the earpicce of a telephone re-
ceiver Is held to the mOuthpiece of the
tIyinsmlttcr. Il more or less shrll tone
or whistle is heard in the receiver. This
occurs when the apparatus is in good
working condition and when the trans
mfttpr is on short circuit. This effect
Is seemingly due to n series of reactions
ana k)gous to but much more complex
than those which occur in an electric
beN when its circuit is closed. \ move
ment Of the diaphragm of the receiver
toward its magnet tends to weaken the
pressure on the carbon of the transmit
ter, which causes a weakening OF the
su~ent, allowing the diaphragm to fall
awax, with the further result that the
mir column is compressed, increasing
the pressure on the carbon again and
also increasing current strength, where
by the diaphragm in again attracted,
and this action is repeated over and
over again.-Cassier's Magazine.

The Human Mouth.

II has been discovered that the hu-
man mouth is slowly but surely and
steadily moving toward the left of the
face, which will in time bring it some
where in the ncighborhOod of the left
ear All the five great races of man
have an uncomfortable tendency to eat
only with the teeth which grow from
the left Jaws. This wears out the left
teeth more rapidly than those on the
right side of the mouth, and this in
turn gives the upper and lower jaws
an inclination toward the left.
n N the expressed opinion of many
xfe1fists who are foremost in the
w,Rhfs roll of professional honor that
Ml the course of time the mouth from
causes above mentioned will have COM
pletely changed its position and that it
Will then be situated rather nearer the

OrIentnI Rugs.

"Oriental rugs" says New York
dealer. "are nearly as standard as gold.
When an auctioneer sells you one for
$500. you may think you are getting it
cheap. but you can get it at about the
same price from any reputable dealer.
Every rug house has its agents at auc-
tions, who pay mighty close to the mar
kct price for the genuine article. When
you ihave had an oriental rug for ten or
fifteen years. it is worth more than
when you bought 1t, provided it is in
good condition. 1t Is then an antique.
