Every housekeeper should know
that If they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time. because 1t
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 Ozone full
pound-while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in A-pound pack
ages. and the price is the same. 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you a
12-oz. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose Of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let
tiers and figures "16 ozs." Demand
Defiance and save much time ana
money and the annoyance of the iron
sticking. Defiance never sticks.

A TALKING CROW.
Missouri Bird Is Loquacious.-How
He Amuses Himself.

That the American crow can CON
verse freely in his own language is
statement oft repeated by naturansts,
but that he can also learn to talk good
English is fact not generally known
even to his best acquaintance. IN
deed. it is not certain that every crow
has this capacity. In one case, how
ever, a common black crow learned a
deal of English. The crow in question
Is a well known resident of Cameron,
Missouri. and is the property of Ho-
mer MCGEE, the son of a carpenter oil
that place.
The bird is in the habit Of greeting
various persons whom he meets in the
streets in loud voice, though, aside
from a few words, his vocabulary is
little known to the ordinary citizen.
But at home he becomes loquacious
and his owner is sometimes compelled
to insist that crows shall be seen and
not heard.
One gray-haired woman relates that
she was leaving home on a certain az
ternoon when she heard cry OF
Grandma! Grandma" She looked
everywhere. thinking that her little
grandson had come. but presently saw
the crow peeping mischievously from
the house-top.
When the writer visited at his home
the bird called members of the family
Pa" Ma" Mora" and Homer.
His interrogative what for?" was In
terposed in various parts Of the con
versation with most laughable results.
He called the chickens to their food
clucked like hen and mewed like a
kitten It was said that he enjoyed a
dog fight above all else, encouraging
it in the beginning by shouting Hi
hi-hi!" and adding fuel by spirited
CALCULATIONS Of Sick 'em!" and Lick
'em!"
He plays with children, but fights If
they disturb him. He is neat in his
habits. taking a bath frequently, and
using as tub any vessel whatever
which happens to contain enough wat
er, having been known thus to honor
frying pan on occasion. He takes
the greatest pleasure in scattering
over the floor any nails which he may
discover. He allows nothing to grow
in his owners garden after its head
has once appeared above soil.-NeW

An authority says that American
women are, for the most part, more
Thorough, more intelligent. better in

agreeable to meet than their British
sisters. The average Englishwoman
is dull, idle, sluggish and incompetent;
the average American is busy, bright,
