whites and negroes pervades the
white population of the entire South,

her childhood in western Vermont.
At that time there was a strong 10

church people were arrayed UP on the
side OF not temperance, but total alb

Dr.. Josiah Hopkins, one of the most
famous Congregational preachers of
his day, had come among them for a
little while, and he said some things
about real temperance and personal
liberty that shocked the good .peonle
Of Vermont. N
Dr.. Hopkins happened to know that
most Of the deacons in the church

they were all given to ''tippling on

cessful in love. At last he had found

poor, and she loved the great world

her. There are many who do not diff

for the wedding was set and he began
to grow careless. She did not, be-
cause she had always been so. One
day they quarreled and she said some

Office at Detroit, and mingled with the words
that came over the line, and high above them,
was its discordant clatter. The ccckatoo hut-
tered her wings, struggled in the arms of
her owner, and looked everywhere for her
lost lover. There could be no mistake: she
had heard and recognized the voice of her
dear one
But to put their suspicious to the proof,
a paper cone top was fastened over the
mouthpiece at each end of the telephone,
and then the birds were brought up to them
to talk to each other.
Such another chattering and conference
as was held then it is safe to say never
passed between feathered lovers before
nor since. The delight of the cockatoo
was well worth seeing. What the gaudy,
feathered lover may have said to his faith
full mistress only could be guessed at;
but it no doubt set everything straight,
for the cockatoo consented to eat her break
fast that morning, and took up the burdens
of her life cheerfully after that.
Whenever she seemed downhearted they
would bring her up to the telephone and let
her talk for awhile with the macaw; which
seemed to make her contented; and at last
she forgot her old love and took up with a
new one.

THE well-known animal trainer Frank c.
Bostock not long ago owned two birds,
cockatoo and macaw, which struck
up wonderful affection for each other That
the love took deeper hold on the cockatoo,
which was a female, circumstances afterward
seemed to prove.
The lovers had perches close together
The macaw was an incessant talker, and
the cockatoo an equally good listener; hence
there were no family jars. The macaw found
his delight in preening his gaudy plumage
before his affectionate companion, and in
telling her that he was at" when it came
to the macaw family all of which the gentle
cockatoo seemed to believe and delight in;
for she was clearly enamoured of the gaudy
"wesket of her associate.
But the exigencies of business separated the
lovesick pair, the macaw being sent to Detroit,
while the cockatoo remained in Cleveland.
The faithful female lost her appetite, the
daintiest titbits she had ever known failing
to tempt her. She literally, to all appearances,
was dying slowly of a broken heart
One day Mr. Bostock had the cockatoo in
his arms in his office, when the long-distance
telephone bell rang, and he soon was talking
with his representative in Detroit.
1t SO happened that the macaw was in the.
