The RhfnOcerOs Bird.

Among the birds not commonly found
is the rhinOcerOs bird, from the Trans
vaal. Buffet pikker is its Dutch name.
Its habits are remarkable and its plum
age unusual. Small flOcks accompany
most of the large antelopes, the buffa-
lOeS and the rhinocerOses in South Af-
rica and run all over the creatures
bodies, picking off flies and insects.
When an enemy approaches the buffet
pikkers sit in line with heads raised
on the back of the animal they are at
tending, like sparrOws on roof ridge,
and signal 1.-The enemy in sight" The
plumage is curiOusly close, uniform and
compact, so much so that the bird has
an artificial look. as if covered with
painted satin and not with feathers.
The general tint of the body is cinna-
mon brown, with yellow beak and legs.
giving the color effect of a brown and
yellow iris.

GIN our Almanac for many years past we
have given unusual advice to those afaic-
ted with coughs, colds, throat or lung
troubles or consumption. We have told
them if they did not receive any special
benefit after the use of one 75-cent size
bottle of German Syrup, to consult their
doctor. Owe did not ask them or urge
them to use large number of bottles, as
is the case in the advertising of maay
other remedies. Our confidence in Ger
man Syrup makes it possible for us to-
give such advice. Owe know by the ex-
perience of over IS years that one 75-cent
bottle of German Syrup will speedily re-,
lieve or cure the worst coughs, colds,
bronchial or lung troubles-and that,
even in bad cases of consumption, one
large bottle of German Syrup will work
wonders. qNew trial bottles, 25c.; reg
ular size, 75c. At ali druggists.
