and has developed since the Civil War During that
conflict there had to be much secrecy IN regard

his military secrets closely, and his biographer
SAYS that he refused even TO allow President Lincoln

PARROTS FOR BACHELORS
The Birds Are Trained to Give CHEEKY
Greetings to Their Owners.
Pos

The owner of bird store in Boston
makes a speciality Of what he calls
" bachelors politics. The feature
which distinguishes these birds from
others of their species is their ability
to say; 5000 morning, old chap. How
luck to ,you,' and other sentences of
the kind.
''Talk about the old maid with her
parrot and her eat!'' said this dealer.
1.-The well-to-do bachelor beats her at
the game every time. Cats-real Per-
sians-are away ahead of the dog in
his estimation, tho most people won It
believe 1t; but the bachelors favorite
pet IS the parrot, nine cases out of ten.
II suppose their being so little care
has a great deal to do with it, A
parrot will stay in his cage all day
when his master is away, greet him
when he comes home, and, when the
door of his cage is opened, will hop
out, talk and play tricks and be gener-
ally sociable and entertaining for the
evening.
~ first got the idea of training
bachelors pollies from an old fellow
see about replacing pet parrot which
he had lost a short time BEFORE He
explained, with tears in his eyes, how
homelike it had been on entering his
apartment, to hear cheerful Hello,
old man, how are you9' And on leav-
Ing each morning, he said, he would
call .Good-by, Polly and the bird
would answer, 'Good-by, Bob, old boy. ;
Il suppose you haven't bird
who says anything Of that sort?' he
asked
II didn't just then, but it occurred
to me how many men came in for
parrots that talked, and how few of
them seemed satisfied with the birds l
displayed. I realized suddenly what
sort of a vocal accomplishment many
of them must want, and I WASH It slow
to act on the hint. Now I always
keep several bachelors pollies ON hand
] stand one of them by the door, and
