THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 81 1906.
The Montgomery advertiser., 1906-03-11

One day a young lady entered department store in Boston and asked to see the room where pet canary and other birds weSe kept on sale. Con- ducted thitherS her sympathies were aroused by the uncomfortable condition in which she found the little singers. Their cages were hung in draft. their feathers were ruffled, their eyes were duIled.
 'where are the other birds, the ones you keep in stockT' she asked.
 They were in the basement, she was told. Permission was given her to vis- 1t these also. On entering the base ment room she was met by an offensive odor She looked at the cages. The water the canaries had to drink was stale and the cups contained feathers, seed shells and rubbish. The smell arose from the uncIeaned drinking cups and the stale water in them. The birds themselves looked sick and unhap~ py.
 The young lady made no comment but asked to see the man who bought birds for the establishment. He re- received her most politely, She told him of the bad plight in which the birds were. He, not being born bird man, did not know of it. Neither was the attendant who took care of the canaries born bird man, and neither did he understand their pitiable condi- tion. He took the best care of them according to his lights.
 DO you mind" asked the young lady of the buyer, If go through that

4 still larger increase Is shown in miscellaneous apparatus" which to- tals S25, ,000, ,O06. The only nanutao- turers who have stood still are the makers of electrical clocks In tho lighting field the gains have been enor- nous.
 Trade authorities say that the in dustry will continue it's present rate of progress indefinitely. In every part of the country the spread of electric lighting. the telephone. and lately dom estie use of current Is taxing the faeil- ities of manufacturers and central sta tions. The lowered cost of gas does not appear to effect electrical advance in any direction where they come Into competition. The greater safety. con- venience and healthfulness of inoande- scent and arc lighting are giving 1t A popularity that gas no longer riv- als.
 The Miscellaneous output of elec- trical appliances includes household de- vices that are now coming Into general use for the first time. Everything, from a curling iron in the boudior to a washboiler in the up-to.date laun- dry can now be heated by electricity. The electric kitchen. wSlere few coils of wire toke the place of the coal or gas stove, will in a few years be as common as the electsrlc car.
 Prophets of the electrical age" say that the element of cost. where it en- ters at all. can no more cheek the ad- vancine era of electricity than the cheapness of stage coaches could pre- vent the adoption of the steam en- zine.

 What are these for7' asked. They are for the birds to play with" was the answer. Birds delight, to play with dolls. These small onesf are for tife canaries to amuse themselves with. We had one parrot who took doll to sleep with her every night regularly. Birds are like children in many ways" N. The indefatigable bird woman also looked after the condition of canaries that are shipped to this country from Germany. Sometimes as many as &C., 900 come on one ship. Rats used to devour many of them until Miss Pope brought 1t about that large wire screen room should be made for the birds cages. and these should be placed within it at night.
 How did you learn all these things about birds?" I asked.
 "Oh. just common sense and love for them,' said Miss Pope.

VIRGINIA POPE,
THE PET BIRDS FRIEND

though all animals appeal alike to her sympathy.
 T cannot explain the feeling that draws me to birds" she says, but somehow they always seem to me as if they had been humans"
 A strange incident happened once in a department store in Philadelphia Miss Pope's presence in the city was known and many bird owners sent their pets to the store to be treated or trained. Among the birds one day was pair of caged doves. The cage was opened. Miss Pope standing near. One of the birds flew straight to her shoul" der and laid it's face to her cheek. ca ressing her with its beak. It would not leave her till 1t was caught and re- moved. And ever after, when Miss Pope came to give her daily lecture, if the doves cage was opened this same bird would fly aloft, circle around and around, high over the heads of all pres ent, till 1t saw Virginia Pope; then 1t would dart down and nestle upon her shoulder. Sometimes 400 persons were there to hear her speak, but the num- Der mattered not. The dove invariably rose in the air, circled about till 1t spied her. then flew straight down upon her shoulder.
 T seemed always to have known that dove, and 1t seemed always to have known me-" says Miss Pope.
 It may be mentioned in passing that the birds friend mostly paid her own expenses on these trips to instruct peo- pie how to take care of their feathered pets. It was a pure work of love for her. She was born and brought up in

WHY KIDNEY DISEASE
 IS DANGEROUS.
Neglect of the First Warning Symp. toms is the Prime Cause of so Many Deaths from the Dreaded
 BrIght's Disease.
It is Easily Durable in the Early Stages.

Kidney diseases are so destructive to human life because they do not manifest alarming symptoms until the constitu- ton is seriously weakened and the strength exhausted. Then, too often, the remedies employed by many physi- clans are of indifferent or doubtful value, and the patient rapidly sinks under the disease. The wisest course is to apply 2 reliable kidney ana liver remedy on the first abbearaNee of the symptoms. A little uneasiness in the small of the back, digestive troubles, bowel irregularities and disorder in the urinary organs are matters of small moment in the estima- tion of strong men and women, yet they have a serious meaning. They show clearly that the kidneys are suffering and need help, which must be forth coming at once to prevent serious, per- haps fatal consequences. A few doses of Prick1y Ash Bitters at this time would prove of incalcylablc value in restoring the weakened organs to health. An investment of one dollar in bottle of Prickly Ash Bitters when the disease is yet in the early stage will save hundreds of dollars in doctors bills, besides the suffering that would surely followshould the disease be allowed to fasten itself in the body. The excellent curative power of Prickly Ash Bitters is not confined to tue first stages of kidney disease. It is equally eficacious in severe or chronic cases. Physicians have used it as last resort in cases that defed their best efforts, with the most brilliant results, and 1t has shown it's superiority over the many so-called kidney cures, now being loudly advertised, in instances innu' merable.
 Accept no substitute Insist on having
