AN EDUCATED SPARROW.
Bird Whose Accomplishments Rival
Those of a Maepie.

Monsieur Mignaud, a French scient-
list, has recently complied some inter-
esting information with reference to
the musical accomplishment of a spar
row in his collection of living birds.
He captured the sparrow o after
it had been Matched, and fed it by
hand until it could care for itself.
Then he placed it in a cage containing
a chaffinch, a g%oldfinch and two an
aries. After a time the sparrow learned
to MARBLE like the finches and to trill
like the canaries, the limitations be-
ing SO perfect as to deceive the ear.
In the spring M. Mignaud is accus-
toned to keep a box of crickets near
his b~ird-cages. Two days after the
crickets had been placed near the
cage containing the sparrow the latter
began to initiate their cry informing
ling it with its songs. Even after the
crickets had long been dead the spar
row remembered its lesson and con-
tinued to repeat their cry. None Of the
other birds attempted to initiate the
crickets.
~Singularly enough, the sparrow new
err utters the peculiar cqualling cry of
it's own species, having been removed
from the nest too early, apparently,
to have learned it.

Ought to Change Their style.

When a man goes out to speak to
them any harm by holding up false
ideas of life and confusing young peo-
pie as to the meaning CT success. The
commencement speaker has much to
answer for along this line. Boys and
girls have been told sc often about
the success of big men and so little
about the success OF those who,
though not born great, made the most
of themselves and lived happy and use
full, thought not famous lives, they are
apt to get the wrong idea about what
success really means; and because they
can't all be presiden. or governor,
IS they are falsely tolu they can be,
they are apt to think that they can't
be anything. The value of education
Is dwelt upon as a mean to achieve
wealth or fame or both. This is why
there is SO much error as regards the
true value of education. which
simply that each individual should be
trained or educated to use to the
greatest advantage whatever powers he
has, be they large or small. But be-
ing told that education means that a
boy will necessarily become a govern
or or a senator or occupy some other
high place, many people have come to
think of education only in this sense,
and SO when they see a man who has
been to college and been educated"
and does no good in life, they say that
education does not pay. The COM
mencement s~ky-scrapers ought to get
down to their business and find what
education really is and then talk about
it, and stop the meaningless jangle of
words that often have more sound
than sense.-Monroe Journal.

Are said often to be buried six feet under

their family physicians, suffering, as they
imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from
heart disease, another from liver or kid

and in this way they present alike to
themselves and their easy-going or over
