was his constant companion by day
and night One day friend, who
was going away short time. brought
Gautler a parrot, to be taken care OF
during his absence. The bird, finding
itself In strange place. climbed up
TO the top of It's perch In n rather
frightened manner Madame Theophile
had never seen parrot before and
regarded the creature with manifest
surprise.
After period spent In profound
meditation, summoning up all the no.
lions Of natural history she had picked
up In the yard. the garden and on the
roof. she plainly came TO the conclu'
sion that the newcomer was green
chicken. This result attained, the
next proceeding Of Madame TheophIle
was 10 lay herself fiat on the floor
like panther watching her prey.
The parrot did not like this at all; II
rufiied It's feathers aud ratified Its
chain uneaslly. Then Madame Theo'
phlle came creeping nearer, her nose
quiverlng. her eyes half closed, while
slight thrills of pleasure ran along her
backbone at the idea Of the meal she
was about TO make. Another moment
and she sprang upon the perch.
The parrot instantly Strengthened up
and said In n deep bass voice. Have

that she sprang backward. All her
archaeological ideas were overthrown.

ing rooms and bed rooms pure. Have
a. constant circulation. If possible
have no drafts. To this end do not
open windows or doors opposite to
each other. Sometimes one window
may be opened from the top and an
other from the bottom. If this method
still causes drafts a chair with bas-
ket thrown over the back may be
placed before the window open from
the bottom All bedding should be
thoroughly aired every day. Be care
full and do not put it before an open
window or door on damp foggy
morning, because then the blankets
and sheets are apt to be damp at
night and cause the person sleeping
under them to take cold.
Each morning on getting up fill the
lungs with free oxygen by taking long
deep breaths and then exhaling SLOW
ly. This method does much towards
freeing one from the dull drowsy feel
ing so common to some people for a
couple of hours in the morning. Oxy-
gen is life-giving food for our bodies,
and all activities are either directly
or Indirectly dependent on the amount
of oxygen in the lungs.
