PARROT MISTAKEN FOR MAN

Philadelphia--Pat is a parrot owned

door of his cage was unfastened, Pat
made for the window and perched on
the sill of an adjoining bathroom win

Inside there was much splashing and
feminine laughter. Nora, the maid,
was giving her young mistress bath.
Not finding the soap in It's place. she
called to her husband. whose name
happened to be Pat:
Fetch the soap. Pat. and be quick
about it."
The parrot hearing his name
shrieked:
who wants Pat?"

Sister Maggie holds that rescue
work is often hopeless and that the
thing to- do is to fence OF the preci-
pice rather than to try to save the
pieces below. She recommends that
the churches of all denominations
bind themselves together to establish
properly governed women's lodging
houses or inns. She says the Catholic
women Of Belgium have accomplished
incalculable good in this way.
Her idea is that notice boards at
the railway stations and in the prin-
cipal streets should be put up telling
girls where such places are to be
found. The police, she thinks, might
be Of assistance to girls whom they
meet wandering in the streets al
night. Sister Maggie pronounces alb
solutely against the common lodging
house for women. 1T is no place,

woman can be sent"

London.-There is a wicked story

coming to London from a little sta
ton In South Wales and sat on the
platform ten minutes waiting for his

with ants, in whose nest he had been
sitting.
He first shook his coat out OF WIN

shook them the same way. Along
came an express on the adjoining
track and the garment was whisked
out of his hands. The appalled, cab
meter drew all the blinds and when
the train reached the next station
shouted for the station master and
begged him to supply him with trou
sers at any cost.
The garments couldn't be produced
on short notice. but the Official tele

The greatest menace Of the south is the
same peril that confronts the nation-the'
disposition of the people to leave the rural
districts for the towns and cities.
The whole population has caught the
fever, and even the negroes down our way
are forsaking the farms to take up their
abode in the towns.
Now I hold that under modern condi-
lions existence in our cities is fraught with
so much evil as to be destructive of char
acter.
Young people living in the big urban
centers think Of nothing but pleasure, and
