II anybody had suggested to Miss
May Forbes, Of Forbes Manor, that
she wiring the neck of the parrot she
had had for a pet for the last three
years. she would have given that per-
son a glance so awful hat a con-
gestive chill must have followed. That
parrot had a scream that could be
heard half a mile away against the
wind. She could say that Polly want

wards from her perch. When a
stranger called, especially a subscrip-
ton book agent with a large family
to support, she could inquire in ag-
gressive tones what in the devil he
wanted.
That parrot had a score or more OF
cute and cunning tricks. and there
was a bit OF sentiment connected with
her besides. A sea captain had
brought her back from a far.off land,
presented her to Miss May with his
love, and had then sailed away again

in the same month a similar fate met
him. Latham was also renowned as
a daring motorboat man.
