A Word to the Wise.

The proverbial advice, "Cobbler, stick to your last" had an opposite exemplification in the following anec- dote, for which Zion's Advocate is re- sponsible:
 A colored man was brought before a police judge, charged with stealing chickens. He pleaded guilty, and re- ceived sentence, when the judge asked how it was managed to lift those chickens right under the window of their owners house when there was a dog in the yard.
 Hit wouldn't be of no use, judge" said the culprit, "to try to splain dis thing to you all. Ef you was to try 1t, like as not you would git yer hide full O shot, an git no chickens, nei- ther. Elf you want to engage in any rascality, judge, yo' bettah stick to de bench, whar yo' am familiar"

Everybody In Hard Luck.

Suddenly he stepped up to gentle man, who was waiting for the tram, and, tapping him lightly on the shoul- der, said: Excuse me, but did you drop a five-pound note?" at the same time holding out in his hand the ar ticle.
 The gentleman quetioned gazed a moment at the note, assumed an anx- ious look, made a hasty search of his pockets, and said: "Why, so did, and hadn't missed It," holding out an eager hand
 The elderly hunter took the name and address of the loser and, putting the note in his pocket, turned away.
 Well" said the other, do you want it all as reward?'
 "Oh, did not find one," remarked the benevolent one with another beam; "but it struck me that in big place like London there must be a quantity of money lost, and upon in- Quiry I found that you are the one hundred and thirty-first man who lost a five-pound note this morning" Lon don Answers.

Sparrow Sets House Ablaze.

An English sparrow was the cause of three houses catching fire at Law renceburg, Ind, recently, and had it not been for the prompt work of the neighbors and friends all would have been destroyed. The sparrow was building nest under the caves of the home of Mrs. Mary Webber, and it picked up a long cotton string from a pile of rubbish that had just been burned. With the burning string in its beak, the sparrow flew to the roof of Mrs. Sophia Shafer's house, then to Otto McCright's house and then to the roof of Emanuel Wuest's home, where 1t dropped the burning string. A fire started in the shingles of each building Each was extinguished by neighbors before much damage was done

BLUEJAY LIVES IN WOODS
Hawks, Owls and Other Birds Are Teased and Tormented by
 These Noisy Birds.

The bluejay likes best to live In thick woods, but it often comes into open fields, orchards and near dwell ings in search of food. When 1t dis covers you it assumes a proud and angry air of conceit and defiance.
 The bluejay's upper parts are pur- plish-blue. The lower parts are pur- plish-gray. The wings and tail are bright blue with FIack bars. The tail feathers are tipped with white. It has crested head.
 The bluejay builds its nest about twenty feet above ground. It is made of twigs and fine roots. From four to six eggs are laid. They are of a greenish drab color fecked with brown.
 Doubtless the bluejay helped to name itself, as it's common utterance is long drawn, jay, jay, jay" This cry, with the bright blue color, has given 1t its name.
 While the jay sings no song it Is able to initiate the calls of other birds, by which means it often at tracts them. It likes to tease and torment the owl and especially the lit tie sparrow hawk. This is done by Initiating the cry of wounded bird, which draws the hawk near. Then several jays will dart at the hawk squealing and frolicking about in great glee. Sometimes the play ends in tragedy, for the hawk pounces upon one of them, to the dismay of the others. Jays may be caged and tanned like crows and some writers say they can be taught to utter words.

MAST TREES FOR THE GROWN
Mark of the Broad Arrow Was Placed on Pines In Plymouth
 Colony.

In the provincial charter of 1891, under which the Plymouth colony and the province of Maine were united with Massachusetts, 1t was provided that all trees of the diameter of "A inches and upward at 12 inches from the ground, growing upon land not heretofore granted to any private per son, should. be reserved to the crown for the furnishing of masts for the royal navy. Harper's Weekly ob- serves.
 A surveyor general of woods was appointed to Sc that this provision of the charter was carried into effect. Near the coast all white pines of suit able dimensions were marked with the broad arrow"-three cuts through the bark. with an ax, like the track of a crow. This was the kings mark.
 Long after the revolution had oblit- erated the royal authority men who had been taught in boyhood to respect the kings mark hesitated to cut such trees.
 In felling tree it was necessary to bed it" to prevent it's breaking. This was done by cutting the small growth and placing small trees across the hollow, so that there should be no strain upon one section more than upon another when the monster pine struck ground.
 The mast was hauled out of the woods on one strong sled, whether in winter or summer, and so many oxen were required that the hind pair were often choked i'll crossing hollow, be- ing hung up in their yoke by the pull ing of those ahead of them.
 A mast hauling was great event, and everybody within walking dis tance came to see 1t.
