:aught to accomplish almost any act
hat Its owner wishes.
The birds are naturally fond of play
and to combine play with instruction
ls said by Edward Montague, an old
New Highlander, to be the best meth
cd of training. Montague's ancestry
dates back in 1868, when Richard Mon
tague settled in Hadley, Mass, and all
Of his descendants, of whom there are
more than five hundred in the United
States, take pride in displaying the
Montague coat-of-arms.
In addition to being proud of his
ancestry, Edward Montague is ex.
tremely proud of his flock of trained
cockatoos and some of his birds,
doubtless because of his training, dis
play almost human Intelligence.
-, The cockato is found in immense
fiocks in the wild regions three hun
bred miles west of Melbourne, Aus
tralia, and there they are easily
caught in traps. There are several
species, but those with the yellow
crest are the most beautiful as well
as the most intelligent.
1t is strange feature of the breed
ing of the cockatoo that the mother
bird matches her young in particular
ly torrid climate and then immedi-
ately flies away to some colder cline
where the young bird quickly attaina
It's growth. Another feature of the
bird Is that the crest is barometer of
feeling.
When incensed, the crest Is perccp-
tibly raised, while VIXEN the bird
sulks, the crest ia correspondingly
lowered. Naturally the bird is of a
vicious nature and one pick from the
sharp bill is sufficient to sever the end
of finger.
Training of the birds is an interest
Ing vocation and usually extends over
a period of two years. The individu-
al bird must first be taught to per-
form and then similar instruction has
to be given to the flock. The birds
can be taught to dance, engage in
chariot races, do stunts on the hori-
zontal bars, perform on revolving
balls and lastly to talk and swear.
The birds strangely pick up profane
words much more quickly than words
of any other type, and some cockatoos
know more profanity than anything
else.
They live to be more than one hun
bred years old, and some birds are In
captivity which have exceeded the
century mark. They do not require
any more treatment to sustain life
than a human being, and II they are
fed regularly and kept out of draughts
they contract no Illness. But they dis
like extreme hot weather, and those
in captivity always grow restless
when the hot sun shines upon them.

SUPERIOR REMEDY FOR Roup
First Thing 10 to Remove All tho
Healthy Fowls and Treat Affected
Ones Separately.

Roup may be known from an offens.
i've discharge from the nostrils ana
swelling below the eyes. The swell,
ing in some cases entirely closes the
eyes. This disease is known as roup,
and is difficult to cure. Remove all
the healthy fowls. Put the affected
ones In warm. dry shed or roomy
coop. Wash out the nostrils ana
mouth with warm water, using small
syringe to do SO; then put a piece OF
camphor the size of hickory nut
INTO one quart OF boiling water and
hold the fowls head over 1t for 10
minutes; repeat three times day,
Also give one teaspoonful of cod liver
oil at dose twice day. II the
swelling closes the eyes, open them
and syringe out the yellow matter
and wash with warm water into which
A drop OF carbolic acid has been thor.
oughly stirred. Fowls that are badly
diseased should be killed and buried.
Clean out the house, dust with fresh
air-slacked lime, fork up the yard and
spread over 1t a thick coat OF fresh
lir-slacked lime. Add a few drops OF
bromide of potassium to the drinking
water. Give no other water. This is
and best method to use.

for Propagating the Gospel Among
the Heather, or the Moravian Church.
as 1t is better known, Rev. Stecker
and his wife worked untold wonders
in bringing the Alaskan Eskimos
under the beneficial influence of civ
ilization.
Rev. Stecker, who Is still less than
sixty years of age, hardy and strong,
and so Injured to the Arctics that the
coolest weather of the past winter
was to him like a breath Of spring,
was sent, In 1884, with his wife, by
the general mission board of the
Moravian church. as a missionary
among the Eskimos of Labrador,
where he labored until 1900. Nearly
all the time he was. there his work
was beyond the timber line, IN the
most northern station.
While there. three children were
born to them, one son and two daugh.
tiers. He acquired knowledge Of the
language of the people to such an ex
tent that he could readily preach to
them. His children were sent to Ger.
many at the age Of eight to ten years,
where they were educated. They
never saw horse until, on their way
from Labrador. they arrived in Lon
don. In 1900 he was called by the
mission board to superintend the mis-.
sion work on the Kuskokwinro river
In Alaska, where he labored until
1910, when the illness of his wife
compelled him temporarily to resign
and return to the states, where, after
ten years of separation, the parents
and children were reunited.
Rev. Stecker in his work in Alaska
covered a territory about as large as
the state of Maine, but it's total popu.
lation Is only about $500. Increase
In the population Is slow owing to
the unsanitary conditions that abound.
Shgrtly after the arrival of Rev. and
Mrs Stecker there was an outbreak
of measles, and It reduced the popu.
lation by 1000 Such frightful con-
dition shows more than any amount
of preaching the need of missionary
work in the Arctic regions, one of the
chief aims of the missionaries being
to instill some idea of the value Of
hygiene and sanitation into the minds
of the natives. In this aim the Uni
ted States government is nobly fol.
lowing UP the pathway first cut out
by the mission workers.
