HAS BRIEF DAY OF SPLEND0R
Lizard Canary Has Well Been Given
Nickname Of mayor Of Birdie
Land"

The lizard canary Is one of the most
unique varieties in the cage-bird
world. Its beautiful ground color, SO
nicely licked, and pretty little cap"
make 1t a thing of beauty and joy
forever. 1t Is, however, the only va
riety that moults out It's p,umage at
the end of the first season. BY this 1t
is meant that, although the bird pos
sesses 80 beautiful coat for the first
year, the plumage disappears alto
gether at the second moult
Thus 1t is show bird for only one
i. e., the first-season, and this Is
considered a drawback to its popular
ity. On account of its wearing such
gay apparel for one year and then put
ting 1t aside, the lizard has been aptly
termed Mayor of Birdie Land"
The little story connected with the
lizard and a mayor is well worth re-
peating. 1t was wellknown bird

don, that this celebrity, in few we'll
chosen words, likened himself unto
the lizard canary, many grand speci-
mems Of which were on view at the
show. The stately robes which he
wore were only for season; such is
the case with the lizard.

The promoters of the fair are to be
congratulated on its success. Work,
hard work and lots Of 1t was necessary

of that community should get behind
the fair and help In everyway those
who are doing the active work as a
good fair is fine thing for a commu-
nifty.

HIS TURN TO MAKE MISTAKE
John Dawson May Have Meant to Be
Neishborly, or Perhaps He Thought
He Had Bargain.

$ Sam Showalter was having a sale OF
his surplus stock. To start the sale,
he led out a milk COW, one of the best
of his her1. and told the auctioneer
she was four years old. John Dawson,
long, leathery, weather-beaten fell
low with a shrewd eye, bid in the
COW. He gave Showalter a check for
the amount, and said he would come
for the COW the next day.
Il tell you, john" said Showalter,
when Dawson rode up the next morn
ing to lead home his purchase 81
made mistake yesterday. ] said that
COW was only four years old; but when
talked it over with the old woman
last night, remembered that she Is
eight years old. 1t was another COW
altogether that had In mind
II didn't want to let mistake like
that go with a neighbor," continued
Showalter, whose word was not usual
ly accepted as entirely dependable
in the community, $50 l thought the
fair thing to do was to tell you, and
just let you take your check back, and
I'll keep the COW"
Dawson squinted his eye approvingly
at the cow-she had every mark of
a good milker-and then looked ap-
praisingly at Showalter.
well, SAM" he said, turn about is
fair play You made a mistake yes

He has given the question careful study and would
