AVaVM 9494s I sLiiiiiiiiB ALiiiiiiiiiMf femmm2!!mWm r vF if hil 3) (( psJ (I mwM nZjNr Tho parrot, for many years nome whnt out of favor as a pet, has of lato been steadily regaining popularity. He Is certainly a bird of brains and beau ty. Of his disposition less can be said in commendation; his speaking voice, however startlingly human, Is never mellifluous: and his laugh Is tbcro any sound more contemptuous, Irritat ing, malevolent, even fiendish, than tho hnrsb, shrieking laughter of a par rot? There Is also another fault, nlways to le mentioned with due cbnrlty since It Is not originally his own: his deplorable tendency to the use of pro rata laugunge. Indeed, the swearing parrot, with his Innocently profnno In trusions upon serious or sentimental conversation, has become a stock per sonugo In comic anecdote and litera ture. Poor Polly! Even when ho does not acquire bad language during his first voyage away from his native wilds, he mny learn otber things equally unde sirable. An old Indy who hnd returned Jndlg. nantly to the bird dealers one tine par rot whose manner of speech was that of Jack at sen In a storm, received lu exchange n beautiful green creaturo with a wise eye, recommended as of Impeccable conversation. "You'll find him everything he ought to be. uia'nni." tbev assured lr. "We'll warrant him twllte, refined nnd Innocent You see, ho was brought over in tho ladles' cnblii." In a few days sho returned, her bon net twinkling with wrath, bringing Polly with her. "You needn't tell me that parrot swore, tnn'nni!" began tho denier, when he saw her. "He couldn't swear; he don't know how; he never henrd an oath lu his life." r "Swear!" said tho Irate old lady. "No, he didn't swour; I'd nlmost rath er ho would Bwear. I hung up his cage lu tho dining-room, nnd for n few days he didn't utter a sound. Then one dny, when I hnd callers, ho began making tho most awful sounds per fectly dreadful sounds nnd kept It up crowing and choking and gasping in If ho never meant to stop; and then nt the very end he sang out feebly, 'Steward bucket!' Take him back and give mo a good, plain, evcry-dny, Htny-nt-honio canary-bird. I'm dono with parrots." Poor, poor Polly! Truly, his Immi gration and cducntlon are beset with dttllculttcH. In tho forecastle the sail ors are not sick, but they swear; In tho cabin, tho Indies do not swear, but they nro sick. VANITY OF THE DOO. It Kuuka with thut of the Muater or tho MUtrcaa. A dog's vanity ranks with his mas ter's, not to mention that of his mis tress. When a dog appears to poor advantago ho kuows It, nnd Is pitiably miserable. (Jlvo him nn opportunity to shine and he'll emhraco It speedily. Artists nlllrm that dogs who are too Inzy to poso may bo appealed to through their vanity. Just sturt lu to study tho points of nuothcr dog and pretend to transfer them to canvas, and very speedily Mr. I.azydog will come to Ills senses nnd not only offer but Insist upon being tho subject of tho painting. One woman whoso splendid pet Is u Great Dane was moved to put upon him nn old bodlco of her mother's. Kho was perfectly serious about It, so ho ciuno readily and put Ills front paws on her Inp. One pnw was thrust Into ono sleeve, tho other Into tho opposlto one, and then tho old-fashioned gar mens was carefully buttoned down tuo front. Tito necktie was knotted Jaunt ily, while the coat-tall part of the bod lco lltted smoothly ovor his shapely buck. lly way of a llttlo diversion tho own er of tho old bodlco was called. Upon entering tho room sho spoke to thu dog, quite surprised nt his appeurauco. Ho ran to her. Itoth laughed at the comic flguro he cut. He entered Into th spirit of tho thing with great gusto nnd capered delightedly about, pleased to inako a sensation. Such a sight! With necktlo and coat tails dangling and his shape carica tured by tho garment, ho made his owners laugh till the tears ran down their cheeks. They positively laughed till It hurt. At last tho poor follow discovered that ho was being laughed nt Instead of with, and straightway ho dropped his head as well as his tall and slunk Into n corner. He was even funnier that way tho black bodlco Just lltted his woe. It didn't take much more laughing to drive htm to tho cellar, whore ho remained a couple of days, a sadder If not a wiser dog. He was made quite 111 and could hardly bo coaxed to eat again. For a long tlmo ho looked suspiciously at anyoue who hiughed. And ull because he had been made ridiculous. Philadelphia Record.
