A jay Tentnring into a yard where peacocks were wont to walk, found tfcera a. number of feathers that had fallen from the peacocks, when they were moulting. He tied them all to his tail and strutted down toward the peacocks. "When he came near them they soon discovered the cheat,ana striding np to him pecked at him and plucked away his borrowed plumes. So the jay could do no better than go back to the other jays who had watched his behavior from a distance; but they were equally disgusted with him and told him "Outside show is a poor substitute for inner worth and "brains." - A store ' 'jay ' said yesterday his store showed greater display of women's wearing ap parel "than all other local stores combined" (change "greater" to "poorer" and you have it) and further insults the intelligent women of this community who shop 'round, by adding of ths third-rate de partments he talks of "The largest women's and children's garment business west of Chicago conceded the largest by reliable concerns and individuals."
