Smart Sayliijrs of ; - tlio
Bancy Creature.
"Doncher wanter doncher wanter?"
was the quick interrogative, and
"Don't I want to what?. was the
equally quick reply.
"Why, doncher wanter kiss me, yon
fool!" shouted the parrot.
The lady bent over the cag-e, and the
quarter of a century old bird in its sub
dued 'i-een dress imprinted a kiss on- the
lijis that eluded the feathered member
of the family with " You're a naug-hty
bird!"
The sharp eyes of the parrot for a min
ute wore downcast, lie studied the
sand in the bottom of the cape, but.
perkinfj his head erect, summoned cour
age and said in a doubtful way : 'ell,
1 don't know." '
Few persons know that there is a bird
hospital in Boston in Mount Yernon
street, and few know how interesting
birds are until they visit the convales
cent oiVs in their boarding house.
In the ward of the hospital there was
a colony of aristocratic birds from the
Back Bay and Brook line housed for the
summer. Their mistresses had gone off
to the seashore or mountains, and some
iiad crossed to the old world, but thej,
feathered pets were summering in the
West Knd. Irst by chi-.iiire ! 'atmosphere
Ihe liny things ctm tract a.sthr.m ov
bronchitis., for bird-shave lu::gs. and
very deiicate ones. too. and while in dnj s
gone by, like the babies of the slums, it
was the. survival of the fittest, tu-da-y
they are sent to a bird physic::'. n. who,
by treatment, restores vitality .to. tin
featheriess tlesh and sends the varbler
back to its hon e as fat as butter. with
its plumage as yellow as !-;;l. And, by
the way. the healthy canary is notable
for the yollowishiicsK of its plumage,
and may rightly be set down as an ad
vocate of the gold standard.
The bird hospital on .Mount Yernon
street has existed for live years, and
some of the bird:s there have been willed
to the keeper of the birds' boarding
house with a fund sufficient to maintain
them during their "mortal sojourn," us
the aged preacher would say. There
are Gil of them housed in comfort, and
by spending an hour among them one
learns many of their curious v. ays.
Some of the canaries have bells hang
ing in their cages, and one of them has
the habit of telling everyone about that
he is cross by pulling the bell. The
more ferocious he feels to his fellow -bifds
and his mistress the harder he
tugR away at the bell.
But there is ai-other kind of ''"bell."
and this t ime it is spelled "belle." They
call her ".fuliet.V for she is such an un
conscionable flirt; indeed, some of the
more prudent birds whisper more aw
ful names than that about, her charac
ter, for wherever Juliet goes a half-dozen
or more of her male admin rs follow, her.
and she has caused considerable jeal
ous feeling in at least one bird colony,
and she's-quite a young one. too. 1'er
imprudence has been. the cause of sev
eral changes in her domain lately. Shi,
has even been coufined ton sol it a ry cell
as a means of discipline. ' "
'"J)oody," another parrot, sings a cu-rimis-
ditty, conspicuous for its want of
rhythm, but. he enjoys it smd' laughs'
heartily over his production f "floody,
lloody, puddin' and pie; when the girls
come oiit to plav, Doody. DoodV runs
aw ay."
The letter "r" in girls liothers his-vo-cal
organs, and while he is trying to
sung it he twirls it out as if it were the
smoke from a cigar, until his falsetto
ton-'S are piped so' high that he lose
L.mself and bursts forth in a peal of
laughter intensely suggestive, and then
gees on wifh" his story. -

which every traveler in the south would
i c-.-ognize as the little fellov that sings
after dark in the rice fields of his native
state but is still as a mouse by day.
"Tippic." one of the merriest and
most active of the paroquets, is con
stantly singing: '"I'm a quiet littleTir.
pit," even though the people about him
declare he is not.
The parrots', of course, claim all atten
tion, because of their ability to express
language, and one of them actually re
cites '"Twinkle, twinkle, Utile stHr," in
very audible tones. The. habits "of the
birds are so much like those of human
beings that it is their delight to sit at
the window- and look out at the passers
by as if they really understood what
they saw, and they are so jealous that
if one is more petted than another theyi
show their displeasure by flapping their
wings against the sid.esof their cages.
In the matter of bathing there is a
great difference wilji birds. Some just
frisk about in their bathtubs; and chirp
and sing with delight,- and others are
too indolent to bathe at all. In the lat
ter case they liave to be bathed like ba
bies every day.
