The very oldest parrot story on rec ord comes down from Queen Elizabeth's day. She owned a fine talking bh-d, gifted with so much wit and good sense, her majesty was far fonder of him than her hawks and greyhounds. He wore a ruff of bright ribbons about his neck, little gold bells on his feet, was an astonishing acrobat, and sitting on his royal mistress' shoulders would give saucy answers to the noble ladies and gentlemen to whom her majesty gave audience. One day when the queen went on a water party in the royal barge, whether in f right or frolic, Polly, who had been prowling about the boat, fell at last plump into the river. A ferryman, seeing the mishap, bold ly jumped in and rescued the fright ened bird. Then a dispute arose as to how much the man should be paid. Let us leave it to the parrot," said the queen, whereat Polly, who had sat silently preening his bedraggled feath ers, looked up, winked his round, red eyes and said in a gruff voice: "O, give the knave a groat," and that put an end to the discussion. The cleverest parrot ever known was the property of a poor actor named O'Keefe. The bird not only talked clev erly but sang sweetly, in a tenor voice. His favorite song was "Lord save the king," but not a sound would the par rot make on Sunday. He enjoyed church going and sat sol emnly, on the back of a pew, paying the most respectful attention to all that was said. One day, when the sermon proved very long and tiresome, the good cler gyman arrived at an impressive pause just to give weight to his words, and the sober sided parrot s.Toamed out Amen! amen! now let u.-i 1m off," and scuttled out the door, mvir winch his master sat, leaving the weary congre gation, and, after a bit, the good-natured clergyman, too, laughing heartily The fame of this parrot s achieve ments reached the royal palace, where upon King George commanded him to sing before the court. When Polly entered the royal pres ence and was ordered to sing "God Save the King," not a sound would the bird make. Then'his majesty, put in quite a rage by this obstinate discourtesy, stalked out of the room. Ilardly h-id the door rinsed, however, when t!io parrot broke gavly into the national ant hmh in a voice so fine that the king il-Tightedly reentered the room an I o.'ferud O'Keefe a princely sum for so gifted a bird. O'Keefe loved his feathered friend too dearly to part with him, and tucking Polly close to his breast, under his ECZEMA From early child hood until I was ' grown my family I spent a fortune trying to cure me I 1 of this disease, I visited Hot Springs i and was treated tv tne Dest medical men, but was not benefited. 116 all things bad rnnil tailed I de- J termined to Is K 1 1 1.1 try S.S.S. and in four II U III months was! entirely cured.

FOR AN UNSPOKEN SPEECH, Th Irish Patriot Jailed for Words Ha Didn't Kay. A member of the Land league was sent from Dublin to a certain district to get up a meeting and make a speech, says a foreign exchange. On reaching the town where the meeting was to be held, the speech maker met a friend, and, both being genial fellows, they retired to a public house and had something. Then they began talking over old-time rem iniscences, and the first thing the land leaguer knew was that the attendant had come in to light the lamp. "Great troodness!" he said, "I was sent down from Dublin to get up a meeting here, and now it is too late." "Oh, well, it doesn't matter," said the other. "Yes, but it does matter," said the organizer, "I have to report to my su perior that the meeting was held." "Oh, that's all right," said his friend. "LTere, you write out a speech and I will send it to the local papers, who will print it just as if the meeting was held, then the folks in Dublin won't know the difference." This was quickly done, and the speech that was never delivered ap peared the next day m the papers. The fun of the thing comes in over the fact that the leaguer was arrested and was sentenced to four months m jail for a speech that he never delivered, at a meeting that was never held.

A curious story comes from Vienna. ' A young man, the representative of a famous firm, who carried a large sum of money with him, spent the night at a hotel at Presburg. According to his usual custom, ho remained some time smoking in bed. Suddenly the burn ing cigar fell to the floor. lie bent over to extinguish it, when he saw a hand project from under the bed and put out the fire. It made him very un comfortable, and he lay for fifteen min utes thinking. Then he said, aloud: "How very cold it is! I must get my fur coat. Jumping out of bed, he ran to the door, opened it and screamed for help, and the robber was caught. He confessed his crime, and then added that he had been a fireman formerly, and could not resist the impulse to ex tinguish the burning cigar. According to Ur. tieorge Russell, of Hartford, Conn., the largest chestnut tree now growing tin American soil is one standing in the town of Manslleld, in the above named state, on the land of a Mr. Whipple (Ireen. It is In an open pasture, about three-quarters of a mile east of Munshcld station. The circumference of the tree at the height of 4 feet from the ground (which is sulliclently high to 1h( clear of the gnarled roots at the buttressed base) Im .:i feet R inches. It is heavily but tressed with exposed roots of enor niotis size, which would make the actual circumference at the basis not less than 5 feet. tXXSf That,16 RAMBLER Is one of the very best wheels ever made Is an Indisputable fact.
