Tho Parrot Scolded. If parrots seem ill nntured it is not always their fault They say ill natural things, but they say nothing that has not been taught to them. So Mrs. Watkins’ parrot must not be blamed for speaking ill naturedly to the burglar. The burglar got in Mrs. Watkins’ house one night and was trying to steal something or other that Mrs. Watkins would have preferred to keep, and in looking around the boose he woke up the parrot You know bow grumpy you feel if you are awakened before yon have had enough sleep. It was just the same way with the parrot, and she scolded the burglar. She told him that he was a bad man and that he must get out. and the burglar, who did not know that it was a bird that was talking to him. got out as quickly as he could. He probably thought that he had been visiting a ghost

A Doughnut Twice Cooked. They had a fire in the window of a bakery in Boston. It started in an overheated doughnut—in the rim probably and not In the hole The doughnut was a large affair, as much as a hungry small boy could eat in two seconds, and over it was a large mag nifylng glass, so that the small boy, if he should come along, would not bite off more than he could chew. He did not have a chance to try, because the sun got around to the window and shone through the magnifying glass on the doughnut, and pretty soon the doughnut got so hot that It burned. You know how such things happen, because you have probably burned yonr hands with magnifying glasses, but you did not have to have the fire department come to pat oat the blaze.

Some Odd Names. Vereshchagin, painter of the celebrated picture “The Russian Feast.** had a puzzling cognomen. His own pronunciation of his name is Vert-shah-gin, second syllable accented. Munkacsy. the Hungarian painter of the well known picture “Christ Before Pilate," pronounces his name Moon-kotch-e. second syllable accented. Mr. Gladstone, who was prime minister of England, pronounced his name Glad-stnn, first syllable accented. Mr. Carnegie pronounces his name Car-na-gy, second syllable accented. A Queer Little Animal. In Chile there lives underground like the mole a queer little animal with a long name, chlamyphorus, which really means armor bearing. Its fore feet are adapted for digging. The whole upper and hinder parts of the body are covered with a coat of mail made up of a series of square plates. The peculiar tail is protected by small scales, but the under parts of the body and legs are covered with soft hair.

Origin of an Old Rhyme. “Humpty Dumpty” was a bold, bad baron wbo lived in the days of King John, committing many cruel deeds in his strong stone castle, bnt at last was tumbled from power. His history was pnt into a riddle the meaning of which w.is an egg. The rhyme is more than 400 years old. The Gift. Fate save a chit 1 these letters four With which his lot to spell: O-H-E-R, no less, no more. The mystic letters felL -) The boy received them with a frown. a "Give me that hoe,” he said. “Fate dooms me for a drudging clown I’* For H-O-E-R he read. “Fate’s fault!” they cried. Fate smiled serene. "Why blame me for his hoe? With wiser eyes he might have seen And spelled H-E-R-O!^’ * —Youth's Companion-

Cookery points

Chicken Liver Roll*. Wash and drain some chicken livers, then roll them in floor seasoned with salt and black pepper and cook them gently in warm batter for about six minutes. Cut as many thin stxip6 of bacon as there are livers and roll each of the latter in a piece of bacon. Dust the rolls lightly with floor, then dip them into beaten egg and cover them thickly with fine breadcrumbs and fry in deep, boiling fat Serve the little rolls on small cakes of fried potato. The rolls can be prepared the previous day and left ready to be fried. Mixed Fruit Bslad. Slice four bananas, four oranges and one pineapple. Pot oh lettuce leaves and poor over a French dressing. For those who do not care for the French dressing make a sirup of one and onehalf cupfuls of sugar and one cupful of water and boil until thick. Add the strained juice of one lemon, let cool and then pour over the fruit. Let stand on ice for two and a half hours. Another good dressing is one cupful of good claret, half a cupful of sugar and a slice of lemon. All fruits that go well together may be mixed. A Blackberry Pie. Blackberry cobbler is a southern dish, sometimes called “family pie." Line a pudding dish with pastry and fill it with ripe luscious blackberries. Sprinkle liberally with sugar and cover with a top crust which has been rolled thin, doubled together and gashed with a knife.

Use canned berries when fresh ones are unobtainable.

Currant Jelly. Wash the currants, put them, still wet, into the preserving kettle and set where the fruit will heat very slowly. When it is hot and broken squeeze it through a jelly bag. Measure a pound of sugar. Pot the sugar in shallow pans in the open oven to beat, stirring it often, that it may not burn. Return the juice to the fire and boll steadily for twenty minutes, then add gradually the heated sugar, bring to the boiling point, take from the fire and pour into glasses.

Apple Salad. Apple salad is made as follows: Core and pare six large apples and cut into small pieces, chop three heads of celery rather fine and mix with apples, then add half a pint of walnuts broken into pieces. Mix all together with thick mayonnaise sauce and serve on lettuce leaves. If the apples are somewhat tasteless add the strained juice of one lemon. Prepare just before it Is required, as the apples will darken if allowed to stand.

Preserved Peaches. Peel some peaches and after removing the pits weigh the fruit To each pound of this allow a pound of sugar. Pot the fruit into the kettle in layers, covering each layer with sugar. Simmer gently for a half hour after the boil begins, then remove the peaches and spread them on a platter. Boil the sirup until thick, skimming often. Pack the peaches into Jars, fill these to overflowing with the boiling sirup and seaL Salmon Salad. To make salmon salad take one pound of salmon, twelve sweet chopped gherkins, six chopped olives, half of a chopped onion and half a breakfastcupful of mayonnaise sauce. Remove all skin and bone from the salmon. Chop up fine and mix with it the chopped gherkins, olives and onion. Add just a pinch of salt Stir the mayonnaise sauce into it and serve cold on crisp lettuce leaves. Peach Potpie. To make a delicious peach potpie fill a bowl or basin or padding mold one-third full of peaches, pared and ■toned and quartered. Pour a cupful of boiling water over them and set upon the stove to cook. When they begin to boil lay over them a crust made as for biscuit Cover closely and bake twenty minutes. Serve with sugar and cream or with bard sauce. Pineapple Dish. Cut off the top of a pineapple and pare away the bottom so that it will stand Upright and firm on the tray; scoop but the pulp, discarding the core; mix the pulp with one cupful of sliced raspberries, the strained juice of two oranges, two sliced bananas and sugar to taste. Return the mixture to the shell and chill thoroughly. Cucumber Bauee. Pare two cucumbers, cut lengthwise in quarters and cut off the edge containing the seeds. If they- are large, then chop fine and squeeze through cheesecloth quite dry. Season with salt, paprika and vinegar and stir in one-half cup thick cream, whipped stiff. Quince Honey.
