On five different occasions has this intelligent bird saved the house Prow baring robbed by burg- lars. The last time was on a • re- cent id Ili, The burglar got the door unfai tend, but when he opened it the parrot .asked, in a:harsh stern voice, "Hello there! What's the - matter?" The burglar didn't answer but fell over himself in his desperate hurry ts get away from there. A Hairy Hen..—A Southern pa- per says that a lady at Indian Spring., Florida, has a hen that is quite a cul iosity. It has a coat of hair instead of feathers, and is a wonderful freak of nature. It carne from a flock of ordinary chickens, and the cause of its singular coat is mystery. The freak lays, sets, and batches like the common chickens, and soma of its offspring are like the parent, but she has not succeed- ed, as yet, in bringing them to ma- turity. A Tennessee Bird.—The interest taken in the little menagerie attach- ed to the, Nationac Museum increas- es every day, and even President Cleaveland has cast a kindly eye on it. One of the President's Christ mas presents was an immense "gold- en eagle." It was sent to him by Thomas Tomlinson, proprietor of Wate Spring, Granger county, East Tennessee, and was received at the White House in a handsome wooden cage, which was much admired. Once Was Enough.—When a boy we remember to have seen a lot of hogs 'bilnd drunk' on some damag- ed brandy. peaches. In this they were like men. The next day they 'sobered up,' and not one of them could be tempted to eat a brandy peach. One scent was enough. In this they were unlike'm en—Talladega Mountain Home. An Old Squirrel.—Mr Dave Ma- thews brought to our office the ether day a fors-quirrel which he says was not less than twenty-five years old at the time' it was ,killed. The squirrel's hide will be tanned bythe foreman ofouroffice.—Hawk- inaville (Ge.) News. Ladies Only. • - "'rhe complexion is often rendered un- sightly by Pimples, Liver Spots and Yel- owness. These it is well known are caused from an inactive Liver and bad blood. Dr Chase's Liver Cure purifies the blood and whole system.

By all druggists .HE KNEW, �1 literal truth may be a virtual Ho, and though there exists great cleverness in the telling, it is of that sort of speech which we would :scarcelyfcare to imitate, although we garey,smile at it, A party of boys were snow -balling one day in front of the old academy just as the professor was approach- ing its door, Whizz! and one icy ball striking his shiney beaver car. ried it neatly away from his head. It was an accident, but the pro- fesses• was not one to make allowan- ces, and as he turned and glared at them, the boys trembled. One of them, however, had the self posses- sion to pick up and 'straighten the ill-used 'tile,' and the owner with- out a word; marched in -doors and rang the bell. The boys went in like mice.When they were seated, 'Young gentle-' men,' said the professor, 'who threw that ball?' No one stirred and not a glance was exchanged. The question was repeated and the room was silent. 'I will put one more question,' said the professor severely. 'Does any one know who threw it?' The guilty boy raised his hand, but as -'be was the model of excel- lence, it did not occur to the teacher that he could be the offender. 'You raise your hand, Reade,' he said, 'then you know who did it?' Yes, sir.' 'I should not under any ordinary "citcumstances , ask one boy to tell the misdemeanor of another, but it -i evident a coward is present and needs exposure. Reade, who threw that ball?' • 'I would rather not tell, sir,' said Reade . with a mischievous twinkle in his eyes. 'Noble boy I honor you!' said his teacher with enthusiasm. 'If these is present one boy too cowardly to confess, it is evident that there is another who is too ]honorable to be- tray a schoolmate. For Repde's sake the culprit is forgiven. Young } gentlemen, proceed with your work. ' Ibis only fair to add that lleade's conscience afterwards pricked him, in view of such undeserved praise and that he did manfully confess.

POULTRY, NOTES. Eons—flow INaxllstiED.--If an in- crease of eggs be desired in the poul- try yard, before large sumo are ex- pended in the,purehase of everlasting layers, we would recommend the sys- tem of keeping no hens after the first, or at moat, after the second year. Early pullets give the increase, and the only wonder is that people per- sist, as they do, in keeping up a stock of old hen, which lay one day and stop the{next. In some part of Eur- ope it is the invariable rule to keep the pullets only one year at most Feeding will do a great deal --a sur- prising work indeed --in the produc- tion of eggs, but not when old hens are concerned •; they may put on fat, but they cannot puown eggs. Their tale is told, their ork'is done ; no- thing remains to be done with them but to give) them a smell of kitchen file, and the sooner they get that the better. PLYMOUTH Rocas— Unquestion- ably the most popular fowl with the American farmer is the Plymouth Rock. They have been tested for the past fifteen years with all the leading varieties, and have been found to be the best all purpose fowl. At eight weeks old they make a plump two pound broiler, having yellow legs and skin. The pulldts commence laying at five and a half months old, and are very prolific layers in'thewinter.
