the story of a parrot that was fond of
pickles. and tcet one put his head
Tete a jar in which sweet pickles ware

Occasionally some ono would refer
to the loss of its feathers by saying,.
"So you've had your head in the sweet
pickles, Poll:" One day a bald-headed
old gentleman, on entering the rooni
where hung .Poll's cage, was saluted
by the bird screaming out: "Gnosa
4 you've had your head in the sweet
pickles.
Amusing as is this impudent excite,
million of the parrot, it is paralleled
by the saying of three other parrots,
which the present writer reports and
Tolichos for.
Tho cage of a Massashusotts parrot
hangs in a photographer's reception
eye room. It is not uncommon for a lady,
just as she has finished her' toilet, pre-
paratory to sitting for a picture, to be
startled by the bird's impudent excla-
mation, "Oh my! ain't she a daisy?"
A Rhode Islander.who owns a bright
parrot, keeps a private school for chil-
dren. At recess the children are al-
lowed to play in the yard; but are for-
bidden to go into the street. The lady
is in a wart of the house where she
cannot see the children; but no sooner
has one of them slipped out of the yard
before she is at the door to call the
truant back.
She knows of the disobedience
through the parrot. His cage is hung
by the front window, and as soon as a
child wanders on to the side -walk, the
bird screams:
"Children in the street! Children in
the street!"
Another of these feathered talkers
belongs in the town of r—, in the
same state. His owner, being too fond
of New England rum,sometimes comes
home so intoxicated that not even the
bird fails to notice it At such times
Poll seems to share the family disgrace
for he screams angrily:
"Shut the door! You're drunk! Shut
the door! You're drunk!"--- Youth's
lett ,qs.
Of bulls. in the sense of blunder.
pure and simple, I have heard as good
specimens in England as I have ever
heard in Ireland. "Take, for instance,
the three following:
An English Peer, when speaking
eaking
$oma years ago in the *moo ot Lords
on the necessity of passing sclero Goer
pion hip for Iceland, and repereetdring
the gov rnroc*t of that day Igor their
delaying to do so, obsbrvod that "this
f delay might be very convenient for the
Ministers, but that it was not quite so
convenient for these Irish landlords
who were meanwhile being frequently
murdered."•
An English clergyman, pleading
earnestly with his parishioners for the
construction of a cemetery for their
parish, asked them le consider "the
deplorable condition of 30,0041 Christian
Englishmen living without Christian
burial."
Another English clergyman, waxing
sarcastic to the pulpit over the enor-
ities of the age, exclaimed; "And these
things. miy brethren, are done in the
'lie=called nineteenth century."

Apropos of speeulatiou, I asked a
telegraph operator on 'Ghaltge the
other day; "Is the popular imppress-
ion that telegrams from opeculative
markets aro full of 'points' a correct
one?"
"No, it is not," he replied. "Tele-
grams containing smatter that is capable
of influencing the markets art written

of the difficulty. ler declaration was
that Mrs. Wrider was desperately in
love with a man with side -whiskers.
Musson's cheeks aro as baro as a
pumpkin, so he borrowed a side-
whisk-ered mask and a shot -gun, and skulked
down by the widow's house ono Sunday
evening recently. Ho listened outside
the door, and when he heard Mrs.
Wrider tell her children to go to bed,
he smashed in three windows and then
broke open the door. Then he fired a
charge of buck -shot through the ceil-
ing and departed, leaving his mask be-
hind him. His intention was to per-
sonate
ersonate the supposed side -whiskered
object of the widow's affections in or-
der to disgust her with her hypothetic-
ally hairy -faced lover. He was arrested
and tried before Justice Austin, at
Haywards, and on his trial he swore
that Mrs. Wrider had given him a
powder in his tea some time before he
adopted his novel means of cutting out
his hated rival. He was sent to the
county jail for six months. Mrs.Wrider
denies that she ever gave him any
powder. --San Francisco Call.

Meissonter's Waggish dardener.
i
Companion. Ale ssonier had a gardener who was a
good botanist and a great wag. He
knew the seeds of all sorts of plants,
and Meissonier was always trying and
always failing to puzzle him.
"I have got him now," said Meis-
sonier to some friends at a dinner
party, and he showed. them a package
of the roe of dried herrings. Then he
sent for the gardener. Ail the guests
smiled. The gardener arrived.
"Do you know the seeds?"' Meis-
Bonier asked. °
The gardener examined them with
great attention. ,
"O yes,." said he at last, "that is the
seed of the polus fluximas a very rare
tropical plant.
"How long will it take the seed til
/come up?" he asked. -
I. "Fifteen days," said the gardener,
At the end of the fifteen days the
guests were once more at table. After.
dinner the gardener was announced.
"M. Meissonier," ho said, • "the
plants are above the ground."
"Oh, this is a little .too much, said
the great painter, and all went'out into
the garden ' to; behold the botanical
wonder.
The gardener lifted up a glass bell,
under which was a little bed carefully .
made; and in which three rows ,of red
herrings were sticking up their heads.
The, laugh was against Meissonier. Ile
discharged the gardener, batt took -him
back next day.

In his life and ending Ralston was
perhaps the typical Californian of the
early time. In 1847 he began life as
second clerk on the steamboat Convoy
(of which C. K. Garrison was captain
and main ow..ier), running from St.
Louis to New 'Orleans. After varied
fortunes, in 1849 Commodore Garrison
killed a well known Mississippian in a,
light, shooting him in the head just in
time to save his own life. The family
of the man he killed was a very rich
and powerful one at that time, and
while Garrison did what he did clearly
in self defence, yet he certainly would
have been killed by some' of the dead
man's brothers had he continued to run
on the river. He .therefore concluded
to leave the South, and the', California
gold excitement breaking out at that
time, he went out' there, his „clerk, , Ral-
ston following him. As might'. be ex-
pected, Garrison soon became very
rich, and established the firm of Garri-
son, Fretz &` Ralston. After making',
an immense fortune, he came 'east to'.
New York,: leaving Ralston one of slid,
leading financiers of that section. His
life, adventures, and. sad death are tOo
well remembered to need further me a-
tion.—San Francisco Post. J
