It was an unwritten law he should never return home without an addition to Jane's aviary. She was an expert in the business 'of breeding foreign • finches and, though now no more than 20, had al- age'bready won a name of respect in cage- 'bird ird circles and taken many prizes at ,representative exhibitions. Jane Brad - shames collection was famous, and Tom, who lived not far distant from a paradise of birds, had; brought home little creatures of beauty and interest from time to time to enrich her store, Now, however, he had Left no leis- ure to pick and choose, but visit a dealer's menagerie, known to hint in a back street in Lima, and bought the' first oddity that his eye fell up- on. It was a' parrot much unlike any other parrot in his experience, and he guesaed that Jane, who loved oddities might well welcome it. The present owner had long been well-known to his customer, and he applauded Tout's choice. After young Aylmer learned the parrot was going to cost him five pounds sterling, he protested. The vendor,' however, possessed his own technique in these cases. He did not argue, and was seldom prepared to reduce his price, but he dwelt.am the special qualities of the bird, or beast in the balance. "This parrot is among the rarest of ell parrots," said Manner Moreno, "and I am glad that an Englishman is going to buy him. There will be no other parrot like hien in your coun- try, and your Miss will have a unique bird. I only know two others. They are in the collection of Jacob Fern- andez, and he is very proud ofthem as well he may be. This parrot conies from Lake Titiaea, and is rare even there." Alymer eyed the bird, but had al- ready made up his mind, for Manual was a truthful man. The parrot look- ed smaller than an ordinary Brazilian, but it possessed a certain beauty that familiar bird is apt to lack. Its plum- age -was the colour of a somewhat un- familiar gem, the zircon; a lustrous and very brilliant metallic blue. It is paler than the sapphire, yet often exudes more light and fire, Hut the parrot was not wholly blue, It reveal- ed a bright orange tail banded with white; his head was black. The 'bird looked at Tomand seemed to wink his 'purple eyelids. It suggested con- siderable age and ,wide experience Something akin to thought .appeared to animate its topaz coloured eyes, Then it turned: its head sideways and regarded the possible purchaser' with one eye alone. "He looks devilish old," said Tom; but Moreno Modified this opinion, "Probably seventy or thereabouts but that is not old in the parrot world. It is possible to tell their full span of life, but I have had them tlu'oegh my hands when it could be preyed that they hadlived through three' generations of mankind and were over a hundred and 'still Hearty and healthy and very good compan- ions.. This bird is strong and well. Not a weals spot. I have had him for three years and never known lam to ail. But he must be kept warm and led on the right things. "You can trust my lady far that", answered Tam. "Does it talk?".. "Have no fear of its language," replied the seller. "At seventy or so this bird is still a learner and if it gives you pleasure to teach a parrot your tongue, no doubt it will oblige you and learn.' It does talk, but its speech need not make you fear for Your Miss, because nobody can tran- slate the language. Tom bought the bird and its cage, ascertained its requirements on the voyage' and went his Way. On board ship it is the butcher who generally takes charge of birds, beasts and reptiles bound for a new home, and Tom handed his parrot Lo a very capable curator, who innew much mare about birds than he did. The man was interested and even be- came enthusiastic, for he had never seen such a parrot before in a long experience. People aboard amused themselves by visiting the butcher's menagerie, for many creatures travelled under his charge. Some animals 'like the sea air; others are .not such good sailors; but Aylmer's parrot apprec- iated' its, change of circumstance, and became genial, "friendly, and happy. Its plumage acquired. a new lustre; it appeared to grow younger, and meal' enjoyed any attention or worct of praise. - • Coming to the cafe one forenoon the friends, discovered a man sitting beside .it and watching the bird's movements. Toni. and Angus knew the voyager well enough, for he hap- pened to be a familiar figure in Lima; but he did not know them. He was the merchant and bird -fancier, Jacob Fernandez ae brown, bald Peruvian and obviously very. old -- but his eyes were as bright as black diantends behind his blue glasses, his movements energetic, his voice still strong and masculine. -Jacob's wealth was rumoured to be prodigious, and business men declared that he had a finger in every prosperous pie; but none really knew much about him save that he was a childless widow- er, lived a few miles from his offices and for more than half a century had devoted to collecting birds. Ornithologists came from every quarter of the globe to see them, and Signor Fernandez was engaged in. the preparation of a sumptuous bird -book, illustrated in colour, which had already cost him. a good many thousands potmds anti had as yet only reached the seventh volume, out of ten that he designed. "If your parrot interests: old Peres andez, it must have points, Tom!" said Angus. They approached and the little mail accosted them. . "Your bird, gentisinen?" he asked. "Mine, sir," answered Aylmer. "And my friend has just, said that if you could look twice .at him, he must be a bit out of the 'common;" "Your bird is out Of the 'common —a very rare parrot indeed." "I'll bet you've got another, Sir?" "Yes, I have had two for 'mama years. They have seen me` change from youth to age, but I cannot say that I have marked any ehanges in them as yet. They are still -in their prime." "Might I ask if my bird is all right Sir? ' I got bins from iV,toreno, at Lima ,and he judged his to he -about seventy." "Manuel Moreno is a good man, and honest, and knows quite a lot about birds. Your parrot is seventy, or older; but he is very welt pre - 'served gild in good plumage. His eyes ere bright ,and -he is Imppy and enjoying life. Where do you take hint?" "To England, Sir," "Then be est careful. He comes from a mighty` ni hot place, Lake Titicaca. Keep hien at the best tem- perature to be 'found in England •- if indeed you can talk of tempera- tures in •that island." Suddenly the parrot intervened, He had not .as yet spoken in his new owner's hearing, nor did he say much now; but he spoke a name, and to their . surprise Jacob' Fernandez re- cognized it. THE BIRD SPEAKS "Benny Boss! Benny Bossu Benny Boss!" cried the bird Ioudly, and rattled off a rigmarole of noised which Toni assumed to be his own language. Then it cocked its head on one side, looked at them anti seem- ed to expect a reply, But old Jacob was' astounded. "Now that," he said, "is a most remarkable thing — a quite ex,tra- ordinery happening! This bird, my young friends, has just epakena name. that was already familiar to nue more than„ half a century agar" "Is there such a person as. Benny Bass, st ?" asked Maine. "No," answered the other. - "One may safely declare that this parrot's `Benny Boss' has long joined the majority. But he was a very singular person — in his prime when I was young -and of such individuality and enterprise that I have never forgot- ten hien and never; shall. Na man could tell you the true story- of Benny Boss. He was sueh is liar that the truth about him is little ever to be known; but I had a good deal to do with him long ago, and he gave up his attempts to cheat me after he found that I knew far more about the matter than he did," The speaker broke off. "There can be little doubt -iii nay opinion that this was once his bird, It comes from his old'hame'at Puna in the region of Titicaca, the great- est ' and grandest of our lakes.

A CAMEO OF CANADIAN HISTORY This month Wiarton, Ontario, cele- brates the seventieth anniversary of a business which illustrates at once the growth of a great profession and the tradition of Canadian l3ioneers, The story goes back for four genera- tions to James Paterson who was born in 1819 and in eary manhood attended the Apothecaries Hall in Glasgow. After the Crimean war depression in the old country prompted emigra- tion to the new. He arrived, in Tor- onto in 1357 and was employed by Lyman, Elliott and Campany until 1861 when he pushed on to the Bruce Peninsula where Indian lands were being sold. The farm he bought then was located on what is now the bord- er of the town of Wiarton. Constantly called upon to minister to the sick, in which he was assisted by his wife who had taken a course in obstetrics at the Toronto School of Medicine, Mr, Paterson was com- pelled to open -a pharmacy, The first establishment of its kind in town, it has been operated by the same family since 1869. The son of this pioneer pharmacist, also named James Paterson, attended the Ontario School of Chemistry and Pharmacy in Toronto and in 1382 suc- ceeded ueceeded his father ie. the business. , ww w«w-r„«»« . .n +4 a Third generation in this family of uated from the Ontario College of " " " " "' " " "a. pharmacists, James P.
