TE XAN.LNfG TIMES. The Parret Pressed the Balton. A gentleman who has recently re turned from Mexico, and who brought with him a parrot which he purchased in Veras Cruz, has been very much astonished at some tricks which that bird has learned during the few days be has been in the house. The bird's owner, Col. Howard Johnson, occu pies a beautiful residence, in the su burbs, and Jacko has from the first shown the liveliest interest in all his - surroundings. It was very soon found that he could not be allowed his lib eriy in Xrs. Johnson's room, as he at once formed a terrible antipathy to a beautiful 1panther-skin rug, in which the head is remarkably life-like, and the moment he was released he would make for the rug and begin biting savagely at its eyes and nose. He escaped from his cage one (-- a demolished the nose of the rug, and after that he was chained t. his perch. It happened that for several days in succession the perch stoxd by the wa, close beside the electric bell. --When Mrs. Johnson touched the but 'tontTOeio took notes, with his head on one side and a most inquig air, and when the servant appeared im mediately afterward Jocko gave a faint croak of astonishment. After witneing this performance several times it waa evident that Jocko began to anzrae ,cannection between the button and the servant. He spent a geat deal of time studying the but =n running his beak softly around it an'd apparently communing with him ,eefhis mistress watching him mean risle, highly amused at his clever mess At last, whether accidentally ir otherwise, Jocko discovered the n mneciion and pressed the button. - The-ext moment a servant appeared and the little schemer straightened . tip and said with great gravity: 1O6 hungry." His mistress's i aof laughter and the servant's ent did not in the least dis himn. He had rung for what wanted and he insisted on having The scheme worked well, to - ek's - manifest delight. He rang -ell again before half an hour zmarked to the servant who 'the call: :Well, you are a deisyI Jocko wants water!" Johnson is so delighted with - bird's accomplishment that he i d some friends in to witness it nght. Jocko was inclined,. to afirst, but finally brightened up 'was soon working at the but - When the servant entered Jocko himself on one foot, swung body to and fro in a most effected May74&d exclaimed: "Hello, Tom, is you? Bring in another bottle of wll'you?" Col. Johnson, be it stood, is a church member, and .hinnister ,was present, and the U~l~hkl insists that Jocko caught his ~tikbefore he came into his hands.

A 1,int for the Christmas giver to remmber i's that a present is much more attractive to the recipient when daintily wrapped. White tissue pa per is ui*nt costly, but it gives a parcel the true holiday appearance, and this will be.g'reatly e1h-,Wfeed by tying the package with narrow white ribbon, the variety having a little cotton in its weave being quite good enough for the purpose. NrEDE-CAsE.-AlmOst anybody can make a dainty needle-case, and atvery trifling cost. Heart-shaped cases are popular and are fashionable just now for a variety of fancy articles and fur nishing. To make such a needle-case cut four pieces of pasteboard of the shape and size desired, and cover them with silk, basting it on. Place two of the covered pieces together, with the wrong sides inward, and sew them over and over; then prepare the other L.wo in the same way. Cut three or four leaves of white flannel the shape of the outside, but a little smaller; button-hole them all round with white silk, and fasten them to one of the covers. Sew a-quarter of a yard of half-inch ribbon to the inside of the top of each cover, aud tie the ribbons in a bow, securing the covers firmly together. Anotber case, that will be a dainty ornament for a guest chamber, may be made as follows: Procure half a yard of ribbon three inches wide. Cut two circles of pasteboard each an inch in diameter, and cover them on both sides with part of the ribbon. Hem the ribbon at the end, and sew it to the two circles, placing one at each edge'of the ribbon and. sewing but half-way round each circle so as to form a pocket at the end of the ribbon. Fringe the other end, fold it over on the right side for three inches, and catch it with a fine needle across the top, -thus forming a sheath through which to pass a ribbon for suspending the case. Button-hole with white silk a piece of white flannel five and a-half inches long and not quite the width of the ribbon. Place this flannel slip midway between the spool-pocket and the fringe, fastening it to the ribbon at its four corners, and covering the fastenings with tiny bows of white ribbon. Place in the pocket a spool of white and a spool of black thread, and thrust into the flannel several needles of various sizes. HA-xDr-BAG.-This ingeneous arti cles, which is to be hung on the closet door, will be appreciated by a friend whose room is of limited size. It looks best when made of striped canvas like that used for awning, but gray linen or bed ticking is equally strong. In making a bag of this kind the writer allowed a piece of material fifty inches long and twenty-four wide, but these measurements may have to be altered to suit the width of the door. Cut the top of the linen in five points. Cut six strips of the oods for pockets, making them seven inches deep and twenty-eight inches long. Bind the tops of these strips with braid, write with a lead-peneil the words that will indicate what each pocket is to contain, and outline the writing with heavy etching cotton. should be marked as follows: "Linen," "Cotton," "Shoes," "Shoes," "Rub bers," "Slippers," and "String," "Pa per." The two remaining strips will be arranged to form one pocket each and will bear the words "Sundries" and "Patterns." Sew the~first strip to the foundation, placing its top three inches from the points, basting side to side, fulling on the bottom of the pocket, and sewing the middle of the pocket to the middle of the founda tion. Arrange all ofthe pockets in the same way, placing them an inch apart. When all are on bind the en tire bag with braid, not forgetting the points. Sew to each point a strong brass ring, by which to suspend tbe bags. This will provide an abiding place for those miscellaneous belong ings which have such an aggravating faulty for getting misplaced unless there is some definite receptacle to which they may always be consigned. TniE CARD CA~SE.-For those who trav el much by rail or boat, and who can never find a time-table when wanted, this case will make a desirable present. It is wise to procure such a time-card as the recipient is most likely to use, .s there will be no mistake in meas urement. The case will usually be made of the gray linen so long in use for shoe and traveling bags. Cut two sections of strong pasteboard, each two inches and a-half larger all round than the time-card; cover one of these sections with plain linen, pulling the edges of the latter well over those of the pasteboard, and fastening them with long stitches from side to side. From the center of the cther section of pasteboard cut a piece three-eighths of an inch smaller all round than the timecard; lay the section on the piece of linen that is to cover it and with a lead-pencil lightly outline the opening upon the linen. Follow this outline openng with a basting thread, stretch the linen on a fiat, smooth board or table, pin it in place, and with a soft pencil write on the linen the word "Schedule," "Time-Table" or any other tat will suggest the use for which the case is intended, being careful not to enroach upon the space outlined by the thread. If the worker possess some skill with her pencil, she may draw upon the linen a number of bells strung on a ribbon, the bells being depicted as galy ringing. WVork the lettering or design with brown etching silk, cover the pasteboard with linen, ut out the center, and turn the linen back so there will be no rough edges. Now hold the two pieces of covered pasteboard together, and sew them neatly with over-and-over stitches, leaving the lower edge open so the time-card may be slipped in and out. Sew one end of a piece of brown rib bon to each upper corner for suspend ing the case. Women who understand decorat ive painting can make an endless va riety of dainty articles, and those who do not will at least be able to atpply gold paint. An envelope of gold powder cost but a trifle, and a bottle of "medium," ready for use, is even less expensive. It is advisable, how ever, if much work of this kind is to be done, to make the "medium" for one's-self. Procure at a paint shop a snall quantity of varnish and turpen tine, and mix them together in the two-thirds turpentine, ming just enough for present nsa, and keeping the turpentine always well corked Brushes N,,s. 4 and 10 are advised for gilding, the former for fine lines and the lattr for heavier work. Much can be done in a decorative way by a tasteful use of gold powder. BUCKLEN'S AlNICA 1.VE.
