There was ft ftfanp when parrots wee?
regarded & India and elsewher* as
sacred, and anybody who dared fco in
jure one of then, was regarded ae guilty
of a dreadful crime. It is trad that
since then tb?j. have fs?ea somewhat
from their ?ga. estate, and thai in this
more degenerate age the comaoa Ama

hers m the eastern parts of Brazil for
the prosaic porpose of making a particu
lar kfed of soap, to which the natives
are partial, while the naturalist waxes
quite eloquent when he sounds the
praises of parakeet pie,
Butin our own country, though we
do not go either to t^e one extreme of
holding them sacred or to the other ex
treme of putting them into pies, parrots
still occupy a place of honor in our
househcids, and a well behaved "pretty

the accomplishments of her kind, is still
tbe source of as great a degree of pleas

Why He Could Not Attend.
An amusing instance of the expedi
ents resorted to by men summoned to
attend as common jurymen in order to
avoid serving in that capacity occurred
recently. One morning a little girl
whose eyes just peered above the desk
timidly exclaimed:
"Please sir, father can't come* he cant
put oc his boots."
The judge asked the nervous little
creature what was the matter with her
parent She hesitated. Evidently she
had not been instructed further than the
statement she had made, and looking
straight into the judge's eves said:
"Well, sir, father dont wear boots;
he's got wooden legs. I wasn't told to
say anything ebe> sIf; that's all.*'?Lon

The Street Band'* Delight.
One of the delicate delights of tbe
street band is Its propensity to scent out
household musicales. In nothing, ap
parently, do these wandering musicians
so much delight as to spring into blat
ant strains before the house from which
issues the-voice of song or the modest
musio of the pianoforte. They carry
the day or rather the night every time:
for while they can play through and
over and above anything, it would take
a self possessed and steady nerved house
hold performer to hold his own or her
own against such rivalry. And then
they ring tbe bell and extend the hatt?

A X.ive Snake In a Woman's Arm.
There lives, or did quite recently, near
Columbia, 8. C, a woman afflicted in a
manner that makes one's tlesh creep to
think of it For more than the third of
A century she has carried a live enake
under the skin of one of her arms. How
the reptile first found lodgment in its
queer situation is as much of a puzzle to
the old lady as it is to the hundreds who
have visited her for the purpose of view
ing the long welt where tbe unwelcome
creature lies encysted.
~ When the lady first noticed the bow
shaped ridge on her arm it was of about
the diameter of a pin, and less than two
inches in length. During^ the many
years that it has safely nestled in her
flesh it has grown from a mere thread to
a snake a foot long and as large as a
lead pencil The eyes of the creature
are plainly visible through the skin, and
the scales can be felt by rubbing the
finger along the welt formed by its body.

PORTRAITS OF COLUMBUS.
The public school pupils, who art
going to bave the lead all over America
in the celebration of the 400th anniver
tary of the discovery of America by
Columbus, are already asking how Co
lumbus looked.
Many leading American publication*
bave recently contained timely article*
an the great discoverer, and tbe variety
of portraits which has accompanied tb ?
articles baa been surprising.
By the highest authorities it is con
ceded that there is no likeness of Ootam
bos whose claim to consideration is in
disputable.
From Oviedo and his own eon Ferdi
nand?two persona who knew him?wt
have descriptions of his appearance,
upon which must be based our judg
ment of the alleged portraits.
From them we learn that his face
was long, neither full nor thin; his
cheek bones rather high; his nose aqni
I Une; his eyes light gray; his complexion
fair and high colored. Up to the aged
thirty his hair of light color, but
became rapidly gray after that ase. It
must he admitted in the face of these
details that not one of tha portraits gives
teryposkfrpe*evidence of presenting the
grea? discoverer as he Hved.
The earttee* claimant for considera
Goo p 6 wood engraving by Paolo
Qiorto, published in 1975, which we
give.
Next in point of antiquity is the cu
graving called the De Bry portrait. It
shows a head covered by a three cor
nered cap, the face being short and
broad and having the characteristics of
' the Dutch in a marked degree. It doe?
not correspond with the best authenti
cated descriptions. De Bry claimed
that the original canvas from which it
was taken was painted from life by
order of Ferdinand, the king.
Jomard published in 1845 a portrait in
support of a Titianesque canvas, which
he had obtained at Vicenza. This pic
ture bore the inscription "Christopherus
Columbus." He claimed that the fea
tures were in accord with the descrip
tion of writers contemporaneous with
Columbus. The pointed beard and Flem
ish ruff he accounted for by assuming
that they were the additions of a later
hand. These and other accessories,
however, prevented tbe acceptance of
Jomard 3 views.
There are many other so called like- i
nessee of Columbus. They are widely c
scattered ta-d it is not easy to link them j
with the three abown above, which profc- 1
ably have the best claims to consider
attoo. But these three have little in \
Common. They would never be taken I
tor portraits of tbe same person.
The meet authoritative descriptions of 1
the stature, complexion and personality 1
of Coiumbus coincide, and yet the most ^
generally accepted portraits are not in
harmony. Many artists disregard the
statement that his nose was aquiline
and make it cf a decidedly retrousse j
type; others portray him as a brunette
with a short, fat and beardless face, f
The next time we see him lie is a blond (
with a long, thin face, well covered with 1
whiskers. We always know him, as the
artist thoughtfully introduces his name;
otherwise a lively guessing match might
result. The style of the lectures would
naturally suggest the celebrities of a
few centuries ago. They might bo taken ?
for Plato, Othello the Moor, Alaric,
Julius Caesar, Richard III and a score
of others whose faces figure in history. (
Even a composite of the many portraits '
could not bl?nd or unite in one the dis
cordant conceptions which we see every
day. We must know Columbus by his
deeds, and not by his pictures.
There are 216,330 school houses in the {
United States and only 8.5 per cent, of t
them are in cities. This is a striking ,

days at a mountain lake nearly sur- '
rounded by deep woods, my attention 8
was attracted each night, ?inst at sun
down, by an osprey that always caux*
from th*3 same direction, dipped into the \
lake as he passed over it for a sip of its ?

tain limit, and returned each night at j
sundown, punctual as a day lal>orer, i 1
to his retreat in t-hn forest. The sip of j
water, too, from the lake he never failed j
to take.

Electricity aiid Explosiven.
No stronger evidence of the safety of
electric lighting installations can be
afforded than the fact that a great many
explosives factories are now being lit by
electricity. It is obvions that in a building
where the preparation of inflammable
or highly explosive substances is carried
on very special care should be taken in
order to avoid' even the smallest risk,
and powder manufacturers now find
that the electric light adds a consider
able percentage over gas to the chances
of saie operation, While electricity in
creases the safety of this branch of in
dustry to one way it lessens it in an
other: There is a great deal of free elec
tricity thrown off in various stages of
manufacture, and the disposition ox this,
eo far as it can be removed out of harm's
way, is a serious question.
The charge of a powder cake press
with ebonite plates may practically be
considered as an electric pile, and a
large amount of friction or electric in
fluence from outside may cause a suffi
cient electric charge to give off sparks.
Several undisputed cases of this kind
have been known. Another source of
danger from friction occurs during the
glazing, founding and sieving of gun
powder. The powder $ subjected to a
constant rabbin* of its particles against
eooh other and during the glazing ee
pedaQy the*e te<dange* of etootriotQr ac
cumulating.
therefore precautions should be taken
in order to convey away any charge that
may accumulate in the glazing barrels.

Tbe Meaning of Blunders.
Examining into the matter of blun
ders, particularly in tracing the course
of the "mistakes, well meant," in our
own lives, when we look back upon
them with the cooler understanding of
later years we are constrained to con
fess that th? "mistake" must have been
intended to be there, as well as the cor
rect action, because the plan of our de
velopment has included both. Continu
ing to study clearly and deeply we must
acknowledge that the mistakes and er
rors?nay, the very sins?when forsaken
and forgiven, have helped the soul tvp
word? that all have worked together to
accomplish the result sought; that they
must have been put there and meant so
to be, and so that our "blunders'1" were
not blunders at all, but although we
sowed and watered often axaiss there
was always jsome increase given which
achieved the good we aimed at, but
failed to reach.
And deepest of all we see that the
divine love, which saw the end from the
beginning, bore with a tender compas
sion to look upon our struggles, our
weeping, our disheartened sighs. Ah,
infinitely greater it is, but like to the
love we bear our own children, which is
so deep and true that we endure to treat
them harshly, and with seeming cruelty
behold their tears, knowing surely that
one day they will comprehend all the
kindness.?Harper's Basar.
