THE TALKATIVE POLLIES. AN ENTHUSIAST PRESENTS MIS VIEWS ON PARROTS. Different kinds and Where They Come From—The Females Can Learn to Talk. Some Practical Hints on Parrot Dietary and Training. "I suppose you know that every ship from the Isthmus lands at least a score of parrots in San Francisco," said an enthusiastic bird tamer to a reporter lately. "What becomes of them?" "I believe most of them die within a month for want of proper care, and very few of the rest learn to talk. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that half the population of San Francisco has tried its hand at parrot keeping; but a good talking bird is as rare as ever, and will always command a high price. Of course all the parrots don't come from the Isthmus or the coast towns where the steamers call; but enough come from these points at a low figure to make it well worth while for a man to undertake the business of training and acclimatizing them. You can get a young parrot at Corento or Acapulco, or at almost any Central American port, for five pence (about $4), that will be worth $20 or $100 when properly taught. It's easy enough when you know the way." "Some varieties are better than others, are they not?" "Yes, but practically any parrot can be trained to talk if you commence when the bird is young. There is a common but foolish notion that it is only the male birds that talk. As a matter of fact, there is no more difference in this respect than in the human species. The hen parrot can do her share of talking." WHAT THEY EAT. "Do the different kinds of parrots require different food?" "Certainly; that is one of the secrets. Let me describe to you here the kinds of parrot commonly met with in this country. Of course, you know they are all imported and acclimatized, the bird being strictly tropical in its natural habitat. The Mexican double yellow head parrots are among the best birds we get; they have better talking power, greater sharpness in picking up words and tricks, and a more pleasing, human like voice than the other varieties. They are also quick to become attached to their owners, and to make strangers feel like strangers, which is one of the chief charms of a parrot for the average man or woman. That's how man nature, isn't it? If a parrot will take to everybody the owner has no use for it. This variety has another good quality—that of fearlessness. A Mexican double yellow head parrot will convince any cat in about two minutes that distance leads both enchantment and safety to the view. As to what these birds can learn, I will only say that..." MISCELLANEOUS TALK IS CHEAP, and the press terms with advertisements of armenipilas, and other liver, blood and lung remedies, but there is no medicine, and only cases for which as a cure for all liniering diseases arising from Topical Law or Biliousness, or from impure blood, may be backed up by a positive guarantee! If it don't do just as represented in every case, the money paid for it is promptly refunded. This peculiar medicine adds beyond all others throughout the civilised world. And why should it not? "Talk is cheap," but when it's backed up by a positive guarantee, by a house of long established reputation, for honesty, integrity and sound financial standing, then words mean business! And that's just what the World's Dispensary Medical Association, of Buffalo, N.Y., means in guaranteeing their Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery checks the frightful intrudes of Scrofaula and if taken in time, arrests the march of Consumption of the Lunga, which is Long-scroffula, purifies and enriches the blood, thereby curing all Skin and Scalp Dissimulation, Uchera, Sorea, Swallings, and blinded aliments. $500 OFFERED for an incurable case of Carruth in the Mind, by the proprietors of Dr. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.

A Mexican double yellow head parrot will convince any cat in about two minutes that distance limits both enchantment and safety to the view. As to what these birds can learn, I will only say that they have been taught to limitate all the animals in the barnyard—the rooster, the dog, the pigs, the pea beans, the turkeys; they can be made to repeat half a dozen letters of the alphabet correctly in succession, spell words, and as to swearing—they will pick up 'cuss' words as quick as any 10-year-old gamlin in Tar Flat. "Are these birds the ones which die off so fast?" "Yes, because they are the most sensitive of all parrots. They require special care the first winter, and should be kept warm and out of the draught. Just here I will give you a pointer. If you put a monkey, an ant enter, a parrot or any tropical animal in a draught of air—as, for instance, by opening the window in a room where a fire is burning—you are going to lose your pet. It will catch cold and die as surely as if you had put it in a refrigerator car." "Then the imported parrots die of cold!" "Not all of them. It is not really cold enough in San Francisco to kill a parrot, even on a cold day, but draughts are fatal, in summer and winter alike. The real trouble people have in raising parrots is because they will not try to believe that the birds get along much better at first without drinking water. If you set a vessel of water near a freshly imported parrot, however healthy, it will drink itself to death; that's what I mean." DRINKING WATER "Then you would give them no water at all!" "Not exactly that. A little water may be given to a young bird every day; any one or two teaspoonfuls. But the proof that water is bad for a green parrot, if you let the bird feed itself, is shown by the fact that a parrot which has been getting along finely for a whole week without water, but with plenty of green food, which contains all the water it requires, will get dysentery or some other trouble directly it is allowed to swill all it wants." "Parrots are reckless fesslers, then!" "In captivity, yes, and that is the cause of most of their ailments. The birds naturally live on seeds and fruit, under conditions which permit them to have fresh food at all times, and plenty of fresh air and sunlight. But a parrot in captivity is kept in a state of chronic irritability by hot and improper food—coffee, meat, stale bread, sour vegetables at the bottom of its cage—is it a wonder that the bird sickens! Why, the life of a parrot is in the sunlight and the fresh fruits on the treest! How many people think of sunning their parrot, a thing which ought to be done every day!" "Do all the varieties require the same care!" "Not as to the temperature of the room, but as to the feeling, yes, certainly. A sick parrot is, in nine cases out of ten, an exposed or overfed parrot. The hardest of all varieties is the African gray, but it should never be fed with soft bread, which agrees well with other parrots. The proper thing for this... "Do all the varieties require the same care!" "Not as to the temperature of the room, but as to the feeling, yes, certainly. A sick parrot is, in nine cases out of ten, an exposed or overfed parrot. The hardest of all varieties is the African gray, but it should never be fed with soft bread, which agrees well with other parrots. The proper thing for this bird is a diet of water crackers, pilot biscuit, hemp, and occasionally a piece of mealy apple or a peanut. The African parrot may also be trusted with drinking water in its cage, which is a dangerous experiment with the green varieties while young. There is no whistler to beat the African gray, and it never screeches. Of course this bird comes high, because it has to come by way of Liverpool and New York, or round the Horn; but it is a fine pet, and, as I have said, a hardly bird. A good African parrot is not dear at $50 or even $100." "What other varieties come here?" "The Cuban parrot. It is a very beautiful bird, a good talker and a fair whistler. This is a delicate variety till thoroughly acclimated, and is subject to all the rules about a limited water diet. There is no better food for this parrot or for parrots generally than plain boiled rice, with the gummy matter washed off by pouring cold water on the boiled masa. No food should ever be left in the cage to sour."—San Francisco Chronicle. Molding Child Character. This matter of molding child character by books is not an opportunity merely. It is a solmn duty.
