When asked who told him so, he replied, "A bird.’ GREAT WAVE OF PROGRESS SWEEPS ZOOVILLE, Natural History. The Kangaroo Is the animal whose tale was made famous by Rodger Brothers, "The Tale of a Kangaroo" Is a song, therefore, the Kangaroo Is always happy for It Is always wag ging a song, but, however, It would not sell the wag for a song. The Kangaroo uses this tale for a walking stick, and, If a tale be an untruth, then the Kangaroo Is a very ’good animal, for It stamps down the lie. In- cl den tally the Kangaroo Is the only baby carri age ever seen In Australia. Condensed News, Sergeant Jim Is a good Shepherd, and that no one will deny, especi ally not Joe Car ter. Joe Carter Is 22 years old and the king of Zoo- vine, by right of age, years of cltl- xenshlp and Roy al Lion blood. It Is rumored that Sergeant Jim and King Jos are very close friends, for It Is believed that the Human holds some valuable se crets of the ani mal kingdom, as he and the King are often seen In close conference. Birds to Hava Home. Plans, spaciflca- 11 o ns, materials and all other pre liminary features of a great build ing are now ready and the actual work of building a beautiful home for the Bird fam ily has commenc ed. The contracts 1st to Mr. Human stipulate that the building Is to be complete and In shape to be occu- pled within a moon. The building Is to be somewhat similar to the new Monk home and only s short dls- t a n c e removed from this elegant edifice. In the center will be a large oak tree, through the limbs and leaves o f which the birds can fly and Jump. ’Gator's Building The great wave of progress has also extended to other quarters, the Alligators, to be specific. Near the lake will be built a new home for these ou aquescent friends. The new home will be construct ed entirely of con crete and work will commence within a few sqm sets. The cost of the structure can on, ly be estimated, but from compe tent authority It It understood that It costs the park board much time and worry. Thft ’Gator fam, 11 y consists some twelve Indi vlduals and the family Is worthy of the new pleas uras which will soon be theirs. iy ' M u 11 a Fllrtum (“society woman,” said to be native term) inhabits the earth and Chica go, especially pro lific In Paris, New York and other places where no one cares. Mig rates, but never hibernates; also changes its feath ers spasmodically, sometimes almost e n t Irely leaving them off. The multa fllrtum re sembles, or rath er Imitates, the Kangaroo, which Is embarrassing— to the Kangaroo, the vital differ ence being that th4 Kangaroo Is sometimes seen with Its young. This s pecles of human Is neither guided by seme nor Intuition, but by Fashion, a n omnipotent 1 d o bowed down be fore and worship, ed by all the spe, cles. Mu)ta Fllrtum will be recognlf, ed by the peculiar shading of the hair, dark near the head and yel low further out; It Is untamable, ■wlft, adopts a reddish coloring of the face, eleepe In the daytand keeps others awake at night. It Is never found alone, but usually with some other human's mate. FREAK POLICIES ISSUED BY INSURANCE COMPANIES The amaxlng scope of Insurance grows greater day by day, and now It U astonishing how many of the con tingencies of Ilfs may be provided against In that way. Up to a short time ago In Boston there was an In surance company known as the Birth Insurance Company, which Insured young married couples and paid a cer tain amount on the appearance of youngster In the household. Bo many people took advantage of the benefits of this company that the birth rate of Boston was perceptibly increased and the company recently went Into the hands of a receiver. Great musicians like Kubelik and Paderewski have their hands, Angers and arms Insured for large amounts against any accident which might for ever prevent the further exercise of their wonderful talents, and at the last appearance of Madame Patttl, her manager had her voice Insured so that every performance for which she was scheduled and which she might be un able to appear In, he would be reim bursed for In case he had to hand hack the ofllce receipts to the ticket- holders. In Germany are companies which In sure against loss of sight! Opthmal- mla, which Is more prevalent there than In this country, may be Insured •gainst up to the age of 26 years by an annual payment of sixpence. If the Insured's sight falls end he has to he provided with glasses, he receives treatment free as long as he needs It, In New York, an enterprising opti cian has started an Insurance company which In case a member breake his glasses they are replaced free of Charge, under consideration of the payment of a certain aum every year. He Is said to have Increased hla busi ness 300 per cent by this method. There j* also a recent organisation there known as the rain Insurance com pany, and the payment of a small year-' ly >um entitles the member to a rain cheek, which he can exchange for an umbrella at any one of a large num* her of stations situated all over the city at convenient points, in csss he Is caught out In the wet. Lloyds, of London, the great organ! - aailon originally begun for the pur- fas* of taking only mercantile risks, »pw assumes all sorts of chances on a most any contingency and has agents *1 over the world which bind It to take many peculiar chances. Per forming animals are many times writ, ’* n , py It. a chimpanzee which was highly educated and on exhibition* In this country not long ago, having been written for 150,000. A man whose **ard was his pride and hts livelihood In a dime museum, had It Insured by the same organisation for 25,000 at a premium of 1 per cent. Insurance against water damage by sprinklers In mercantile houses is now a well-de veloped line of Insurance written by many companies. As far ns weather Insurance goes, tradesmen In England hove been known to Insure themselves against loss by a rainy day when great public function was expected to take place, or In the case of private outdoor entertainments a wet day can be guarded against by Insurance so that the expenses of preparation will not be entirely lost If nobody comes. “SECRET" INSURANCE PROTECTSJEMPLDYER New Form 9f Fidelity Policy Reaches the Market This Week. Elegant Silver The excellence and popu larity of Maier & Berkele silver is due largely to the tasteful designs and artistic patterns we carry in stock. If you want any of the hew things, we have them. ” e study the modes in these lines as attentively as smart dressers study the current fashions. Maier & Berkele A new form of fidelity Insurance has .been put upon the market this week by the National Surety Company, of New York, of which Black & Draper are general agents for Georgia, with of fices In the Empire building.

Many employers need protection of thle kind for email amounts, and yet for personal reasons do not want to require certain employees to apply for the regulation bond. "Fidelity Insur ance,” as It has been christened, le In tended by the company to All this want.
