THE “BONE AGE" IN KANSAS,
In Early Days the Plain Was Strewn
With Buffalo Skeletons,
The ploneers of Kansas wiil never
forget the “buffalo bone age’ When
central and southwestern Kansas were
settled the prairies were strewn with
buffalo bones, Those were hard times
in Kansas, and the gathering of these
boues enabled the early settlers to live
while they were getting thelr clalms
“broken out” for the producing of
crops. Nine-tenths of the ploneers of
that section of Kansas — and there
weren't many at that—had literally
pothiug but a team and a few house-
hold goods that they had hauled from
the east in a single wagon. Of course
there were no buffalo, for this was in
the late seventies, but thelr bones
strewed the plains, and these bones
were the only thing that had a com-
mercial value, and they were utilized.
They were hauled In great wagon
loads to the nearest rallway, often
from sixty to a hundred miles away,
and The horns were the more
valuable, and they went first, but the
rest of the skeleton soon followed.
There were no fortunes made by these
early bone hunters, for a large load of
buffalo bones brought only from $5 to
$8 at the railroad towns, but the pro-
ceeds from a load enabled the settler
to buy a little flour, coffee and occa-
sionally meat and lumber. — Kansas

How It Struck the Parrot.
Here Is the latest parrot story. A
certain retired general of the Indian
army possessed a parrot and also a
very lIrascible temperament. The par-
rot was a valuable bird, but was rather
a nuisance by reason of its extreme
talkativeness. One day while the gen-
eral was writing his business letters
the parrot kept up a continual chatter,
very disturbing to the writer. At last
the general could stand it no longer,
and, jumping up, he selzed the cage of
the unhappy bird, which he whizled
vigorously round and round, at the
same time shouting furiously. Then
he set the cage down again, and sl
lence for some time ensued. At length,
however, a feeble voice came from the
interior of the cage.
“General,” it inquired in quavering
accents, “where were you when that
cyclone struck us?'—London Tit-Bits.
Royalty's Game,
have always been a royal
game. Queen Elizabeth played cards
and lost her temper over them fre

to play “like a queen, without passion
of greed or gain” In her reign was
commanded to be played “at Wynd-
sore a Comedie or Morral devised on
a game of the cardes,” wh’ uh resulted
in the performance by the children of
ber majesty's chapel of “Alexander and
Campaspe.” in which the pretty lines
