Useful Parrot.

     Uncaged and unattended, a parrot perches throughout the day on a chair outside of a store in Seattle, Wash., and advertises the wares to be purchased therein to all passersby. During the summer time he is particularly useful, his owner having taught him to make this announcement: ‘Ice cream cones-five cents. Right inside.” The appearance of a pedestrian in the vicinity of the store is a signal for the bird to repeat his announcement. The parrot has proven a great advertising card and has greatly boosted the business of the store to the advantage of the owner.
