And our eggs are large and white, they

"We like swamp land, and land that
others make a fuss about. We're not
cranks about the land we're given for
our homes."
"Well," said Mr. Gander, after a
1 pause, "are you through?"
"For the time being," said Mrs.
Goose. ,
"Well, then, I will talk," said Mr.
Gander.
"Go ahead," said Mrs. Goose.
"I'm not going ahead at all," said
Mr. Gander. "1 shall stand quite still.
I will not walk if 'I do not want to
walk. And as I don't want to walk I
will not walk."
"I didn't mean ?ou were to go ahead
walking," said Mrs. Goose.
"Oh, Goosey, Goosey," saiil Mr.
Gander, "how did you expect me to go
ahead? On my head, perhaps?"
I "No, no, no!" shrieked Mrs. Goose,
In her shrill voice. "I meant you to go
ahead with your talking, and not walk
ing."
"Oh!" said Mr. Gander. "Why didn't
you say so in the first place and not
waste all this valuable time?"
"Is the time so valuable?" asked
Mrs. Goose.
"Of course, said Mr. Gander.
"What makes you think so?" asked
Mrs. Goose.
"I don't think so," answered Mr.
Gander, "but It is so. Just the same.
When they were all deciding that time
was valuable they didn't stop to ask
my opinion."
[ "They wouldn't ask the opinion of a
gander," laughed Mrs. Goose, her pink
bill wiggling with amusement.
"And neither would they ask the
opinion of a goose," said Air. Gander,
standing very straight, his beautiful
j white body looking very handsome.
His orange legs also made him seem
very tine looking.
"Tit for tat," said Mrs. Goose, in a
shrill voice. \
"Do you wish me to talk?" asked Mr.
Gander, proudly.
"Oh, go ahead," said Mrs. Goose.
"You made that mistake before,"
said Mr. Gander, "and made me quite
confused."
I "Well, you're a silly gander," said
Mrs. Goose.
"And you're a silly goose, which is
worse,"- said Mr. Gander. "As t you
mean me to talk ahead and not go
ahead I will do so.
"What I wantto say is this:
"if ever I heard a goose live up to
what was expected of her—that is, to
be u regular silly goose—you did it
when you talked so long without stop
j ping.
"You told me all about ourselves, our
ways and our habits, and everything
i you could think
! of which would go
| in a book or
j story about the
K ni il e ii U e e s e
family.
•"If you had
been talking to Ig
norant creatures
who didn't know
about us — that
would have been
one thing; but to
tel! me such
things was silly,
indeed. I know
all about our fam
ily history, just as
mum aa juu uu.
"Oh, perhaps "We Can Do the
you do." said Work Better."
Mrs. Goose.
"Of course I do," interrupted Mr.
Gander.
| "Of course you do," said Mrs. Goose,
"but you don't seem to know that
creatures can repeat what they know.
I can repeat what I know about my
family just as children can tell what
their daddies did when they were lit
tle and Just as they can recite poetry
in schools."
1 , "You have no sense, no sense;
I you're a goose all right," said Mr. Gan
der, and Mrs. Goose grinned and said:
"Well, you wouldn't have me a ca
nary bird, would you?"
Figure It Out.
"Anything I can do for you?" asked
a surgeon as he passed the bad of a
milling but badly wounded soldier.
"Yes, doctor, perhaps you can tel!
me something TA very mueh like to

"Fire ahead," replied the doctor.

Joseph ("Yellow Kid") Weil Says Barnum Was Right
JOLIET, ILL.—"Ti\ke It from me " It's Joseph Well, the one and only
"Yellow Kid," the erstwhile millionaire slicker, the sartorlally select nim
ble-wit, the man who made wire-tapping famous, In short, the world's greatest
"con man" talking. In the old days
It was "Take it from them." wow u
is "Take it from me" A whiskerless,
. morose convict—No. 6162 at Joliet
penitentiary—Kid Weil was giving out
an interview.
"Take it from me," he said, mean
ing advice, of course. "If Chicago was
to be sold for a ten-dollar note to
night I couldn't buy n decrepit fac
tory whistle. I'm down and out. I
"haven't even got my, my—whiskers.
rTAKE IT

"it it were not tor tDe separation
from my wife and daughter and the disgrace, I would be as'contented as the
proverbial cow," he continued. "I am well treated here and I like the work—
but I am a ruined man." # *
"Hare you any advice to give—any word to say about the slicker busi
ness?" he was asked.
"Only this—confidence games, or high finance as I prefer to term It,
would not be possible were It not for the aid of business men who grasp for
riches over night. They are willing helpers In the fleecing game. Go to
the average business man with a scheme for skinning some one else, offer to
take the consequences of the law on your own head and promise him big
returns and he won't let you out of his office until you are willing to take
his money.
"No honest man enters a wire-tapping game^and no honest man expects
to get rich over night. To mlmlmlze confidence games, I suggest that the
'sucker' should be made equally culpable with the 'con man' when he expects
to beat someone else out of the money.
"But"—Kid Well hesitated and jerked out one of'the old-time laughs—
"Barnum was right."

Are You a Barometer?
Undoubtedly there is a great rela
tion between the elements and certain
complaints in the same way that some
spasons of the year render certain peo
ple liable to illness more than others.
The lower we investigate In the ani
mal world the more prone are its 'sub
jects to be affected by the weather. A
j cat for as much as three days before
' hand feels a coming storm; a horse's
i fine nostrils can sniff approaching rain
tn an uncanny manner. The birds of
the air have but to be watchtd to see
the way in which they seek their nests
at a hint of danger in the air. The very
trees and plants tremble In a peculiar
manner before a severe storm. Many
human beings are just as sensitive to
the march of the elements, but do not
always realire the significance of their
I sensitiveness. People who suffer from
j gout, rheumatism or neuralgia know at
once when bad weather is approach
ing. Old wounds make themselves felt
1 act certain times, and the stumps of
members long since amputated give
pain. Medical men have never sat
isfactorily explained these strange phe
nomena, neither can they tell why
some people instinctively become rest
less and excited or moody, or sullen be
fore thunderstorms.
Wilton Not the Only One.
One other president than Wilson
traced his line to Carlisle, England;
for Zachary Tayicr was fifth in de
| scent from Jame«, Taylor of Carlisle,
who emigrated to Jils country in 1658.
Considering the fairly' uniform British
<fitractlon of our presidents, few In
deed could have gone to the homes of
I really near ancestors in the British
tsles. Andrew Jackson is the only one
whose father was born there, the elder
Jackson huving come from Carrickfer
£cs, Ireland, a decade before the Rev
olatloq. Grant is not particularly dis
tinguished In that his family had been
American in all its branches for eight
generations; as much could be said of
■others. It seems appropriate that the
i first president In office to visit the
1 mother country felt so intimately the
ties of blood that originally gave it
the name of mother country.—New
