dock of milch goats. The iioarding
house keeper now has three female
goats. Night and morning she leads
her llock to the grass covered vacant
lots on the hillsides, where the animals
'mil all the food they need.
i he goals al first, unaccustomed to
the city, created disturbances by their
weird bleats. They new seem very
much at home. Miss Ellner says she
expects tu get more goats.

Before the clocks were set forward
one hour Si Rockwell's jackass would
begin braying every morning promptly
at S o'clock. The children would knew
it was time for school and scamper oil'.
The jackass has kept up the practice
for two or three years and all efforts
of the people to make him understand
the change of time have failed. Any
one who knows of any plan whereby a
jackass may be made to understand
(he change of time should make it
known. The school teacher is con
stant ly complaining that some id the
children get there loo early and conse
quently get into mischief.

Just Little Stories
A party of children in one of the res
idence sections of the city discovered a
sparrow the other day with its feet and
wings stuck fast in a puddle of crude
oil boiled out of a paved street by the
recent hot sunshine. The youngsters
thought the bird dead. Stanley Schmelt
zer, an aggressive leader of the young
sters of the neighborhood, proposed a
funeral with all of its accompanying
formalities. I
Young Schrneltzer, not yet 10 years
old, proceeded to a telephone and called
S. E. Bartmess. Mr. Bartmess likes a!
joke, and when he comprehended the j
situation, he proceeded to the scene. ,
He found that the unfortunate sparrow
was not dead, but too badly injured to
survive. He dispatched it. i
"Now," said Mr. Bartmess, "we '
will dig the grave," and the bird was!
borne solemnly to a backyard garden. I
"We must have a funeral," said Mr. i
Bartmes- when that task was accom-pli.-hed.
Stanley, you'll have to act as
the minister and olfer a prayer. j
The little boy was equal to the oi-ca-,
sion. He dotted his cap, and kneelimr '
beside the dead bird, enveloped in 1
wreaths of flowers, said with utmost
gravity:
"Oh God, please bless the undertaker
fur killing the sparrow."
