THEY FOUND A NOVELTY.
Experience OF Uncle Ezra and Aunt Try
phena at the Worlds Fair.

phena at the Worlds Fair.
Uncle Ezra Norton and his wife, Aunt
Tryphena, came in from Climax Prairie
to do the Worlds fair, and they made
their headquarters at the palatial North
Side residence Of their famous nephew,
Colonel j. $. Norton, author, Egyptolo-
gist, barrister and orator. Colonel Nor.
ton thinks great deal of Uncle Ezra
and Aunt Pheeny. And well he should,
for when he was boy down at Lock
port he used to visit the Norton farm
out in Climax prairie about six times a
year, and he'll never forget the fun he
had rounding up Uncle Ezra's calves,
sheep and hogs and eating Aunt Pheeny's
doughnuts.
The first thing Colonel Norton did
after the old folks came was to impress
upon their minds the wisdom of going
about their sightseeing in a calm, method
ical way. He represented-very truly,
too-that much time and energy would
be wasted unless a strict plan of opera
tions was adhered to in doing jackson
park and its very numerous entertaining
and instructive features.
II speak from experience, from bitter
experience" said he, "for it was after
two weary weeks of reckless, haphazard
plunging that | became convinced that
the only way to see the Worlds fair in
telligently and comfortably is to take its
sights in regular order, just as you would
do picture gallery"
This view impressed the old folks ia
vorably. On Tuesday morning they
started out bright and early for jackson
park, and they were full of the good
resolution to do everything decently and
in order. They left the cattle cars at
Sixty-frst street and were soon at the
entrance to the fair grounds. Having
passed through heturnstile, it occurred
to Uncle Ezra that it was his duty to
impress upon Aunt Tryphena's mind
once move the importance of going at
their sightseeing in a methodical way.
Now, Pheeny," says the old gentle
man, "well do jest what James told us
to. Well take things in jest as they
come. We've got fortnight in which
to do it all, and that's a-plenty time eff
we only go at it the right way. Now,
s'pose we begin right here, an keep on
doin the sights to the right till we've
seen enough for today, and then agin to-
morrow we'll take up where we left of
today"
At this moment the old gentleman's
vigilant eyes detected a sign bearing the
legend, Exit"
"Gosh!' says he, what new tangled
notion is that, wonder? Did you ever
see an exit, Tryphena? l never did, SC
suppose we begin right here an go in and
see it."
So in the enthusiasm of curiosity,
guileless Uncle Ezra and Aunt Tryphena
made their way through the exit turn
stile, only to find themselves in Stony
Island avenue, within so feet of the gate
at which they had just paid their money
for admission to the fair grounds.-Ch

And cupless acorns cracklo meath your feeS
No breeze. no breath, veereth the oasthouse

Whence tho faint smoke floats fragrantly

And. In tho distance. the half haxy woods
Glow with the barren glory Of decay.

Funeral mist comes creeping down the dale.
And widowed Autumn weeps behind her veil.
