Story of n Scarecrov.

There is an honest Swede EMPLOYED A.
a gardener IN the East End, and his DELHI
crate speeches are source of much delight
to his employer He has been much an
noyed by thievish birds, and a few DAYS
ago suggested that "a scarecrow would be a
good thing. 1t took him some time to
make the employer understand what he
meant, but finally he realized il was a
dummy bird scarer, s'lak in OF country
The employer fell in with the idea and
told the Swede to rig up frame. When
this was completed the latter was given a
bundle of cast-off clothing to deck out his
dummy He looked askance at the gar
ments as he put them on the sticks and
was evidently much impressed by their ex-
cellent condition. He glanced down at his
own clothes from time to time and seemed
to be making a silent comparison. Present
iy he put the scarecrow in the garden and
returned to his employer, who stood at
some little distance. He looked at the work
of art with his head very much on one side,
and finally said:
Say, mister
"Well, John?"
Gay tank maybe it was better / change
clothes with scarecrow, or else stand myself
in his place"
He couldn't bear to see the dummy wear
ing better clothes than he did.-Cleveland
