How Squirrels Supplied Flock of Sheep

An American sportsman out duck
shooting in Maine relates how he
stopped to rest in an old field in which
there was an orchard. A flock of sheep
was feeding near by. 1t was not long
before his attention was called to the
chipping of some squirrels in a thicket,
and he was surprised to see the sheep
suddenly stop feeding and manifest
great excitement. The squirrels went
into the orchard, and. climbing into one
Of the trees, resumed their loud clat-
ter, evidently calling the sheep, since
the flock made at once for the apple
tree. Then the squirrels began to bite
off the apples, which fell among the
hungry sheep who would struggle for
the fruit like so many school boys. The
squirrels seemed to enjoy the fun, and
after they had dropped a few apples
from the first tree they skipped to a
distant tree, for which the sheep would
make in great confusion. After the
squirrels had thus enjoyed an hours
fun with their heecy neighbors and
supplied them with a sufficient quaint

to their haunts in the thlcket leaving

His fingers over the keys.
OF the trim ad setter. sleek and slim.
Who five days takes his ease;
But the easiest thing in the hardest

Since the printing trade began,
Is the back-bent, shoulder-rounded plug,
The patient makeup man.
Sing hey, for the makeup man,
The sloppy makeup man,
The first to chip his coin for the beer,
The last to get at the can.

He correCts the mistakes.
And all the bad breaks.
Yet they curse the hUmp-backed
