The secretary of the interior has re-
ceived a number of letters recently
concerning the occupancy of patented
lands within government parks in

GEESE.

EVERY child who has the use
Of his senses knows goose.
See them underneath the tree
Gather round the goose-girl's knee,
While she RAIDS them by the hour
From the works of Scho-pen-hau-er
How patiently the geese attend!
But do they really comprehend
What Scho-pen-hau-er's driving at?
Oh, not at all; but what of that?
Neither do I; neither does she;
And, for that matter, nor does he.
