Uncle Eii's Fable.

As two jackals and fox were trav-
cling In company they came upon q
dead chicken lying ON the ground. and
at once there was a quarrel between
the jackals as to which should have the
prize. They finally settled It by divid-
ing the chicken between them, leaving
the fox entirely out of the affair. An
owl who had observed the proceedings
asked the fox:
But where do you come into this
thing, Mr.. ReynardT
''Oh, take my share in natural phil
osophy," replied the fox. Firstly, that
chicken was killed and placed here for
an object. Secondly. the body was
poisoned; and, thirdly, there go those
jackais tumbling about and making
their last kicks.
MORAL:
"And may say further" observed
Reynard, as he scratched his ear with
his paw, that when you are offered
something for nothing it's a good idea
to let somebody else sample 1t first
