THE. GREAT JOKE, A
Funny Side of Dying Often Treated
of In Literature.

Funny Side of Dying Often
" of In Literature.
DEATH" said a publisher, has been
treated humorously in our literature
often. Indeed 1 am quite sure that a
collection of many thick volumes might
be made under the title Of Deaths
Funny Side Thomas Hood was one
of our best writer's Of this sort of
verse. Don't you remember his ballad
on the young sailor who died heart
broken over his girls unfaith? The
last stanza was: E&j ,|e
Ellis death, which happened in his berth.
AT forty odd befell;
They went and told the sexton, and
The sexton tolled the bell.
"Hood did another ballad on the sub
ject of a soldier who lost both legs in
battle, who was in consequence Tilted
by his sweetheart and who then hung
himself. Now, that is rather tragic, is
it not? 1t has a bizarre but none the
less poignant tragic note. Guy de
Maupassant indeed once handled al
most this same, situation, but he han
died it from the opposite viewpoint,
and don't you remember how he mar
rated the first, the crucial, meeting Of
the lovers after Ben Battles double
amputation?
"But when he called on Nellie Gray
She made him quite a scott,
And when she saw his wooden legs
Began to take gthem off. L
"This treatment drove Ben to de-
spair:
$50 round his melancholy neck
A rope he did entwine
And for the second time in life
Enlisted in the line.
"And there he hung till he was dead
AS any nail in town;
For, though despair had cut him up.
1t could not cut him down.
"There is a tremendous literature of
humorous epitaphs. There must be,
fancy, 10000 of these, but two Of them
are all ] can recall. The first goes:
Here lies the body Of mild Maria;
She went one day to, start the fire,
But the wood was green,
So she used Kerosene +.
And now she's where the fuel is drier.
"The other is grimmer:
Lie IS a lie, ana all lnlngs snow II;
I thought SO once, and now I know it.
"Then there are songs on the side
splitting aspects of death, some Of
which have caused tender hearted la
dies to double up with mirth. Johnny
Jones and His Sister Sue is one such
song, and I bet that six people out Of
ten in America know it by heart.

FROG FARMING IN CANADA :
The Industry Officially Reported to Re

The Industry Officially Reported to Re
Profitable and Growing.
Frog farming as an industry is as
suming large proportions in many
parts of Canada Not only are large
shipments of frogs legs made from this
country to the United States, but there
is a growing demand for the luxury in
many of the large cities Of the -.
minion
One of the most successful frog farms
is in Ontario. Last year it produced
5000 pounds of dressed frogs legs and
1000 living frogs for scientific pur-
poses and for stocking other waters.
The deputy commissioner of fisheries
for Ontario reports that in the past
year the number Of applications-Were
made to the government for leasegsoe
lands suitable for this industry No
licenses were, however, granted, as
was found that the territory concerned
was already being farmed by NUM-
Der of people.
It is safe to assume that in the very.
near future much land now idle will be
stocked with frogs. All that is neces-
sary for this purpose is to place q few
paired breeders in the water Natural
food is almost always present in sufi-
cient amount for successful growth.
The species considered to be most
profitable, on account of its size, is the
eastern bullfrog, Rama catesgiana,
which reaches a length of more tlanl
eight inches 1t begins to breed at III
end of three years is very produG
and reaches a marketable size in
or five years.
Only tie hind legs are marketed, al
they average half a pound a pair ii
