child made of his father was: "Oougle
doc oogle." This brief remark meant
that the youngster wanted to pull his
pas hair with his chubby little hands,
and the doctor, desiring to encourage
the baby in his acquisition of vocabu-
larry, which would enable him TO hold
his own in the grotesque prevarications
of life, cheerfully complied with the
little fellows request.
When the Doctors hair became so
thin it was no fun for little Harrison to
revel in it, he awoke one morning and
startled his indulgent parent by de.
manding: ''Odledeu whizee.'' Then
the baby at once began to put his de.
mands into execution by climbing upon
his fathers bosom and proceeding, with
a hair pin, to go after his eyes. Itawas
the first time the Doctor ever realized
that the child would have to be denied
any possible opportunity for having a

Keokuk & Western May Build
South.

Mondays Des Moines Capital says:
Z. M. Harbor, an attorney of Trenton,
Missouri, acting for unknown parties,
has purchased from Grundy and Living
stone counties, Missouri, the right OF
way of the old Des Moines & Chillicothe
railroad line between Chillicothe and
Trenton, piece of road bed about thirty
miles long on which no track has ever
been laid. The consideration was
$4,000.
1t is understood that the purchase
was made for the former Keokuk &
Western, now Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy Railroad company and that road
will extend its line from GAINESVILLE south
to Chillicothe, thus giving the road a
short line into Kansas City and open
ing up for it 2 section Of Missouri which
at present has no railroad facilities. o

Stories of the Streets
BY HOMER A. DYE.

Harrison s. Forgrave Jr. is brick,
His pa, the Doctor, says: "He's a
regular brick"
For two years Harrison Jr. has lived
with his parents at 1908 Clay street
bringing JOY to their home by his sunny
disposition, childish laughter and cum.
ing ways. Although little Harrison is
but two years old he has been able to
converse intelligibly for more than a
year.
At first his efforts in this direction, of
course, were crude, kind of hit or miss
stab at volapuk, the universal language
but there Eever has been a time when
the doctor could not understand him
perfectly.
Among the first verbal demands the

good time.

good time.
Recently Harrison Jr. has made rapid
progress 10 his juvenile education, until
he has acquired vocabulary which
would make old Santa Claus eyes bulge
with astonishment. He can now call
for "tars," "dumpin' dacks,' "oler
chimes, ""dack in de box'' and scores of
other modern inventions for the amuse-
ment and education of the twentieth
century Young American.
Doctor Forgrave has never denied the
child anything he asks for, realizing
that the baby has long rocky road be-
fore him, and believing that if he be-
comes accustomed to getting what he
goes after the habit will stay with him
in after years on the strenuous skirmish
line of life's battle.
1t is likely, however, to be different
hereafter with little Doctor Jr. A few
days ago while passing on Felix street,
accompanied by his mother, his bright
eyes spied the prettlest little red express
wagon ever was, standing in front OF a
toy store. 1t SO happens that in supply.
ing Harrison Jr. with toys the Doctor
lad overlooked the matter of a red ex.
press wagon. He has blue ones and
green ones and yellow ones, but it never
had occurred to the fond parent that
the child's cup Of happiness would never
be full until he owned red express
wagon with blue letters upon it.
All at once, in less time than it takes
to say John Robinson, Harrison Jr.
landed in the wagon, shouting eleefully
''get up dere Jerry an Colie.''
! Then the trouble began. If the Doc.
tor had been present he'd have bought
4 the wagon, hltched in and hauled the
baby home. He'd be willing to pay
horse or burro any day for the baby,
I"because," he says, ''there's nothing
too good for that boy, a regular brick .

"CONJOBBLE.

It has been our good fortune to dis cover in a German English dictionary. edited by a learned German. an Eng fish word which clearly ought to be in the English language-"Co Conjobble." It needs TO definition, and is worthy of Lewis Carroll. But a correspondent of the London Chronicle. who has been investig1tingg Dr. Feller's German dictionary, ayers that thousands of peorle are solemnly speaking English of this type:
