Funny Fishermen.

It was an English boy who told me.
about it.
''You must catch a GOOSE he said,
'*and that is the hardest part. Then
you tie line which has baited hook
on one end to the gooses leg.
''Then let her go. She'll make fo-
the water every shot, and as she
swims about she, of course, draws
hook and line after her.
"Pretty soon fish bites and maybe
gets hooked.
'1Then the goose feels something
tugging at her leg, and she swims
along about as hard as she can, but
this only makes the tugging worse.
The only way to get away from that
awful something, she thinks, is to get
out of the water.

A New York paper tells o. a boy II
years of age who has travelled $4,000
miles. The boy was born in Shan

ocean and the American continent
seven times. He spent last summer.
with his uncle in Syracuse, and en-
tered a school at Arden City, Z. l.,
a few weeks ago. He speaks and
writes Chinese, Fpench and English.
and his knowledge of geography and
history is remarkable. One day last
summer he visited a man 80 years of
age who had lived in one town for 49,
years, and whose travels had been
limited to the ) neighboring villages.
