Al aDimaI Story For
Little Folks
The LovesiCk Hippo

Near the mouth of a large river in
Africa there lived a young Miss Hippo
potamus. She WAS not very proud of
her looks, and she always wrote her
name without the hyphen.
But one day as she was taking a
sun bath. with Just her nose and fat
back above water. there came by that
way a very wise professor of natural
history. who. seeing Miss Hippo at her
bath. seemed fun OF delight and cried
out: What beauty! What a beauty
I'd like TO take her with me- Poor
Miss Hippo was greatly excited and
ducked her head al once, as any well
hammered young lady would do at
such a time. When she came back to
the surface again the professor had
gone. but his words had turned Miss
Hippo's head.
He meant me. of course" she said
to herself. Then l must be handsome
after all, and he did say that he would

is an unusual wealth of vegetation of

admired by those who delight in rural

usual abundance of fruit of all kinds in
western New York and that the cherry
crop is so prolific that many growers
are not picking them; the price being
hardly sufficient to pay the cost Of
placing them on the market Mrs.
Ross stopped at St. Louis to inspect the
Worlds Fair on her way home, which,

Footbridge Is Safe.

DIR. ]. S. Prenti.s, manager of the
Hot Springs hotel, info. ms US that the
footbridge over the River at that point
has been repaired and is capable of
sustaining a weight of at least 10000
pounds, and is therefore perfectly safe
for any number of pedestrians who
may desire to cross upon it atany time.
An investigation Of its condition
shows that at no time has it been un-
safe. although = broken plank or two
in the foot~sy may have made it seem
little uncertain to timid people. DR..
Prentiss has had the bridge oveIhauled
with the view of a!laying public sus-
picion in relation to its safety and can
now assure people that there is not the
slightest danger in crossing it.

institution, from which he escaped sew

The asylum authorities refused to adj
NIT Gonyou when Sheriff Turner first
visited the institution, and it was not
until after he had conferred with the
Duluth officials several times over the
long distance telephone that he was
able to dispose OF his charge.
John Gonyou, father Of the young
man, who lives at Modoc, Ont, has
written to Sheriff Turner, explaining
that he is not in position to take care
of his son, as he is living with another
son and has no means. Gonyou was a

mitted to the asylum, and the asylum
authorities contended that he was not
