Mr.. Lion lived next door TO Miss
Kangaroo. He was very fond OF roar.

One day when Billy Fox went TO take

and so loud that he made her jump
and lose her false tooth out OF her
mouth.
Billy Fox went home and told his
wife. He said he was going TO tell Mr.
Lion and have him stop roaring 80
NO indeed, don't do that!' said Mrs
Billy Fox. They'll both be angry. III

sight to happen along on fine day
when the parents are teaching their

Nutritiye Properties of Milk.

An adult person may live entlrer
upon fresh cows milk. and many who
are 81 dieted in our hospitals return to
their homes in a better condition than
when they left them, says American
Cultivator. The amount of real nour-
ishment in milk Is far greater than Is
generally supposed. 1t has been dem.
onstrated that "ten grains of new
cows milk when consumed in the body
produce sufficient heat to be equal to
q lifting power Of 1885 pounds one

bring home to our minds the great i'm

No Extra Compensation.

Judge Coffey yesterday declined to
grant the petition of Mrs. Anais Hale
for $500 extra compensation as ad-
ministratrix of the estate of Joseph p.
Hale. Mrs. Hale paid out of her own
pocket a judgment for $4,000 against
the estate for damages for injuries
sustained by a woman who fell down
the elevator shaft of the Supreme
Court building. The court held this
payment personal matter. Hereto
fore it was shown that Mrs. Hale and
Mrs. Josephine Boyle, Hale's daugh-
ter, bought up claims against the es-
tate under their face value. This was
contrary to law and the court would
not allow the claims. Judge Coffey
allowed A. d. Keyes a fee of 10000
for services as attorney to the estate.
The matter of extra compensation was
opposed by Attorney Matt Sullivan on
behalf of Ann F. Wright, one of the
heirs.
