The Ducks Complaint

A duck, who had faithfully stuck to
business during the summer and laid sew
eral dozen of large fawn-eolored eggs,
complained that she was not appreciated.
''See that hen over there?" said the duck,
''she hasn't laid SO many eggs as have,
nor so big, but she has books written
about her and verses composed in her
honor, while nobody is saying a word
about me-"
"The trouble with you is" said a wise
Buff Leghorn cock that was standing near,
''that you don't tell the public what you
have done. You lay an egg and waddle
off without saying word, while that sis
ter OF mine never lays one without letting

There were seen here number of
handsome bags of colored feathers
rich puppies, wines and greens, brought
out to match gowns of corresponding
colors, but the ever elegant black with
gold and gun metal mountings in all
the smart new shapes were singled out
among the others on account of their
style.
A particularly handsome vanity bag
was of black seal of generous proper

Miniature opera glasses which slip
