What Dolls Think,

1t is true we're stuffed with saUaust
And can never learn to walk:
It is true we have no organs
And can never learn to talk;
1t Is true we're only dollies
And dollies must remain,
But we're free from faults and follies
That might aus our mothers pain.
Can you tell US when you ever
Saw IL faces spoiled with frowns7
And we're sure o neve heard us 2
Make n fuss about our gowns.
Then we do not tease the kitty,
We are always kind In play,
And we think 'twould be a pity
For a doll to disobey.
When the parlor clock strikes sever
Not a fretful word Is said
As our little mothers tell us
1t is time to go to bed.
SO you see. though we are dollies
And dollies raust remain,
We are free from faults and 5ol Jet
That might cause our mothers pain

Mud Hen Shooting.

Friday last was a great day with
sportsmen. The cunning season open
ed in earnest aud the thoroughfares
were dotted with gunners in quest of
mud hens. A party of four from
Edgeton Inn including j. Albert Harris,
Jacob G. Wall, Joseph A. Coke and
Meredith Z. Jones secured Jarvey
Sound and killed thirty-four mud hens
and one bittern. The birds We're taken
to Caterer Adams, at the Ruric, and a

In the party were the gentlemen above
named, Mr.. and Mrs. Ray Lippincott,
Mr.. and Mrs. William Briscoe, Mrs. j.
A. Harris, Mrs. NJ. L. Jones, Mrs.
Joseph a. Coke, Mrs. Sharon and Miss
Pyle.
Elmer E. Hansell, a Wildwood cot.
tager, and William Turner, proprietor
of the Hereford House, Anglesea, went
the limit and brought back thirty birds.
Mr.. Hansell was the marksman, while
Mr.. Turner appeared as a '%'pushero for
the first time. Mr.. Hansell is a crack
shot and Mr.. Turner vas content to do
the pushing while admiring his COM
panion's skill. Mr.. Hansell uses a
Parker hammerless 12-gauge gun, and
took another turn on Saturday with
like results.
Charles H. Newcomb, backed by
"Benny Hawking as pusher, appeared
at his best Friday morning and got his
thirty birds in the twinkling of an eye
most of them Icing killed on the wing.

Judge Jones, Anne Maria's father,
had been at college with the captain.
Naturally when n business deal
brought the captain to the judges town
he was made very welcome In tie
Jones home. Naturally also Alonz ,
who came along, went down Def ore
Louella, the beauty. Then the captain
called him names and sent him pack
ing, saying gruflly, "If you want my
money to go to charity just marry any
thing named Jones'"
When Louella heard that she tossed
her head and went on n long visit to
her city aunt. Anne Maria stayed t
home, keeping very much out Of the
captains way, but getting up such
dishes for him as he had not tasted
since his mother died. Good feeding

captain must have been born to get

gave Anne Maria Il caution at the end

tain ill-tOo ill to be in his seat-but
really l don't believe it is possible. He
has the stomach of an ostrich, al
though he talks dyspepsia half the
time.
Anne Maria sighed, then smiled, but
said nothing. She studied half the
night and next morning said privately
to the Judge: Don't come home to
lunch, father. | shall send something
to the office. And be sure you keep
the captain to eat with you" Then
she disappeared in the direction of the
kitchen, smiling oddly, and also sigh
ing the least bit In the world.
"NVhat have we here? As l live,
fried pies! Jerusalem, how my mouth
waters. | can eat an acre of 'em any
day. the captain cried as toward /
o'clock that day Judge Jones threw
back the damask cover Of the laden
tray that had just been set on top of
his big desk. And I'm hungry as a
wolf! This is luck!" the captain went
on, selling one of the rich brown
greasy half moons and popping the
end Of 1t into his mouth. 1t came away
with a clean semicircular cut some
thing less than four inches across.
"Dried peach pies!" the captain mum
bled ecstatically, chewing hard. Sun
dried peaches too! Where, where did
you find 'em, Jones? Never tasted any
thing so good In all my life!"
"You must ask the women" the
Judge said, chuckling behind his hand.
He began to see the method of Anne
Maria's madness. Hospitality he press
ed the other things on the captain, but
without avail. The first pie disappear
ed In exactly a minute. The second
required a minute and a half. Then
the Judge lost count, though his inter-
est was still keen. He smiled affably
, 1905-09-06

when the captain said in Il conscience
stricken voice:
God bless me, Jones, I've eaten ev-
cry pie! Such a pile of them too. But
you'll forgive me. | don't get 'em only
once in n blue moon. Besides, after this
tuck out l shan't want anything for at
least two days.
You're more than welcome" the
judge said Hospitality, lightin : a cigar.
The captain waved aside n proffered
pipe. Wouldn't spoil the after taste of
my pies for n fortune he sid. I'm
going right now to sleep away the after
noon. Indeed, l feel like sleeping till to
morrow morning"

agony. Not for naught had he coddled
and cosseted a stomach all these
years. 1t reSented angrily the burden
he had put upon it. Fried pastry had
been nothing to a boys digestion, but
to eat 1t with II boys appetite In late
middle age made 1t quite another thing.

night long. In the morning he was
weak and wan-so weak the bare
thought of food revolted him. He got
up and staggered about the room, but
found it idle to think of going out.
Then came the judge to whisk him
away to his house In spite of the cap
tain's weak and wavering protests.
Leave you here, Not much. Hotels
are dreary places for sick men," the
judge said heartily. meaning quite half
