Had "Soios" Full OF "Mucilage."
A few years ago, while I was living
in Lebanon, N. H., there was a certain
Mr.. Bagley there who was noted for
trying to use big words, and also for
getting his remarks somewhat twisted,
says writer in the Boston Herald.
On certain occasion he had been
to farmers meeting at Hanover, and,
while returning, one of his neighbors
drove up behind him, and the con-
versatiPn turned on crops.
His neighbor asked: How is your
hay crop this season." Baveey re-
piled: swell, my hay crop is rather
short, but shall get my COWS through
the winter all right, for shall have
two solos full of mucilage."

Slosson is over fifty. The latter has
