Two Liars.

/ A private in the regulars went to the
colonel of his regiment and asked for a
two weeks leave OF absence. The col
onel was severe disciplaniarian, who
did not believe in extending too many
privileges to his men. and did not hesi-
tate to use a subterfuge in evading the
granting of one.
Well" said the colonel, what do
you want a two weeks furlough foT?"
Patrick answered: Me wolfe is very
sick and the children are not well, and
If we didn't mind she would loike to
have me home fer a few weeks to give
her a bit of assistance"
The colonel eyed him for few min
utes and then said:
Patrick, / might grant your request,
but l got letter from your wife this
morning saying she didn't want you
home; that you were a nuisance when
you were there. She hopes l won't
let you have any more furloughs."
THAT settles it, oi suppose oi can't
get me furlough them" said Pat.
NO. I'm afraid not, Patrick"
1t was Patrick's turn now to eye the
colonel as he started for the door.
Stopping suddenly he said:

Certainly, Patrick. What is it?"

EXCURSIONISTS SAW
MOUNTAIN SHEEP

People on board the special Florence
& Cripple Creek train that carried the
Sunday school of the First Presbyter-
ian church to Glen Brook and Alta
Vista last Tuesday were afforded an
opportunity of witnessing a flock Of
mountain sheep on the heights above
the railroad track at a point some two
or three miles the other side of Cra-
ner. The sight was so unusual that
picnickers might have good look at
these remarkable and fast disappear
ing animals. But few people on board
the train had ever before seen the
mountain sheep in his native habitat.

And bought load Of crackers red,
And torpedoes round like balls Of lead,
And great big whirlers which you light
And then run off with all your might,
And flags and kites and pistol toys:
The kind to give to little boysj
And rockets which go whining high
To shoot bright stars around the sky;
And sticks to hold and turn about
While balls Of fire come popping out;
And drums to beat and horns to blow;
And things to shoot aud things to throw
And small balloons in colors gay
And hundred flags to give away;
In all about twelve dollars worth
To celebrate July the Fourth.

But started out before twas light
