According to story which is going
the rounds a Western avenue citizen
made a mistake the other day which
came very near resulting in complica-
tons in the culinary department of his
household, but which was discovered
in season to prevent any serious
trouble The man had been up in the
lumber regions of the state and on re-
turning had brought home with him a
small deer, and as he had more veni-
son on hand than his family required,
on meeting young friend at a foot
ball game a few days afterward he
told him to call around at the house
when he returned home, as he had a
piece of venison for him. When the
young man got home he forgot about
the gift for the time being, and did not
think of it again until the man who
had brought the deer home called him
up on tho phone. When he arrived at
the house the man gave him q pack
age weighing about nine pounds, telling
him that it was venisOn. and he start
cd off, but wondering the while how his
friend had managed to get nine
pound junk of meat out of such q
small deer as he had seen him bring
home. The question in his mind was
soon settled however, for on his arrival
| home the other man called him up on
| the phone to tell him that he had made
| Il mistake, that the package did not
contain venison at all, but some beef
| that his wife had bought for mince-
| meat, and that if the young man would
| bring it back he would give him some
| venison, as he had intended.
