Shoeina the Geese.

Every year In December goose fair
q held in Warsaw on a gigantic scale.
It is estimated that on an average no
less than 100000 geese are driven to
the town and sold. These have to
travel from 40 to $50 miles on foot.
Most Of them come from the Wilma dis
trict to the northeast of Poland. To
enable the birds to stand these long
journeys the geese are shod. The
method Of shoeing them IS simple and
interesting. They are made to walk
to and fro for q time in raelted tar,
hot enough to stick, but not so hot as
to burn. Then they are turned loose
on sand heap. The result is a pair of
shoes that are durable enough to last
on the journey.-New York Tribune.

over Langdons offer. Its genuineness

Haines? We-eh--I-I know my fa-
ther would like to have you"
AS he stood before his two new
found friends-for such Haines now
considered the MissiSsipian and his
daughter-he could not suppress feel
ings of surprise tinged with uncertain
ty. He had, like other newspaper men,
received offers of employment from
politicians who desired to Increase
their influence with the press. Some
times the salary offered had been large,
the work so light that the reporter
could "earn" the money and yet retain
his newspaper position, a scantily dis
guised species of bribery, which had
wrecked the careers Of several promis-
ing young reporters we'll known to
Haines, young men who had been thus
led into "selling their columns" by un-
scrupulous machine dictators.
Haines knew that the Mississippian
had no ulterior purpose to serve In his
offer, yet he must have time to think
over the proposal.
81 thank you, senator" he finally
said. 81 appreciate the opportunity,
eeasias-fTeaa-5Ea but LIE never
thought of giving up the newspaper
profession. It's fascinating career
one that am too fond Of to leave"
Langdon started to reply, when a de-
lightfully modulated southern voice in
terrupted:
"Father, I've been out with Mrs.
Spangler to look for some other rooms.
/ don't like this hotel. and found some
that | do like"
Haines turned to see handsomely
gowned young woman who had the
stamp of a patrician's daughter in her
bearing and her countenance-a bru-
