The Clever Goose.

A lesson in social economy can be
learned from the goose. The letter,
v which they form in flight has its
origin in an instinct OF mutual aid.
Every wing stroke Of the rear birds
drives a strong current of air, for
ward, which helps to force the air
pressure on the leaders.
Perhaps we can gain a lesson in the
value of mutual help in the worlds
workin the Importance of effort to
make the burdens Of life easier for
the backward and the slow. But if
it has no strong moral lesson, it may,
at least, give us a better opinion Of
the scientific knowledge and economic
Justice Of the much despised goose.

The Cheerful Crouch on Landladies.

! Next to the mother-in-law joke, and
Irivaling the grandmother who dies on
"a baseball day, abhor that old bit of
,facetiousness about landladies." Thus
the Cheerful Crouch with a brow of
fury and a sweet smile.

ing proprietor of the third loor-back?
why do we lampoon on all occasions

furnish porter-house steak for six dol
lars week? Can we not find some
body to raise the voice in behalf of
Mrs. Hashem? She isn't half SO black
Jas she is painted, and even if she
were, there is every excuse. How
would any of us like to have every
meal disturbed with fear of what MT.
'Cross-Patch thinks of the meat? Or
whether Miss Lanky likes the des-
sert? Maybe there aren't enough bis
cults to go round, or the potatoes are
scorched? In your own private home
you can tell the good man or the chill
dren to eat light bread or go without
potatoes if they object to a slight
taste of the Empyreuma. But what
can Mrs. Hashem do? If her board
:ers leave the rooms are empty and
the rent goes on and she is unable
to meet her rent, or Mr.. Hornswoggle
skips his board bill. Oh, there are
million annoyances attached to cook
ing for other folks besides your own
family And if the landlady is ner-
4vous, anxious, hysterical and stingy
to boot, be patient. If she is gossipy
remember that you are her only ex-
tcitemen and make her daily round.
Above all, remember that if you don't
like her you can keep house-which
every woman ought to do, anyhow"
