THINGS GRAVE AND GAY
AS SEEN IN THE STREETS

A NICELY dressed girl was seen to
- lead a stubborn goat across the
street a short while ago. Bravely she
steered, the animal between the passing
wagons and street cars. Everybody Won
dered what she was doing with goat.
She was far too modest looking to be
an advertisement. and the goat looked
too young to be able to conduct himself
properly in any initiation wherein the
goat is supposed to figure, and yet there
was the girl and there WAS the goat.
While everybody was wondering what
the answer was she continued to coax
the animal along. and finally reached
the other side of the street triumphant
Then it that the answer was forth
coming, for she promptly handed IT over
to a pair of smiling urchins, VINO thank
ed her timidly for her assistance in
helping them cross the danger zone.
fT was Sunday morning. Baron Taxa
1 hira was out for an airing. The MORN
ing was mild and the baron was in one
of his usual pleasant moods. AS he
passed by one of the downtown windows
he paused to glance in. There were
three other people at the same time oc-
cupied in the same manner. One of this
party was a very small person arrayed
in a white sweater, white leggings and
white cap. He resembled a small snow
bird. Whatever it was, whether the re-
semblance to the peak of one of the ba-
rons own snow-clad mountains or just
the attractive little smile on the very
small persons face. he turned around
and in his most ceremonious manner
remarked:
Good morning..
The small person regarded him grave

tried, this time accompanying his re-
mark with the most formal of his state
bows.
1t had the desired effect. From puz-
z,ed expression the very small persons
face became one friendly smile. He
looked around, then initiating the ba-
ron's bow in a manner that did him
credit, he remarked:
"Morn-n-n- ming" After having ex.

A Cure for All Evils.

prevails that a silver coin from the
Christmas morning offertory is SOW

flesh is heir to. Accordingly, any
householder who happens to have an
ailing child or other person in the
house HES him to the clergyman of
the parish on Christmas morning, and
asks as favor a sacrament shilling
The coin given in exchange has to be
obtained by collecting a dozen pennies
from as many different maidens, and
then changing the coppers for silver

other abomination. What If the
boughs do catch fire? They can be
watched, and too many candles are
tawdry, anyhow. Also, red apples,
