The Greedy Doc.

A greedy dog with large piece OF
meat in his mouth was crossing
low bridge over a smooth, deep stream.
Looking into the clear water, he saw
what he thought was another dog,
who also had piece of meat in his
mouth. Thinking to get this meat, in
addition to what he had, he made
a savage snap at the reelection, and,
thus opening his mouth, the meat fell
into the water with a splash and was

FIRST COL0RED EGGS.
How and Where This Charming Gus
tom Oriqinated.

During the cruSadcS n lady living in
castle along the line of march re-
ceived some chickens from man re-
turning from the east They were
great curiosity ana highly priced by
their gentle owner.
The men Of her family were cru
saders, and their absence was taken
advantage Of by some lawless neigh
borS, who commanded her to abandon
her home and seek refuge in the Black
forest. There she received protection
and kind treatment and lived several
years among very poor peasants. She
had taken her chickens with her and
took great pleasure in giving their
eggs to her poor neighbors.
She was particularly interested in
the children and devoted considerable
time to their instruction. She made a
rule to give a present to each child
ut Easter but each year she had few
err possessions.
This necessity suggested TO her the
novel idea of decorating some eggs
with bright colors, and to make them
still more interesting she concealed
them among the dry leaves in the for
est. The children were sent TO hunt
them and were greatly astonishcd and
delighted to find the colored eggs.
