argument:
The operetta is founded on the old
story of "Jack and the Beanstalk. "
Jacks mother is very poor and they
are obliged to sell their cow.
Jack sells the COW to a butcher
for some beans, which the butcher
persuades him to believe will bring
him some money. Jacks mother
throws the beans away, but they
take root and grow in a single
night. A fairy appears who tells
Jack about the giant, his gold and
| his wonderful hen which lays golden
eggs. She claims that the hen once
belonged to Jacks father, but was
stolen by the giant, and urges Jack
to climb the beanstalk and go to
1.-THE castle for it. Jack does so, en-
tiers the castle, is hidden by the
giants wife, and when the giant is
about to discover his presence, calls
for the fairy who at once appears
and charms the giant, while Jack
runs off with the hen.
Jack cuts down the beanstalk
when he reaches the foot, and he
and his mother live Gin peace and
| plenty" ever after. A party OF
Jacks playmates appears several
times on the scene.

can come here and crowd girls out OF
their fishing places"
Uncle Lille hunted up pole and line
and dug bait, and next afternoon at
two O'Clock Miss Kitty was at the
MILL On the way down she passed a
boy with string of fourteen suck
ers, and he halted long enough to say:
"They are thicker than feas down
there, and you orter see that fellow
haulin' them out! He don't even have
to spit on his bait!"
What fellow?" was asked.
"Why, the feller who's stoppin' at
the tavern. He's got the best place,
and he's hangin' right to it like a
hog!"
So the stranger was there, was he ?
And he's got the best place and was
sticking to it? Well, he would get a
jar. She wouldn't speak to him, of
course, but there are other ways of
jarring a man. A fixed look and a
toss of the head has done it times out
of mind.
Yes; he was there. He sat on the
beam, and he was using patent pole
and reel. That alone will provoke ire
in any villagers breast. The way to
haul up fish is to haul him, instead
of turning the handle of a coffee mill
for fifteen minutes.
Miss Kitty walked right up to the
stranger. He didn't even turn his
head. On the contrary, he caught an
other sucker. She coughed lightly.
Another sucker. She got ready her
pole and line. A third sucker! She
felt like striking the man over the
shoulders with the pole, but walked
