the outcome Of the voting is awaited
with keen interest,
Chairman Williams, Of the republi-

majority for the republican nominee,
but H. W, Gibson, progressive CAM
paign manager, disputes this claim.
lie maintains that the combined pro-
gressivc and democratic vote will pre-

majority necessary for election. The
progressiyes admit that Vermont 10

do not predict victory FOR the progress

THE CIRCUS HORSE.

Once upon a time l belonged to a
very cruel man. This man was very
poor and had to work hard for living
He had wife and four children, three
boys and one girl l belonged to the
girl. Her name was Mabel. One day
was sold to circus Mabel cried very
hard when she found out was sold.
But the circus needed sorrel horse
very badly. I was trained into very
skillful horse. Many were the lashes I
received from the trainer because I
could not do what the other horses did,
but finally I was as fine circus horse
as any of them. ...E -. ...~
My rider was very beautiful lady. She
loved me very much and I became very
much attached to her. One day as she
was riding on me there was young
lady in the crowd who cried out Its
Bailey, it's Bailey heard her and at
once knew it was Mabel. .....
After the show was out Mabel came
around and her young husband bought
me for $1,000. My mistress was very
sorry to give me up, but she had to.
But I get to see her quite often for she
proved to Mabel's aunt and after three
years more of ) circus life she came
home to live with Mabel. All have to
do now is to draw the new buggy with
auntie, Mabel and John in it, and have
people admire me. OF course I like
circus life but I like farm life better.

OLD CROSS PATCH.

Name was hard to please. In fact 1t
was of no use to try. She got up cross
and went to bed cross and that Is how
she won the name of Cross Patch.
There was but one thing she liked and
that was her doll. 1t had been brought
to her from France, and IT'S name was
Rose. No one must touch that doll but
herself, and she put on It's clothes and
this happened three or four times a
day. It was a great pet. Now, next door
there was small dog who did not like
dolls at all. To be sure 1t would play
with them, but in way that you
would not like If most girls played with
them.
One day Name left Rose on the porch
for a short time, and Pink found 1t out
and stole in through the gate and had
a good romp with the fine French doll.
How did she look when Pink got
through with her? Just fit for a rag
bag.
But Name had a new DOLL that could
talk and sing and so she did not miss
the doll Rose so much. But she keeps
sharp eey on Pink and takes good care
not to leave her doll where dogs can get
hold Of them no more. Pink knows she
does not like him and when he barks
1t sounds as II he said Gross Patch,
Cross Patch"

dog came and chewed up my best doll.
But one cannot mend things we'll with
