Goose an Old Mans Guard.

When travelling along the road from
Legars toward KennelstoAehead Cot
tages, Stichill, Kelso, l met an old
gentleman walking with the assistance
OF clutches, and goose following as
closely as possible behind him, AYERS
q writer In the Scotsman. I stopped
and spoke to the old man and the
goose at once took up its position be-
tween his leg and the crutch on the
side nearest to me. It then proceeded
to make as much noise as possible,
and assumed all the defiant attitudes
imaginable.
On my approaching within few
feet of the old man it at once flew
at me, ard pecked, or rather bit, vio-
lently at my legs. 1 tried to keep it
at bay by pushing it away with my
feet, but that was of no avail, and I
had ultimately to strike it over the
bill with my walking stick to make it
release its hold on my trousers. I
found out later that it. had bitten a
considerable piece of skin off my leg.
The old gentleman informed me
that the goose follows him wherever
he goes, and during stormy weather
when he cannot venture outside it
spends the day at the door of his cot
tage or else near by. :

Stair climbing is thing he never
does except under compulsion. When
he reached Herbert's home it was
just 20 minutes of IL. The servant
telephoned up to the music room.
Tell him to come right up" said
Mr.. Herbert.
Mr.. Herbert's fat friend began
climbing. He paused at the top of the
first flight to breathe little while.
His pauses grew longer and more i'm
passioned at the end of each succeed

floor he was just able to dab a damp
hand at Herbert and sit down in a
stuffed chair, and begin to remove the
evidences of internal heat from his
streaming forehead. Mr.. Herbert

LEASES BRING THE Cash

The commissioner of school and
public lands in his report just issued
states that during 1912 1926. 56 acres
of state land were leased for farming
purposes, for an aggregate of ST.
$50. SO, all of it being located in good
farming communities, there being q
minimum rate of So per acre fixed by
the new law for the leasing of 1t. The
rental received from the common
school lands was $500 ,37l. 90 for 1912,
an increase of $52, 79s. IA over the re-
cetpts for 1911. 1t is more remark
able because of the extremely dry
season of 1911 leasing conditions were
very unfavorable and because %. 49,
AZ acres of the land owned by the
state for this purpose in 1911 were
sold and therefore could not be leased
in 1912. In all 800, O96. 76 acres of
common school lands have been sold
since statehood, for $9,037, 1855. 90 at
an average price of $22.S2 per acre,
and the sales of the endowment lands
aggregates $1.lo6,o 75 50, making a
permanent fund of $40, 14s, 1881. 20.
About third of this sum is still out
standing on deferred payments, but
the balancing two thirds is all loaned
out at five per cent. The commissions
er states that he believes that South
Dakota's school fund of over ten
million dollars has had a decidedly
beneficial affect in keeping down the
rate of interest exacted by private
loan concerns.
