Dakota legislature to report was the
one on the matter of double salaries
for state officers and employees The

.ly satisfied himself that it is the best
method of taxation. Marble was in
the Hills last winter spending u day in

THE two ears" the doctor will say
in this issue, ARE about thirteen and
one-half inches in length and arc
closely covered with whitish gray
fur such as is found on the exterior of
the ears of the California burro (Asi-
nus California;. The body. or stiff

emily made up Of the same variety of
cartilage and tissue that is in the
ordinary human hear piece. l have

practice. have I known a man of ma
ture years to acquire different pair
Of ears like this, without any apparent
lesion or scar such as would have in
evitably been visible If they had been
grated on.
1t was rumored about the marts of
trade that Apollo, the well-known
Greek god, had become sore on the
king for some act Of his and presented
him with the donkey ears as a mark
Of his dtsfavor.
The King denied this vehemently
when seen in his downtown office early
today. He was wearing the ears with
fancy little bells on them such as are
used by the muleteers of Spain and
Portugal. The chimes tinkled merrily
as he nodded or shook his head to
emphasize some remark.
THE report that Apollo and I are
at outs Is all bosh of the first water"
said he. while it Is really no bust
ness Of the general public whether I
have ass ears or elephant ears, I
might as we'll make a statement to
knock in the head these absurd ru-
mors that the ears were wished on
me against my will. ..
LAS a matter Of fact, I have always
wanted a pointed pair, such as now
have. When I was but child I used
to gain a great deal of innocent amuse-
ment by wagging my ears in school.
This feat was the envy Of my class
mates and the despair Of my teacher.
Ever since then I have given myself
certain ear exercises which Igo through
religiously every night to make my
ears larger and more supple. The
pair of we'll developed ears which I
am sporting is q result Of Vaughn
my ears up and down one hundred
times before breakfast in the morning
and wagging them sideways another
hundred times before take my pillow

What good are they? Why, the
mere novelty Of them would pay for
the trouble they cost me, If there
were nothing else to say for them.

Naturally the possession Of pair
Of long and furry ears by man of

One day the king was nosing about
the garage while the negro was mani

He determined to set his itching curl

the popular saying goes.

said he, and turned the stream of wa

on the regal dome.
The jet struck the kings mystery

the peculiar formation that his ears
have lately taken on. Mr.. Midas be-
ing a King, decided that he could at
