Had One Just Like Her.

A man and his wife were out
riding in their newly acquired au
tomobile when they met a farmer
coming into town on a load of hay.
The road being narrow, the
farmer hesitated about turning
out, and stopped his team. The
man in the auto started to 90 by,
when his wife plucked him by the
sleeve and called out loudly:
"Don't you turn out for that
old hayseed. The idea of such a
thing! | won't stand It'll"
The man heistated a moment,
and the farmer, an ironical smile
lighting up his features, said, as
he began gathering up the reins:
"Never mind, Mister; I'll turn
out. Let her have her own way.
I've got one jes' like 'er at home.n

Poor Chap.

The teacher Of the school, in
looking round the room after the
children had taken their seats,
saw a new face. 1t pertained to q
little boy. She called him to her
desk.
"What is your name, dears" she
asked.
Tommy Hunter, ma'am," he
answered.
GLOW old are you7"
"Six. going on for seven"
"You don't look more than
FIVE" she said, after a careful
scrutiny. {" shall have to ask
you to bring me a certificate of
your age. When you 60 home at
noon ask your mother to write me
a note telling me when and where
you were born.o
After lunch, when then children
had reassembled in the school
room, Tommy presented himself
at her desk, flushed with triumph.
The glow soon faded from his face,
however, as he felt in his pockets
one after another, and failed to
find the note his mother had
written. He began to cry.
"What is the matter!' asked
the teacher.
"l-l've lost my excuse for
bein' born!" Sobbed Tommy.

PROLOGUE

When Il murder is committed
there is invariably a motive.
Sometimes it is obvious; some
times its presence is masked be-
hind a complesity of possibi1i-
ties until it is we'll nigh impos-
sible to disentangle the slender
skein Of fact from the warp and
woof ofprobability. But always
the motive is there. Look for
the woman" said Pere Tabaret,
the French detective, and in her
you will find the solution ofyour
mystery---D you find her," And
in the main he mas right. Yet it
is not always the obvious woman
nor the Obvious motive that is
responsible for a crime. Some
times the underlying cause rests
on deeper reasons than are ap-
parent even to the closest OBJ
server. Then only an accident
can give q clew to the real GRIM
inal. And so it is with 1.-The
Argyle Case"
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1913-09-04
The Lost Fairy.

The fairies i'll Sunny Land were wor-
ried. They had sent a little fairy
named Daisy to look after her name
sake flowers, and she had not yet come
home. For three whole days they had
waited for her.
SO at last the queen sent q little fairy
named Love to Daisy meadow to see
If h was there. Love started out on
q beautiful brown and black butterfly
She had j%ourneyed a few hours when
she came upon 4 group Of little gnomeS
all talking wildly and at once
What is the matter?' she asked
them.
Matter enough, matter enough" one
old shaggybeard growled. what do.
you think! An old witch has shut all
Of the tree elves up in the moon, and
the throne of the man in the noon has
been taken from him by the wizard
They are treating those poor elves just
shamefully.'
"Never mind" said Love, comfort
ing them. The queens fairy wand
will soon set that right" Then she
babe them goodby and hurried back
to the queen.
The fairy queen got her wand, and
waving it babe every one in the moon
to cone before her. Instantly the
great palace room was filled with elves
and, to the fairies joy. Daisy was
found among them.
The witch and wizard were there
also. The elves were set free at once,
and the witch and willard were pun
ished so that they let the fairies alone
ever after.
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1913-09-04
What the Birds Say.

Many birds notes are quite distinct
and sound like words that you know.
The robin seems to say: "Quick,
quick! Do you think-what you do,
do YOU Think
The bobwhite says: "Bobbobwhite!
MOre-mOre-wet."
Then there is the bobolink, "Bob-o-
lee, bob-o-linli. hobolink,' is his call.
The thrush says. drop it. drop it,
cover it up, pull it up, pull it up"
The blueiay calls, clay. jay, jay,
wheedle. whee-dle."
The cedar birds note is shorter,
''TZe, TIE, tze!!"
The song sparrow is more talkative.
Says he, 80 lit, olit. chip chip che,
char, che wiss. wiss. wiss!!'
Thus each small bird that visits the
neighborhood. either in passing or to
remain the season through, talks a
language that sounds more or less like
English, although it's meaning in bird
land is probably something quite diff
ferent.
