Competent to Give It.

The old gentleman wondered where
the young couple had got to, for It
was getting late. He rather suspect
cd they had wandered out into the
garden. 20 he wended his steps IN
that direction. He soon came across
the young people. and found them In

Young man had the fair girl clasped
in both his arms. and was kissing her

The old gentleman watched the

which he found to be somewhat weary

known.

AS to Chickens.

They are the most dadbusted. ID
certainest creatures that walk sne
family acre. Almost everybody tries
to raise chickens at one time or an
other. Looks easy-that's the decei~
ing part OF it.
And it is easy, after you learn one
thing: Little chickens don't know
anything, medium sized chickens
don't know anything. big chickens
don't know anything. II there is a
change Of an Intellectual nature az
the size increases big ones know less
II possible than little ones.
II there is q wire partition In yoqz
pen with an open door at one end the
chickens will try to plunge through
the wire instead of going around and
walking through the door.-Puck.
