WAITING TO SHOW OFF

you're a swindleT," exclaimed
Mrs. Cobb, as she entered the bird
store. You're worse than a highway
robber. You ought to be ashamed
of yourself to cheat a poor, innocent
woman the way you did. That par
rot I bought from you last week is a
fraud You said it was fluent talk
er and you charged me big price for
him, too, and that bird hasn't said
a single word since I got him. not
one word. Do you hear me? Not
one-single-wordp
Perhaps" suggested the bird fan
cier, mildly, you didn't give him a
chance"

The Mule

This is between you and me-that
doesn't look ike mule, does it? 1t
looks more like a chewed up end of
a pencil, doesn't it? But the sketch
er who painted it says it's mule,
even if it's anatomy is hunched all
out Of shape like a straphanger.
All right, Rembrandt, have it your
own way, but the mule hasn't any
thing on you for stUbbOrnness. Not
mentioning any labels but there's a
big political party that has the mule
for a mascot Just like the stub
born mule that balks on the railroad
track with the Sis coming along 80
minutes late these politicers do the
same stunt right in the road Of kid
Mars" the boy with the iron fist
haymaker.
Excuse me, Leopold, but who gets
the worst of it, the mule or kid
Mars?" Why silly, kid Mars" of
course, he gets the WURST OF 1T.
The last three words in the SEN
tence above are deep stuff, read
them over again and see if you get
the drift. You'd think on account
of the big ears the mule would be
very attentive to your orders,
wouldn't you? But he amt. You
could yell and warn him till you are
groggy and it would all go over his
ue~r ike a tent,

THE NEIeHeoRs, o Y

THE NElGH6oRs' BOYS.
When nights are short and beastly
hot,
And sweating nightmares are your
lot
Throughout the watches Of the night,
You do not sleep or sleep is light.
But when the east is family lit
You fall asleep a little bit.
TITS then the loud-lunged neighbours
boys
Begin their wild and fendish noise!
Five times around the house they run,
Ten times they boiler, "Ain't 1t iun!"
They pull the bulldogs futile tail,
And draw from every cat a wall.
They pinch a squirrel on the nose,
In piping tones they madly fight,
Douse n another with the hose,
And each one bawls with all his might!
The neighbors' boys will sleep all day
While you. alas are making hay.
The parents of these ids. 1t seems,
Have storm.proof ars and pleasant
dreams!

Refreshing Comedy
In Colonial Show

The Jack Hutchinson Musical Com.
edy Company which is at the Colonial
this week, Is SO far above the average
that they should not be classed as a
tab show, for they are as refined
q lot OF real performers, both on and
OF the stage, as ever came to town.
Their comedy, though light, is clean
and wholesome and presented In such
o manner as to bring forth a maximum
amount Of. laughter without the strenu.
Gus efforts often employed by the many
would-be comedians. The answer Is
simple. they are just natural born
laugh getters." The voices, too, are
excellent. .
