THE OTHER ANGLE
Miracles.

Cincinnati has shared the bandana!

Cincinnati has shared the bandana!
All the miracles on the marvel menu
have been committed now-but one.
When Washington snags guidon
the supernatural spinepiece of the

cially cracked.
And when Washington limps across
the sloughing September horizon with
seven other teams farther to the rear
than the S S, then we can begin to
look for a flock of other accidents
which have no other place to happen.
For instance, when Washington
grabs the gate receipts for the best
four out of seven base ball-pop-bottle
duets, street car fares will be two
for a pfennig.
Men will again speak in quarts and
gallons where they now reckon in
pints and half pints.
A fourth class postmaster will have
no time to read all of the second-class
mail matter which passes through his
paws.
Instead of praying for rain, the
farmers will ask Congress for it.
Buttoned shoes will lace up the
sides.
Cinema shows will be confined to
moving pictures with no pipe organ
recitals or aurora borealis limitations.
When Griffith nabs the Nabiscos it
will be because Connie Mack. Kid
Gleason, Hughey Jennings and the
other battery commanders of the
American League OF Artlllerymeh
have decided that charity doesn't be-
gin at home.
The Key bridge will be cured.
Gasoline will be back to II cents,
where nickel cigars are now.
There will be a clause in the league
of nations eliminating tollgates.
An amusement tax will be slapped
on the practice of eating charlotte
ruSSeS.
And that amt all
Golf players will play their golf
outside of the office.
And outside of office hours.
Janitors will wear overalls, not
white kid gloves.
And two rooms and bath will mean

A LESSON IN GEOGRAPHY
AND AMERICANA SIN.

A gentleman from Uruguay, that
scarcely ever mentioned little repub-
lie in South America, stated to a
friend in the United States that he was
very good American, and gave as his
reasons the following:
He says he starts the day by getting
out of bed made In Wisconsin;
throws back the sheets made in South
Carolina steps on rug made in Phil
adelphia; puts on his slippers from
Massachusetts to take his bath in a
tub from Pittsburg. His stockings
come from Georgia, collars from New
York, underwear from Maryland, sus-
penders from Massachusetts, His
house is kept by Yale lock. He puts
on his Philadelphia hat and rides in his
American automobile to his office,
with a desk from Michigan.
White pine from Mississippi is used
in building his house; he partakes of
salmon from Alaska; canned green
corn from Maine and oysters from
Louisiana; pineapples from Hawaii and
canned fruit from California; or APP
pies from Oregon and Washington at
his meals, and he cuts the apple with
a Massachusetts or Connecticut
knife. The enameled ware in his
kitchen is from Indiana and his ia
bacco comes from North Carolina.

Goats Rout Evil Spirits

Welsh farmers often keep two or
three goats among their fine herds of
cattle. There is tradition that the
presence of goats helps to keep off
evil spirits, and so saves the cattle
from disease. In some parts of Wales
the presence of donkey is believed
10 have the same effect. A more
prosaic reason is that a goat amongst
cattle keeps vermin from breeding ON
their skins.
