"All is not fish that swims" reflected
the sapient philosopher as he beheld

The. sapient philosopher was formulat-
ing a great truth when he came to
that conclusion.
The whale, for instance, although 1t
1nquestionably swims, is more closely

The seal is closer kin to the dog than
to the fuke.
To a great many fishermen the word
"fsh"-see Latin "piscis" and Dutch
'yisch' (the same word) possesses
only the verb form, eto fish," Catch
ing fish is not necessary part Of the
process Of fishing. The thing is ''to

A FUNNY STORY.

smiled very funny cow smile.
Her big eyes looked at some Of the
other cows and she said:
"Gather around me, Cows, and lis
ten to my funny story"
So very slowly the cows got up and
came over by Mrs. Cow, and listened
to the story she had to tell.
'You know" said Mrs. Cow, 1--WE

milk that we give is given to the city

II don't know that should actually

But we give the milk away, and
then the milk is sold to the city peo-

"Of course we shouldn't expect to
be paid for the milk we give, as we
are given board and lodging (Which is
very apt to be out-of-door lodging)
in return for the milk we give.
II am not complaining when I speak
of the out-of-door lodging, for we usu-
ally like that kind best.
"And we are given excellent board
and lovely meadow for our home.
"NoW, there are a number of us on
different big farms who give this milk
In return for board and lodging. Then
the milk is sent to the city and the
city people have it left in bottles by
their doors in the morning.
"But the joke is that the milk COM
pany which sells our milk to the city
people, tells all the city. peo-
pie that they are keeping tab of,
or looking after, 10000 COWS.
"That in itself isn't the joke. A
joke should always come at the end
Of a funny story, or else it isn't a
very funny story.
mo one wants their jokes in the
middle Of story, or I've never heard
OF anyone who did.
But am coming to the end of my
story, and I am coming to the joke.

that a joke on them? They like to
