Scotch Cow Evidently
Had Fondness for Fish
The real heroine of this adventure
was a caw. a he angler could cast a
fly and had caught truut In the south
of England, but had never so much
ns seen a salmon river. Great was
Tils Joy therefore, when one day lie
received an invitation to llsli one ol'
the most famous spring salmon rivers
In the north of Scotland, says the
Field. In the very l\rst cast that ho
tried he hooked and landed his first
salmon?a ten-pounder.
The lirst salmon is always the most
perfect and beautiful that ever was
Been ahd the angler reflected that If
be carried his fish in the hag all day
it would dry and lose its lovely sheen.
On the top of the brne there was a
marshy nook that would answer his
purpose admirably. He deposited his
treasure in this nest and, having cov
ered it with a thick layer of rushes,
went on his way.
The rest of the day he caught noth
ing except a half-pound trout. Still
he was very happy and content as he
turned homeward and whistled mer
rily as he approached the marshy
nook. Hut there he found a highland
cow in the act of consuming his
salmon, of which little remained ex
cept the bend and the tail. In his
nnger he Hung the trout savagely at
the cow, hitting her full in the face;
but, so f:ir from taking offense, she
Beemed rather to think that lie had
brought her a bonne botiche where
with lo complete the feast, for. after
gazing at him for a moment with the
innocent, confiding eyes of lier kind,
she contentedly swallowed the trout.

IN MEMORY OF C. E. PARKER
Last August was a year ago
A time I'll ne'er lorgec
Black Death came into our midst,
And sorrow then w? met.
He was the best of fathers,
Just an honest upright man
Hand in hand with Jesus
In the betterment of our land.
It seems that now I see
Iiis smiling face again
But nevermore will he
Be tortured by cruel pain.
In visions I can hear
His kind aHd loving voice
Begging lis his children
To make the right of choice.
There was an angel baud in
Heaven,
That wasn't quite complete
So God took our precious father
To fill the vacant seat.
The vacant place, the empty
chair
We fee them day by day
And oh, it fills our hearts with
care
Since our loved one went away.
May his soul rest iu peaec,
A. L. F.
