Milner, were killed by the “Nancy

The old people were returning from
oburch, walking arm in arm along the
railroad track.
Then they held a council, with the re
sult that two old crows flew to the top of
a rail fence a few feet from the burrow
as sentinels, while the others flew some
distance away.
Ten minutes elapsed and then the
groundhog reappeared. Instantly the
sentinels cawed the signal, and the main
army came flying, but the animal was
too quick and dodged into hist home.
The exasperated crows immediately fell
to work, and in the course of 15 minutes
plugged up the hole with dirt and stones.
Then they indulged in a chorus of exulta
tion and were having a joyous time
when one old crow gave a terrible caw
of rage.
He had discovered the groundhog sit
ting on a knoll 50 feet away, having
emerged from the other end of his bur
row.
Then there was another council of
war, and the farmer expected to see an
other attack, hut it soon became evi
dent that the crows were disheartened,
and after awhile they arose as one bird,
and- with a few faint hearted caws flew
to the woods and disappeared, thus ac
knowledging that the groundhog was
smarter than they.—Golden Days.

She was seated before a long mirror in
one of the largest millinery establishments
in Chicago. Two dainty creations of lace,
straw and flowers were balanced on her fin
ger tips. She was gravely comparing their
merits, while the saleswoman stood by,
smiling. And so her dearest friend caught
sight of her.
“Why, Dora, you here? Come, help me
to decide. How much did you say this one
was?”
“Only $39.42; awfully cheap,” cooed the
saleswoman.
“I’ll try it on.”
The young lady turned to the glass. Her
friend watched her with envious eyes. How
did Flora ever get so much money?
“Lovely!” cried the saleswoman as she
turned from the mirror.
“Which do you prefer, Dora?”
“They are both lovely,” said Dora in a
faint nothing-to-eat-since-morning voice.
“And quite reasonable, too.” went on
