Off for the Circui.
tlnat firm posters had covered
cnc Mttlc of Farmer Green's burn for
wrek. 1-ver since men cme and
parted them on the barn Johnnie
i!rcen had studied them rre(ully.
He had practiced bareback riiiing on
hi ponv. Winkleheels. He had tried

Spot inquired.
the lop of the dam. And much to
old dog Spot's disgust Johnnie had
tried to make him jump through a
hoop covered with paper.
- Spot had refused flatly to do any
thing of the kind. If he had known
that his young master had half a no
tion to teach him to jump Ihrougli
a hoop of fire J'pot would have run
away at least ur.til circus time had
come and gene.
t "What puts t!l t'..w Cjjcer ideas
into Johnnie's head?" the old dog
asked his friend Ebcnezcr, the horse.
pe day.
"Don't vou know?" said Ebc
nezcr. "It's thor.e circus nicturcs.
Johnnie won't think of anything else
until the twenty-third of Atigrst."
? "What's goir.g to happen then?"
Spot inquired.
."That's 'he day when the circus
opmes to t'ne village," the old horse
explained. "The whole family's go
ing to see it."
;"Do you expect to take them?"
Spot asked him. '
i"Xo!" Eber.ezer replied. "Farmer
Green will hitch the bays to the
carryall. And to tell the truth. I'll
he jiist as pleased to stay behind. It
will be a great cay to take naps here
t home."
H "It will be a lonesome day. with
everybody away," said Spot. "I be
lieve I'll go to the circus myself."
"Farmer Grfen may decide to
leave you here," the old horse sug
gested. 1
"Then I II surprise him. said
not "T'11 ti..io hchiiifl a tr-p until
l'nrmir flrrn has rlrivn out of the
trrd. and then I'll follow the carry-
slL"
4 The 6ld dog began to tell every
body in the. farmyard that he was
going to the circus on August 23.
Of course . some-of the farmyard
fi'lk were jealous of him. The rooster
rr-H-ked that he didn't believe Spot
wt!d hear any crowing at the circus
tf at would be worth listening to.
Turkey Proudfoot said that when it
eimc to strutting the circus couldn't
(thow. Spot any that couldn't be
beaten right there on the farm. And
Henrietta Hen, who went to the
riiiinty fair the year before, declared
that she shouldn't care to go to the
Village except to sec a poultry show.
Bur old dog Spot didn't mind any
thing they said. And when August
35 came he lingered about the farm
vard. Eirly in the morning he saw
Farmer Green run the carryall into
the yard and harness the bays to it.
Then, the rest of the family ; came
out of the house. Spot, from his hid
ing place behind a tree, was pleased
to see that Johnnie Green did not
forget to bring a big lunch basket
with him. , ' -
' - At last everybody was ready to
start. , And then; to Spot's dismay
Farmer Green caught sight of his
nose, sticking out from behind a tree.
VThat- dog means to follow us,"
he cried, "i'll have to shut him up
in the, barn." And to old Spot he
called. "Come here, sir!"
. nnt rflrtn'S rtar HisnhrW With
his tail between his legs he crept up
to- the carryall. And, though, he
whined and begged to be taken to
the circus.., Farmer Green caught
hold of hi collar and led him into
:he barn. Then Farmer Green closed
the door . '
- Poor Spot had to give one loud
howl when he heard the wheels of
the carryall crunching on the gravel
driveway.

THE CROOKS' GOLCONDA
Forgery ha been flourishing in Sing Sing penitentiary.
In the dayi when the picking were eay,
And everyone carried a roll.
The tyro in crime had a jolly good time
On half of the money he Mole.
Both burglar and pickpocket prospered,
Defaulters had money to loan,
The dunnicst dips carried quarts on their hips
And had can and chauffeurs of their own,
Hut time have been drastie'lly altered,
As the business statistics reveal:
The fat profiteers of those wonderful yean
Haven't got a dinero to steal.
And the crooks having learned, a we all do,
That rkhes arc prone to take wing,
Kind their trade fan't be plied with a profit outside,
And so they are working Sing Sing.
Surrounded by innocent convict.
And wardens devoid of all guile,
They learn that the time that' devoted to crime
Is well worth a criminal's while.
The Hate has abundance of shekels,
The inmates have savings to spare,
It's a safe pleasant nook for a good clever crook,
And a fortune is waiting him there.
With check-raising, forging, and so forth
The days are delightfully passed,
Xo "Dicks" lurk about, hunting wrong-doers out,
And dragging them jailward at last.
The thief, as he rakes in the dollars,
lias only one thought to dismay;
If in breaking the law he's a little too raw,
The Warden may send him awayl
