More Truth Than Poetry
By JAMES J. MONTAGUE
APUrirt.sr,
Tb SuNfidott BtM Dean Made
for Fishing Trip.
With warningi Irom both Dicky
and Lillian filed away in my mrnUl
reference library, I coold not help
v atching But Dean furtively hn
two dayi after her unfortunate trip
down Rip Van Winkle's mountain,
he wm In evidence again in our
mountain family circle. Ai we might
I'avc gutntd from our knowledge
J her vanity, the did not join u
mtil the wai able to walk without
k limp, and there hid disappeared all
trace of the unfortunate con.e.
iuencei of her Insisting upon wear
ing my sneakers, two aizea too
mall lor her.
But if the cherished any resent
ment against me, as Dicky and Lil
lian hid predicted, and wat plan
ii ing any "comeback" for the humil
iation 1 unwittingly had been the
meant of giving her, she showed no
sign of it when the joined us at
brcatfast after . her two days' ab
sence. She was as gay, as charm
ingly insouciant as ever, and when
wo all had dutifully inquired after
the wrenched back which wc all
knew was camouflage for her
swollen feet, and had been answered
with the assurance that all discom
fort had disappeared, we joined her
tunate trip to the tomb of forgotten
things.
"That Settles It!"
"The bullhead are biting. Pa,"
Fred put his head in at the dining
room door. lie had breakiaated
tk. Mii v aid an A rirAriti tin
the road. Next to his father, Fred
is the most ardent devotee of old
Izaak Walton I ever have seen, and
his face mirrored his enthusiasm.
"Who says so?" Ta Cosgrove
turned in his chair at the head of
the table, his deep set eyes sparkling
at the lure.
"Sam Patch. lie caught ninety
last night, he said, just as fast as he
could pull 'era out of the water.
"Where?" .
"Lower dam." . ,
"That settles it I'm going lo
iightl How about it, mother?
He looked over at his wife with
half-ludicrous, half-shamefaced plead
ing. I long ago had observed that
bustling, thrifty Mrs. Cosgrove kept
rather a tight rein upon her easy
soing, good-natured, but somewhat
indolent spouse, and did not look
with any too great favor upon his
frequent-fishing and. hunting excur
sions. Indeed. his fondness - for
rambling with , fish-pole or gun
through his beloved Catskill forests,
had, in our first caquaintance .with
him, caused Dicky to dub him Rip
Van Winkle, although, the big jolly
man has none of the unpleasant char
acteristics of Irving's hero.
, "When my wood-boxes are filled,
and. my chickens caught, killed and
cleaned for 'tomorrow's dinner, I j
have no objection to you making 1
1.- nit. of an alWhrea idiot oi your
self." Mrs. Cosgrove replied pleas
antlv enouah. thousrh there was a
Mtspicion of acerbity in her tone.
"But I guess I'd better get the lini
ment and the rheumatism medicine
ready for tomorrow. I suppose
you'll stay aU night." ; ' .
The big man flushed a triflle un
der his -tan. v ;" : : " :t- ,'
Madge1 Agrees. ,
"Now, mother," he said, "be good,
I haven't been fishing in a coon's
age. And I'll see to everything be
fore I go, and bring, you back a
fine mess of bullheads for tomorrow
morning's breakfast. Did you ever
tat bullheads, folks?" He turned
to the rest of us, patiently trying to
escape from conjugal criticism.
"If I have I've forgotten it,"
Dicky said. ."But I'll try. anything
once."' - ' o';- --. ;;."..'!?:
. "If you had. you'd never have for
gotten it." Mr. Cosgrove declared
didactically. "They're the sweetest
eating of any pan-fish in the world.
Of course your real fancy anglers
look down on fishing for 'env-they
want the trout or everi the pickerel.
But it's past the season for trout, and
the pickerel don't bite at night, the
time I like to go fishing. And there
hasn't been a pickerel caught this
vcar anyway. But your trout sharks
don't know the fun there is in sitting
on a great rock down there by the
big dam, with your pipe making the
only light you have besides the Ian
tern you shut off most of the time,
and hauling in those bullheads one
after the other. The big ones give
vou nunc a nine nxiiu wu.
"Why,' Pa Cosgrove 1" Bess Dean
put in gaily. "You're positively poet
ical I I say, folks, what's the matter
with all of us going fishing for bull
heads tonight?"
"You'll have to stay all night," Pa
Cosgrove warned. "That is, of
course, unless somebody came down
in a car after you.. I'll tell you,"
warming to his subject. ' "If sotne
body'll take me down in the car, I
;an go to the lower dam, about nine
miles down. I have to walk. I only
can get to the upper dam."
Bess Dean clasped her hands to
gether theatrically and flashed an im
ploring glance at ucy. ,
"Can you resist such a chance to
be a wholesale benefactor, kind gen
tleman?" she implored. "Oh, do say
you'll take us down to the lower darn
tonight!"-! ;
"That's as the boss decides,"
Dicky waved a careless hand in my
direction. "I'm only the man-of-alU
work. WTiatever she says goes."
"Oh. I'd love to go." I said quick
ly, and knew by the glint in Bess
Dean's eyes that Dicky's speech was
another point in her score against
me. .
A LONG-NEEDED REPORM
So longer he fair and beribboned co-ed
Or the lovely young visiting dame,
Uy the fretliie or junior or soph ran be led
To her seat at the critical game.
So longer hrr voice she ran joyfully raUe
lu the lilting and rollicking song. ,
Or fix the great stars with her glorious" gae
From the scats where the undergrads throng.
Tor even the love of the bully old col
Will slip from an undergrad l mind.
When he sits by the side of a beautiful doll
I'nlrst he should haply be blind.
He often forgets to get up on his toes
And join in the general cheer,
If a damsel In pink with a face like a roue
Is sitting a trifle too near.
The cheer-leader moan that a stand full of Janes
So affects the young fellows around,
That in spite of the rushes and twenty-yard gains
They seldom will utter a sound.
A fellow intent on the bright shining lamps,
Filled with light as effulgent as dawn.
Which gleam from the fares of charming young vamps
Forgets there's a game going on.
And t in the. future if ladies appear
On occasions when games may be tight.
They shall not be permitted to put on the cheer
A heavy and dangerous blight.
Of course they won't bar from all seats in the bowl
The radiant wonderful elves,
But the squads with the lungs will be kept in control
For the girls will be parked by themselves.

'How can Obregqn expect us to recognize Mexico? It doesn't look

Accidental Rhymes.
' If in talking you accidentally make
a rhyme, wish before you say another
word and you will get your wish.
This is a common superstition, gen
erally half laughingly indulged in.
Frequently some one tauding by,
noticing the involuntary rhyme, will
say: "That's a rhyme; take it in
time."
Down in Alabama they have a
variation of this superstition which
is that instead of wishing you kiss
your hand before speaking and you
will see your sweetheart before night.
The superstition originates trom
the fact that old-time word charms
were generally , in verse, blank or
rhymed. .j Fragments , of metrical
charms and incantations have come
down to us from remote ages and
from many races. The word "charm"
itself we get from the Latin word
"carmen," meaning both a song and
a charm. Clodd says "As gods of
healing both Apollo and Aesculapius
were surnamed Praeaa after the
physician to the Olympian deities,
and the songs which celebrated the
healing power of Apollo were also
called by that name." ; t
In Greece and Scandinavia magic
formulae wercuttexed in verse. Read
Scott's "Pirate" for a disquisition on
the persistence of rhymed impromptu
incantations among the descendants
of the Norsemen down into recent
times. From this northern source
we probably inherit our idea that an
ifpromptu, accidental - rhyme is a
"charm" and, therefore, of potency
in the fulfillment of wishes.
