Bright and Broad.
Farmer treeti had a joWe of oxen
called Bright and Broad. They
were h"(fe, slow -moving Hlowi, as
different ftnm Johnnie ti rent's pony,
T inklrhff U. a anv fair could be.
"We cast dny it they ahantai
They never frisked about in the pas
ture. They neer ran, nor jumped,
nor kicked. They seldom ever
trotted. And, when they did move
faster than a walk, they lurched into
a queer, shambling swing.
'J he firit time Twinklehecl saw
them traveling at that gait, lie
couldn't help giggling.
. "They look as if their legs were
going to knock down all the fence
pots on the farm." he exclaimed.
Despite their clumsiness, Bright
and Broad did many a day's hard
work in an honest fashion for Farm
er Green. Of course he never drove
them to the village when he was in
a hurry. But, whenever there was
a heavy load to pull, he depended on
Bright and Broad to help him. If
the pair of bays couldn't haul a
wagon out of a mud hole. Farmer
Green would call on Bright and
Broad. And when they lunged for
ward against their yoke, the wagon
just had to move or something
broke. '
Though Twinkleheels admired
their strength, he didn't care much
for Bright and Broad's company.
They were too sober to suit him.
They were more than likely to stand
and chew their cuds, and look out
upon the world with vacant stares
and say nothing.
"I used to think Ebenczer was a
slow old horse," Twinkleheels re
marked to the bays on a winter's
day, as they stood in the barn. "I
thought I could beat him easily until
he showed me that I was mistaken.
But I can certainly beat Bright and
Broad. They're the slowest pair I
ever saw."
The bays glanced at each other.
"You can't always tell by i per
son's looks what he can do," one
of them remarked. "Let Bright and
Broad choose the race course, and
they'd leave you behind."
"Nonsense 1" Twinkleheels cried.
"They couldn't beat anybody unless
it's Timothy Turtle, who lives over
in Black Creek." .
The bays winked at each other
over the low partition tht rfrate4
their u!li.
"Mavbe you'U fnd out that ou"re
w-rniig,". hey told 'I winkleheet.
"Maybe you'll learn that Bright n4
Broad are fater than joti think they
are, V'e known Ytmtr tireen to
lake them a4 leave us here in the
bant whm he was in hurry to go
somewhere too.
"Hit In!" Twinkleheels laughed.
"You're joking. You're trying to
foo me,"
Oh, nof the bays cried, Ak
Bright and Bread thrmevf."
,V Twinkleheels spoke to Bright
and Broad the very net day when
he me? them in the barnyard. While
he told them what the bays had
Mid to him, they chewed their cuds
ind littened i'n a dreamy look in
their great mild eyes.
Twinkleheels paused and wailed
for them to speak. But they said
nothing.' Their jawi moved steadily
as they chewed; but they said never
a word.
"tin t you answer when you re
spoken to?" Twinkleheels cried it
last.
"Ye" they said, speaking as one
for they alwavs did everything to
gether. "Yes! But you haven't
aked us a question."
"1 this true what the bays told
me ahout you?" lie snapped.
"We can't deny it." they chanted.
Twinkleheels was never mere
surprised.
Tomorrow: A Great Snow Storm.
There was no school that day.
(Cpntht isis hr Metropolitan '
A Silly Song
By A. CUCKOO BIRD. '
The ground hog is an ancient
myth in which I once believed. But,
by that bobtailed false alarm no
more I'll be deceived. In days of
old, when shone the .sun and he his
shadow saw, I ordered 10 more tons
of coal, my kitchen stove to thaw.
But when the sky was overcast, and
he stayed out all day, I'd -aily
throw mv overcoat and old felt boots
away. I'd resurrect my old straw
hat. and don my B. V. D.s, and
stick it out for six Ion? weeks and
let my carcass freeze. I d spend the
merry month of March inhaling
noxious pills, and toil through. April,
May and June to pay my doctor
bills. He'll never fool me any
more. Too often I've been froze, by
trusting in his judgment and shed
ding all by clothes. Ill bet. when
he's stayed out all day, he hikes for
home in glee, and chuckles to him
self and says, hat fools these
mortals be.
Man Accused of $12,500 ,

the Omaha Ice and Cold Storage

ment of $12,500 from that firm, was

GENERAL sanitary regulations in
producing Evaporated Milk are
established by law. In addition to the
observance of these we establish our
own specific and rigid inspection to
make our milk absolutely pure and of
fine quality. No single batch of Borden's
Evaporated Milk is allowed to leave the
condensary until it has passed a final
' laboratory test. '. ''
Though this elaborate inspection may
make it cost more to the grocer he sells
Borden's at the price of other standard
brands. For he relies on it to please
. his most particular customers.
Borden's Evaporated Milk is pure
country milk with the cream left in. It
is fine for both coffee and cooking.
