ME TALE OF A 0EA1ER.
A Beaver who travelled upon a railway
When asked for his ticket thus simply
did say :
"I really have losb it—produce it I can't,
And pay once again for a ticket I sha'nt,"
The couductor was wroth at that
Beaver's tale,
Itt veracity he began to assail,
And, glaring upon this tibketiess Beaver,
He said : "I'm afraid you're but a de.
esiver ;
Your ticket give up or the train I will
stop,
And out of it quickly I'll soon make you
hop."
But Beaver, quite beaver -like, stuck to
bis tale,
And before that conductor he would not
quail,
So without more ado the train it was
dapped,

And from it the Bracer most rudely was
dropped.
Now this Beaver was grieved and vexed
to the heart,
For yon know that his tail is his sena.

Yet his tale was rejected, his person as
well,
So his bosom did heave, and with rage it
did swell,
And a suit he did bring against the rail.

way,
And damages heavy he claimed to as.

Elie grief-stricken feelings and soothe his
great rage.
The courts, when they heard of his pith
ful tale,
Thought the Beaver abueed and his suit
' should prevaSl ;
And to the defendants diel solemnly say :
"When a Beaver his ticket doth lose on
the way,
His tale you can't treat with au= die.
respect,
Nor on his veracity rudely reflect.
For bouncing this Beaver out on the
road
In damages heavy you'll have to unload,
And we'll have you to know that it is not
true
That a Beaver must keep his ticket on
view
For inspectf0n by any an= duffers as
you.
When once itis paid for that quite ends
the matter ;
If yon kith him out and his body you
batter
Beoanee to your view he du:liuos to dis-

World's Fair,
The citrons features of the Fair, as they
are called, are proving great as
oarde, and attractions of all kinds, evolv-
ing for the most part from the fertile
brain of Fraol Millet, are crowding each
other oloee these days. Mr. Millet,
Whose writings and eketohee have made
his name a household word with maga-
zine readers, bee been director of color
since the inception of the Fair, and to
him tine beautlfal buildings owe numb of
their attractiveness inside and oub. His
duties in the line of coustruetion being

oessioue, illuminatioes, etc., wide!' have

was covered in the early clays have been
abandoned an Mr. Mf11et has dipped his
brushes iu Otte brightest vermillion with
which fitly to illuminate the olosing
scenes.
The quoeti011 has frequently been ask•
ed, "Will the Fair pay ?" Tam best
answer to that is that the tnanagement
has decided to pay off all the bonds in
full, with accrued interest. With a con•

The diepoeal of the beildinge after the

discussed a good deal. The latest sug-
gestion, and a startling one it ie, is to

wooled varieties. They are a good mut-
ton sheep, the lambs weighing heavy at
an early age. The ewes tape good care
of their lambs which average an increase
of one and 0.11011, and they are good
shearers. Two prizes in the Lincoln
olass went to American breeders, the re.
minder, amounting to 51,105, going to
Gibson ca Walker, of Ildertou ; Mr.
Oliver, of Avonbank, and D. A. Cantp'
bell, of Mayfair.
Cotswolds are apparently more in
favor with American breeders than Lei -
oaten or Lincolns, judging from the
fact that no leve than four Amerbaans
entered the list against the two Ontario
men, R. Miller, of Brougham, and .7. S.
Snell et Bros., of Edmonton. The Cots
are easily picked out by the vartest nov-
ice
on.ice on account of the huge woolly topnote
that hang over their eyes. Tbey are of
large size, good breeders and shear well
and owing to their being bred so long in
the highlands of England are especially
suited to country similarly situated on
this side of the waters. In all $085 iu
prize money was taken by Messrs, Miller
and Snell, and, as was the case with the
shorthorn cattle, many of the other prize-
winners were 0,2001io bred, but uow in
American bands, thus establishing most
conclusively that our province is the
breeding gronud for fine sleep as well as
cattle.
The classes in which Ontario breeders
are represented that remain to be judged
ere Dorset Horns, Southdowns, Sbrop-
shires, Oxfords and Ilampshiroe, and to
our credit be it said that there is not a

done the Fair very thoroughly the past

paid a very high compliment to Canada,

had astonished him, he said, and re.

the opinion that it was one of the most

at all approached his idea of what an
