Slowly the morning had passed into 

 afternoon ; then the afternoon had also 

 evaporated ; and now, as the poet said, 

 "the shades of night were falling fast." 

 But still the angler went on angling. 



"Caught any fish, guv'nor?" asked a 

 cheery and cheeky lad, as he paused be- 

 side the weary wielder of the rod. 



The latter deigned no answer. 



"Any luck, sir?" asked the boy per- 

 sistently, as he loitered near. 



"Go away!" snorted the fisherman 

 angrily. 



"No offense, sir," replied the lad, as 

 he sauntered on. "I only wanted to say 

 as my father kept the best fish shop in 

 the village — down the second turning or 

 the risht from the church." 



Gets rather cold at times in Minne- 

 apolis, but you can't cool the ardor of a 

 fish fancier. When Mr. Peri-Cook builds 

 a city at the North Pole, the first local 

 organization will be an aquarium society. 



John Pigg, of St. Louis, is about to be 

 matched against the champion pancake 

 eater of the country, and perhaps you 

 will notice that there is a reason why we 

 are willing to put all our money on John.
