there's nothing that tastes
better. But you wouldn't like
it raw.
IT'S TOASTED

But An Old Goat
Spoiled It All
(Copyright, McClure Newspaper Syndicate./
By M. QUAD.
It wns a pleasant Sunday afternoon.
Mrs. Bowser had laid down to pet a
aup, the cook laid pone on a visit a)
lier mother, and the cat was on the
il ley fence taking a sun hath and half
isleep. Mr. Bowser lighted his cigar,
arranged liis necktie and took ids cane
for a walk. He had had a good night'«
sleep the night before. He had had
i good breakfast. He had read the pa
pers. The day was so beautiful that
tie felt to forgive all enemies and find
ao fault with anything in nature or
mankind.
Up tlie street half a block, ns Mr.
Bowser sauntered along, lie found a
■ope stretched across the sidewalk and
.neli end held by a child. There
had been rope skipping, but they had
stopped at play to have a little sport
with Mr. Bowser. Instead of order
ing them to drop the rope, he took
to

to the gutter around It, and at the
same time sweetly smiled and said:
"Skipping the rope, are you? Well,
that will bring roses to your cheeks,
and you will grow up to be handsome
girls. No one should complain of
you. Here is a dime to buy candy
for all of you."
Just at the corner were two tramps
leaning up against a fence. They
saw Mr. Bowser coming, and saw
that he was contented and benign.
This led them to the conclusion that
things were all wrqpg in this world,
and that he ought to be made to
share his money with them. They
did not strike him for anything as he
passed, hut one of them called him an
old robber. Mr. Bowser heard it, and
turned about and said:
'Boys, you shouldn't feel that way
on such a beautiful day as this Is.
'»»hat money I have, and it Is not a
<preat deal, I have made fairly and
honestly. I have not robbed nor op
pressed any man, and I certainly
should be glad to see you earning $10
a day. Here is a quarter for each of
you, and you can do what you like
with It."
The men's attitude changed at once,
and they lifted their old hats to him
and begged he would not have any
hard feelings on account of their mis
take.
Mr. Bowser met the plumber. They
had not been good friends for the last
six months, owing to the fact that the
plumber had been called to mend a
"They Lifted Their Hats to Him."
pin-hole leak in a water pipe and
had charged $2.50 for about 30 cents'
worth of work. Mr. Bowser had re
fused to pay the bill, and the plumber
had threatened a law suit. The plumb
er turned aside when he saw that a
meeting was about to occur, but Mr.
Bowser walked up and slapped him on
the back and said:
"Plumber, perhaps I was too short

with you about that bill. I happen !
to have the amount of it in my |
pocket ami you must take It. I do net j
think I understand the true cost of
plumbing as well as you do. I always j
«uni to do tin- fair thing."
•'.Mr. Bowser, you are a fair and j
I,. :.e-t ! in." replied the plumber, as j
lie took the money. "By Go« rge. but ;
it dees my heart good to meet up j
with such a man !"
The smile on Mr. Bow ser's face j
broadened as he walked on. Here was j
another ease where he had made a.
person believe that life was worth the |
living, and his heart swelled as he I
thought of it. He was so benign that ;
the motonnan on a passing trolley |
car looked at him and wished he had j
time to stop his car and borrow a dob j
lar. Presently a boy came along with
a robin In an old cage. Mr. Bowser j
smiled at the boy and at the robin
and asked of the boy:
"My son, what are you doing with
that bird?"
"I am taking it home," replied the
boy. "1 bought him of a boy for 15
cents."
••Oh, hut it is wrong to Imprison a
bird like that. He has got a mate
who is looking for him. and, perhaps,
young robins, who are pining for his
care."
"But you won't take him away
from me, will you?" appealed the lad
as he got ready to run away.
"Xo, my son, I won't, hut I will
buy him of you and give him his
freedom, and next year, if he comes
hack, he may light on my window
!
1
j
a
re
a
Mr.
on
sill and sing his thanks to me. I will
give you half a dollar for the bird."
"You can have him in a holy min
ute," exclaimed the boy. And ns soon
as the coin was passed over he eel
the cage down at Mr. Bowser's feel
and went away shouting with glee a
he went.
The cage was lifted up, the robin
taken out and given a toss into the
air, and as it flew away Mr. Bowsei
almost had tears in his eyes. He had
done another good deed. Three cr foui
people had gathered around him and
they saw the bird go and expressed
their astonishment Mr. Bowser smilec
at them and exclaimed:
"Mankind has a right to freedom
and why shouldn't our birds have the
same right? And any of you cau have
this cage who wants It."
Down a cross street, two blocks lr
advance of Mr. Bowser, some bad
boys who had never been talked tc.
by a benign man, were encouraging a
fight between a dog and a goat.
Neither animal cared to fight. They
were also somewhat benign. They
sniffed at each other and bluffed a
little, hut each hoped to got out of
the situation without a conflict. The
hoys persisted, however, and finally
the dog was encouraged to go in for
a shindy. He sprang forward and
gave the goat a bite, and the goat's
courage was not equal to the occa
sion. He turned and ran. It was just
what the dog was hoping for, and he
made a vigorous pursuit. Facing the
rear end of the goat Is a far differ
ent thing from facing his horns.
It was a pretty even race to the
corner, and the goat arrived there just
as Mr. Bowser did. There was a col
lision and Mr. Bowser went into the
gutter with cane and hat and the be
nign smile scattered all around. The
dog stopped, and, after a moment, the
goat put on speed and soon vanished
from view.
And what did the benign Mr. Bow
ser do when he picked himself out
of the dust? He looked around for
somebody to hold him to blame for
the calamity. He found three or four
men and shook his fist under their
noses, and he swore by the beard of
his father to lick the whole town.
The benign smile had faded forever.
Mr. Bowser went home. His haf
was broken and his cane was splin
tered, and there was dust all over him.
He found Mrs. Bowser up and ready to
ask him questions, but, instead of re
plying. he went upstairs and was seçn
no more until the evening meal was
ready. During garret retirement h«
did some thinking, and the thinking
was expressed to himself on the way
downstairs :
"By thunder, but being a benign and
happy man don't pay five cents on »
dollar, and I am going to quit It!"
