GOUDEAU’S SH^EP.
.nd
It Matchad Hia Dog arid Satisfied tha
' Taa Collector.
Einile UoiKleau, a celebrated
character-of Paris, was one of the
most continued boliemiunsGiint ever
Uvea. * ^
There is a story of him and a cer-
tain black auuuiel which followed
him with the faithfulness with
which the historic little lamb at-
tached itself to the historic little
Jlury. Goudeau and the dog, in
fact, wore never separated.
It duwncd upon the tax gatherer
oCthc neighborhood that Goudeau
had not paid his dues for the “infe-
rior brother.--*.
— Hg-«pprowched -him; therefore, iu
as friendly a spirit as possible, be^-
4ng,- indeed,- an old acquaintance,
and said, “M. Goudeau, I piust ask
you to p^y your tax for the span-
iel.”
The bohemian was immensely
surprised^ or affected to be. “BiltT
don’t you know, my dear sir,” he
said in a tone of remonstrance,
“this is a sheep dog, useful to me in
my work and consequently exempt
from the tjix?”
“But you are no shepherd/' re-
turned the tax gatherer; “you are
a poet.”
“No shepherd!” replied Goudeau.
“Every poet is a shepherd., Have
you not beard of Vergil and Theoc-
ritus'*— ^
The poet w<pild have recited
twenty other names if the tax gath-
erer, alarmed at such a display of
learning, had not stopped nim.
“But at least you have no sheep,”
he said.
“No; 1 admit that,” said Gotr-
deau. ,fIt is because 1° am too poor.
But I will rectify that.” *
And he did. Next day he was ob-
served promenading the streets of
Montmartre with the same old black
spaniel, but with a newcomer in the
snape of a real, live, woolly sheep.—
London Sketch.
Would Not Sail Hia Ancestors.
A plutocratic Aifterican of the
l^gt century who had seen the green
acres and stately castle of an Irish
estate sought out its impecunious
owner with an'offer to buy. Lord
Blank, eager enough to transmute
his profitless lands into pregnant
gold, hamed, a considerable but
reasonable pride as one he would
be willing to take. “Very well,”
said the American; “I’ll take that if
the pictures go with the' bouse.”
After a little reflection"! iis lordship
answered, “Yes, you con have the
ILpictures, except, of course, the fam-
ily portraits.” “It's the portraits 1
! want,” said the other. “1 wouldn’t
| givNi a cent for the rest of ’em."'
“My property is not for sale unddr
those conditions,” skid his lordship.
11 turning on his heel and walking
'1 away, to the astonishment of the
11 parvenu, who flung a “Stuck up
l! beggar!” after the retreating figure.

“Oh, it’B you, is it ?” murmurs the
wife, meeting her husband at the
reception.
"Yea. Glad to see you," he
smiles. “Had half an idea I’d run
across you here.”
“Isn’t it nice? Oh, there was
something I wanted to ask you
about—I thought of it just "after 1
saw you at the /heater the last
time,” she says. “Tt was something
important, too. But it has entirely
slipped my mind.”
“Well, maybe you’ll think of it
by the next time we meet. I sup-
pose you’ll be at tiie horse show.
Perhaps by then it will have oc-
curred to you again.”—Judge’s Li-
brary. -
