Little Elizabeth and her mother were having luncheon together, and the mother, who always tried to impress facts upon her young daughter, said:
"These little sardines, Elizabeth, are sometimes eaten by the larger fish."
Elizabeth gazed at the sardines in wonder, and then asked:
"But, mother, how do the large fish get the cans open?"
FISHERMEN
At the birth of President Cleveland's second child no scales could be found to weigh the baby. Finally the scales that the President always used to weigh the fish he caught on his trips were brought up from the cellar, and the child was found to weigh twenty-five pounds.
"Doin' any good?" asked the curious individual on the bridge.
"Any good?" answered the fisherman, in the creek below. "Why I caught forty bass out o' here yesterday."
