Mrs. ^ec Bowser, what change do you see in 000 that cat since the fall season set in?" "Noue whatever.'" ?oc "Had yon asked me the same ques- an< tlOn yesterday I should have answered a it in the same way. Now I must tell f10 you that I see a dozen changes. * Yon ? will observe that his eyes are brighter and have a more intense color. There 5. chi is a certain elation about him. There is an alertness that strikes you at once. He is no longer morbid or lymphatic. . He is no more the cat he was last Au- 14 gust than day is like night." "Well?" asked Mrs. Bowser. "Well, the same or other changes have taken place in all other animals? in the horse, the ox, the dog, the fowls of the air and of the coop. I hey have taken place in mankind itself. Ever since the world was created there have been changes of seasons, but up to this mi] present moment mankind lias not been ready to admit that all thing3 change | with the seasons. It stands to reason that they do, however." "And. if they do, then what?" wa "Then we have solved one of the hu- tilG man problems. If man changes his na- He ture four times a year, as the seasons be' change, then he has but to discover when he is at his best and his worst to guard against things. Am I the dei same man I was last spring or last summer?" soi: ! "You didn't kick about last month's cer gas bill." "TJien tljpre has been a change in the me. That was the very point I was fishing for. If we can secure a few tlei other instances, we can set it down for that human nature is a greater kicker Y over the small gas bills of summer ent than over the big ones of winter." the "But haven't we got to take human cha nature as we find it. good and bad?" " asked Mrs. Bowser. sea "We have had to. but when we find ? human nature's best and worst seasons y0; we can shape our course accordingly. ?wi Suppose that the spring season is your mean and cantankerous, season. As soon as I discover it I treat you differently from what I otherwise would. Suppose my cantankerous season is ? the summer. You know it and you f don't talk back to me during those 1 Tiiree monuis. is crime more rumpuiu in spring, summer, autumn or winter, and why? Are there more divorces in March than November? Does our conscience upbraid us more in January than July? Why should we give a tramp 20 cents in September and the boot in April?" / It was beyond Mrs. Bowser, and she simply shook her head. "It is changes, my dear, changes. j Last August I seriously thought of y0i; getting a divorce from you for your o extravagance in using up clothespins. \yi Tonight I feel that I could not sever T the bond under any circumstances, not tlia even if yon smashed half the crockery in the house. What has changed me except the change of season? If a X man has criminal desires in the spring. the lie must tight them off until summer. so If the summer makes a man soft and her mellow and an easy mark, he must > have a guardian appointed until S?p- lasi tember comes. I already begin to un- tee: derstaud that my season for being real fou good begins with the first fall month. Trl BOWSER, NATURALIST IS fei ob, Discovers That Most Animals otJ Change With Seasons. mt ~ 8lT IT IS SO WITH MANKIND. *n! ?. of tbf Cost the Philosopher Three Pails of roi Beer to Corroborate His Theory jjei About the Goose?Takes a Mean Ad- wa vantage of Mrs. Bowser. TPp [Copyright, 1906, by C. H. Sutcliffe.] Mr. Bowser had hardly filtered the r? house the other evening as he returned . from the office when he inquired as to the whereabouts of the family cat. Be- j*0( ing informed that Grimalkin was cir- ?! culating around the neighborhood 1 somewhere, he dropped the .matter, ^ and, though Mrs. Bowser directly an questioned him, he made evasive replies. It was not until dinner was over e and they had returned to the sitting w_! room that the cat walked in and took . his accustomed place on the rug. Mr. Bowser at once gave the feline his full CO I attention and kept it up so long that f Mrs. Bbwser petulantly demanded: I "Now. what on earth do you see I ^ about that old cat to interest you? One on would think you were a child and see- jj lng a cat for the first time." agi "I am seeing certain things for the first time nevertheless. I see corrobo Wnen spring runs into summer iuc ?se gets cranky. He drops poetry 1 love and moonlight and won't take word from nobody. He becomes rbid. He reasons that all the world agin him, and it is then that he acts and devours young children, you have a young and innocent. Id, sir, let It beware of the summer ?e." Nonsense! C have heard of a goose islng a person, but as for inflictJ* * You are talking to a man who has >d his life among them, sir. If you re to hand Danny another 10 cents, would get another pail of beer, and would pass on to the fail season." Ir. Bowser hesitated, but finally ided out the money, and. four or five autes later the goose man, refreshed i in good spirits, was saying^ September has hardly come, sien the goose begins to show a disiition to make a ass of hisself. He nts hair renewer for his bald head, ugli he knows that it won't renew. bosses and bulldozes and thinks s a devil of a fellow, and the only y to tame him down"? What are you driving at?" sharply nanded Mr. Bowser as he rose up. Danny," said the goose man to his t, ''the gentleman will hand you 10 its to get a pail of beer." The gentleman will do nothing of t kind!" replied Mr. Bowser. Then the gentleman, as is no gennan, won't get bo more goose inmation here and can go to Texas." Vhen Mr. Bowser reached home he ered very quietly and had reached sitting room and dropped into his Lir when Mrs. Bowser asked: Well, does a goose change with the son?" As you have been one all your life i ought to know," he meanly ansred as he picked up his newspaper I refused to answTer another word. M. QUAD.

The magazine article that I re* red to says that the change is more servable in the goose than in any ler living thing." 'That's queer." 'So It is, but it will not long relin so. There's a man down the eet who keeps geese by the score, d I propose to drop down and have little talk with him. Like the rest humanity, I have always supposed it a goose was a goose the year md, but if it is true that she changes r disposition four times a year I nt to give her all proper credt." I'd let the goose part of it go if I re you," said Mrs. Bowser, feeling uble in the air all of a sudden. But there is the foundation of the lole question, you see. Does the >se change with the seasons? If she is, then why not all other living ngs, man included? If she changes, at are the changes? I'll be back in hour and tell you all about it, and I y think best to sit up the rest of ( night and write an article dealing tli the question." Then Mr. Bowser left the house he ided straight for the goosery. The ? engines crossed his path, but they lid not tempt him aside. There was ree for all fight among a lot of. long>remen, but he refused to halt. A ' mp wanted him to stop and argue the amount of food a man could i on for a week, but he was brushed ue. The goose man was in his goosas it behooved him to be, and :hin five minutes of his arrival Mr. wser had stated his case. Did a >se change with the season? Under ; head of goose lie included gander well. The promptness of the goose n was rather surprising. If you will send for a pail of beer. we'll talk," he said, and his little l soon returned with a two quart 1 frothing over. He took it that Mr. wser was a strictly temperate mau I offered him none of the contents. Do a goose change with the seals?" he repeated after imbibing half * contents of the pail without draw; breath. "I answer you that he sir. We will begin with spring, the spring he is lamblike and would ; hurt a fly. He sits and warbles e songs and makes googoo eyes at mates. He takes long walks in the onligut and can be heard to sigh rods off." You astonish me!" exclaimed Mr. wser. Y^s, sir, and the pail is empty, and soon as more beer arrives we will :e up summer.
