The Fox Got Them.

A Goose who was waddling along the Highway in a great hurry was overtaken by a Hare who asked: “What has called you out in such haste to-day?” “I am going to attend a Missionary Meeting 1* was the reply. “I feel it my Solemn Duty to do something for the Heathen Children in London. When she passed on the Hare turned into the Forest and soon discovered a Fox, to whom he said: “Friend Reynard, when a Detroit Woman begins to save the Heathen Children of London what is the Natural Sequence?" “Why, her own children go to the dogs, of course. That is, they will go to the Fox, in case you are kind enough to point out the location.” As the Fox got ’em it does not seem necessary to add a moral. —Detroit Free Press.
