Show AAKy" GRAHAA BONNER. BAD GOATS "You're such a terror," said Mr. Angora Goat,, to Mrs. Angora Goat .when she had just said "Bad 'Day" Instead of "Good-day." "So are you my dear," she said. "I ngree with you," he said, "but 1 won't agree with many creatures. "That Is, I will agree ith you at ; times." i "I agree with you at times too," said Mrs. Angora Goat. ! "I know," said Mr. Angora, "but It j Is not because of your sweet disposl-I disposl-I tlon." "Why should I waste time by having i such a thing? One cannot enjoy it." "Others can, perhaps," said Mr. An j gora Goat. "But that is not my affair. "I know the keeper says we're a bad pair." I "Yes," agreed Mrs. Angora, "I've heard hiin say so. He said we were beautiful but bad!" "That's absurd," said Mr. Angora GonL "The very Idea of being good ! when we are beautiful. That is quite I enough." "1 think so," said Mrs. Angora Goat, "but many creatures don'L" "I've heard the keeper say that we j were the worst pair of angora goats ! he had ever known," said Mr. Angora An-gora Goat. "Good." said Mrs. Angora Goat, shaking her horns. "No, bad," said Mr. Angora. "I mean good that we are bad." "I Mean Good That We Are Bad." said Mrs. Angora, shaking her horns again. I Mr. Angora watched her ns she did this. "Your horns aren't nearly so large as mine. Mine ure more handsome, too." "Absurd." said Mrs. Angora. "Why do you say that?" "Oil. because I don't want to agree with you even If you are ri'bt. "I Just don'l feel like agreeing with you any more." "Well." said Mr. Angora Goat, "that Is all right. I don't want to agree with you." "I've heard." said Mrs. Angora Goat, lifter it liniment, "thai even though you may brag of your handsome horns which nre considered, and which really nre, n bit bigger than mine, that vou nre considered far worse than 1 am. "Yes. I've heard that you were twice ns bad ns 1 am, t w ice !" "That's good." said Mr. Angora Goat, "for If I am going 'o be a bad follow 1 will be n thoroughly hud one. "I'm glad I succeed." So the Iwo nngora goats gave the keeper n lol of trouble for tliey were the naughtiest pair be had ever known, bin Ihey were pleased about It nil. They thought It was very jood to be very had ! Thai was the way they thought about I;, nnd Ihey lived ur to their thoughts. The keeper could bnve told you that. |
