A POULTRY JOKE.
An Irishman had a goose was taking home for his Chrisflfaas dinner. On the way he went into a shop to examine some articles, and he laid the goose on the counter, where he thought it would be safe. Immediately he had laid it down, a shabbylooking individual made off with it. Pat gave chase, and was successful in capturing the thief.
"Why did you take my goose?" said Pat, indignantly.
The thief replied, "I only took it for a lark, sir."
"Bedad, it's a bad judge you'd make at a poultry show," retorted the Irishman.
