Visionary Music.
It was back in a remote Western township, and the first gramophone seen in the district had I just come to hand. The proud 1 owner was relating its merits to an admiring audience when someone noticed old Dan driving in from his farm. “Fetch him in.” said the gramophone proprietor, and give him a treat. So the old chap was hustled in and deposited in the most comfortable chair, wearing a puzzled but pleased expression. .A record was put on and no sooner had the machine started when up jumped Did Dan and made for the door. “ Wait a * minute, boys,” says he; “I ken hear a blamed band coming along -and I ain’t got my horses hitched up.”
