Jacob's history is of the most ro mantic nature. He was purchased shortly before last Thanksgiving to grace the table of iMrs. T. E. Bruton. When Vincent Mess, Mrs. Bruton's grandson, was sent into the yard to kill Jacob, the goose - walked u to the lad and started talking In goose language. The 'boy returned to the house to tell his grandmother of the peculiar conduct of the ' goose, and discovered that Jacob had followed h.m. It was decided not to kill Jacob, and a turkey was substituted to do the gastronomic honors. - From that time Jacob and Vincent became tomutone buddies, and the goose would follow the boy wherever bo went.

Mutor - ve hicle, exclusive of motorcycle, cann ed 10,168 death In 1921 In tbe death registration of the United States, com- J prising tbirty-fonr States, tbe De- partment of Commerce announced to- rtv day. .This was an Increase of 1.065 deaths over 1920. Returns compiled by the Census Bureau showed , that In these' States, embracing 2 per cent, of the nation's population, the death rate was 11.6 per 100,000 of population, as compart d with 10.4 in 1920. Among the cities of 100,000 or more population Los Angeles had the highest death rate and California led all- States. . New York State registered the largest number of actual deaths with 1.632, an Increase of 222 over 1920.' Total deaths In the cities were 4,415 last year, and Increase of 209 over 1S20. The ' death rate per 100,000 of population in the cities was 15.8. an Increase of 0.8 over 1920. New York City had the largest, number of deaths, 885, an increase of 112, or more than 10 per cent. Chicago was second with 669, an Increase of 97. Albany showed the largest increase in rate over 1920 with 16.6 per cent v " The figures r' M also made comparisons ib i 1921 and 1917, In tbo latter.o ,n fatalities were 6.724, In New "tor City in this five- year period the death from ": auto mobile accidents increased from.. 651 i rr-f -ft to R85. rra "eam -rule,, in ew xorg trey i in 1917 was 10.2 per 100.000 of popu'a tlon, as compared with 16.6 per J.00, MO of population in 1921. For the whole registration area' the death rate in 1917 was 9 and 11.5 in 1921, from which it appears that tbe death rate in New York Gity at all times in the last five years has been above the average for the registration area.
