The Alderman and the Raccoon
            "I SEE quite a number of rings on your tail," said an Alderman to a
            Raccoon that he met in a zoological garden.
            "Yes," replied the Raccoon, "and I hear quite a number of tales on
            your ring."
            The Alderman, being of a sensitive, retiring disposition, shrank
            from further comparison, and, strolling to another part of the
            garden, stole the camel.
