B The Goose Tower. In the early years of the fourteenth century the “free cities”—Hamburg, Lubeck and Bremen—sent a delegation of seventy-seven members to King Valdemar to demand increased rights and privileges in their trade with Den- mark. The delegates were not very respectful in their language and de- meanor, and the king, who was at Vordingborg, told them they actea like o drove of geese and clapped them into prison in the tower, telling them they would stay there until they learn- ed better manners. Over the heavy tower door the king puf up a stone with the inscription: * Sieben und siebenteg Hause: Sieben und siebenteg Ganse; ‘Ware nicht so viele Hause Hat f&th auch nicht so viele Ganse. Translated this reads: ‘“Seventy- seven houses and seventy-seven geese. If there were not so many houses I would not have so many geese.” On top of the tower, which still stands solid and strong, was placed a big gilt goose, with neck outstretched as if it were hissing. 7 New-Gash-Want-Rate ',-Cent-a-Word Where cash accompanies copy we| will publish all “Want Ads” for half- cent a word per insertion.
