Taking the Census.

An Ehleyy Lady Cawht-lhe taxing
of the last census has given US score Df
capital stories, but until yesterday we do
not recollect having stumbled upon the
following. We pick it up as an estray,
going the rounds without credit:
Last fall census taker, on tour OF
duty, stopped at an elegant brick dwelling
house on Western Row-the exact location
of which is no business of ours. He was
received at the door by a stiff, well dressed
elderly lady,who could be easily recognized
asawidow of some years standing. On lear
ming the mission Of her visitor, the lady
invited him to sit in the hall. Having ar
ranged himself into working position, he
inquired for the number of persons in the
family Of the lady.
eight, sir" replied the lady, "includ-
ing myself"
Every well-your age, madam"
"My age SIR she replied, with pier
cling, dignified look " | conceive it's none
of your business, what my age might be
you are inquisitive, sir
The law compcls me, madam, TO take
the age of every person in the ward; it is
nv duty to make the inquiry
"WeIl, if the law compcls YOU to ask, I
presume it will compel me to answer. 1
am between thirty and forty"
Il presume that means thirty-ive"
"No, sir, it means no such thing; l am
only .hirty-thrce years of age"
"vcry well, madam" putting down the
figures, "just as you say. Now for the
gcs of the children, commencing with the
youngest one, if You please"
Josephine, my youngest, is ten years
Of age"
"Josephine-rretty name-tcn,"
minerva was twelve last week"
"Minerva-captivating-twelve."
cleopatra Elvira hast just turned if-
teen"
cleopatra Elvira-charming-fifteen."
"Angelina is eighteen, sir-just eigh-
teen
"Angclina-favorite name-eig ghteen.'
"My eldest and only married daughter,
sir, Anna Sophia: is little over twenty
FIVE"
Twenty-Five did you say, madam ~
"Ycs, sir Is there anything remark
able in her being of that age 7"
"Wcll, no, l can't say that there is
but it is net remarkable that You should be
her mother when you were only eight years
Of age"
About that time the census taker was
observed sailing out of the house, closely
pursued by broomstick. 1t was the last
time he pressed lady to give her age.
