Pretty Good.

Clutterbuck's story of the old lady (h:s

In the good ole times, "whep the Ply
mouth colony" was truly the "land of
steady habits" there occasionally sprung
ur volatile funloving character, whose
habits and disposition formed strong
contrast with the upright and conscien-
tlous bearing of the old and formal Puri-
tans. An anecdote Of two farmers of this
class, living near each other, will afford an
apt illustration Of the text:
One was possessed of some dozen fine
sheep, who having a decided antipathy to
ninemeut, would sometimes trespass on
the enclosure of their neighbour lie hav-
ing caught them in one of those overt acts,
determined to intlict summary vengeance
on them, and their owner. With this in
tcntion, he proceeded to catch them, and
running his knife through one of their hind
legs, between he tendon and the bone.
Immediately over the knee joint, and put
the other leg through the hole. In this
condition the whole flock decamped, leav-
ing one quarter less tracks than when they
came.
The feeder of the sheep kept his eyes
open; and soon after his neighbor's hogs
having broken into his enclosure. he took
advantage Of this opportunity for retaIia-
ton, by cutting their mouths, from ear to
car. In this way the four-iooted grunters
rather chop-falen, as may be sHpponed
made their way back to their own quar-
tiers. The owner Of the swine made his
appearance in great rage, declaring that
his hogs were ruined, and that he should
have redress. His ncighbor made answer
that he was not the cause-"for" said he,
the fact is my friend, didn't cut open
hem are hogs mouths, but seem my sheep
runnIm' about on three legs, they split
their mouths laughing.-N. y. Dutch-

a Mean Man.

THERE was n man who came into a
country store with an egg, which he wish
ed TO exchange for earning needle. To
obIige him the store keeper agreed TO trade.
When the hargain was over, the egg deal
cr asked:
''Don't you always treat when YOU have
driven Il trade?"
Not for SO small trade" answered
the merchant.
"A trades a trade, whether it's for one
or thousand"
"Aghast at the mans meanness, the
store Keeper complied, and asked him what
he would take
81 like glass Divine with an egg beat
up in it." answered the mean man.
The storekeeper said nothing, but took
the egg which he just received from the
man and broke it. 1t happened to be a
double yolked egg.
"Thcre," eXcIaims the mean man.
Now You must give me two needles, cause
that's double egg gin you."

ODD FELLOWS.


ODD FELLOWS when together met,
Are not, perhaps so odd 4 set,
AS many people say
Unless, indeed, it odd may be
That they should meet for charity,
With conscience clear to pay.
When the pale sufferer, seized by death,
But family draws his shortn ming breath
They cool his fevered tongue,
And gently balhc his throbbing brow.
While scenes ofearth, swift flccting now
By single hair seem huug.
Or when the spirit self is gone
To that far land to US unnnown,
Who dwell in tents ofclay
The fixed and CLASSY eyes they close,
The pain-distorted limbs compose,
And 20 the tomb convey.
Odd Fellows surely odd they are
The sick and naked have their care,
The hungry, too are fed;
So odd, that they without reproof,
The houscless stranger give roof,
And where to lay his head.
