Tale Without a Head.

Jake was little negro who belonged
to DR.. TaIliaterro, and was said to have
in his little frame heart as big as Gen
Jackson's, to say nothing of Napoleon
Bonaparte and Zach Taylor. He did not
fear even old Nick, and as for cooIness
he was as cool as the tiptop of the North
| Pole.
One day DR.. Talliatetro, upon the oc-
casion of the commencement of q Medi
cal College, of which be held the chair
of Anatomy, gave a dinner. Among his
guests was we'll known ventr'lioqulst.
Late in the evening, after the bottle had
done its work, the conversation turned
upon courage, and the doctor boasted
considerably upon the lion heart of his
fayorite man Jake. He offered to bet
that nothing could scare him, and this
bet the ventrllo4uist took up, naming at
the same time the test he wanted i'm
posed. Jake was sent for and came.
Jake" said the doctor,'I have bet a
large sum of money on your head, and
you must win it. Do you think you

there. Cut off the head OF one with a
large knife which you will fod there,
and bring it to us. You must not take

Oats all, is it :" enquired Jake. "Oh,
berry we'll. III do it, shore, for certain !;
and as for beiH frighten', old satin him
self amt gwine to frighten me-"
Jake accordingly set off, and reached
the ''lssecting room, grouped about until
he fottnd the knife and bodies. He had
lust applied The knife 70 the neck of one
Of the latter, when from the body he was
| about to decapitste, a hollow ar sepu!-
chural voice exclaimed :.
"Let my head aIone.'
"Yes, sah," replied JAKE Il aint tick
ular; fodder head II do jes as welI.'
He accordingly put the knife to the
head of the next corps, when another
voice equally unearthIy in its tone, shrek
ed out:
LET my head aIone..'
Jake was puzzled at first but presently
answered:
Look yah Massa TelIifer sed
must bring one OBJ de heads, ard you
isn't gwine to fool me no how" :" and Jake
hacked away until he separated the head
from the body. Thereupon half dozen
voices all screamed out
"Bring it back! bring 1t back"
| Jake had reached the door, but, on
hearing this, turned round and said:
"Now, now, see yah Jes you keep
quiet, you duce OBJ fool, an don't wake
up the women folk. Massa only gwine
to look at the bumps"
"Bring back my head at once!' cried
| the voice.
"Tend to you, right away, sah.!" replied
Jake, as he marched off with the head
aud the next minute he deposited it be
fore the doctor.

out Of mans history, and what could his

Christianity is mixed up with our Very

familiar object around you which does
not wear different aspect, because the
