Prepare to Laugh.

Squire G.. tells the following good Hoosier
yarn, demonstrating the power of music
over the human mind:
Some years ago, tall, gaunt, knock
kneed, red-headed, cross-eyed lummeX of a
lloosier, who was hunter of the classical
Wabash, conceived the idea of making a
visit to the home of his progeniture in old
Kaintuck. He did so-ranted around among
the girls some, and was of course, from his
native impudence and unearthly ugliness,
the observed of all observers" One morn
inc the whole neiohborhood was astonished
with the news hat the ugly hoosier bad eop
ed with Mrs B., an amiable, good. looking
woman. wife of Mr.. b. and mother Of half
dozen little B's. For two long years the
dsconsolate husband mourned over his un-
toward bereavment, at the end of that period
however to his utter astonishnent one day,
in popped Mrs. b., looking as bright and
rosy as ever. After the first joyful greeting
was over, the injured husband addressed his
spouse thus:
Nancy, how could you take up with that
onairthy ugly hoosier, and leave me and the
little children all forlorn as you did,"
"Well, Josh" said Nancy, that thar tarnal
ugly cutter from lndlannv, was little the
best whistler ever hern tell on. You know
| was always fond of good whistln; | used
to think you could whistle some, but never
heard whistlin as is whistlin till | met that
thar Wabash f-ller He just whistled my
senses clean away, and foIleret him off on
that account A short time ago, however,
he caught the measels and that split his
whistlin forever-the charm was broken, and
so | concluded to come back to you; but, O
JOSH that hoosier was the awfulest whistler
that ever puckered.
There are in the United State seven hun
dred and fifty paper mills in actual operation
