Inoredulity Personified.

There is living on Martha's Vinevard An
old man who has never been off the Island
and the extent of his knowledge is bounded
by the confines of his home. He has been
told of a war between the North and South
but as he has never heard the din of battle.
nor seen any soldiers, he considered it a
hoax. lie is utterly unable to read, and is
ignorant to the last degree. An excellent
story Is told of his first and only day at
school He was quite lad when a lady
came to the district where his father resid-
ed, to teach school. He was sent, and as
the teacher was classifying the school he
was called up in turn and interrogated as to
his former studies.
OF course he had to say that he hadneyer
been to school, and knew none of his letters.
The schoolmistress gave him seat on one
side until she had finished the preliminary
examination of the rest of the scholars.
She then called him to her and drew on the
black board the letter A, told him what il
was and wished him to remember how it
looked. He looked at it a moment and
then inquired Che stuttered:)
H how do you know it's AZ"
The teacher replied that when she was
girl, she had been to school to an old gentle
man who told her so.
The boy eyed the A for a moment and
then asked, ''H-h-how did he know"
This was almost a sumner, but the teach
er suddenly recOllected that he had told her
that when boy he had been to a school to
