One man took paper, and his life
was happier than kings; his chill.
dren all could read and write and talk
of men and things. Another took no
paper; and while strolling through
the wood, q tree fell down upon his
crown and killed hm-as it should.

Editors know lots of such stories.
They don't often tell them, because
they don't wish to harrow tho foclings
of their readers. We will add this,
howcvcr, as q solemn warning:
A young married man was solicited
to take q paper. Hc declined on the
ground that any village papor was not
worth DAM; though we do not know
whether he meant q female boast, u
saw-mill dam, cofiicr-dam, or the
othorkind. Well, the evening of the
same day, not loving his wife as no
should, and having no yirtuous en-
ploymcnt on hand, and not having a
ViilaSc paper to real, he went into
esby and forbidden paths" slipped
down and broke his leg.
If he had been u subscribcf4or q
village paper, and had been at home
reading it to his lovely wife, or had
been listening to her reading of it,
this serious accident would not have
| happened. But worse than all, he
dared not have an account Of tho acct
dcnt semitic tho village paper and his
wlfc wept many hours because he had
no right to have his namc in tho pa
Pors lilo had six weeks to figure up
tho value ola DAM.
Let us hope that others will bo
warned by this tragic affair, not to
speak profancly of village papers, nor
act Rrotancly, in not subscribing for
them, and paying in advance

slowly, rs coon approaching trap,
entered highly decorated saloon, and
after much misgiving and hesitation,
the prcmonitory chills of f'big skccr"
chasing each other in rapid succession
down his back, he modcstly vcnturcd
to ask tho attendant to fill his Jug
and while this was being done, he
chanccd to raise his head, and his cyo
fell on three by seven mirror behind
the counter, in which he was fully
represented but he did not bagi& to
know himself Behind him, On Sho
wall, was fine large painting Of II
Royal Bengal tiger, in attitude ready
to spring forward. lie instantly
lodged aside, shouting as he went
"Run, you cusscd infun'l fool,
thar's a striped boar cat as big as u
ycarlin fixing to kivcr you"
Pale and trembling, ho strobe to
whore tho bar keeper was filing his
jug.
"Say, gin me that jug jest as it is,
empty or full, an run and shut that

quick, cf you don't want your glass
struck ground up, and your hasslct

Seeing the bar keeper rather slow
in his motions to suit bis hurry, he pnt
for tho street with his eyes stuck out
and his hands erect saying:
"Durncd cf that teller don't havo
sassidgc meat to sell soon cf his lifc's

Here he stole q suspicious look back
at the house, and scratched his head.

Ello beat the wagon back to Tennessee
