HUMOROUS.
Getting Dinner for a Minister.

r,o e,I,ow;np story is good illustration of
+be free and easy habits of pioneer life. Some
families might feel relieved if they could
Obtain supply for their tables, when enter
tanning the minister, on easy terms:
Mr.. Bascom travelled two years in the
mountainous region of Kentucky. The coun-
try was rough, and the people generally poor.
But the romantic wildness of the country was
congenial to his feelings, and he enjoyed
the rude hospitality of the sincere hearted
foresters.
He used to tell, with much apparent plea
cure, of dinner he enjoyed with particular
satisfaction. He was preaching on one occa-
sion in a cabin, which was q once church
and dwelling. Thepeople wero listening with
seriousness and with attention to the truths
of the Gospel, when, in the very midst of his
sermon, his host, whosat near the door, sudden
ly rose from his seat, snatched the gun from
its wooden brackets upon which it lay against
the joist, went hastily out, fired it off, and
returning, put the gun in its place and quietly
seated himself to hear the remainder OF the
sermon.
The whole affair had hardly consumed as
much time as it takes to read this account OF
it. and in very few moments all was going
on as smoothly as if no interruption had oc-
Cured. After service was ended, Bascom
inquired of the man the meaning of this
strange conduct
''sir," said he, "we are entirely out of meat,
and was perplexed to know what we should
give you for dinner, and it was preventing me
from enjoying the sermon, when the Good
One sent flock of wild turkeys this way l
happened to see them, took my gun and killed
two at shot; my mind e t e,sy, AMI 1 enjoy
ed the remainder of the sermon with perfect
satisfaction"

A Controversy About Ladies' Feet.

The editors of Terre Haute and Lafayette,
Indiana, indulge themselves in occasional
pleasantries like the following:
The reason why Lafayette doesn't build a
rink, is this The ladies of that city have
such big feet that no more than four or five
can skate in rink at time; therefore the
concern wouldn't pay.-Tere Haute Journal.
1t is a number eleven lie. The Lafayette
ladies are celebrated for their pretty feet
All's well, you know, that ends well, and the
Terre Haute editor, afflicted with the daily
exhibition of agricultural hoofs, is dying of
envy. Goodwin of our city, made pair of
twenty Lights for a Terre Haute belle. He
built them in his backyard on a sort of ma
rine railway, and launched them. IF ever an
old woman lived in a shoe, it was down at
Terre Haute.-Lntdyene Courier.

An Englishman had heard of the Yankee
habit of Dragging, and thought he would cut
the comb of that propensity. He saw some
huge water melons on market woman's stand
and walking up to her, and pointing to them
with look of disappointment, said

these in America 2"

A VERY RICH FARM.-The narrator
says,-"I went over last summer with two
friends and Jones took US on four acre let
he had just prepared for planting We all
went to the centre of the lot, and he there
made single hill and showed us cucumber
seed.
tNow, when I put this seed into the
gro1nd you must run and get out just as quick
as you can, he said.
''No sooner had he dropped the seed than
he and others started off as if bull dog had
been after them. was so surprised that
forgot the warning until I saw a vine push
ing up from the ground and making for me.
Then ran as if for dear life, but before
got to the fence the vine caught me and be-
gan to wind around me like snake. I was
much alarmed and put my hands to my pocket
for my jack knife with which to cut myself
loose, but to my horror I could not get in on
account of cucumber which hung there
and which was growing like blazes.
