Once upon a time a gentleman
found in his henroost simple

"What are you doing here, you
rascal? Stealing my chickens p
"No, sir,' was the response, 81
amt thought of doin' nuthin' of the
sort"
1t unfortunately happened that
the simple minded intividual wore a
high straw hat, of the dimensions
of beehive, and the crown there
of was dilapidated to serious ex-
tent. Just as he put in his denial,
the head of half grown pullet was
seen to protude from the aperture.
''See there!" said the gentleman,
"How did that chicken get into
your hat?'
"Wellp' exclaimed the simple
minded individual, with an air of
honest surprise and embarrassment.

4 Knowin0 Pig.

In a small manufacturing village
in Massachusetts lives one Nicholas
H., an Irishman by birth, tailor by
profession, and, withal, a whole
souled, good fellow. Like all the
rest of his countrymen, Mick
must needs keep a pig. Some time
ago he obtained possession of one
of the most unruly Of that proven
bially unruly and obstinate species.
At one time the pig would jump
over the pen; then Nick would add
an extra board. The next day the
animal would burst through the side
of his residence or "root cut" IN
derneath. His owner came to the
conclusion that he had got hold of a
genuine descendant of one Of the
swine which the devils entered
Aud yet, perhaps, because of the
trouble he had with "the baiste,
Nick was rather proud of his pig,
which grew and thrived wonderful
7 ly.
One day he went home from his
work, and, as usual, looked for his
pet; the pen was vacant. Nick
started down the street in search Of
the lost one. Finally he discovered
/ the truant, with head thrust through
the open door of the office of Dr..
P, the village physician, and busily
engaged in disposing of the last
remnants of some unknown sub
stance containedin asuspicious-look-
ing vessel just within. Sadly fright
ened, Nick sought the physician
Doctor said he, ''what is this
the pigs been eating :"
The doctor looked and roared.
"Why, Nick, he's swallowed all
my pills" Nick sprang back with
horror.
'My soul, he's a dead pig!'
ooh, l guess not, was the hugh
ing response; ''they we're nothing
but bread pills
"Ah-h-h'' said Nick, with a
sigh of relief, and casting a glance
of pride upon his porcine friend
''Isn't he a cute one, doctor ? Sure,
he sees through your hOnor's tricks
better than all your patients

A young gentleman living in
Kingston. N. Y, went to see his girl
the other night, and when he started
for home, the night being dark, bis
inamorata gave him a red paper Ian
tern with which to light his lonely
way. He took the railroad track as
being the shortest route to his home,
and was walking leisurely along, his
mind no doubt filled with agreeable
thoughts of the fair one he bad just
left, when suddenly his reverie was
brought to an end by some one in the
rear, who gave the Chinese lantern a
kick, which sent it flying. "Con-
found you,' said the person from be-
hind, "here I've been slowing my
train for the last two hours on ac-
count of that red light" And look
ing behind him saw freight train,
and it was the engineer who bad dis
turbed his meditations.
