while in camp near the house of his
sweetheart, sent her boquet with g
card attached, upon which was the
following poetic efusion;
''Axcept this bokey from a feller

Like nifty buzzards when they 1ize. @

Getting Dinner for a Minister.

The following story is good illustration
of the free and easy habits of pioneer life.
Some families might feel relieved if they
could obtain supply for their tables, when
entertaining the minister, on as easy terms:
Mr.. Bascom travelled two years in the noun
famous region of Kentucky. The country
was rough, and the people generally poor.
But the romantic wildness of the country
was congenial to his feelings, and he enjoy
ed the rude hospitality of the sincere-heart-
ed foresters.
He used to tell, with much apparent plea
sure, of dinner he enjoyed with particular
satisfaction. He was preaching on one oc-
casion in q cabin, which was at once church
and dwelling. The people were listening
with seriousness and with attention to the
truths of the Gospel, when, IN the very
midst of his sermon, his host, who sat near
the door, suddenly rose from his feat,
snatched the gun from its wooden brackets
upon which it lay against the joist, went
hastily out, fired it of, and returning, put
the gun in its place and quietly seated him.
self to hear the remainder of the sermon.
The whole affair had hardly consumed as
much time as it requires to read this account
of it, and in very few moments all was go
ing on as smoothly as if no interruption had
occurred. After service was ended, Bas
com inquired of the man the meaning Of
this strange conduct. ''
''Sir," said he, "we are entirely out OF
meat, and was perplexed to:know whai
we should give you for dinner, and it wa:
preventing me from enjoying the sermon,
when the Good One sent flock of wild
turkeys this way; happened to see them
took my gun and killed two at shot; my
mind felt easy, and I enjoyed the remand
er of the sermon with perfect satisfaction.
