The Landlords Mistake.

A fat, burly English landlord was sit
ting one afternoon at the door of his inn,
in a provincial town not a hundred miles
from London, when person entered the
house, and after complimenting its clean
illness and snug appearance, ordered
good dinner and bottle of wine. The
dinner, when ready, was laid in an upper
apartment looking out upon the pleasant
garden; and after it had been thoroughly
discussed, and the wine slipped luxuriously
to the bottom of The bottle, the satisfied
guest sent for his host, and when he en-
tered the room, thus addressed him !:
''9ou have very fine inn here, landlord,
everything is particularly nice-in fact
what | call comfortable" The landlord
expressed his qualification. 81 shall have
great pleasure" continued the guest. sin
recommending your house to my friends
in town. There remains only one more
thing to mention, and as the subject is
one which have reason to think will be
as unpleasant to you as to myself, | will
express it in few words. l have not at
present any money: but I will be here
again in '.No naonty p exclaimed
the landlord, In a voice husky with anger.
''No money! then why did you come to
the Hen and Chickens TO run up bill
that you can't pay? Get out of my
house this instant Go Walk !" "I
expected this" said the guest rising; s'I
anticipated this treatment, nor can /
blame you much, landlord, to tell you the
truth, for you don't know me. Because
you sometimes meet with deception, you
think | am deceiving you; but pledge
