An Old Lie.

For hard lying the following can't be beat
A correspondent who lives in New Hampshire
states that in those parts resides a man called
Joe fellow noted for the tough lies he can
tell. As sample read the following:
Joe called at Holton's one day and found
him almost choked with smoke, when he sug-
gested:
You don't know as much about managing
smoky chimneys as do, squire, or you d cure
EN-"
''Ab," said Holton With interest, ibid you
ever see 2 smoky chimney cured ?"
Seen smoky chimney cured?" said old
Joe. 4 think | have | had the worst one in
Sesboar1 county once, and | cured it little
too much.
Elbow was that r. asked Holton.
s'Whv. YOU see" said .ioe - you see I built
Q little hou., out yonder at Wolf tIollow, ten
or twelve years ago. Jim Bush. the fellow that
buit the chiimaeys, kept blind drunk three
quarters Of he time, and crazy drunk the 9th
err told him that he would have Something
wrong, but he stuck to it aud flushed the Chin
ney. Well, we moved in and bnilt fire next
morning to boil The tea-kettle. All the smoke
came through The room and went out of the
windows; not bit went up the hues We
tried it Tor tgo or three days, and it grew worse
and worse By-anG-by it came o., 70 rain. and
the rain began to come dowa the chimney. II
put the FIRE out In a n:iaute, and directly it
came do"a by the paiiful. We had 10 get the
baby OF the door As soon as we could, or il
would have drowned. In fifteen minutes the
water stood knee-deep on the floor. Then |
went and took look. 1t didn rain half SO
hard outside, and pretty soon saw what was
the matter The drunken cuss had pat the
chimney wrong end up. and it drawed down
wards; It gathered all the rain within a hun
dred yards, and poured it down by the bucket .
full" '''0 '"'A0'
Wen, that was unfortunate remarked
Holton. But what In the world did you do
With the house? Surely you never cured that
chimney"
,'Dldnt [, thought" answered old joe
How asked Holton.
Turned 1t other end up" said the incor
riglble, 'and then you ought to have soon :,
draw. That was the way cured it too much -
drew too much = asked Rolton.
well, squire, you may Judge for voursolf,,
said old Joe. Pretty soon after we got tho
chimney down and the other end m I m;ssaS
one OF the chairs out of the room. and direotIu
see another of EN- shooting towards the fire,
place: Next the table went, and I saw tho
back log going up. Then l grabbed the old
woman under one arm and the baby under
t5other, and started; but just as I got to the
wards, holding on with her claws 70 tbo ca u@cA
yelling. awfully. 1t wasn't no use. | lust seen seen
her going over the top of the cbimnev ,' . acd
that was the last of her. - @"u
We'll, what did you do then?' asked Hol
ton: .Of course you couldn't live in such .
house?" AZ 'oon
Couldn't /, thought said Joe; but
did. put poultice On the lam of the fro
place, and that equalized things by dawn G,o
t'other way /; so we had no more trouble !"

The prettier the better;
Pat her cheek, and when
She wants to kiss you-let her.

There she'll cook your mutton;

a MYSTERY.
L that mystic path was treading,
When the sun his rays was shedding,
Beaming, cleaning, fairly streaming thro the
trees;
And | watched the streamlet glistening,
AS entranced there was listening
To the melting, merry music of the breeze;
When beneath d tree reclining,
Where no ray of sun was SHINING,
Lol saw fellow being the ground;
Though no other feature shifted,
Quickly, soon his eyes uplifted,
Upward lifted, as he wildly looked around.
Good friend, said l, approaching
Do not charge me with encroaching,
Are you waiting for some messenger of news
But other word he uttered,
And other sentence muttered
Save go to Simon Hilb for dry goods, boots
and Shoes;
That's strange expression surely,
Said l. looking down derlurely,
l trust good sir, the question you'll excuse,
But he only looked the prouder,
As he spoke the words the louder
60 to Hilb's for all the goods you use.
Why bless me, man l shouted,
As his sanity doubted,
lis surely naught to me what merchants goods
you buy.
But he only cried the higher, =
w it'll enthusiastic fire,
You'll save half your cash if Simon Hilb you
So left him there reclining,
Where no ray of sun was shining,
And frequently l wondered at what the man
spoke IN the woods;
Thinking surely it was mystery,
And that some hidden history
Was weaving round myself and Sinlon's goods,
So then | resolved to try them.
Then couldn't help but buy them,
And, behold Eve cause for gladness
That the words l deemed were madness
Induced me thus to purchase my goods from
Simon Hilb.
So all will find the same cause for gladness
Who call in time to secure some of
The late bargains, lately received direct
From New York
They will find a splendid assortment of Ladies'
Cloaks, at prices ranging from 81 90 to SIS; 200
