Too MUCH FOR THE DEvM.-This ia
Edward Hale's story: a man had sold
himself to the devil who was to possess
him at O certain time unless he could
PROFOUND question to his Satanic ma
jesty which he could not answer, he be-
ing allowed to put three queries to him.
The time came for the devil to claim his
own, and he consequently appeared.
The first question the man asked was
concerning theology, to which it caused
the devil no trouble to reply. The se-
cond he also answered without hesita-
tion. The mans fate depended on the
third. What should it be?
He hesitated and turned pale, and the
cold dew stood on his forehead, while
he shivored with anxiety, nervousness
and terror, and the devil triumphantly
sneered. At this junoture, the mans
wife appeared in the room with bonnet
on her head. Alarmed at her husbands
condition, she demanded to know the
cause. When informed. she laughed
and said: II can PROFOUND question
which the devil himself cannot answer.
Ask him which is the front OF this bon
net?" The devil gave it up and returned
in disgust, and the man was free.

Alphonee Karr, the gardener poet,
has offered o bon mot to the world. He
was lately present at banquet given
by the disciples of Hahneman. Toasts
were given to the health Of every medical
celebrity by everybody, when the presi-
dent remarked: "Monsieur Karr, you
have not proposed the health Of any
one. The poet rose and modestly re-
piled: II propose the health OF the
sick."
A 'joke" is credited to an American
visitor in England: "Wall, stranger" he

done: They'd just bought up all the
Tichborne bonds, and then found YER
