Inquisitive people som,imes meet w'th
little adventures which make them weak.
A fellow who was paying attention TO a
girl 10 Andover, Massachusetts, stole up
to the kitchen where she was at work the
other morning, thinking to see what kind
Of q housekeeper she was. He got inter
ested as he stood behind q door all upob.
served, watching the fair one at her toll,
and IN tie ardency Of his observation he
obtruded his nose into q crack Of tho
door. She innocently shut that dsor n
little, and there was mashed bugle. He
now wears it in a sling.
