From the Danbury News.
We are particular people When
we place any thing down we want TO
find it just ther when we look for It.
We are very particular about this
And when we do not place any thing
just there, we expect to find it there
Just the same. And more so. Mr..
CobIeigh took bath Sunday morning.
On coming from the waiter refreshed
and strengthened, he put on his pants
and drew the suspend ders over his bare
shoulders, and, taking his soiled cloth
ing in his arms, adjourned to the bed
room. Here he deliberately put bis
undershirf and q fine linen. over the
suspenders, and deliberately loosened
these articles while he tncked in the
garments. Then he looked for his
s1spenders. He had carefully placed
them on q chair, you kn0W-that chair
right ct the foot of the bed and he
looked there for them, as it was per-
fectly reasonable he should. They
were not there, however. g Mr. eCob-
leigh was surprised. He stared very
hard &c the chair and tried manfaliy
/ to keep down the rising temper. Then
he looked in every corner of the room,
| and got doWn on his knees and peer
ed under the bed, and even looked up
at the ceiling, and out of the window.
He examined these localities, not be
cause he expected to find the aEtlcte
there, but Mr.. Cobleigh wished to
show the world that there was no in
/ tention on his part to be unfair IN this
matter. He had left these suspenders
on the chair, aud, as they were mol
gifted with legs, some one had iremoE-
ed them. Mr.. Cobleigh was so confi-
dent of this that he deemed it prudent
to strike the stand with his fist, and
tell what ought to be done to the party
who took the suspenders. This he
did, and then called his wife. She
came at once. Alf.A GObleigh very
briefly related the loss, because he
hadn't time TO talk mach, and then
proceeded to talk about nothing else.
Mrs. Cobleigh carefully searched the
chair, while Mr.. Cobleigh stood BY and
grated his teeth. Then she carefully
searched the room, which SO exasper-
ated him, rs he had alresSy made tn
search, an left the snspendeHs On the
chair, that he tartIy Inquired IL snt
supposed he had hidden the articles,
This led her to explain that she believ'
ed he had left them somewhere else
ssDo yeu think I'd lie about pair Of
suspenders?" gasped he, as the awful
sucpicion flashed upon him. Mrs
CobIeigh was not prepared to back M
this proposition, perhaps she did moi
consider it at all, but she was conf.
dent that they had been mislaid, and
said 80, while Mr.. CobIsigh, hoId51s
up his garments, danced around in q
very furious manner. Finally a com
promise was made with two strips o.
wOolen cloth, with holes at the ends
and the Cobleighs went to church il
no very happy state of mind. Al
night when Mr.. .Cableigh retired, and
drew on his upper wardrobe for thai
purpose, a vehement exclamation at
fracted the attention of Mrs. Cobleigh
who, docking around, beheida Eers
sheepish-looking man trying 10 Olsen
gage pair OF suspenders rom under
a tight-fitting undershirt. "Weli,
declare" commenced that lady, t'I--'
"WilI you just shut up and go tc

leigh. She did. G. dha faihaE
