A correspondent of the London Lam

published in England, relates the follow
ing curious fact: A man in his neigh
borhood had three daughters. Wishing
for son, he made solemn vow that if
his next child should ne a girl he would
never speak to her. The next child
proved to be son, as he wished, but,
curiously enough, he never would speak
to his father, although he lived thirty-ive
years with him. He always talked
freely with his mother and sisters, but
with no one else until after the death of
his father, when he talked readily with |
every one. He was called Dumb Eli.
