A POtatO.Bug Story.

A sad case has just come to light in
Braddock- fields. A man residing here,
who had small field within the Fields,
found himself and his little family sur
rounded by potato-bugs, with stripes
up and down, and some of them
cross-wise. He tried all kinds of rem
edies, but the bugs snorted at him in
scorn, and made hostile demonstrations.
He was advised to try the tobacco cure.
He did try it. He bought paper of
hne-cut and commenced to chew it. 1t
was his first effort at chewing. He went
out and got basket full of the bugs
and squirted the tobacco-juice in their
eyes, and they snapped their tails and
paved around as if they were awful
mad. He got away with about half of
the paper of fine-cut when he COM
menced to grow white about the gills.
He laid the basket that had the bugs in
it down, and put his hand up to his fore
head and found a cold sweat standing
upon his brow. He said to his wife
"My dear, / am panied TO announce
that l have the cholera. Fly, if you
would save yourself. Leave me to my
fate, and seek safety in flight" And
then he got so sick he couldn't contain
himself or anything. His wife rushed
away down to the Fields, and in few
moments had the whole borough in a fit
about the cholera. He recovered, but
SAYS he don't believe in exterminatine
prtato-bugs 10y tobacco juice.-Pjtt8-

Ice-Cream for Two.

Mr.. Rogers, of Winchester street,
thought he would surprise his wife and
few of her friends with AN ice-cream
treat, Saturday evening, as the weather
was dreadfully hot. So he went into
the confectionery, and ordered quart,
and had 1T put up in several thicknesses
OF paper, sugar loaf style. The confec-
toner told him how to carry it. and Mr..
Rogers gripped it and FASTENED toward
home. About three blocks from the
house he met neighbor who was going
nome on the same mission, and both of
them stopped to remark on the coinci-
dence. Then they fell to talking about
Betsy and L are Out" and trying to
compromise on the authorship, but
didn't make much Roadway. Rogers,
who was personal friend of Miss EN-
merson, claimed that she did not write
the poem, and tried to throw the odium
OF the authorship upon Carleton. The
nelghbor was indignant at this, as he IA
vored Carleton, and made the rather
strong assestion that Miss e. was none
to good to write it. Here Rogers lost
his temper, and the neighbor missed his,
and both of them werelaying themselves
out for one of the grandest intellectual
tussels ever seen in that ward, when a
sudden and severe chill along his left
leg startled Rogers into recollection
OF his errand, and looking down the I'M
happy friend of Miss Emmerson was
shocked beyond description to see pair
OF doeskin pants blighted in the bud,
and to find that the entire contents of
the paper package, with the exception of
trif1e caught in one shoe, had noise
lessly disappeared. Godfornitus !"
said Mr.. Rogers, and Immediately start
ed for home. The neighbor was appro-
priately panied by the accident, but was
of the private opinion that it was sort
of judgment from heaven on Rogers,
but whether for stopping to talk when
carrying ice-cream, or for his literary
views, he could not tell. When he got
home he told his wife about it, and sat
down to pull off his boots. Then he
bounded up and shot one hand behind
him, and howled; and shot the other
hand back there and howled again. Then
he jumped around and tore away at his
coat, which was new dress pattern, and
hurled in remarks about religion and
business, and all the while that coat
wept great tears of vanilla, and dropped
them on the furniture and wall paper,
and buried them in the carpet, and dash
ed them against the blanched cheeks of
the astonished wife. 1t was some fifteen
minutes before she found out that in his
zeal for Carleton he had unconsciously
iammed his package of cream into one
of his coat tail pockets. The next morn
ing he hunted up Rogers and divided
with him the express charge on pack
age of clothing to the Howard Mission.
