The season for taking down stoves
is here. A church-going man in Bridge
port believing that the winter was
over, took down his stove last week -
His wife assisted. AS it was necessary
to carry it ups flight of stairs, the
husband went first, and his !wife took
the roar hold and followed. The man
thought this was an admirable arrange
ment, for in case the stove slipped aud
journeyed down stairs, his wife might
possibly gel her ueck broken, and he
would be left to get new mother for
bis children. But was disappointed.
The noble woman struggled bravely
with her end Of the stove, and didn't
have to bend her back bit, whilst her
considerste husband was bent nearly
double al the time, and just as the lat

swore. And before that stove was put
away, that chdrch.going man was set
