Greek Jokes la their DOfage.

There is one story which it is said that
Washington related of man who went
into an inn, and asked for glass of drink
from the landlord, who pushed forward a
wineglass about half the usual size-the
glasses OF that day were not moro than
halfShe present size. The landlord said
That glass ost of which you are
drinking is mere than forty years old:
Well" said tho thirsty traveller,
contemplating its diminutive proportions
~ think it IS the smallest thing of its
age 1 ever saw" .E/
That story as told ia given as q story OF
Athens 375 years before Christ was born.
Why all of these Irish bulls are Greek,
every one of them. Take the Irishman
who carried around brick as a specimen
OF tho house he had to sell take the Irish
man who shut his eyes and looked into
the glass to see how he would look when
he was dead /; take the Irishman that
bought crow because he had heard that
crows were reported 10 live 200 years,
and he meant to set out and try it. Take
the Irishman that met friend who said
10 him : a..4
Why, sir 1 heard you were dead"
WE'LL" says the man, 81 suppose
you see am not"
" Oh, !" says the man, II would
believe the man who told me great deal
quicker than | would you." z2a
Well, those are all Greek. A score
or more of them of "a parallel character,
came from Athens. Our old Boston pat
riots felt that tarring and feathering a
tory was genuine patent Yankee fire.
brand-Yankeeism. They little imagin-
cd that when Richard Cnur de Lion set
out on one of his crusades, among the or
dors that he issued to his camp of soldiers
was that any one who rabbed henroost
should be tarred and feathered.
Many man who lived in Connecticut
has repeated the story of taking children
to the limits of the town and giving them
a sound thrashing to enforce their memo
ry of the spot. But the Burgundians, in
France, in a law now HOO years old, at
tributed valor to the East of France be-
cause it had a law that the children should
be taken to the limits of the district and
there soundly whipped, in order that
they might forever remember where the
limits came. So we have very few new
things in that line Wendell PltttipS.
