WHAT IIE KNEW ABOUT THREsHISe.

Tho Titusyile Press gives an account
ofa young man from an Eastern city who
mad been visiting rural friends IN that
vicinity After seeing farmer thresh
out a flooring Of oats the other morn.
ing, he asked and received permission to
,wing the fail few minutes, upon as
,uring the agricuturlst that he was "per-
lcctly familiar with the art Of threshing."
Expectorating on his hands, the young
man went at The oats but at the first pass
knocked the horn of a new mich COW
that was leisurely chewing her cud In
neighbofing stall. The second swing
aaved IN the head Of the farmer, who
thought he was safe enough as long Rs
ne roasted on top Of the tanning mill IN
the other end Of the barn, but without
discovering the havoc he was making, the
city artist kept at his labors; the third
blow tell upon the oats, the fourth killed
hen Ia nanger near by, and the ffth
pass Of the deadly weapon was the best
Jt all, for II came round behind the young
nan boomerang fashion, and taking him
under the lower Jaw, Knocked him down,
tud thus put stop TO the work o.
Slaughter The mere fact that the clty
.'lhresher' returned to consciousness an
hour before the farmer did allowed the
ormer to get several miles out Of town
before bis efforts at ihreshng oats were
discovered by the neighbors.

RInvention is not exactly con-
fined to the Chinese. A BroOkfeld
lady has had a goose pleasantly en-
gagged on several eggs 1t is a we'll
established tradition that a goose
will not remain ~contented on the
nest unless there is Il gander in sight.
1t Is a beautiful illustration of the
con6ding and lovable dependence of
the sex. About the time the setting
was half over, the gander died.
Here was q dilemma The eggs
were not far enough gone to make
good goslings, and yet rather too
far to make palatable omelettes. She
was not able to borrow a gander, so
she resorted to artifice. She took
a looking-glass and placed it in
front of the nest so the goose was
able 10 see her own reflection, and
being nothing but q goose. the set

A Tale of Love,

One quiet day 10 leafy June, when
bees and birds were all in tune, two
lovers walked beneath the moon.
The night was fair, so was the maid;
they walked and talked beneath the
shade, with none TO harm or make
afraid.
Her nsme was Sal, and bis was
Jim, and he was fat, and she was
slim, he took to her and she took to
him.
Says Jim to Sal, s'by all the snakes
that squirm among the brush and
brakes. l love you better'n buck
wheat cakes"
Says she to Jim, "sinee you've be-
gun it, and been and gone and done
it. and l love you next to a new bon
net"
Says Jim to Sal, "my hear. you've
busted, but / have always girls mis-
trusted"
Says Sal to Jim, Through thick
and thin for your true lover count me
in, I'll spark no other man sgin."
Jim leaned on Sal, Sal leaned or
him, his nose just touched above hel
chin. Four lips Observation-Disclosures
And then-and then-and then. Oh
gals. beware of men in June, and
underneath the silvery moon, wher
frogs and June bugs are in tune, les
yon get your names in the papeI

thirty years successful practice, that the
alarming consequences of self-abuse
may be radically cured without the dan
gerOus use of internal medicine or the
application of the knife; pointing out a
