To- A country clerk in rural town
had a pet calf which lie was training
up in the ways Of the Ok. The calf
walked around very ~peaceably under
one end of the yoke while Mr.. Clerk
held up the other end. but in an unfor-
tunate moment the man conceived the
idea of putting his own neck in the
yoke to let the calf see how it would
seem to work with a partner. This
frightened the calf, aud, elevating his
tail aud voice, he struck a "dead run"
for the village, and Mr.. Clerk went
along with his head down and his plug
hat in his hand, strainiug every nerve
to keep up, and crying out at the top
of his voice; "Here we come, dang our
