Busby Of Trenton celebrated his
"iron wedding" one day last week and
he invited about one hundred and
twenty guests TO the wedding. Ol
course each person felt compelled to
bring a present Of some kind, and each
did. When Mr.. and Mrs. Smith came
they handed Busby pair Of fat.irons.
All hands laughed at the coincidence,
and there was even greater :ierriment
when the Browns arrived with two
pairs Of fat.irons. But when Mr.. and
Mrs. Robinson came in with another
pair Of fat irons the laughter became
perfectly convulsive. There was, how.
ever, something less amusing about it
when the Thompsons arrived with four
fat irons wrapped in brown paper.
Aud Busby's face actually looked
grave when the three johnson girls
were ushered into the parlor carrying
q fiat iron apiece. Each one Of the
succeeding sixty guests brought fiat
irons, and there was no break in the
continuance until old Mr.. Curby came
from Philadelphia with cast iron
COW bell. Now Busby has no earthly
use for COW bell, and at any other
time he would have treated such
present with scorn. But now he is
actually grateful to Mr.. Curby, and
he was about to embrace him when the
Walsinghams came in with the new
kind of double pointed fat iron with
wooden handle. And all the rest Of
the guests brought the same articles
except Mr.. Rugby, and he had with
him patent stand for holding fat
irons. Busby got madder and madder
every minute, and by the time the
company had all arrived be was near.
ly insance with rage, and he went up
to bed leaving his wife to entertain the
guests. In the morning they counted
up the spoiis and found they bad 213
fiat irons, one stand, and COW bell.
And now the Busbys have cut the
Smiths and Browns and Jacksons and
Thompsons aud the rest entirely, for
they are convinced that there was a
preconcerted design to play a trick
upon them. The fact, however, is that
the hardware store in the place had
an overstock of fat irons and sold
them at an absurdly low figure, and
Busby's friends went for the cheapest
thing they could find, as people always
do on such occasions. Busby thinks
he will not celebrate his "silver we'd
ding"
