weather COW gives more than one
chez to each COW isn't none to the other.
Cows IS lots of kines, or veryities, like
dogs, and horses, and hens. Some don't
have no horns, and these is NOODLES wich
can't toss dogs like the one in the house

er be horse, for horses don't have to be
milkt.
once there was Teller, and he had
COW witch got burs in her tail so it was
all tangle, and he went to pick EN- out.
He put his fingers through the tarsel of
the ole cows tail like comb, and was
goln to begin wen the ole COW she got
afrade and began to walk away. The
teller he couldn't hole her, and he had to
60 too, tryne all the time to rull his
hngers out but couldn't for they was cot.

Dangerous Wealth.

THE London Globe says: ct is said
that among the possessions inherited by
the present Duke of Richmond was
found a bank-note for e50,000 This
unique piece of paper money, of whose
existence we have no doubt, was pre-
served with great caution, and by means
which must have been a source of peril
to friends and foes We are informed
that the late Duke caused the note to be
deposited in a casket, and this casket
was so fastened that any one who at
tempted to handle it at once received six
pistol shots The ingenious casket, we
are told, became a burdensome possession
to the present Duke His ancestor had
not transmitted to him the secret by
which it might be opened with safety,
and he was, therefore, not unnaturally
timid in the examination Of his treas
ure. Under these circumstances, we are
not surprised to learn that he finally de-
termined to deliver the casket and its
contents TO the Bank Of England, and to
permit the officers Of that establishment
to investigate the ingenuity Of the terri
bic contrivance. The duties Of property
would even be in excess of its rights if
every inheritance were tied up in this
way"

LORD ''1H remember him in time Of trouble"

Presence of Mind.

An English paper says: "A remarka-
BILE example of presence of mind in a
railway porter is afforded by an incident
which occurred as the down train from
Perth to Aberdeer was leaving Guthrie
Station. A newsboy who accompanied
this train while in the act of stepping
into a carriage missed his footing and
fell down between the platform and the
wheels of the carriages. As the train
was by this time in motion any attempt
on the part of the boy to get up would
have infallibly resulted in his instant
death. Nine persons out of ten wit
Messing this accident would have turned
pale and either shrieked out at the top
of their voices advice of various kinds,
or remained awe-stricken and motion
less, abiding the issue. Fortunately,
however, one of the station porters was
master Of the moment and of the situa-
ton, and, rushing forward, lay down on
the platform; then, Selling the boy with
his hands, held him fiat on the ground
till all the foot-boards of the train had
passed over him and the danger had
ceased"
Two boys we're standing before a
cigar store, when one asked the other,
Have you got three cents9" eyes"
Well, | have got two cents; give me
your three cents and will buy a five
center" "All right" says No 2,
handing out his money No. / enters
the store, procures the cigar, lights it and
puffs with a good deal of satisfaction
" Come, now, give US pull" says No. 2,
+" furnished more than half the money"

only a stakeholder, you can spit"
