A CANADIAN visiting Mariet-
ia friend during the present year,
had the pleasure Of eating the first
musk melon he ever saw. He was
delighted with it's delicious flavor.
Shortly wards he was walking
in a field with his friend when he
came across huge pumpkin. -
"IIere,' says the Canadian, ''is q
very fine muskmelon; suppose we
eat it ~ The Mariettian smiled and
told him all right; cut it OPEN
The Canadian commenced pryiag
into the pumpkin but its toughness
didn't yield readily. lie complain
ed that it should be so ripe yet SO
stubborn. His efforts were finally
rewarded, and after eating a slice,
he began to expectorate and make
faces, expressing his distaSte by say
ing, "Ugh! mean flavor! must be
spoiIt !" All the time, our Marietta
friend was standing over him, churn-
ing his insides into butter, by vio>
lent shakes of laughter.
