B. Luc to a fraction. Mrs. B. Luce
is n notwithstanding woman, who
however finally got tired of being
thr' wn upon her own resources and
so much into her own society when
she came to town for little relaxa-
ton and enjoyment. Oflate she ap-
pcarcd in'~puhlio with baby in her
arms, and really was not quite SO
lonesome; but she and the baby made
a little plot to beat the old man, and
this was the way of it:
( Lately, on a fine morning, B. Luce
and wife and baby went to town to
take day. Luce dropped wife and
baby at the store as usual. Wife
immediately asked Luce to hold baby
for minute, while she attended TO II
little matter Of dress that needed fix
ing. Luce bit at the baby, and said
-"All right, but be quick" Wife
left the store by a side door, and went
down the street with ling feet
And she took the whole day to do it.
Luce could not give the baby away or
loan it. 1t became unpleasant i'll the
store, from various causes among
which was bowling at customers; and
Luce tucked the baby under sarm,
i'll desperation and took it out for n
walk. In the street, his troubles in
creased. He met the boys. They saw
how it was, and enjoyed the scene.
They did not talk horse" They
came around and made faces Mt the
Luce chcrub, and pinchcd its toes to
make music for the march. It was a
glorious mcrrYmaking for the boys,
but Il horrible prcdicament for the
father of that innocent babe and the
husband Of that tricky wife. He
roamcd around town. looking wildly
Tor the .hcartlcss mother, AMI bcwail-
ing the day that made him happy
father.
At length lie offered five dollars for
tho arrest and ratnrn nf his wife. Tie
news on the reward reached her; she
came, and clnimcd the money. as she
needed it to buy pin or two and n
piece of tape. She got the ivc-dol'nr
bill before she took the baby, and ha.!
never been so rich in her life.
