Ply Shiminy? Ish Dot So?

There is doubtless such q thing as
excessive promptness in emergencies.
Presence of mind and determination
are admirable qualities in themselves,
but it sometimes happens that q
decision made upon the spur Of the
moment is regretted upon a more
deliberate survey of the field. This
remorse seems to have oveltaken
lately a worthy Dutchman of Anaka
county, Minnesota. The Dutchman
was seeking to reach town at some
distance from Sank Centre, and TO
accomplish this must drive over the
prairie from the latter town. He
was unaccustomed to the road and
night overlook him with his vehicle
fast in slough and no town in sight.
He sought the solitary farm house
visible and asked permission to stay
till morning, the farmer telling the
traveller, however, that il would be
necessary for him to slice with the
children or with the farmer himself,
as their accommodations werelimited.
Quick as lightning, the Dutchman
expressed his resolution not to sleep
with the "bodderaton chiltren," so
he slept with The farmer The rest
of the story may be given in his own
language.
