play practical and harmless Jokes upon

club is the holding ofspiritual seances,
into which tyros are initiated with
proper solomnity. One of these sean

was attended by blonde attorney,
noted for his eloquence and his unfail-

A TRULY coon sPECINIEN.

We never resent inquiries, however
inopportune, the answers to which
may increase the stock of useful
knowledge of the inquirer. When
we worked at the case we never grew
tired of explaining why the lower case
box was larger than the others, or
the use of the nick. Even in the frat
days of our devilhood, when a cub
shoemaker asked why we didn't put
the other type in "that there frame"
(the tympan) and print both sides at
once, we couldn't answer, aud to con-
ceal our ignorance, told him that we
generally did, but that the pressman
had "bile on his arm" and had to
work light. Tho question was fair
one, aud it was naughty in us to ans
wer thus evasively. We tell it with
remorse, but it fairly illustrates our
good nature and willingness to tell all
we know and give good measure.-
