ALL BADLY SCARED.

NHR. COOLEY likes an early break
lVl fast, but he has had a great deal of
difficulty to induce his hired girl to. wake
soon enough in the morning to get it for
him. One day last winter he bought an
alarm clock, and when he got home he
set it for four o'clock, and laid it down
upon the shelf in the girls bed room.
He intended to tell her about it, but be-
fore he had chance to mention it even
to Mrs. Cooley, a boy came with tele-
graplc message demanding his presence
in another city, and he had to hurry off
to catch the train. He was compelled
to stay all night, and Mrs. Cooley, the
children and the girl were the only peo-
pie in the house.

On the eve of his return, his lady

procured from the neighborhood three
other babies, placed all four in a row,
on bed in an adjoining apartment, and
covered them up. S. arrived, embraced
his wife in great delight, and was then
led forth to behold his first born. When
the cover was raised, an indescribable
