What Was He Doingl

Not long ago q gay young merchant who lives
at the South-end, told his elderly wife that he
was compelled from considerations of expediency
to take a customer from the country to the thea
tire. When his elderly wife made comments up
on the elaborate nature of his toilet for rural
person of the male sex, he replied: 20, you see,
everything depends upon impressing that sort of
people favorably." At this moment the mereh-
ants office boy made his appearance. SWELL"
said the deceiving husband, "did you see the
gentleman 1 sent you tot" "Yes, sill" replied
the messenger. "And You told him had tickets
for the theatrei" "Yes, sir, and he said he was
much obliged to you, and he would be happy to
60 with you, and be would wait for you."
"What was he doing p said the unsuspecting
wife, carelessly. "He was just fastening the
strings of his pullback,n answered the ingenious
youth. He found himself less than a moment

A SubSrftute.

Mr.. Pilkinson, farmer in Pennsylvania, was
drafted for the service of his country. His wife,
though she possessed but small stock of gener-
al information, is one of the best conjugal part
ners; and she was much troubled at the thought
of parting with her husand. As she was engaged
scrubbing off the doorsteps, rough looking
stranger came up and thus addressed her:
81 hear, madam, that your husban has been
drafted.
"Yes, sir; he has" answered Mrs. Pilkinson,
"though dear knows, theirs few couldn't better
be spared from their families"
swell, madam, have come to offer myself as
o substitute for him."
"A WHAT" arked Mrs. Pilkinson, with some
excitement.
~ am willing 10 take his place." said the stran-
ger.
'You take the place of my husband, you
wretch. I'll teach you to insult distressed
woman in that way, You vagabond~ cried Mrs.
Pilkinson, as she discharged the dirty soap suds
in the face of the discomfitted and astohished
substitute, who took to his heels just in time to
save his head from being broken by the bucket.
