The church in Mid Bridge neigh
borhood is without a key and
tramps are SO bad that a certain
gentleman keeps the church bible
during the week. Last Sunday he
put the bible in his coat-tail pocket
and went to church as usual. He
arrived little early and sat out in
the shade with the neighbors talk
ing about south down calves, which
naturally led to the discussion of
the length of Absalom's hair, when
a dispute arose on that point. MIR.
Blank tried to convince his ansago-
mist that it was long enough to
reach up into the top of thorn
tree, say thirty feet, but the obstrep
erous fellow wouldn't believe il.
Mr.. Blank knew he had him, and he
smiled blandly and triumphantly as
he reached around for his coat tail
and tore his pocket getting the BIZ
BILE out to prove it. He tried to get
the man to yield without taking the
trouble to find the place, but he
would not, and so he commenced
turning the leaves to find the Songs
of David. His eyes bleared open
when he opened the book, and as
he turned the leaves they opened
wider, and his hair commenced to
stand on end. His friends became
frightened for him and one of them
looked over. lis shoulder and saw
that the boob nc had brought for a
bible was a pictorial History of
the Cannibal Islands, Including
1,065 Recipes for Cooking Mission

Frank o. McCord of the Fayette-

why he should deny it, 1t is an

honored our old friend 10. thus.
But, then, Frank wears honors with
modest diffidence, and if he has a
