survived his master many years
was wont to recount with great
glee how he had once picked up the
Emperor's cooked hat at review
when the latter, not noticing that
he was a private, said, carelessly :
"Thank you, captain" "In what

the ready witted soldier. Napoleon
perceiving his mistake answered
with smile: "In my Guard, for /
see you know how to be prompt" !"
The newly make officer received

somewhat similar snecdote is that

him fully equal to the occasion.
"How many fish are there in the
sea :" asked Suvoroff, GAIL that
are not caught yet" was the an

WIT AND HUMOR.

There was young lady named Hannah;
She had a nose like a bannanner;
She teached in a school
An she rid on a mule,
But she could never play on the pianner.
She married fellow named Tanner,
That carried the star-sprangled banner;
But they fell out and fit
She's grass widder yit,
An he drives dray in Savanner.-Ex.
