It Was Not the Cat.

An amusing incident occurred at the
quaint little hamlet Of Lakawaxen,
Pike county, a few days ago, The
hero of the hour was young man who
held position as book-keeper at one of
the well known Summer resorts. The
heroine was young, beautiful and ac-
com plished damsel of the neighoorhood.
They were returning from the sanctuary
and the "fatal questions" were being put
and answered. The earth was wrapped
in darkness, and nothing could be seen
but now and then the faint flickering Of
q star. The doting twain were nearly
home, when something rubbed against
the ''lover's" leg. Thinking it was a
cat, he set his foot out gently and lifted
the intruder out Of the path. His dot
ing companion, less cruel, persuaded her
idol to carry the kitten home. He
could not withstand her earnest plead
ings, so he picked pussy" up and placed
it carefully in his arms and began strok-
ing it over the soft fur with his hands.
Everything was happiness for a moment
and then those few faint twinkling stars
disappeared as il by magic, that gush-
ing maid uttered one piercing scream,
while he on whose arm she had leaned
SO lovingly, grasped his nasal organ with
one hand, and amid The greatest agony,
exclaimed, IS k-u-n-k, by gum !" The
''cat" was allowed to depart, and the
loving twain have made a VOW to never
have "purty pussy" in their domicile.
