him regularly and sits down, and sits,

when suddenly the official. who had

ON strangers. They've been putting
glue on your chair again. Hi, John,

and pressing with all his weight on the
ehoulders of his victim to keep him
down he continues, Don't stir, you'd
tear the cloth sure! Nothing is half so
adhesive as glue on a cane-seat chair.
Here, John, moisten this gentleman so
that We can get him loose. Don't spare
The ~water-the cloth won't shrink or
fade"
The faithful messenger obeyed, and
when the operation is concluded, the
official conducts the visitor to the door
and bids him farewell with tho remark.
'.Perhaps you want to hurry home and
