Judge Pitmnn has a habit of slipping

to bed. One night somehow it slipped
down, and rs the Judge WIS restless it
worked its way down toward the foot
of the bed. After Il bit, while he was
lying awake his foot touched it; it felt
very cold;~hc was surprised, scared, and
jumping from the bed, he exclaimed:
"My gracious, Maria ! there's IL toad
or something under the covers; touch

Mrs. pitman gave loud scream and
was on the floor in an instant.
"Now don't go to hollcring and wax

"You get me broom or something and
we'll fix the thing mighty quick"
Mrs. Pitman brought the broom and
gave it to the Judge with the remark
that she felt as if snakes were creeping
up and down her legs and back.

gently removed the covers The Judge
held the broom npliftcd, and as tho
black ribbon of tho silver watch was re-
vcalcd, he cracked away at it. three or
four times with the broom, then he
pushed the thing off into the bucket.
Then they took the light to investigate
the matter. When the Judge saw what
il was he said:
81 might have known, it is just like
yon women to go scrccching and fussing
about nothing. It's utterly ruined"
'It was you mado the fuss, not me, "
said Mrs. Pitman." .
"You needn't try to put the blame on

growlcd at Maria until he fell asleep.
