oBEpIENr HUSBANDS,

There were five of them together, and
1t was late. They had been drinking.
Finally one of them looked at the clock,
and said What will our wives say when:
we come home ,"
Let them say what they want to.
Mine will tell me to 90 to the mischief ~
responded No. 2.
IN tell You what we will do. Let us
meet here again in the morning and tell
our experiences. Let the one that has re.
fused to do what his wife told him to do
when he got home, pay for the nights en-
tertainment."
That's a good idea. We all agree to
that" So the party broke mp, and went to
their respective homes. Next morning
they met at the appointed place and began
to tell their experiences.
Said No. /
When opened the door my wife was
awake. She said "A pretty time of night
for you to come home. You had better 90
out and sleep in the pigpen for that's
what you will come to sooner or later. )
Rather than to pay for what we had drank
last night, did what she told me to.
That lets me out.
"Next."

ing party on railroad here is made up of
mountaineers and Georgians. One of the
latter performed foolhardy feat the other
day that made the blood of the unaccus.

in advance of the engineer, when some one
shouted, $50 Ware of rattlesnakes % He
saw one of these reptiles about four feet
long and five or six inches in diameter w.
ing just ahead. The Georgian cut short
stick with a forked end, and creeping up
to the snake he deity pinned it to the
earth by pushing the forked end on either
side of his neck. Then, Selling the tail in
his right hand, he ran his left down the
snakes body, and grasping it firmly just
back of the head, he held it up at arms
length and called on the others to
:" look at the varmint's mouth" 1t
was anything but a pleasant sight,
and most of the spectators were horri.
fed. After holding it few minutes for
general inspection, he suddenly swung the
snake over his head with his right hand,
letting 60 the hold of the left, and dashed
it with great force against rock, killing
it instantly. Il was cool and dexterous
feat, but very trying to the lookers-on, who
censured the mau for his "folly," at which
