Of lone females while laboring un-
der the impression that he recog-
nized a likeness in their faces to
his wife's aunt's cousin, met his
match on one Of the roads in this
vicinity lately. He sat down in a
half of a seat, the other half On
which was occupied by a pleasant
young lady. His first question
was
Pardon me, Miss, but is your
name James? l have a cousin of
that name, whom you greatly re-
sembIe."
No, sir" was the reply, "my
name is not James. But, pardon
me, is your name Zinc or Copper ?"
"Zine or Copper? No ma'am,"
said the astonished man. "What
leads you to suppose l had such
names 2"
Excuse me-" was the quiet re.
ply, "but | thought certain you
must be first cousin to a brass
foundry"
The man fell over two seats and
kicked a bird cage half way down
the car in his haste to get into the
smoker, while the young lady smil-
ed a gentle smile behind her hand
kercbief. 1t was a proof of the
old adage that a witty answer
turneth away bores.-[Ex.

In the above notice the Courier
takes pride in the fact that in the

half of the poll tax of that parish
for the year 1881 was collected
by the tax collector during the
four months Of that year ending
December 3lst 1881, being s4354
out of a total of 8095 polls, we
think that Vermilion can make a
still better Snoring.
1t is we'll known that owing to
the death of the former Assessor,
the assessment rolls of this parish
for 1881 were made cut and turn.
ed over to the collector at a late
date ; it is we'll known that owing
to great loss Of stock and short
crops, the taxpayers of this parish
have been much Impoverished
yet, in spite Of all this, Sheriff
Shaw has collected on the rolls of
1881, the sum Of $4,000 poll tax,
out Of a total of something over
$4,000, being considerably over
one,half.
