said:

Yes, sir. ~

be saved?"
"Just so"

You won't? Don't you want me

"No, sir-no, sir! I wouldn't
waste five minutes to send you
straight to heaven"
"Why not?"
"Why not? Why. sir. folks have
been going to heaven by the mil
lion for thousands of years, and

A BAD SPELLER.

Two or three years ago there
lived in the oil country a promi-
nent oil producer who was notori-
ously bad speller. In a letter.
among other errors, he spelled
water with two t's. A party of gea-
tlemen were discussing this peculi-
arity in the bar-rocm of the Collins
House. Oil City, one evening, when
the poor speiler himself came in.
'Hello!' said one of the party, a
corpulent gentleman, now remotely
connected with the New York Pc
troleum Exchange. we were just
talking about YOU
SIS that SOP was the reply. And
what We're you saying?'
why, some OF the boys claim
that you ale the worst speller in
seventeen States
They do? / think / car spell
about as well IS the average pro-
ducer.'
Ill tell you what I'll do With
you, said the first speaker, III bet
the champagne for the party that
you can't spell water
All right, replied the producer.
and he stated 10 spell the word,
'w;a-t-e-r.' That's the way I spell
water for money be quietly re-
marked, but when ] spell it for fun
| sometimes use two t's.'
The corpulent gentleman paid for
the wine, and the silence became so
great that you couldn't have heard
house faAdowL.
