ing the street. 1t was in the direction
of a beer saloon.
About the middle they stopped, as II
animated by the same object, and asked
each other what was up.
A very nimble little object was dane
ing about in painful proximity to the
legs of one of the party.
"What is it?" asked one in a CHASTITY
whisper.
Pm betting it's a tarantula," was
the reply.
In closed order they attacked the
venomous thing, but for a long time it
eluded their efforts. Finally one of
them succeeded in grounding it under
his boot heel.
Placing it at the end of a long stick
the party marched in procession to the
nearest light.
The tarantula proved to be merely a
feather that had been wantonly blown
about by the zephyrs.
And still the young men emphatical-
ly claim that their only beverage that
evening had been water.
