Quick Printing.

The boys tell a good joke on Capt.
Frost, OF this city, and on inquiry We
learn that there is more truth than
poetry in it.
A very old and religious gentleman
of this city called at the LEDGER Of
fee while the foreman was out and
made his business known to Capt.
Frost, who was ''subhing' for one of
the boys. He showed the Capt. an old
and time worn bible that had been in
his family for several hundred years.
He said ne wanted it reprinted.
Frost looked at the book, then at the
man, and replied, "It will cost you
$25; call in an hour and get your
bible as reprinted" Frost slipped
down to Sallee & Brooks, bought a
bible for IS cents, come back, gave it
to the old gentleman, received his
S25 and sent the old man away
happy. And he went down into the
postoffice remarking, ''the LEDGE
can't be beat on anything. They
printed a whole bible for me in an
hour."
