Just Like John.

A woman clad in deep mourning went
through the mensgarie yesterday, stop
ping to admire each of the animals IN
turn, and every now and then applying
her handkerchief assiduously to her eyes,
saws the Burlington Free Press. When
she came to the camel, it was evident
that she had come to stay. She sat
down on one of the posts that held the
rope and began to catechise the attend
ant.
ssThis is the camel, amt it?"
ssYes'm-and the finest specimen IN
this menagerie or in any menagerle In
the country.
"DoeII How that reminds me OF
John. John was always at the head OF
the heap. Now, do tell me some OF the
peculiarities of the camel-won't your
: eyes. ma'am. He has long neck" !"
"aJust like John He had the longest
neck you ever saw on man. Gracious
I wish you could have seen the standing
collars he used to wear. Come, now, tell
me something more"
ssThe camel has the largest natural
hump Of any yanimal in existence"
8 "Just like Johnl You never saw 8
man that could hump himself as John
could, when he had a mind to-"
"The camel is alsoa great traveller. :.
Just like John! l never could keep
him at home nights" :.
sHe is called the ship of the desert"
"Just like joint He could get more
pie aboard than any other man in Yer
mont"
Just then the lion began to roar, and
the woman started on the dead trot tosee
how much meat they could eat at one
meal. There's one thing hain't' told
you about this animal-the most impor-
tantof ALL"
"What's that?" cried the woman,
turning round in her tracks.
ssHe can 60 for weeks without drink
ing drop Of water" :;
aJust like John |" exclaimed the ex.
cited female. "You never saw q man"
But the lions began to roar so loud
that her voice was lost to the attendant
of the camel; and he forgot all about
the little incident, until later in the day
when he saw female in black in front
of the monkeys cage and heard her ex-
plain, by way OF comment on some re-
mark of the keeper

Don't fix the fence partly to-day with
a promise to do it better next week.
That time does not come until damage
to be regretted has been done.
Don't be content with half q crop
when little more labor will bring full
one.
Don't try to get something out of

Don't 90 off dissatisfied because you

Don't 20 fishing as long as the axe
