HE NEEDED PRACTICE.

Look here, Anderson" said a man, addressing friend, Il didn't know you would take such chances"
 "How so ?"
 "Why, the other night heard you make an assertion in the presence of sev. eral educated gentlemen-let me see, you said you could read the lliad in the original, when, in fact, you csuidn', read a sentence of Greek to save your life"
 You simply misunderstood me" Anderson replied. "This is what said confess that I am very much behind on Greek, but with practice could read the lliad.' Those are the exact words used"
 "Even then, Anderson, you took des. pera,e chances. You know very well tha, you might practice three mouths, and even then you couldn't read Creek"
 "Thats fact, reckon"
 "Well, then, you agree with me"
 "Oh, no. said that could by prac. tieing read Greek, and stick to it."
 "Yes, but how long would you have tc practice
 "Well, let me see. About ten or 6f- teen years, 1 reckon"

SEVERED.

P. C. L. writes: (" have organized a theatrical company, composed of anna teurs, and would like to give show in Little Rock. My company is a poor one, lsay in confidence, and fear that may experience trouble in securing a hall for second performance"
 Allay your fears. Little Rock has an excellent opera. house, lavishly built by a gentleman who has nothing to do with its management. The manager seems to be deeply impressed with amateurs. He opened his house with an am mateur troupe and Is likely to close 1t with one. If you are strikingiy bad, your engagement in this town will be great success, for as % many poor shows have visited this place, the people are now sadly disap- pointed if they discover merit in a play or an actor. If you have any ability whatever, conceal it while making ar- rangements with the manager, otherwise yoa may fail to make favorable impres- sion on him. If you grow worse in your acting, or if you can get worse troupe tAan you already have, do so and your fortune is made.

A RELIGIOUS AFFAIR.

"Thsre was very sad case in palice court this morning." said lawyer to hts wife. "A girl was arrested for stealing a fine lace veil. The woman who owned the veil came to court, and, with heart- lessness, persisted in prosecuting the poor girl. The judge, however, would not al- low himself to be influenced SO he re- leased the girl"
 "She did not prove that she was inno- cent, did she2"
 "Oh, mo-"
 "Then why did the judge release her p
 "Well, he said tha, he had no right to interfere with religious matters"
 Religious ma,ters?"
 "Yes, he said that the laws of the land grant to every woman the right to take the veil"
 The woman did not reply for several minutes. Then she said "l know a woman who married a fool I'm the woman"

BADLY LEFT-HANDED.

Two friends were at musical concert. One of them remarked:
 "The violinist 1 see is leit-handed." Yes. see, but not very badly, should think"
 Badly? Why, you don't mean to say that there are degrees in leh.handed- nessr"
 "Of course do."
 "l didn't know that2"
 It's fact, nevertheless. This fiddler seems to get along very we'll, at least he acts all right. Tell you what's fact, knew a man once who was so badly left. handed that he could't eat with his right hand"
 @Whatl
 It's fact. He used his leA-had for everything. Why, he couldn't sleep with his right-hand."
 "You are foolish"
 No, Pm stating fact"
 Couldn't eat nor sleep with his right hand ?"
 That's what said"
 @Whya"
 "Didnt have right-hand."

Mrs. Cauleton, who lives on the eas, fork of Homipy Greek, has returned from Washington City whisher she vent fsw days ago. Having seen 1t stated that any one could cali on the wile of a cabinet officer, Mrs. Csuleton called ca one. The old lady took out hef knitting and settled herself back for. . season of snjoy- able conversaiion. The Mrs Cabinet was astounded.
 {" would've brought you a few aigs," " said Mrs Caulston, "but the fact is we have had such pose luck with the chick ems that aigs air scarce. The gaps was awful this Iass spring ssd Ii did seem ths all the chickens would die. Let me know when the time comes and m go out and help you git dinner.
