A MODERN MUNCHAUSEN.
Two Very Vivid Tales Concocted by a
Georgia Romancer.
"R~tier" in LaGrange (Ga.) Graphic.


"Rtstier" in LdGrGnge (GaD Graphic
Years ago, when guano was first discov-
cred as fertilizer, an old friend of mine
sent me a bottle full to experiment with. l
didn't think much of it, but one day while
in my garden planting some cucumber seed
| thought of the guano so took it along
with me into the garden and sat down on
the ground, scratched a little hole in the
earth, put in my guano, and on it placed
my cucumber seed, covered both carefully
with the soil, and while sitting there but a
few moments | noticed the earth over the
seeds begin to move, and at the
same time the young cucumber plants
made their appearance. 1t was such
a strange occurrence that ] sat perfectly
dumbfounded, forgetting everything else.
The vines began to spring and grow eff
like magic, and when | began to raise I'D |
found my feet entangled with the vines.
l however forced myself to a standing
position. By this time l was com
PIE ely enveloped with the vines
made for my knife and succeeded in cut
ting myself Loose, and made my escape
But what astonished me most was the fac
that when | got over the excitement and
went to return my knife to my pocket, |
found my pockets full of young cncumbers
which had formed in my peck ts, sine.
which time have had no use for guano.
A WARM WEATHER TALE
Contrary to expectations, | have had an
other encounter with the liar.
This time he tells of some warm weather
to go as a companion to the others. He led
off as follows:
"Oh, | know you fellows think | am ly-
ing when | come over here and give you
little of my experience. but | amt. That
hot weather l told you about is nothing TO
compare with some we had last year. Ole
day it got so hot that | went to the
we'll and dcew bucket of water, and
saw little trash on top, so took the
dinper TO throw it out. Well, sir, il
was so hot that the water never hit the
earth, it just evaporated," and he cast
kind of a -have-lost-my- laSt-suspender
ton look over tho landscape. "But that is
not what | started to tell you. We have
got lot of sand out in our neighborhood.
Well, it got 50 hot that the sand all melted
into glass and run all over everything, and
then the wind began u blow, and it just
bowed all that glass into lampchimncys
and other things, and"
But this was all the mob could stand he
beat hasty retreat, and dog that got in
his way In a short time ! saw him in
store asking how many 2]d cents fans he
could get for cents.
