an average from twenty TO twenty-One

The gain during the second year will

IRREPRESSIBLE jim.
Two Quaint Sayings Of a Virginia Cent?,
mans Yellow Servant.


Mr.. Smith, of Virginia. has valet
whose eccentrcities afford him ma
terial for some successful anecdotes.
Jim. who is of that shade known a.
bright mulatto,n has black silllen
curls and a smile that render him the
delight and torment of all the ..yaller
gals" of the city, and his temper is as
sunny as a day IN June. 1t Is Mr..
Smiths invariable habit TO discharge
his valet once II week in futile en-
deavOr 10 persuade Jim that he does
not own his master body and soul; but
as the amiable African sweetly ignores
all such ebullitions. and always re-
turns the next morning, placidly un-
conscious of any unpleasantness. the
habit serves only rs relief to his
masters overcharged feelings. On
one occasion he carried Jim down into
unfamiliar wilds in Georgia and pur-
posely lost him, after the fashion in
which one rids ones self OF obnoxious
cats. and for two weeks after his re-
turn reveled in his freedom. At the
end OF that time, in answer TO his bell
one morning. Jim put his head in the
door, and asked, in his usual tone:
Mis- Sniff, did YOU ring fer me?'
and then his master resigned himself
TO his obvious destiny. His only con-
ISOLATION Is that u repetition of Jim's
sayings sometimes helps him over
shoals Of silence At stupid dinner
party. Here are two of them:
Ono morning, Jim having been in
structed TO rouse Smith al q certain
hour, woke him with eXclaiming:
Law. Mis- Sniff, dono he'd such bad
luck dis mawnin. | done clean forgot
TO wake YOU up time you tOle me-"
Smith groaned. Jim, you are too
trifling 10 live. ! wish you would die
III never get rid OF you in any other
way
The darBy set about his duties with
out resentment, and said contempIa-
lively, a few moments later. with an
evident desire TO be obliging: Il dom
mind dyin', Mis- Sniff; It's stayin'
dead 80 longs what henders me"
Jim and young African companion
we're one day fishing from the wharves.
Ills friend missed his footing, fell into
the water and was drowned. Jim's
grief was 50 uproarious that a sympa-
thetic bystander inquired if the
drowned boy was a relation. NO"
said Jim, through his tears; '.he
warn't no relation. but be mOut's well
been-he he'd all de bait. ."-HaTler'
