A Farmer brushes a Fop.
Pick Me Up.

Pick Me Up.
A fashionably attired young gentleman
dropped into London restaurant one
afternoon, and, after calling for refresh
ments, turned to the company, and offered
to bet on a variety of different subjects,
but found no takers. CHANGING round
eontemptuously, he remarked:
"You don't seem to have much sport,
gentlemen; but am bound to make bet
on something. l don't care what it is, or
how much it is, Anything you like, from
shilliugs worth of cigars to a hundred
pounds Who's on
In one corner of the room sat plain
old gentleman, who looked as though he
might be farmer. He said:
'Well, sir, l am not in the habit of
making bets, but as you so particularly
wish it | don't mind having little one
with you. I'll bet you half-a-crowns
worth of cigars that can pour a quart of
treaele into your hat and turn it out a
solid lump of candy in two minutes.
"Done !" said the masher, taking off his
hat and handing it to the farmer
1t was a splendid article, that might
have been new the day before. The old
gentleman took the hat, and requested
the attendant to send for a quart of treacle
'snone of your golden syrup, but the cheap
SORT; that's the stuff for this experiment,
said he, handing over sixpence to the
waiter.
The treacle was bought, and the old
gentleman, with grave and mysterious
countenance, poured it into the dandy 5
hat. while the owner took out his watch
to note the time. Giving the hat two or
three shakes with Bertram-like adroitness,
the experimenter placed it on the table
and stared into it as if watching the pro
cess of qualification.
''Time's up, cried the dandy.
The old gentleman moved the bat.
"Well, it done seem to be hard yet,
said he in a disappointed tone. I've
missed it. some how or other, this time, so
| suppose I've lost the bet Waiter, let
the gentleman have the cigars-half-a-
crowns worth, and here's your money.
''Deuce take your cigars reared the
masher, you've spoiled my new hat, and
you must pay for it.
THAT wasn't in the bargain, dryly
answered the old gentleman, "but I'll tell
you what I'll do, "I'll let you keep the
treacle

on his hind legs, and giving an astonished
bray. started down the road at break
neck speed. The aged colored man gave
a look of astonishment at the doctor, and
with loud awhoar started down the
