Once on a time a rustic swain and
damsel lived near each other, says the
st. Louis PeDubtic He became smitten
with her charms, but had not courage
to tell his love. At length, finding she
was becoming an object OF attraction
to other swains and that he was in
danger OF losing her, he was induced
to invite her to walk with him to a spot
where lovers are fond of rambling, up
a shady lane. His heart was full, but
his lips were closed; he could not bring
his courage to the popping point, while
she poor thing. cast down her eyes and
was perfectly mute, though she under
stood for what purpose he had brought
her to that lonely spot. At length
bird began to sing on Johns side of the
road and lucky thought struck him.
"Bessic,' said he, with a gentle
squeese of the arm, "dost hear yon
bird?"
''Ay, lad" she answered.

"Whi>t, Bessy," cried he; 'it seems

They walked on in silence until

OF the road.

bird?'

just Like His Grandfather.

Congressman John Allen of Missis-
sippi was the central figure Of a pleas
ant group of southern gentlemen at
the Hoffman house yesterday, says the
n. Y. Star. The witty southern rep
resentatiye is always ut his best when
telling an entertaining story. In talk
ing about the amusing incidents con-
nectcd with political campaigning in
his congressional district he related
several stories in the negro dialect,
among the best of which was the fol-
lowing:

:Aunty' Allison, an aged negro woman
her big, black, good natured face all

When DR.. Cyrus Edison, of the board
of health. was medical student he
was, like most medical students, full of
lie and fun, says the n. 7. Herald.
He lived with his father in the annexed
district, and this story is told on him:
He was much troubled by the growing
Of an early rising rooster owned by q
neighbor, which used every morning to
take his place under the young students
window and raise such a racket that
sleep was impossible.
The fowl was favorite of its owner,
and every effort to buy him or ger rid
of him in any way was futile. Young
Edison puzzled his brains not little to
find way and at last struck bright
idea. Early one morning, just as his
enemy had started his pipes, he armed
himself with sharp lancet, crept
up behind the unsuspecting fowl,
caught him, and in less time than it
takes to tell it had severed his vocal
chord.
1t made the coons laugh thereafter
to see the rooster get up on the fence,
flap his wings and go through all the
motions of growing with never sound
coming from his bedk. DR.. Edison
never had any trouble in sleeping after
that, though.
