HIS MISTAKE.
There ID. Such a Thing as a Funny
Man being too Funny.
[Chicago Tribune.l

lChicago Tribune.l
The early riser was out watering his
grass when the funny man came along and
stepped on the hose.
The early riser turned around to see
what had shut off the water so suddenly,
and the funny man laughed at him.
SECT of that hose" exclaimed the early
riser.
"Oh, don't mind me-" said the funny
man. "Go on and water your grass"
Then he noticed that the nozzle was care
lessly pointed in his direction.
"Herel Point that the other wayl" he
cried.
The early riser glanced down at the noz-
zle and his face lit up with pleasure.
Amusing to shut off mans water,
isn't It'll" he asked.
"But, my dear SIR" expostulated the
funny man, ~ didn't"-
ats intensely funny" said the early
riser; you'd better get off that hose"
But can't" said the funny man.
"Don't you see the MOBILES pointed right at
me, and If DOB
"Oh, well, Pm in no hurry" interrupted
the early riser. "If you enjoy it don't
know that have any reason to object"
He sat down on the railing surrounding
his grass plat and rested the nozzle on his
knee, still keeping 1t pointed toward the
funny man.
81 say" said the latter, eff you'll turn
that the other way I'll get off,"
"Oh, I wouldn't put you to SO much
trouble" said the early riser. ENJOY
yourself"
The early riser held the nozzle between
his knees while he took out cigar and lit
It. The funny man watched him puff -
for moment. Then he said:
"See here, old man. my legs gettip G
stiff"
"why don't you shift legsi" asked the
early riser disinterestedly.
The funny man tried it, made slip. and
the stream almost reached him before he
could get his foot on the hose again The
early riser chuckled.
"Say, I'll break your headp' craed the
funny man excitedly.
"All right" returned the early riser
carelessly. "But be careful or you may
slip off the hose again"
The funny man glared at the ca tly riser
amoment and then said;
"If i were as mean as you are I'd go into
the pawnbrokers' business"
"If / were as funny as you are" said the
early riser as he leisurely pulled his cigar,
ard hire out to burlesque company"
The funny man tried to walk along the
hose to get farther away from the nozzle,
but the water spurted out little with
each step and he stopped. Then he got
desperate, stepped off, and started to run.
The stream caught him in the middle of
the back.
When he got out of range he turned and
shook his fist at the impassive early riser
and made some terrible threats.
And the early riser muttered as he began
watering the grass again:
"Funny that a funny man can't take a
Joke on himself"

Merely a Test.

The barber had adjusted the towel,
patted his victims face and proceeded with
the opening scrape. 1t sounded like the
noise Of street sweeper.
"Dc de razah hu'ht you, sah2" the barber
asked
"Hurt mel should say so. It about

He procured another, and gave a long
scrape.
'How bout dat one" he asked.
"That hurts worse than the other"
Still another was brought out and this
time a wall announced the result.
'Dat'n hu'hts yer, too. do It"

Didn't "oueer" the Preacher.

A clergyman well known TO bunalo peo-
pie says that when the Lord made him he
forgot to put any pegs in his mind on
which to hang the names of acquaintance.
He can remember faces, but not names.
He became pastor of a large church few
months ago, and after discharging his
duties long enough to know his sheep by

whom he knew we'll, but whose name he
could net, for the life of him, recall. Wish

his ignorance, he said;
"Let me see, ah-how do you spell your
namep
To which she replied, with reproachful

by rejoining:
"Oh; then you don't spell it with yr''
