Signs of the jay abroad He has a
quarrel with the ticket agent before
getting his ticket; he says good by to
everyone in hailing distance before
getting on the train, and then says the
same thing through the car window;
he leaves his final instructions with
the solemnity and importance of maxi
ing a will; he asks the conductor and
all the passengers around him twenty
different times if they are sure he is on
the right train he puts up the window,
only to put it down again and then to
hoist it up again; he finds out all about
his neighbo business; he piles his
valises around him like barricadc: he
prepares to take nap, but cant 60 to
sleep for fear some one will rob him;
he begins to collect his baggage and
sits nervously on the edge of the seat,
for fear he will not have time to get
out, half an hour before the train
reaches his station, and finally, at the
end of an hours journey, when he
reaches his destination and gets out,
he rnshes back after the train has
started to pick up something b" had
forgotten. The jay is a great trav-
eler.

"Bill Dryface," the squire said, twas
the life and dread of the town. He
could mimic any man that ever lived.
He'd sit here in the store, night after
night, and make fun of people, taking
'em off to the very life, until we was
just sore laughing at him, and every
man scarf for fear his turn would
come next. But one night, right in
the middle of the fun, when Bill was
giving us limitations of the new Baptist
preacher, Teller happened along and
seemed attracted by the noise. He
stood at the door and watched and
listened for about ten minutes, and
then he up and took Bill off himself:
right to the very life; beat anything l
ever saw in my born days"
''Show man?' queried the tourist.
NO" said the squire, deputy sher-
if; took him off so completely he amt
never come back since; won't either,
for about two years yet"
And then there was heard in the
dusty Office the voice of a man laugh
ing long and loud, and with repeated
cadences of infectious mirth like unto
the laughter of a man who enjoys a
good thing when he hears il, and who
can't hear it too often. = was the
squire. - Burdette, in Philadelphia
