"Did you ever see old man Bower
sox?" asked one. snow, Bowersox
was the nearest-sightel man l ever
saw. He used to have the delirium
tremens, and would have the biggest
fights with demonstrators, green
monkeys, pink rats and that sort Of
thing that you ever heard of. One
day he was having q liie-nnd-death
struggle with q whole menagerie,
and it was taking dozen OF us to
hold him. Somebody sent for his
wife, and the minute she entered the
room she yelled:
"'Take off his spectacles!'
eve hadn't thought of that, but
the minute we took them off old
Bowersox heaved n sigh of relief and

"That was q curious case," said
another, "but no more curious than
the case of my old friend Brnyfoele.
Brnyfogle was great dreamer. He
used to say that it was his greatest
delight to go to bed and dream OIL

BIunted his Dignity.

Fountaine, of Narford, is name 81
worthy associations in the minds OF
Norfolk men, and one which must be
familiar to all readers of Swift's cor
respondence, but its present holders
latest achievement has certainly not
added anything to its luster. Mr.
Fountaine, of Narford Hall, is a JUS
tice OF the peace, deputy lieutenant
and master of the West Norfolk fox
hounds, and he appears to have been
under the impression TINT these &C
cumulated dignities entitled him to
the privilege OF having an express
train stopped whenever he pleased
for his especial convenience.
The station master at the little
station of Eastwinch not seeing
things in this light, Mr.. Fountaine
stepped out at once upon the four
foot way, and by gesticulating and
throwing his arms aloft contrived to
stop the train for himself. The driver
not unnaturally inferred that some
thing serious was the matter until he
pulled up. on which Fountaine coolly
climbed into a first class carriage
and gave his word to proceed. This
curious escapade has imposed on the
magistrates of the Swaffham quarter
sessions the painfnl duty Of fining q
brother justice and deputy lieutenant
eos, and binding him over to keel
the pence. The punishment cannot
be said to err on the side of severity
