A Mustache for rwenty-lve cents.

Some weeks ago the young gentle
man who represents the REGISTER Of
fee in the capacity of devil" saw an
advertisement in newspaper IN which
it was stated that if any person would
send twenty-five cents to the adver-
tiser he would send by return mail a
preparation guaranteed to raise a mus
tache in two months time. Our devil
has long had a secret ambition to raise
fine, luxuriant dark brown mustache.
He therefore quickly sent the money
to the Massachusetts, man who made
the guarantee, and in due time the
stuff arrived. 1t looked ike salts.
According to directions, our devil dis
solved the stuff in water and applied
the decoction to his upper lip. Every
morning and every evening he would
grease his lip faithfully, and in the
meantime he kept an anxious watch
for the hirsute adornment. Up to the
present time there has not been very
strong growth-about as much fuzz as
is observable on half-rpe peach hav-
ing shown itself-but our fac totum
does not despair. The two months is
up next Monday, On that day he
confidently expects the mustache to
bloom forth in all its glory-te come
with rush, as it were, for he can't
think the Massachusetts, man would
cheat him. We confess that we, too,
are looking forward to next Monday
with much impotence.
Stanley says he only has one objec-
ton to having his mustache come all
at once: He has a girl over in Mary
land, and he Is afraid she won't know
him with whiskers.

At Bakerton.

At the little town OF Bakerton,
There Is a public school;
And many girls and boys are there,
Under Mr.. Engle's rule.
Now Mr. Jesse Engle is very proud to say
That ne'er a time has be been turned out
On the eve before Xmas day.
But on one Thursday evening
The rumor got about
That the scholars around Bakerton
Were 10 turn their teacher out.
The teacher caught the whisper,
And 10 himself he spoke:
III study to Outwit them
And spoil their merry joke.
So after school ne stayed
And took the shutters of,
The BOYS hid In the bus ies
Laughing low and soft;
Ard lots OF pains me took
To spoil his scholars fun,
Little thinking that he himself,
Might be outdOne.
The BOYS lay still and listened
TIL they saw him go away,
Then came out OF the bushes
To work I'll close o day
Wren after all their work was done
They quickly stole away.
with Friday morning came the boys,
And opening the blind
Ill cTrpt III tnrou n the window
And fastened II behind.
Then al kept still! and waited
TIL their teacher came about,
To hear what he mgu say,
When he found hims II locked out.
AT last comes Mr.. Jesse,
Aud much 10 his surprise,
The tightly asteued hChUol-house
Stands before his eyes.
The school boys had outwitted him.
He found himself undont,
And We y much crestft len.
He silently slips on nome.
The boys stayed IN the schOol-house
Until the clock struck nn",
Then out they came with wild hurrahs,
And soon they for ned tn Inc,
To shout for MIR Jesse,
" no never bad been beat.
TIL the scholars around Bakertot
Played their trick 50 neat.
NV STOW now il ended.
Just one IN re NOrd 10 say,
Mr. Jesse must no. boast sgain,
since lat Xmas day. ID.
