A citizen of France who has an invet-

when he bethought to himself the I'M

that of bidding "ze folks" goodby.
After shaking his fellow boarders
cordially by the hand and wishing them,
with incessant bowling. "ze verree best

and advancing, hat in hand, with q

"Ah, madame, I'm going to leave you.
You have been verree amiable to me,

Thereupon the Frenchman was max.
ing his exit, when he was suddenly
called back by his landlady, who inter
estedly inquired, why, Mr.. c.,
you have forgotten your latchkey. -. Mr..

understanding his interrogation. YES
