L'ENFANTE TERRIBLE.

They were having some private the
atricals, and Mr.. and Mrs. links gave
the scene from the "School for Scan
DALI in which Sir Peter rates and re-
proaches LadyTeazle for her extrava-
gance and other shortcomings. Edith
Jinl1s, aged eight, was in THE audi
the entertainment how she enjoyed
her parents acting, she electrified
her hearers bysaying in tone of dis
appointments:
"Acting! They were not acting!
That's the way they're always going
on at home" Pitt Bits.

THE PROPER TUNE.

This story is told of an eccentric
Hastings parsom: One day, on visit
ing the belfry, he found a whitewash-
er whistling dance tune as he work
ed. The parson reproved HIM sharp
ly for choosing such music for such
a place.
BEG your pardon, sir,' said the
man, 'but I forgot where I was" and
then, to show he was sorry, he start
ed whistling the ''Old Hundredth."
His hand, however, kept time with
the music, and so the cold Hun
dredth'' made the whitewash brush
go wonderfully slow.
ooh, get back to your dance time, )"
the old parson shouted, cor the job'n
never be done. "-London Tit-Bits.

WITH THE JoKERs.
THE BET WAS OFF.

A CleaVeland man who has been
abroad this summer brought back
with him from London a clever story
of two coStermongers.
1t appears that the costers had
made a bet of half sovereign and
the drinks as to which could catch
the most fish. Accordingly, with the
drinks taken beforehand, they had
repaired to the river and cast their
lines. They sat there for something
like four or five hours without either
of them getting even bite. Finally
one of them imagined that he felt
nibble, and i'm his excitement he fell
into the river.
"Bet's off" cried the other coster.

TILE SHEPHERD AND THE SHEEP

A clergyman, famous for his beg
cling abilities, was once catechizing a
Sunday school. When comparing
himself-the pastor of a church-to a
shepherd and his congregation to the
sheep, he put the following question
to the children:
"What does the shepherd do for the
sheep?"
