The Way 1t Was Spelled.

A lady who buys provisions regular
ly of dealer in Boston was q little puz,.
zled over one of the items Ia her month.
~ bill. The item was as follows: TO
10. psalmon, 30 cents"
Ii suddenly occurred to the LADY, thar
she had purchased three pounds of
salmon on the date given, and the.
meaning of the mysteriously spelled
word was apparent to her.
Greatly amused, and feeling welh
enough acquainted with the provision
dealer to tell him of the little laueh
she had enjoyed at his expense. she
said, when she went to pay the bill. A
Mr.. Blank, had quite laugh over
the way some one in your establish,
ment spells salmon" 4
When the item had been potnteS out
to him, Mr., Blank said, in a tone of
contempt for such ignorance:
That's the work of a new bookkeeper
I have. I'm ashamed to have such
bills sent out, and l shall have to speak
to him about it, He is good book.
keeper, but he's got to learn to spell X
he stays in my employ. Let me correct
the bill"
Taking pen, Mr. Blank drew seyerab
lines across the word and wrote above
it;
''Sammon. (
There ma'am," he said, eomplacent-.
ly, handlns back the bill. 'I'il teach
that oookkeeper how to spell salmon.
when he comes in. or tell him to find <
new place. Tit Bits.
