Two young clerks were wheeling
through the country on their vacation
recently. 1t was sultry day and after
u 20-mile spin over the dusty country
road their thirst demanded relief. .As
they came to the crest of little hill
q cozy farmhouse, with its great wind
mill, invited them and they made haste
forward. A man and two girls were
standing by the pump, which the wind
mill operated, and they instantly ac-
quiesced to a request for a drink,
the girls disappearing into lit
tie shed about 20 feet away.
One of the cyclists approached,
filed the bucket and, without noticing
the wire attached to the iron handle,
raised it to his lips. Suddenly he
dropped it with an exclamation.
whats the matter with you? Can't
you hold bucket o. water without
giving the whole surrounding country
ducking? Here, let me-" and his
companion sprang forward and re-
filed the empty receptacle. "Jericho!"
he exclaimed, clearing about dozen
feet in bound, what ails that thing ?'
A half-suppressed litter from the shed
answered him, as the two girls picked
up their skirts and fed toward the
house, leaving their companion To ex-
plain. The wire attached to the buck
ct led to battery and constituted a
device for the reception of tramps, but
the girls couldn't resist the temptation
ito give those nice looking fellows just
"ae snock.'
