GUNSAULUs' ANCIENT HORSE.
IN Equine Purchase of the Chicago
Divine in His Youth Which Dis
gusted His Father

Once upon a time Rev. Frank Gunsaulus,
the popular preacher, was a poor circuit
rider. He travelled from town to town, lift
ed over the roads in farm wagons and board
ed round at the houses of the deacons, and
returning occasionally to his fathers old
farm to spend few days. His father, so
the story goes, was rough old chap of the
uncut diamond sort, with vocabulary
more expressive than elegant.
Well, at one time young Gunsaulus found
himself in possession of enough money to
buy a horse. He thought it would be better
to ride his own animal around the circuit
than to borrow transportation. 1t was a
sorry-looking steed this, but it answered
the purpose, and, what was more to the
point, it was cheap. So after he had bought
it he rode it home. His father was in the
barnyard when he came in and he looked
critically at the animal
Where did we git that boss, Frank" he
asked
II bought him cheap, father" said the
young preacher.
Hes a sorry-lookin' critter, must say"
said the father.
''Well, father" said Frank, "you remem-

WHAT THE COLONEL WANTED.

WHAT THE COLONEL WANTED.
1 was in one of the village stores to
make purchase when a colored man
came in with bottle in his hand and
was greeted by the merchant with:

man, amt your
Eyes, sah," was the reply, IAN de

"Oh! l know what the colonel wants,
and yo' wait minute and I'll draw a
quart of whisky"
The man didn't seem quite satisfied
as he waited around, and presently he
said:
"Mistah Walker, Kurnel Thompson

"Of co'se-of co'se," interrupted the
merchant. 1.-The colonel wants a quart
of the same, and I'll be through in a
minute. Mighty good brand, that, and
l knew he'd send for more"
The colored man walked to the door
and back, and by that time the mer-
chant reached out for the bottle and
said:

the right spot, and 1 wonder he didn't
send for gallon"
"Mistah Walker, de kurnel he dun
said to me"
"Of co'se-of co'se. Be careful of the
bottle going home"
The bottle was taken to the rear end
of the store and filed, but when it was
handed to the colored man I noticed
that he looked perplexed and embar-
raised. He started off after bit, but
was back in three minutes to ask:
"Mistah Walker, is it whisky in dis
yere bottle?"
"Of co'se-of co'se, yo' stupid niger"
"But Kurnel Thompson de dun said
to me"
"Lawd save us man, but go on! The
and yo've got it, and now git along
home"
The man went out and mounted a
mule and started off, but after going a
quarter of mile he turned and came
back. AS he dismounted at the door
the merchant caught sight of him and
exclaimed:
"Befo' the Lawd, but Col. Thompson
has got the stupidest niger in all the
land! What's the matter, boy?'
''Mistah Walker, Kurnel Thompson

Then she haunted the display windows and
