This is a perfectly splendid liver

expel the air from the lungs in little
puffs, like a donkey engine. Push out
all the air you possibly can, drawing
the abdomen in and up as far as it will

Once month it was the custom OF a
clergyman in a neighboring town to
catechise the Sunday school. Among
the questions asked was, "Who was
Esau?' Several responded, but none of
the answers was satisfactory, and, as
the pastor was about to tell them, one
little fellow said, I think I can tell you
what he did"
"WeI," said the pastor, tell me
what Esau did"
sEsau was the fellow who sold his
copyright for a mess Of potash. Phil

therefore were free to express
their opinions. One remarked to

friend doesn't inform this old fool

can't speak for sour apples.''
And the deaf man catching the
word "speak" supposed that the
