What Education VIII Do.

A railway company was erecting a
line of new poles along highway.
One of the men engaged to fill in the
dirt and clear up around the piles was
an 1rishman. He had not got beyond
his first pole, but stood bordering how
to dispose of the dirt, which had filled
the space now occupied by the pole.
His sense of the fitness of things must
have been strong, for he was averse to
piling the loose dirt around the base
Of the pole, as is the custom. A negro
wayfarer stopped for match, and the
Irishman asked his advice. IF I was
a-doin' dat job, I'd JUS dig hole bout
where you'ah standin' and shovel de
dirt into it. Much 'blige!" AS the
negro sauntered away, the Irishman

side of the chamber to the other, contin-
