An exchange tells of the three stin-
giest men on record. The first will not
drink water unless it comes from a
neighbours well; the second forbids his
family to write anything but a small
hand, as he considers it a waste of ink
to make large letters, and the third man
stops the clock at night to stop wear
and tear on the machinery. All of them
refuse to take a newspaper for the rea,
son that it is q terrible strain on their
spectacles to read.--Kansas Mirror.
We know q man in Opelousas who is
too stingy to buy a clock, but bothers

read and write, because this would be
a waste of time in his estimation. Such
