Dante Rossetti,s Practical Joker.


One day Howell picked up a treasure
In the form of a piece of old blue
Nankin. He invited party of friends
to come and admire it, and Rossett
sHrreptitiously carried it home with
him and invited the same party to come
and view an equally fine piece of china
in his own possession. But Howell
had his revenge. Guessing what had
happened, he found his way to Rosset-
it's hiding place, took away the china
and put another dish in it's place.
When the party assembled Rossetti
was challenged to produce the china.
He returned to the dining room with
the package and began to carefully re-.
move the wrappings. AS the dish be-
came uncovered a curious puzzled ex-
preston came over his face, and when
it was entirely exposed to view he stood
still in blank establishment. For few
moments he was silent; then his pent
up feelings burst out in wild cry:
"ConfounG it! See what the spirits
have done!'
Every one rose to look at the dish. A
dish it was certainly, but what dish!
Instead of the beautiful piece of Nan
kin that was expected there was only
an old delft thing, cracked, Clipped
and discolored through the numerous
bakings it had undergone.
