STORY CORNER.

At certain college there was a case
OF hazing which was as harmless as it
was amusing. In the Freshman class
are two students whose names are Cane
and Abel, hitherto strangers to each
other The Sophomores got them to-
gether on the green and addressed them
somewhat as follows: "This age long
quarrel between you two gentlemen,
Cane and Abel, is disgrace to You and
scandal to the world and it ought
to be made up as soon as possible. We
desire you to shake hands and be friends
once more" The Freshmen complied,
and were kept at it for several minutes:
then they were told that shaking hands
was not enough and were hidden to kiss
and hug one another.
While on a trip through the South
some time since a Philadelphia salesman

sigh. She's growlin an pesterin' fo'
