A Versatile Excuse.

On my way to church one morning
| passed two little newsboys who
stood beside a third, watching him
work devastation on big, red-cheeked
apple. At last one could no longer
control the craving that came over
him as he covetousy osserved the
demonstrations of gastronomic pleas
ure with which the eater greedily EN-.
Sellished his repast.
'Plaze give me wan boite-jist
wan he begged.
Nav" was tle answer, interspersed
with noisy "chavnks" and maddening
long-drawn intakes of luscious juice:
nav. Me NAV said | dassn't."
Quick as wink the suppliant saw
through the willy subterfuge and re
torted:

Retain Much of Danish Speech.

John Ackworth, an English dialect
novelist who has made a special study
of the dialects OF Lancashire, York
shire, the east coasts and also of the
Danes, shows that the Danes by their
early landings and sojournings in
England have influenced the language
of the east coasts of Britain to an ex-
traordlnary degree. and that the
Danes and the British, in spite of APP
parent differences, are one practically
in speech and language as well as in
the relationship of blood. so strong
is the English of We east coasts OF
England impresnated with Danish"
John Ackworth once said. that | am
sure that Il fisherman from the
east coasts of England were to be
wrecked on the shores of Denmark,
and he would only speak in his true
native dialect, that fisherman would
be able to make himself understood"

Not mike" ponahue's Picture.

Col. Mike" Donahue of the Tenth
New Hampshire was somewhat fono
of drink. After the war, the Tenth,
wishing his picture, commissioned an
artist to do the job. After the paint
ing was finished, the artist, seeing one
of the veterans OF the Tenth, an Irish
man, called him in to ask his opinion
of the picture.
The old Irishman walked up to the
easel, scrutinized the picture, and was
about to put his hand on the canvas,
when the artist cried out: Don't
touca it! Don't touch it! It's me-
dry"
Not dhry. Net dhrv," shouted
Pat. "Then, be jabers, IT'S not Mike

Chief Baron O'Grady, a British jur-

summary way in which he disposed OF
matters in his court.
