A practical joke was per.
petrated on two Of our young

night this week. The young
men in question had an en-
gagement to call on u certain
two young ladies', and thought
IL would be the proper thing
t. take along u box of candy.
Unfortunately for them they
left the box in one OF the
lodge rooms while they were
making their toilet. Some oi
the boys thought they would
put up u job on the couple and
put u rubber snake in the box
of candy and tied it up care
fully IN its original condition.
When the young ladies re-
moved the lid from the box Of
C indy his snakeship Topped
out on the. table, and the
screams of the young ladies'
|cJuld be heard all over tie
neigbborhood. "Then came
"a sound aS Of l%hreshing wheat
or butchers rendering steak"
and from the appearance aud
condition of the young men
The next morning, they will
be careful To examine all
boxes Of candy they present
to young ladies' in the future.
