Roadside Wit.

He who matched wits with the au-
thor of ''The Ancient Mariner" had In
doed lively task before him, for Cole
ridge was never caught mapping. The
poet was so awkward horseman that
ais riding often attracted comment of
anything but complimentary nature.
One day he was riding along the turn
pike road In the county of Durham
when a wag who met him fastened
upon him as an excellent subject for
sport. Consequently he drew rein and
said in an impertinent drawl:
my graceful friend. did you happen
to meet tailor on the roadw
HT'm inclined to think did," said
Coieridge meditatively. Il was not
sure at the moment, but he said some
thing about my meeting a goose far
Their along the road"
The wag put spurs to his horse, and
the poet logged calmly on his way.
