There is village in New England
which clings fondly to the customs of
the past and has small regard for limo
vations. Not long ago an old resident
died. The lawyer who went up to set
tie the family affairs stayed overnight
at the little inn. He was a dyspeptic
and ever cautious about his food
Therefore he looked searchingly at the
waitress as she stood at the breakfast
table the next morning to greet him.
Im-er-obliged to be very careful
Of myself" he said solemnly. My
diet is extremely limited. What sort
of breakfast food have you? That is
all l take in the morning except dry
toast"
We have apple, squash and mince,"
said the girl, regarding him in kindly
and sympathetic fashion. You can
take your choice or have all three if
you uke.'-Youth's Companion.
