SHOOED THE SKUNKS.

One afternoon some years ago l was
one of a group sitting on the porch of
country store down the state A
lively political discussion was under
way, when the speaker broke off in
the middle of sentence and there
was general wrinkling up of noses,
the speaker remarking that some one
had evidently stirred up polecat
The scent became stronger and
stonger, and around the corner of the
building came little Dutchman
almost on the run As he headed for
the porch steps every one jumped up
and 'tshOoed'' him back, the store
keeper coming out on the porch and
warning him not to come in.
That man was the center of the
scent of three skunks, and he did not
know just what to do with it all, and
was 50 excited he could not stand
still. He was over from the old
country but short while and talked
very brokenly, but as he stood out in
the road first on one foot and then the
other, we gathered from his broken
English and eloquent gestures that
while coming along the road he saw
three cats dey call de pole, sitting
side by side on the rail fence. He
found good stout club and started ir
to kill the lot, and he gave us te
understand he stayed in the fight til
the last one was laid out. No one
was inclined to dispute him, ever
though he was not carrying hi
trophies around by the tail. The seen
was all the proof we required, and h
had that. From Forest and Stream
