An Incident That famed the inquis1-

There is not SO much fun to be got
out of the inquisitive man. He is ger
orally n mere nuisance, but OCCASION
ally he furnishes food for merriment.
A certain down east storekeeper was
SO extensively inquisitive that it was
determined to teach him a lesson.
Among his failings was desire to eY-
anime the contents of every package
which his friends deposited in his store
for safe keeping. He must see the in
side IL he had to break the package
open. One day man left a stout
leather bag, asking that no one disturb
1t. The proprietor walked around rest
lessly for awhile and then stopped
near the bag. Apparently no one was
looking. In reality all the store loung-
ers were in the secret and We're aax-
iously awaiting his next move. He
nervously fingered the cord that tied
the top Of the bag for a minute and
then quickly united it He had no
time to look in before the contents
came forth. They consisted of a score
of large and spirited hornets. and the
way they lit on all the exposed por-
tons Of that inquisitive man was a
caution. He shot out of the store at a
pace that would have done credit to a
Splinter. They say that for year
