DELICACY OUT OF SEASON
Farmer Absolutely Unable to Under
stand the Possibility of
Ice in July.

We are so accustomed to having
things "out OF season." and especially
to the cutting and storing of ice for
use in the summer, that it is hard to
put ourselves in the place of the sim
pie old farmer told of by writer in
the Toledo Blade.
In the summer Of 1900 a party Of
surveyors was working through the
state of Arkansas, surveying and To-
eating the Midland Valley road. One
day the surveying corps stopped at q
farmhouse and shouted for the farmer.
The Arkansan came out, and the
surveyors asked him if they could get
a drink.
Certainly boys" he said. "I'll give
you the best I've got, and the best I've
got is buttermilk."
THAT will be fine," the surveyors
said, and the old farmer gave each Of
the gang glass of buttermilk.
TITS mighty good" said one Of the
surveyors to McLoud.
Yes, indeed" McLoud replied, "but
1t would be better if we had some ice
to put in it"
Turning to the farmer, McLoud
said, "Have you any ice?"
'Teei" shouted the farmer, tugging
at his whiskers. ice! Who ever
heard of ice in July?"-Youth's Com

day young deacon walked past his
house leading a new horse.
"'That's fine horse, Deacon the
old fellow shouted. Did you buy him

"'Yes,' said the deacon. Then. as
the other came nearer, he added:

And There Are others.

The cook had been called away to a
sick sister, and so the newly wed mis-.
tress of the house undertook, with the
aid of the maid, to get the Sunday
luncheon. The little maid, who had
been struggling in the kitchen with a
coffee mill that would not work, con-
fessed that she had forgotten to wash
the lettuce.
"Well, never mind, Pearl. Go on
with the coffee and I'll do it," said the
considerate mistress. Where do they
