How the German Blinded Him.

from the fHlidueIpHld llIntS.
]. Campbell White, secretary of the
laymen's mission movement, during his
work for missions had had some
queer experience, but one he had in a
mining camp in Montana some years
ago gives him much amusement when
he reverts to the story.
There was a German immigrant i'm
the camp, who had received a letter
from home. He was illiterate and no
one in the camp understood enough
German to read the letter to him. He
was Of course overjoyed to learn that
Mr.. White could read German.
AS the missionary began the man
from the banks Of the Rhine clapped
his hands over Mr.. Whites ears.
What are you trying to do?" ex-
claimed Mr.. White, after he had been
able to free his ears from the fellows

He Was the Goat.

There was a goat In our town
And he was wondrous thin, .
And yet wherever food, was he
Was always butting in.
And when he found the food was gone
He never acted blue
He merely ate the dishes and
He ate the table, too.
He ate a family washing and
The clothesline at a bite;
And hen he ate a milestone. just
To whet his appetite.
He might have been there eating yet,
But that's an open question
He ate a box Of breakfast food
And died Of Indigestion!

Odds On.

FTOm III-BItS.
A Durham farmer was travelling to
London to consult a lawyer, when the
fear struck him hat he had left GER
tain important papers behind. He made
a hurried search of his bag.
IF 1 did leave those papers," he re-
marked, Tn a fool"
The search proceeded, and a moment
later he said:
II believe it'll turn out I'm a fool"
Just as he was examining the last
bundle Of papers he exclaimed:
well, I'll bet I'm a fool"
A man on the other side of the COM
partment lowered his newspaper for a
moment and said, slowly and deliber-
ately:
"Oblige me, sir, by laying a little
money that same way for me-"
