Faye Verna. who has bou- quet of Gentian, Myrtle and Arbutus in her hand, Sister Ready. who thought 1t would be very appropriate to have her nicture taken making tatting, and added she. T can Doolittle on my new Duane, who stood back of her. was heard giving a conundrum to Carter- bury Belle.
 Why said he. .ls Samantha good HouseWffe?'
 She would have given a Silver Six pence if she could have answered it correctly, but having only a woman's reason, which Brother Duane said was no answer at all, they turned to Etta Barber and propounded the conundEum to her.
 '"To be perfectly Frank" she replied, q think it is because she uses Bon A1ni.'
 The Cornerites laughed so heartily at her answer that Henrico, a Cuban lad who was singing Rainbow to the accompanim of his guitar. stopped his performance and glared angrily at the crowd.
 Jim, trying to emulate Brother Duane, said: T have just thought of conundrun,'' and, turning to Eliza Jane, who was a Farmers Wife, said Why does Hulda like to live in the suburbs of GIenwood?'
 Because she receives letters from The Rural Delivery man." promptly replied Eliza Jane.
 The Cornerites again gave vent to their merrtment.

He next approached Nat. FT trust you are Married and Happy" he said. That's rather personal question" Nat replied, and he cut the interview short.
 Just then Abijah Hard was heard to exclaim that he was as hungry as a. !, for GE "a a c ] cross as a bear she was so hungry.
 Are you hungry, Chriss- Gross ?" said Mater.
 T should say was" she replied. 'T thought you were never going to Budge from this wharf"
