A Hopeless Case.

THERE is colored preacher in
Richmond, Va, whose favorits
theme has ever been infant bap-
tism. So frequently were his SER
mons based upon this theme that
his congregation at last could en-.
dure them no longer. Accordingly
deputation appointed by the
flock waited upon the minister and
in plain words advised him that,
in the event that he could not find
something else to say, they would
find some one who could. The
dusky divine promised to meet
their wishes, and on the next Sun
day announced as his text, Adam,
where art thou?"
This text, brethren, detained
the minister. "csn be divided into

ON SNOW REMOVAL.

TO THE EDITOR am sur
prised that New YORK was tied
up by the recent snow storm.
There are many simple ways OF
removing snow. give few
that your Street Cleaning Depart
ment could adopt sno do away
with all this fuss.
One simple plan is to station
a sufficient force OF men on the
streets when the snowfall begins.
Each man should be provided
with a hot tin cup. in which he
can catch each fake as 1t falls.
When the cup is full OF melted
snow, the man can empty II
quickly and resume his job as
catcher BY employing retired
baseball players, not a fake OF
fnow would be allowed to reach
the ground Simple?
Another excellent plan would
be TO hire an army OF trap shoot.

A flower which grows luxur-
iantly in this latitude is the tur-
nip. which makes a very pretty
table decoration. Contrary to
usual belief. it does not grow in
a mashed condition, and while on
this topic we may mention that
the potato does not grow fried.
Nor does hen lay boiled eggs.
And yet again. herring are not
naturally picked, although they
live in briny water.

Another and even simpler
plan: Set up ten million electric
fans and blow the snow storm
away from the city. This is, per.
haps. the neatest plan of all.
However. allowing that the
snow has been allowed to fall in
the streets. there should be no
great trouble about its removal.
Merely dig the streets from UNI
der the snow and when 1t falls
into the hole thus made replace
the streets on top Of 1t.
