To n diplomat who compiimented
him upon his sanxfroid. President
Wilson replied. with his dry smile,
that he tried to initiate the grave
digger. OF course this meant n
story. and the Prcaiien, sold It.
A certain srave-diggcr. he ex-
planned. had the habxit OF visiting
the cemetery every night about mid
night to see that all was going well.
Knowing OF this habit. some boys
decided TO play a trick upon him.
They dug n trench In dark spot
which their prospective victim al
ways crossed. and one Of them.
dressed In sheet. hid behind q
tree. At midnight the grave-digger
duly appeared, and as duly fell into
the trench.
The boy In the sheet at once
stepped forth and said in hollow
tones:
what are you doing In my
grave?"
what are you doing out Of it?"
the grave digger replied calmly.
