"I wish you could taste the bread and pie I’ve seen my mother make; They are something like. and ’twould do you good Just to look at a. slice of her cake.” Said the smiling wife: "I’ll improve with ageâ€" . Just now I’m but a beginner; : But your mother has come to visit us. He called at the house and asked if she had any carpets to beat, adding that. he had been in the business for over twenty years. “How much to heat that parlor carpet?” she asked. ‘Four shillings.” “Why, that’s awful! There Was a man here yesterday who offered to do the job for 2 shillings." “Exactly. madam. but how was he prepared?” “He had a stick in his hand.” “I presume so. He intended to take the carpet out on a vacant. piece at land. didn’t he? “Yes, our yard is too small, you know.” Exactly. That is a tapestry brus- sels carpet. It is badly worn. He would make a great show in getting it out and in here. Out on the piece of land he would give your name to every one who asked who the carpet belonged to. Is that the way to do a job of this sort? A LITTLE HUMOR. “I take the carpet out through the back yard. I wheel it home. 1 beat it in a yard surrounded by a high board fence, and while I am returning it, all nice y rolled up and covered with a cloth, if any one asks me what I have I reply that it is a velvet car- pet for 224 Blank street. If no one asks any questions I call at the houses on either side of you and ask if they have jusn ordered a new wil- ton. They watch me and see me come in here.” Mr. Brown keeps a boarding house. Round the table sat his wife, Mrs. Andrews the village milliner, Mr. Black, the baker; Mr. Jordon. a car- penter; and Mr. Hadley, a flour, fee and lumber merchant. Mr. Brown took ten dollars out of his pocket and handed it to Mrs. Brown with the remark that there was $10 toward the 320 he promised her. Mrs. Brom, handed the bill to Mrs. Andrews, the milliner, saying, "That pays for my new bonnet ” Mrs. Andrews in turn turn passed it to Mr. Jordan, re- marking it would pay for the carpen- ter work he had done for her. Mr. Jordon then handed it to Mr. Had. ley. requesting his receipted bill for . flour, feed and lumber. Mr. Hadle) ' gave the bill back to Mr. Brown. ~a\- ing that pays $10 on my boam.’ .u v . Brown again passed it .. ' >, Brown, saying that he had .. .w p ..d $20 he had promised. She m ..n paid Mr. Black to settle her tread and pastry account. Mr. Black hand- ed it to Mr. Hadley, asking credit for the amount on his flour bill. Mr. Hadley again handed it to Mr. Brown with the remark that it set- tled for the month’s board, where- upon Mr. Brown put it back in his lpocket, observing that he had not [supposed that a few dollars would go ”back so far. But suppose Mrs. ‘ Brown had sent to a mail order house :for her bonnet, then the $20 would have gone out of town and never .come back. The moral: Spend your I money at home.

There is an amusing story of ai Highland soldier who. while lying dangerously ill in Netley Hospital, expressed a desire to hear the bag- pipes once more before he died. The hoSpital doCtor agreed, as there were only fourteen inmates of the ward and none of them were serious cases ‘ A regimental piper was found to play the bagpipes, and for a long time he paced the ward playing tunes of the homeland. The next morning the piper called at the hospital. “Well ,doctor,” he enquired “how is my 'countryman this morning?” “Very well indeed,” replied the doctor. “He went to sleep after your enter- tainment, smiling happily, and awoke this morning a new man. He will rapidly recover now.” “Good!”said the piper. “Good!” "But,” added the medical man, “the other fourteen are dead Go: up on the right. side of the bed!
