that city:
“There among the inhabitants of one ward,
a man 76 years old, who isa native of Eeat
Bohun, Persia, and who is a believer'in the
Mohammedan religion. He is familiar with
all the oriental and European languages. He
is now engaged in making mathematical instruments.A widow ‘having four children, was called
dren, as well as her own age, and in answering, the following scene ensued.
Census taker—“Now madam, I have your
hame, please tell me your age.”
Lady—‘I am 32 years of age.!
Censes taker—“What is the age of your
oldest daughter,
Lady—'She is 28 years old.”
Census taker—“Ffow old were you when
she was born?”Lady—{Very Crusty)—«I was 22 years
old.”
Census. taker-—“'Then madam, that will
make you 50 years old,”
Lady—“I don't care, I amonly 35.”
ing the census taker that he “had no right to
ask such impertinent questions.” '
In another ense, the census taker came
near getting struck over the head with a rolling pin in the hands of ‘a woman, because,
asked her if she had given in all according to
her best knowlege and belief. She looked
upon such a question as a doubt of her integrity, and thé census taker had to leave in
haste.
An Irish woman, ‘When told that he dedesired the name and ages of all in the héuse,
wanted to know “if it was for-wart” She
continued—“Don'’t take James, for God's
sake, for he is lame in one leg, and could not
shoot.” t
