Mapby years ago, when printed music was dearer than it is now, a plain, quiet man, evidently from the country, went into a London music shop and asked to see a certain. book of tunes. The clerk laid before him an oblong volume with two tunes ‘on a page, a book familiar to old time choir singers. The old man drew out of his coattail pocket an ancieut yellow fife and, open ing the book at the first page, began to play softly, turning the leaf with care ful fingers as each page was finished. The clerks, very much amused at first, grew weary of the droning noise after a time. and one of them, waiting till a tune was ended, ventured to say politely: : ““Do you think you will take the book, sir? Does it seem to suit you?” The fife was lowered, and the player, looking over it at the youth in mild surprise, said gently: “I cannot tell. I have played only half the tunes,” and placidly turned another leaf. Hobson’s Choice.

As a bracer Jesse Moore never fails : Be Was Slow, a Lincoln used to be fond’ of telling a story of a lawyer in a western town who desired the nomination for county judge. On the morning preceding the evening on which the county convention was to meet he applied to the livery stable keeper in his village for a horse and buggy in which to drive to the county town, 16 miles distant, where the convention was to be held, “Give me the best and the fastest horse you have, Sam,” said he, “so that I will have time to go around and see the boys before the convention comes fa” The liveryman, however, was sup porting a rival candidate and gave the lawyer a horse that outwardly appeared perfect, but which broke down entirely before half the journey was completed, sc shat when the@andidate arrived the convention had adjourned and his riva! had been nominated. On his return to the stable late the following afternoon, knowing that it was. useless to resent the trick played upon him, he said to the owner: “Look here, Smith, you must be training this horse for the New York market. You expect to sell him.to an undertaker for a hearse horse, don’t you? Well, it’s time wasted. I know from his gait that you have spent days training him to pull a hearse, but he’ll prove a dead failure. Why, he’s so slow he couldn't get a corpse to the cemetery in time for the resurrection.” ven. Ae Owe = ssaneiauaunnsmsiemeee That Entertainment.

Wyllie is here from Forest City. As a bracer Jesse Moore never fails : Be Was Slow, a Lincoln used to be fond’ of telling a story of a lawyer in a western town

who desired the nomination for county judge. On the morning preceding the evening on which the county convention was to meet he applied to the livery stable keeper in his village for a horse and buggy in which to drive to the county town, 16 miles distant, where the convention was to be held, “Give me the best and the fastest horse you have, Sam,” said he, “so that I will have time to go around and see the boys before the convention comes fa” The liveryman, however, was sup porting a rival candidate and gave the lawyer a horse that outwardly appeared perfect, but which broke down entirely before half the journey was completed, sc shat when the@andidate arrived the convention had adjourned and his riva! had been nominated. On his return to the stable late the following afternoon, knowing that it was. useless to resent the trick played upon him, he said to the owner: “Look here, Smith, you must be training this horse for the New York market. You expect to sell him.to an undertaker for a hearse horse, don’t you? Well, it’s time wasted. I know from his gait that you have spent days training him to pull a hearse, but he’ll prove a dead failure. Why, he’s so slow he couldn't get a corpse to the cemetery in time for the resurrection.” ven. Ae Owe = ssaneiauaunnsmsiemeee That Entertainment.
