Japanese Revenge
A story ia told by Tiungh. its Ma
Japanese annals, which rhows ihaiiirnr
of hi* restraint, the *everity with which
small dvlimpienoie* ere punished, end
the impunity allowed to revenge. At
intervals port* ere established along the
public road, end a guard set to enforce
tbe interdict against the (leaning of
women. One of these in the mopnt
Fnkone, a short distance1 from Miako,
on the road of Yc?bl?>. An inhabitant
of Yeddo, nnwed Fivosnvemon, a wid
ower, with two chifflVeh, a boy and a
girl, wan called^ to a distance on business.
He era* poor, and knew not how
to provide for his children in hi-? ab?.
tence ; and this law would not allow
of hif taking. the girl with hint. II**,
howerer, - resolved upon a stratagem.
MRU dressing ui.? girl in boy*s clothes,
passed the guard at Fakone unsuspected.
lie war lejoicing at hi? success
when M m?n vftho knew what children
he had, joined him, congratulated him
on hi* good luck, and asked fur something
to buy drink. The alartnevl
father offered a trifle. The man de
rounded a turn beyond his means. A
qnnrrel ensued, the man ran back to
tho guard, and gave information of the
trick that had been played upon them.
The yhnle guard wero thunderstruck
If the informer spoke the truth, and
the affair should be discovered, all
their lives would be forfeited ; yet it was
unavoidable to send a party to apprehend
the offender, and thus to bring
upon themselves the dreadful penalty
The commanding officer, however, resolved
to save himself by another trick.
He delayed the party to be detached
in pursuit a sufficient time to allow a
messenger with a little hoy to nveiiake
the offending traveler. The ni9?senger
found Fiyosayemon and hit children
taking food at.an inn. He told of the
information thai had been given, of the
pursuit ar.d danger, offered the hov as
temporary substitute for the girl at the
examination to ccme off, and told the
father thai when the falsehood of the
charge should I.e proved by loth the
children appearing . io be bovs, be
might taiily fly in o such a rage as to
kill his accuser. The plan was of
course approved. The dilatory gua'd
soon arrived, surrounded the house,
seized upon Fryosayemon and the children,
and g'adlv announced that tbev
were both boys. The informer declared
thai some imposition had been prac
ticed. w liicli the nr-rusul iiwliiriiinili
resenting, drew his sword and cut ff
the informer's head. The guaul de-,
dared tlint such a liar had only Tret
his just deserts, and returned to tlreii
posts, while the traveler took his danglt
ter and went on his journey.
On a warm vnniner'a day, throe men
t wrere brought before a fair, round I>utch
magistrate, accused of drunkenno?s.?
His honor, having premised with a
hearty-swig of cool punch, began with
the first :
M You rasenl ! do you kiltv or pe rou
not kttty ?'?
44 Guilty." '
" Vnt y?" i?it dhrunk on I*'

"Vat! git dhrunk on blackstrap,

The second culprit being questioned
in like manner, an to guilt or innocence,
likewise owned 'himself guilt v.

" Sling."'
44 Vat ! you git dbrur.k on sling, you

? The bumble bee is one ov naturV se
krets. They probably have a destiny
tew fill, and are probably necessary, if
a fellow only knew how.
They liv apart from the rest of mankind
in little ciicles numbering about
"J* or 80 souls.
They are born alront haying time,
and are different from any bug I know
ov; they are the biggist w hen tliey are

in this respekt.
' Tlreir "ptincipl bizziness is making
poor honey, but they don't mako enny

of a whole sutnimsr'n work, but there's
is one thing about a bumble bee that
boys alt*us watch diedIn I clos and that
iz their helm.
1 bad rather not hare all the bumble

the city ov Jerusalem, than to hav a
bumble hit me with his helm when he

They are different from other vessels,
the helm alwtiz minds the humble bee.
A ooon atojy i? told of a boot bl?ek
whose energies were taxed by the hng?shoes
of a |>ritate who ju*l returned
from the war. The little fellow, kneel

a comrade and exclaimed, *' Lend tne a
