"Brudder Jackson," said the colored preacher to a parishioner, "vo' wife done tell me she got religion and wants to jine J _ _1 ! ue cnurcu. "Yas, suh, dat's so," replied the husband. "Well, brudder," suggested the preacher, "Ise gwine to put her protestashuns to a test?de nex' time it rains, Brudder Jackson, you let your dawg get good an' wet and den let the davvg in yo' parlor and den you tdll me what yo' wife says. Den I will know whether Sis' Jackson should cum into de fold or not." Two telephone girls in different country exchanges were having a chat over the wires on the suhiect of drpss For fiftppn or twenty minutes they discussed the topic, from ruches to fur-* belows, and they were in the midst of accordion plaits when a strident, impatient, imperative masculine voice broke up the symposium. "Ten-four-nine two," the voice yelled. "Are you there, Sam?" Ah, at last! Hello, who is that speaking?" "What line do you think vou are on?" demanded one of the girls, indignant at being interupted. "Really," came the weary and digusted reply. "I don't know; but from the gabbling that is go ing on I think I must be on the clothes line." "Now, Willie," said mother, "you told me a falshood. Do you know what happens to little boys who tell falsehoods?" "No," returned Willie tremblingly. "Well," continued mother, "a big black man with only one eye in the center of his forehead comes along and flies with him up to the moon and makes him pick sticks for the remainder of his life. Now, you will never tell a falsehood again, will you? It is terribly wicked." The congressman had receiv ed some eight or ten applications for pea seeds from some constituents, and when more came he wrote: I am sending vou the seeds, but in heaven's name what are you doing with so much pea seed? Are you planting the whole state with peas? "No," came back the answer,] "we are not planting them; we I are using them for soup." "Don't seem to be a very good day for fish," remarked the man on the bank to the angler who had sat for four hours without a nibble. "Oh, I don't know," replied the fisherman calmly.
