Two English costermongers were pushing their carts along, when one of them picked up a torn sheet of newspaper. As he stopped and scanned the page the other called out impatiently: "Aw, come on! Wot ye tryin' to do? Ye cawn't read the pyper." "I can so read the pyper! If ye don't believe me I'll show ye." And he read off a few simple words. The skeptic pointed to a word ana demanded: "Now, wot's thot word?can ye tell me?" "An' I can so." replied the reader; "thot's category." "Category, is it?" sniffed the other; "an* 'ow do ye tell wot such a long word may mean?" His friend puffed with importance. "Well, I'll tell ye. Ye takes hit hapart, an' ye finds the meanin' hof heach part an' then ye puts hit together hagain." With a dirty index finger he pointed out the syllables of the word. Now, cat. Ye knows wot a cat his?" The open-mouthed listener nodded. "Well, then, next comes 'e. Now that won't be no she cat; hit's a 'e cat?see?" Another nod was the reply. "Well, next his g-o r-y. Thot spells gory; thot means bloody. = So there ye 'ave hit?hit's a bloody torn cat, ye fool." c f A Philadelphia lawyer has an s _ eer ? ? ? - I onice Doy wno is obliging, but l ^ not very particular regarding his j facial appearance. < One morning the lawyer no- ? ticed some telltale egg stains i about the corners of the boy's mouth and, thinking a hint j might do some good, said: "George, did you have your eggs 1 fried or boiled this morning?" 4 "I didn't have eggs for break- i fast this morning." said George; 1 "I had eggs for breakfast vester- t day." < I w.

The i treet was crowded with darkies, ? who were forming in line for a i parade. The Northerner was j rurious to know what it was r ibout, and questioned the darky t learest h.m. ] "What's the occasion for the ? jarade?" he asked. c The darky grinned at the f Northerner's friend, and replied: c 'It's easy to see dat dis genul- s nan is from de Norf.
