We clip the following wheeze from an Indiana journal. It is not origi nal with that paper. We print It for two reasons: (1) We have not printed it be fore, in spite of its familiarity. And (2) it ought to keep the De mon Illustrator busy for a couple of days. Voici le Wheeze: A woman who was too economical to subscribe for her home paper sent her little son to borrow the copy taken by their neighbor. In his haste the boy ran over a four-dollar stand of bees and in ten minutes looked like a warty summer squash. His cries reached his father, who ran to his assistance, and failing to notice a barbed wire fence ran into it, breaking it down, cutting a handful of flesh from his anatomy and ruin ing a fiv'a-dollar pair of pants. The old cow took advantage of the gap in the fence and got into the cornfield and killed herslf eating corn. Hear ing the racket, the mother ran, up set a four-gallon churn of rich cream into a basket of kittens, drowning the whole litter. In her hurry she dropoed and broke, past all hope of m'nding, a twenty-five dollar set of false teeth. The baby, left alone, crawlW through the spilled cream and into the parlor, ruining a twen ty-dollar carpet. Juring the excite ment the eldest daughter ran away with the .hired man, the dog broke up eleven setting hens, and the calves got out and chewed the tails of four tine shirt.
