Bush....... 11 66 27 50 LSI* W.J. 30 00 boy in PecPs 3un gives the following account of how himself and a chum gave his father the Royal Bumper Degree: “We went upstairs and told pa to come up pretty soou and give three distinct raps, and when we asked him who comes there, he must say, ‘A pil grim who wants to join your ancient order and ride the goat.’ Ma wanted to come up.ltoo, but we told her if she came up it would break up the lodge, cause a woman couldn’t keep a secret, and we didn’t have a sidesaddle for the goat Say, if you never tried it, the uezt time you nitiate a man in your . Mason’s lodge, you sprinkle a little kyan pepper on the goat’s heard before you turn him loose. You can get three-times as much to the square inch of goat. Well, we got all fixed, and pa rapped and we let him in, and told him be must be blind folded, and he got on his knees a-lafting, and I tied a towel around his eyes, and then Ufned' him •round and made him get down on his hands also, and then his back was right towards the closet door, and I put a buck-beer sign right" against pa’s clothes. He was a-laff- ing all the time, and said we boys were as full of fun as they made ’em,, and we told him it was a solamii occasion, but we wouldn’t permit no levity, and if he didn’t stop laffing we couldn’t give him the grand bumper degree. Then everything was ready, and my chum had bis hand on the cloeet door and some kyan pepper in. his other hand, and I asked pa in low base {ones if he felt as though he wanted to tarn back, or if he had nerve enough to go ahead and take the degree. I warned him that it was full of dan gers, os the goat was loaded for beer, and-lold him ha yet had time to re trace his steps if he wanted to. He said he wanted the whole busineea, and we could go ahead, with the menagerie. Then I said to p& that if he had decided to go ahead and not blame us for t the consequences, to repeat me the (Mlowing : . ’Bring forth the Roval Bumper rad let him BumpT Pa repeated the words and my chum sprinkled the kyan pepper on the goat’s mustache, -and he sneezed once and looked sassy, and he see the lager beer goat raring up, aud he started for it just like a cowcatcher and blatted. Pa is real fat, but he kn£w he had got hit, and he grunted and said : ‘Hell fire ! what are the boys doin’ ?’ and then the goat gave him another degree, and pa pulled off the towel and started for the stairs, and ao did the goat, and ma was at the bottom of the stairs listening, and when I looked over the banisters pa and ma aud the goat were all in a heap, and pa was yelling murder and ma was screaming fire, and the goat was blatting and sneezing and butting, and the hired girl came into the hall,! aud the goat took after her, and the crossed herself just as the goat struck her, and said: ‘Howly mother, protect me!* aud went down, stairs the way we boya slide down hill, with both bands on herself, and the goat rared up and blatted, and pa aud ma went into their room and shnt the door, then me and my chum opened the front door and drove the goat out. The minister, who comee to see ma three times a week, was just ringiug the bell, and the goat thdoght he wanted to be nishiated, too, and give him one for luck, and then went down the sidewalk blatting and enees- ing, and the minister came in the parlor and Mid ha waa stabbed, and then psi came out of hie room with his suspenders hanging down, and aa he didn’t know the miniater wae there be said com word*, and ma cried and told pa he would gu to Hadee sure, and /la said be did’t care,'he would kill that cussed goat afore he went, and I told pa the minister waa in the parlor, and-he and ma went down and said the weather Was propitious for a revival, and it asetum! as though an out pouring oi the Spirir was about to be vouchafed to His people, and none of them sat down but ma, ’cause the goat didu’t hit her, and while they were talkin’ religion with their mouths and cussin’ the goat inwardly, my chum and me ad journed the lodge, and I went and stayed with him all night, aud I hain’t been home since.” How a Bad-lpM Young Man Purchased a * . Pair el Garters. “Did you ever go shopping for women f ’ inquired a~sad-eyed young man. “No? Well, I did once, and I have had enough of it. You see, my landlady takes a motherly interest in me, and talks' to me iust os she would to her own son. You may think this is vei^ flattering to me, but I assure you it has its dis advantages. The other morning my landlady told me she lost one of her‘garters coming home from the concert the evening before, and asked me to get her a pair on my way down town. I thoughtlessly consented. As I came down the street I thought I would go into White’s. Having entered, I tried to get my bearings by the litho graphs on the walls, picturing all sorts of feminize harness in active service. As the lithographs began to grow more interesting, con cluded that I was in about the lati tude of garters, and halted at a counter presided over by a young woman with a mischievous eye. That’s where I got in to trouble. I felt my face gettiug red, but I firmly asked for a pair of garters, expect ing her to hand them out forthwith. ’What kind, please ?’ said she in the most insinuating tones. “ ‘Oh, wmething -pretty good,’ I replied, painfully conscious that my ears were blazing red. “‘But what style do you want?* she rejoined, evidently gloating over my misery. Then it flashed-upon me that there might be a hundred styles, and how was 1 to kuow what kind my landlady wore ? My first impulse was to escape, but the door was too far away, and, besides, my errand seemed to have been tele graphed to every one of thnee girls, all of whom were eyeing me. One of them had suddenly discovered that the counter needed dusting, and there she was, right where she could hear everything I said. I asked what styles were generally called for, and the youug lady began describing them with a roinuteuess that had only increased my embar rassment. There was the circular kind, she said, and the suspender garter attached to a waist belt, and jaoother kind that fastei^d- to the side of■» corset, and then took down a lithograph showing the manner of wearing that kind of harness. I was in a worse fix than ever, and I ment ally swore I’d do no more errands for a woman. Here she was, ex plaining all this toggery and belay ing tackle, aud expecting me to know what kind of standing rigging my landlady was fitted out with. I looked at her in an appealing way, but she wouldn’t help me out, and ihen an inspiration of genius came to me. ~‘W4iat kind weuld you be moet likely to lose off in the street V I asked in my most innocent tone. That girl with the duster must have thought of somelhiog funny just then, for she began laughing im moderately, and when I went out with a pair of circular elastics in, my pocket I felt that every girl in the store waa'iflsking fun of me, but I didn’t dare to look around. The next time I go shopping for a wo man I will do it by telephone.” ^ Senatorial Ptnoansl.
