To show the importance of the vowel
"e" in all writings, one needs only to
refer to the above heading, an inscription
over the decalogue in a country church.
It remained unread for two hundred
years. Insert the letter "e" in the proper
places, and it will read: "Persevere, ye
perfect men; ever keep these precepts

At a public school the children were
training for the annual flag day celebration.
One boy, in order to show good
reason why he should take a prominent
part in the ceremonies, said that he had
a real gun; another had a pistol; a small
girl had a flag, and so on.
Finally, one tow-haired lad of six came
up to the teachej, and stood waiting for
her to see him.
"Well, what Is it?" 3he asked.
"I has a union suit," he said.?Youth's
Companion.
"What do you make a week?" said the
magistrate to an Italian organ-grinder,
who charged a man with breaking his
musical instrument the other day. "Twenty

sort o mothers they must he that has to
use a club!"
"Is this the Adams House?" asked a
stranger of a Bostonian. "Yes," was the
reply. "It's Adam's house until you get
to the roof, then it's" eaves."
"I is"?began Tommy, when his teacher
interrupted him. "That is wrong: you
should say, I am." "All right," said Tommy.
"I am the ninth letter of the alphabet."
"There was a young lady of Niger,
Who smiled as she rode on a tiger;
rney came back from the ride
With the lady inside
And the smile on the face of the tiger!"
"To-whlt! To who"! the young owl cried,
Till his father spake in the gloom,
"How many times must you be told
You ought to say, 'To whom*"?
