THE COLORED MAN AS A
BANKER.
‘ It B©etns that he ran short of fund*
and *©t bia #iU to work to replenish
his pttrso, and elrspga to say, for a
peniless mm, lie proposed to start a
bank. He started out among his
country friends to ‘ take up” the batk
and get them to take stock, saying:
’Do you know why the white folks
con always get money when they
want it and we colored people can’t?”
“No we dou’t know ?” “Wei! I has
Lund it all ofltsince I been living in
tnwii ” Well how is it Uncle Jim ?”
“It’s ju-t ’cause the white folks have
banks. When they need any money,
tiny just checks >a the banks and
gets it. We colored people always
will bo poor and hard run for money
(ill we h tvo banks like the white folks’
In this manner he soon talked up a
bank fever anu ng the negros. When
ihey naked: But bow are wo to wau
ge it ? We don’t know how (o ’tend
to these things like the white folks,”
lie replied: “I has done learned ull

after the bank gels a good start you

seventy or eighty dollars among his
friends, who were much elated at the
idea of holding Block in a knnk. Jim
turned to Franklin aud lent out his
banking luuds to tbe grocers for flour,
bacon, sugar, coffee, whisky, and
other luxurios of life—in fact, ho lived
like a banker as long as the seventy
dollars last'd. In the courso of time,
some of the stockholders being “bard
up” for funds, came into lown to
check on tbe bank. Imagine their
surprise when Jim vevy coolly said to
them: “Tlio bank is done broke.”
‘Why, how is this? Didn’t you toll
us you was gwino to manngo it just
like tbe while folks, nud we would all
have plenty of money ? Now you done

“Well than said tho man, walking

HOW IT HAPPENED.
She I'd him to o sofa, and in a deep
boss voice called him her soul's idol,
and inquired what his monthly income
was. Seeiiifi his gaze fixt on her boa

"Darling, I see you notice my largo and

you ihe reason of its unusual siz".
When I was quite a child I was playing
on papa’s cellar-door; it gave way; and
1 was precipitated down into the base
ment, and caught by the mouth on a
projecting mett hook, which ripped up
my f >c* and extended tny mouth several
inch's.” With his eyrs full of sym
pathetic tears, he rose from the sots,
and replied, as he made way toward
the door, “my angel, you are perhaps
mistaken. Probably in the excitement
of that awful moment, you left your
mouth down in tbe baceinent and ac
cidentally brought up the cellar. We
shall meet again in a better world”
