An old colored man was standing at the
corner of Eleventh street and Sixth atenu#,
grinning to himself and not interfering
with auybody, when a drunken man stag
gered along. The sight of the other seemed
to enrage him and he hit out, knocking the
negro down.
The old fel'ow stumbled to his feet and
four teeth fell into his hand. The blow
had .caught him fairly in the month,
knocking them out.
“I’ze in luck,” he cried, counting them,
“one, two, three, four. That makes four,
this ia Eleventh street and my son’s forty-
fdur years o' 1 today. That’s 4-11-44. If
that ‘gig’ doesn’t win I’m an old black
hoodoo man.”
And hastily shaking hands with the
drunkard, who seemed amazed at the turn
affairs had taken, he started on a foot race
for the nearest policy shop to play the
“gig,” his face beaming with delight.-

A Sarcastic Reply.
A certain doctor in northern Maine Is
noted for his love of hunting, and he is
reckoned a pretty good shot. During an
epidemic not long ago a well known lum
berman had the misfortune to have sev
eral of his men quite sick, and one of them
being in a dangerous condition the lum
berman started in haste for this doctor.
Now onr medical friend is sometimes quite
slow in getting ready for his trips, and on
this occasion after being called he was un
usually so. Suddenly the thought came
to him that, as he was to go so far into
the woods, he might see some game, and,
stepping to the door where the nervous
lumberman was impatiently waiting, he
inquired:
“Say, don’t you think I better take my
gnn along?”
“Gun! No necessity!" was the excited
reply. “The man will be dead before you
can get there.”—Lewiston Journal.

Some time ago a troopship was return

there was an old lady who bad a favorite
parrot, which she placed under the especial
care of one of the sailors. On going to at
tend to Polly one morning he was surprised
to find the poor bird dead, and, knowing
how very much upset tho-old lady would
be to hear of the death of her favorite and
not feeling equal to imparting the sad in
telligence himself, he employed a brother
tar, who was famous for his gentleness in
matters of that nature. Going up to the
old lady with a very sad face and touching
his cap, he said:
“1 don’t think that ’ere parrot of yours
will live long, niarm.”
“Oh, dear,” said the poor old lady.
“Why?”

thire was no sense in it. Tne young man
who has a family dependent upon him can
make no better investment than to have

then the insurance comes in well for the

is a proitclion; it is ao investment. In
