A good story was recently told of the discount clerk in oaoof the Baltimore banks. Ho is a mat somewhat along in years, is a Quaker, and is possessed of all the characteristics of that peculiar religious sect. One day a patron of the bank came in and submitted a pile of notes for discount. The clerk looked them over in his deliberate way and re marked, “Isaac, if thee will have to have the money on these notes, Indorse them.” The patron complied, writing his name in a bold, free hand across the back of the promises to pay. When nearly through the list the good old Quaker gently expostulated: “Isaac, thee should bo more careful of thy ink; thee makes a dreadful waste in thy sig nature.” In indorsing the next note Isaac, who was not without the spirit of a wag, wrote his name so small that the old Quaker was obliged to adjust his glasses to see that it was correct. Finally, handing it back to the customer, he said, “Isaac, thee is a very careless man; thee should always dot thy i’s and cross thy t’s; the i in thy name, Isaac, is not dotted.” To this good natured rebuke the pa tron replied, “Not so. old friend; if you will observe, the i in question has a fly speck just above it, and I thought that much ink could be saved.”— Washing ton Hatchet. A Reserved Seat. “When I was once in danger from a lion,” said an old African explorer, “I tried si: ting down and staring at him, as I had no weapons.” “How did it work?” asked his com panion. lion didn’t offer “Perfectly; the even to touch me.” “Strange! IIow do you account foi it?” “Well, sometimes I’ve thought it was because I sat down on a branch of a very tall tree.”—Boston Globe. Discretionary Valor. Mrs. Bantham—James, I wish you would tell that big, ill mannered fellow on the other side of the car to quit star ing at me in that impudent manner?
