Cooiey’s o’drst boy is a little too fond of playing practical jokes. The other evening he went up into the third stoiy back room, in which the hired man sleeps, and fixing a piece of stout twine to the bed clothes, he ran it down stairs into his own room, with the intent to remove the covers from the hired man as soon as that individual got into bed. The Cooleys had just taken down their winter stoves and they had the parlor stove standing temporarily at the head of the third story stairs. 'J he man discovered the strin“ just as he wasretiriifgand comprehending the motive of the intended trick he quietly untied it and fastened it to the stove. The hoy meantime had gone lo bed and forgotten about the string. But about ten o’clock Mr. Cooley, who was up stairs get ing apples in the garret, caught his foot in the string as he was coming down tire steps He fell, and j ulled *he stove after him, and Mie next moment, Cooley, a pan of apples and about foily pieces of stove, stove pipe, gmtes and brick being were rattling down the st.irs with a noise like a volley of musketry. As Cooley lay on tiie landing, with a pile of apples and cast iron heaped upon him, Mrs. Cooley and the boy, and the servants came rushingout to ESCertnin what on earth was the mat ter. As they approached, Cooley said; “Terrible, wasn’t it Y Awluilesi eatthquake we ever had in this coun t-y” “Was there a real earthquake?” asked Mrs. Cooley. “I diou’t let I a shake,” ‘■Didn’t feel it?” exclaimed Cooley taking a stove leg out of his shirt col lar, and brushing the soot from his clothes —diiin’t feel it? Why, my gracious! The liou-e rocked like a cradle. I thought she'd g clear over ev-ry m ute. I’s the woist stu ck I ever felt. Sent me ski) ping down stairs, with things a ruttling after me till 1 thought the roof had Dursted in. There’s something queer about these natu-al convulsions. The scientific men say tli t the shake always kind er move- i wave- from east t., west so if it con.es from the—Hello! what’s this?” exclaimed Cooley, discovering the twine wrapped around his leg. Who tied that string to that there stove ?” As be lookud around inquiringly, d his old by snddently mount upon the banister and glide swiftly down to the first floor, where he stood waiting for an offensive movt ment on the part of his fattier. Then Cooley leaned over the rail ing and, shaking his fist at him, said; You wi-ked little scoundrel! If you ain’t a candidate fur the gallows I’m no judge Y u come '-V litre and go to bed and to-monow I’ll tan vour hide with abed slat. You mind me?
