A peripatetic pedler of genuine
$2.50 razor for fifty cents each,
“just to start them,” on the cor
ner the other day had quite a
crowd of “cullored gemman” list
ening to bis word painting and
genera'ly interesting them in his
wares grow eloquent and said:
“Old Father Times has rolled
around the cycle of seasons and
brought us in sight of ‘possum and
taters’ once more.”
Here one old darkey nudged
himself closer to the street orator.

“ The man who don’t like the
succulent marsupial all browned—
the lean and the fat so blended
and running into each other form
a sort of animal mum, with big
round yams precipitately piled
against his reeking sides, making
one ambrosial result, is fit tor
treason, strategems and spoils.”
The old darkey had gotten near
er by this time and exclaimed sot
to voce, “dat'e de God’s truf,”

“Fr r this odoriferous memory,”
continued the speaker, “the fel
low whose pulse is subject to no
irregularities or whose olfactory
nerves register no aberations has
traveled a long distance across a
trackless main and found it a
horribly dreary affair.”
The crowd had increased and all
eyes were aglow at the sound of
the words and they universally ex
claimed. “Ain’t it so ”
000
“A nice baked possum, stuffed
with sage and onions bath a fair
sepulchre in the grateful stomach
of the judicious epicure—and for
such a tomb his oppossumship
might be content to die.”
The old darkey could stand it
no longer and moved away saying,
“Look hyar, white man, you mus’
«ho rely be a nigger .”
