The cutting, of course, looked very mod ern, but this was easily remedied by rubbing in it mud and polishing it on tho grass.

"Thee has?" said Dr. Deacon, hold ing out his hand for the turtle. "Yes, sir," returned tho youngster with a very straight face. The good old farmer glanced at tho reptile just one second, and then burst out into a merry laugh. "Willie, theo darned fool," said ho, 'that turtle isn't half grown." -Philadelphia Record.
