A Trne Fish Storj.
A country hotel's guest went forth to
fish. He splashed himself with brook
mud, tore his clothing and hair in un
derbrush, and at the close looked like a
volunteer at the close of Bull Eun. At
night he strode up to the hotel and ex
hibited thirteen trout to the veranda's
occupants, and related how easy the
trout came to grief, how he climbed
fourteen trees to unhitch the line, and
how inferior the result was compared
with what he usually accomplished.
At that moment a boy came up, well
out of breath, and exclaimed: "Mis
ter, ma says I can't sell yer them fish;
they's promised to another man ; here's
ver money."
