A I'K'TIKK-I'l/.ZI.K VICTIM
These things set me fcerfectly rrasy!
Oh. where Is that left knee of his?
For goodness' sake, don't push me, Malsle,
I'm shaky enough as It is!
Don't lock m me! That makes me nervous.
I know you axe standing behind!
In future, I dear Heaven, preserve us
From fads of this kind!
Now this is the fat lady's forehead,
Or is it the grandfather's nose?
Why. It doesn't 111 either! how horrid!
I'm sure I don't know Where It goes.
I believe it's the hand of the baby-
But no, that would make him have three!
It would fit in this Utile space, maybe—
Why, yes. It's a tree!
S'me secrets of practice revealing,
I've learned a Jew tricks of the trade;
The tints of the wall, floor and celling
Are always of similar shade.
If you find a straw ten trimmed with grasses.
You may make up your mind it's not that;
It's a broom—or a Jug of molasses—
But never a hat!
Oh, where Is that funny shaped drab bit?
I had it a moment ago:
I thought it was part of a rabbit-
It's the roof of the distant chateau.
Now, Is that a calico curtain.
Or the old fellow's legs that are crossed?
Of one thing I'm perfectly certain!
Some pieces are lost!
Oh, me! I must rest for a minute-
Why, there Is that yellow bowl now!
How lovely the nosegay fits In It—
And I thought all the while 'twas a cow!
Well, certainly her cheek is missing
From her forehead right down to her chin!
Oh, no. here's the young man that's kissing;
Hie face Just fits In!
With this ruler I'll push it compactly;
Now— is that long, roundish bit,
Shaped somewhat, although not exactly. ■
Like a wheelbarrow, backward and split?
Yes. that is the end of his truncheon!
Oh! the glands in the back of my neck!
But If I get through tilts by luncheon,
I don't care a speck!
—Carolyn Wells in Harper's Weekly.

J. Inwood of the University M. E.

bi.in. Miss Anna Bchaffer and Miss
Eula Fleming. '""* -
The beginning of the romance which
preceded this marriage dates back
seven years to the time when the bride
was just entering young womanhood,
and her father owned a large walnut
grove, Miss Ella and her sister, Eula,
after picking walnuts one day were
resting and watching their father and
a friend sacking the nuts for ship
ment. .Mis. Vannoy, the friend, select
ed a i in" large walnut and handing it
to Kiln said, "Write your name and
address on that and drop It in the
sack, ami the fellow who finds it will
, be your sweetheart."
is it strange that months after this,
I when all had forgotten the Incident,
that the young woman should have re
ceived a letter bearing the postmark,
I "Spartanburg, 8. <".." and the story of
finding the; walnut by a young man
who bad purchased the nuts for hie
grocery was revealed?
The correspondence thus begun was
