‘* No,” said the pensive maiden, ‘it is impossible that this engagement should last longer. I thought I loved you once, but I know better now, Can you forgive me?” “Well, I should say not," hissed the young man, making agrab for his hat,‘ For more than a year—all for you—I have not been to a picnic; I have played no billiards; I have not taken adrink ; I have turned the cold shoulder on every girl that has tried to flirt with me, How am I going to get paid back for all the fun I have missed ?

Boston An Exp A RICH old farmer, who had the reputation of being ‘as close as the bark to a tree," had sent his only son to a country academy to be educated. “You shouldn't have sent him there!” remonstrated a friend. “What's the matter with the place ?" asked the old man, testily “+ It’s too little and poor, You ought to send him to one of the big colleges, and give him a liberal education.” “Liberal! Liberal!" squeaked the farmer excitedly. “Why, man, ain't it liberal enough when I allow him twenty-five dollars a month for his schooling and living ex- penses ?"— Youth's Companion.
