“ My son,” said the wise father, deftly lay¬ 
ing the skate strap along the shrinking back 
of his howling son. .“ I’m doing this for your 
own good.” And as the lad jumped clear

me too good, clad;‘be not righteous over¬

A little girl has an uncle who has taught 
her to open and shut bis crush hat. The other 
evening, however, he appeared with an ordin¬

cordeon. “ Oh, uncle,” she said, “this one is 
very hard? I’ve had to sit on it; but I can’t 
get it more than half shut.”
