This Mark Twain story might,
have happened. It dates bark to the
period when Mark was living in Hart
ford, on the next block from Harriett
Berrher Stowe and her huebnnd, Pro
fessor Stowe. - One cold and blust
ery winter morning, after on unusu
ally heavy snowstorm, a neighbor,
meeting Mark on the street, slowly
plowing his way thru the drifts, with
a corncob pipe in his mouth and a
snowshovel over his shoulder, asked
him where he was bound. "Oh, Just
around the block an errand of mer
ry," drawled Mark, removing the
pipe from between his teeth and
pointing over his should"r with the
stem of it. "Mrs. Stowe has just tel
ephoned mo that Professor Stowe is
under the weather this niprning, and
I'm on my way round there to shovel
him out."
The conductor of the IjoimIoii mo
tor bus now and ana in seizes a ureal
occension. It was a dark night, and
a lady, laden with many parcels,
boarded the bus. She was carrying
an electric torch, and, not bcnlg used
to the Instrument, found difficulty in
extinguishing it. Again and again
she tried, meanwhile sending dazzl
ing flashes in nil directions, now on
to some fellow travelers and anon
thru the windows or the open floor.
At last the conductor could stand it
no longer. "For 'ravens sike, muni"
an exclaimed, "put it nwy, or we'll
be arrested. Copper'lll tike us for
a 'Un tank."
Hast us Johnson becjime converted

he met one of the exhorters and said:

who still clings to the rock ribbed
hills of New England and told him
of the wonderful fertility of Nebras

derful beanstalk I hung my hat on
a cornstalk a few minutes while I
rested in the shade, and when I woke
up I had to go to the house and get
an ax to cut the stalk down. It had
grown so fast that I couldn't reach my
hat.
When the stalk fell it made such a
dent in the ground I had to bridge it
over to get to the other side of the
held. A neighbor family had twins
babies and had provided only one
small cradle. The babies had to take
turn about sleeping on the floor, and
care umst be exercised in keeping up
the rotation regularly. If one baby
should sleep on the floor close to the
soil more than the other one it would
grow twice as fat. When we stand
still we must take care to keep both

much faster it would bother us in
