A joke is told on our good-natured
friend. Frank Brewer, which is too
good to paos by. While working on

the inner needs of nature gave him
hurried warning of the evening meal.
Having a heavy whetstone in his
Docket, he threw the same, as be
thought, into his work chest, but
unthoughtedly dumped his pocket
book. containing some 920 in money
instead, and went to the hotel, nor in
his abstraction noticing the difference
till morning, when he found the
poeketbook minus, with the heavy
; whetstone plus. Thinking lie had
lost the filthy lucre, he made a sys
tematic hunt, later finding it safely
in his work box where be had thrown
; it the night previous. As Frank is
an ardent advocate of the water
wagon, his friends are at a loss to ac
count for his absence of mind.
