Overheard"
"Is this tho way to Wareham?"
Asked the girl with gym suit on.
"It's how I've always Worn 'em,"
Said astonished Farmer. John.
A NebraBkan reporter was Indulging
in tho rather dangerous pastime of bib
lical quotations. "It's a case of 'feed
ing loaves to the fishes,' " he remarked
concerning a certain course the paper
had pifrsued; and then, as a smile ran
quickly around the group of faces
at the other table: "I guess I got my
parables mixed; I meant 'bread cast
upon tho waters,' and not the 'twelve
baskotsful' story."
A freshman once heard a senior tell
ing a story and stopped to hear it.
This was tho storjt: "Tho crow says to
the owl, 'I'm going to get married.'
The owl says to the crow, "To-whoo!
tu-whoo'!" The Benlor laughed upon
concluding his story, and then the
freshman knew It was funny. Although
he didn't see the point, he was sure
that it was a Joke, and stored it up in
his mind. Meeting a fellow freshman
he proceeded to unburden his mind by
telling the story to him, giving the I
sense, if not tho exact words, and
narrating thus: "Tho crow says to tho
owl, 'I'm going to get married.' Then
the owl up and says to the crow, 'Who
are you going to get married to?' "
"Few people," said a professor to his
class, "know what others have to suf
fer. Apparent ill-nature or meanness
can oftentimes be traced to bodily suf
fering as a cause. I once knew a
man who was reputed to be 111-tem-perod
and disagreeable and who waB
tho object of much abuse. People said
that such a fellow had no right to live
and that he would be better off If he
was dead. But I came to know the
man and to see many good points in
him. Ho waB afflicted by a cancer of
the most terrible kind, which caused
him unceasing pain. Sometimes I
would talk with him and I came to
realize that he would, under ordinary
conditions, be a very agreeable man.
One day ho died. People never knew
of his suffering, but seemed to think
his taking off was a good riddance.
They never thought of any mitigating
circumstances. All spoke HI of him
but me. In fact, everyone thought he
was the meanest man they had ever
heard of except me." And the class
laughed.
"AJost of the professors In these
western institutions are sociable and
democratic men," said an old college
man recently, "but take them back
east, you'll find them In matoy places
Just the opposite. You seldom find a
western student driven to extremes,
In seeking vengeance upon an over
bearing or unjust Instructor, but I
must say that this was hardly the
case when I went to college. I re
member one prof In particular -for
whom I came to cherish a wholesome
dislike. Mathematics was hiB hobby,
and ho was sojconcelted and vain that
life In his class was unendurable. In
some way or other I incurred his dis
pleasure and he sat down on me so
hard upon several occasions that I-
.began to cast about to find some means
of getting ovon with- him. In those
days many 6f the students managed to
earn some money toward their ex
penses by working a small plot of
ground in the summer time and sell
ing the vegetables they raised. I had
a small patch of turnips Just beyond
the city limits, which occupied most of
44
my spare moments and of which I ex
pected great results. One- ovonlng
while I was hoeing In my patch I ran
across a bull snake and killed him.
He was tho largest and fnttest reptile
that I had over seen and was a regu
lar prodigy In bIzo, cvori for those of
his kind. There was a little dried up
turnip plant closo by that seemed
scarcely able to maintain Itself and so
I concluded to try an experiment.
Scraping a hole, I wrapped tho body of
tho snake about tho roots of tho turnip
and hilled it up nicely with fresh boII.
As the freshmen Bay In their annual
Bhort stories, 'tlirio passed on. The
turnips had matured and It was time to
dig them. I Bet to work one after
noon and waB piling them up In rapid
'style when I came across one that was
a wonder In bIzo. It was tho biggest
turnip I ever saw. I gazed at It for
some tlrao, wondering at Its marvellous
size. Then I noticed a number of dried
particles hanging to its roots, and the
mystery was solved. That was the
turnip which I had fertilized with the
bull snake. But as big as the turnip
was, I could hardly reconcile myself
to the thought of eating It, having In
mind tho conditions under which it
was grown. It seemed a pity to throw
it away, and I was for a long time
unresolved as to what I should do
about It. Then I remembered my old
enemy the professor. Hero was a
chance to even up matters with him,
and I was mighty glad to grasp It.
Accordingly the next day I took It up
to his house and presented It to him.
Ho was delighted with the present and
thanked me profusely, and assured me
that he would have It cooked right up
for dinner. I was satisfied to let mat
ters stand as they were. After that I
never had any trouble with him at all.
He was 'always affable and prompt In
explaining formulae that I didn't un
derstand. In fact, he became so all
fired obliging that I really came to
like him. But you may rest assured
that I nover took any pains to acquaint
him with tho secret of the fertilizer
that I used In ralBlng (hat wonderful
turnip."

Bald tho university poet to the editor.
"No sir, you Infernal nuisance," re
plied the editor savagely, "I won't
spare you for even a single second."
And he straightway proceeded to kick
him out.

"Why do you walk so heavily?"
asked the professor of the fat fresh
man.
'It's Just my weigh." was the reply.
