LIARS PRETTY WELL MATCHED American Evidently Found Foeman Worthy of His Steel, in Old . English Farmer. » —— An American poultry farmer went over to Ergland to have a look round the poultry farms there and see where || the farmers were making mistakes. Ha did not hesitate to tell how far advanced was the art of pouitry. keep- ing In America; and spun several very || tall yarns on that subject. Twenty chickens from twelve eggs appeared to be. an everyday occur- rence in the United States, if the storiey he told could be belleved. 3 But abluft old English farmer was not undily impressed. 5 . “Happen, mialster,” . sald the old - man, “ye have never seen as many as a ‘hundred’ chickens hatched by one hen‘ at -a setting?” “Waal,” answered the American, can't say that I Lave, but—" ! “Well, then, listen here, maister; I have,” returned the farmer. “Down Ipswich way we ailus fill a barrel with eggs and set the old lien on the bung- holel"—Houston Post.

Pinckney is said to Rave Indignantly ‘answered! with “the now historical . phrase: “Millions’ for de- fense, but not one cent for tribute.” It is said, however, that long afterward, when Pinckney was asked in his club whether he had ever uttered it, he re- plied: “No. My answer: was not a flourish like that, but simply, ‘Not a penny, not a penny.’"” A True Story. An office boy in a big business house approached one of the clerks and with great solemnity asked him to divide 180 by 10. “Highteen of course,” was the immediate reply. The boy looked thoughtful. “Are you sure?” he asked. The clerk thought there was a catch scmewhere, but was assured that the boy was in earnest. “I've worked it out over and_over,” he said, “and ‘it comes out. 17 and ;10 over,” he ex- plained. ml ANNOUNCES COMMUNITY AND CIVIC COMMITTEES Mrs. J.
