There lives near Richmond, Va., a family of some social distinction who have in their employ a small negro boy. Much to tho annoyance of tha ladles of the household, this pickaninny for a long time would persist iu neg lecting his nominal duties and would Idle about the grounds of tho place. Finally one day the mistress of tho establishment udoptlng a strategic course, handed the boy pencil and pa per, saying: "Here, Joe, write me a lotter." With a grin the lad Qbeyed. In a Ihort time there en mo from him a shrill call: "Mrs. Blank. I've got it wrote! II says: 'Dear Missus Kin I go down to :he croquet court and see 'em play .roquet? Respectfully yours, Joa Jones.' " Mrs. Blank, not yet ready to allow Ulm that recreation, said: "Very well. Now write me a post-' script" Then she forgot all about Joe. Some hours afterward she chanced to ob serve a note stuck In a door jamb. Opening It she read tho message first written by Joe and underneath it this postscript: "I have went" Saturday Evening Tost. One on Fa. Young G.'s table manners distressed his father extremely. After repeated rebukes he said sternly: "Mv soil, do von know whit a nifl 1 Is?" The small boy looked up for a brief moment from his pudding. 'Um-um," he answered serenely; "it's a hog's littla boy." Lippincott's Maga zine.
