The caution or some people in givmg an answer to a direct question was well illustrated the other day, when a young- fellow,who e family were not notsd for very active habits, was asked: I hear that your father's death was very sudden ?" Slowly drawing one hand from his pocket, the interrogated one cautiously replied: "Ay, it was ■nco' sudden for him. I ne'er knew o' my feyther bein' in a hurry before."

"Aye, aye," was the cool reply; "go on till I tell ye to stop." After dinner the servant suggested that he should pull weeds, but he refused. "No, no," said he: "I flassen't stoop after »osh » meal. !'In tiled Vself for rolling I"
