You stole my daughter away and.disregarded all the conventionalities of society. And yet you ask forgiveness!” "on old scroundrel, what did you do?' retorted the new son-in-law. “What did do? You let us elope, and did not sue us on horseback with a shotgun. You have shattered all the traditions of elopements and have blasted all the romance of the affair for us.

Some time ago the dog happened to call at a public house, where he knew a good many of his patrons would be assembled. Besides dropping pennies into bis box and regaling him with biscuits some of them used to let him take a sip or two out of their mugs of beer. In this way, the’unfprtunate animal acquired a liking for drink, with the most deplorable results. It was not that he occasionally became Intoxicated and was thereby unable to pursue his errand of mercy, but his whole moral nature became depraved.
