The negro, observing the man’s eyes in some fear inquired. “You gwine to hit whar you look?’ “Yes.” “ Den,” sa : d Cuffee, “hold the cow yourself. I ain’t gwine to let yo • hit me.” Must Do It.—A boy was observed intently wa'ching for a “woodchuck” to come out of his hole. “Do you suppose you cm catch him!” asked a passtr-by. “Catch him?” contemptuously answered the boy, “I’ve got to catch him, straiger. We are out of meat. ” —American paper.
