GETTING BACK THEIR OWN.
A young man had taken his wife to a theatre, and, as there was no one to look after the baby, they had brought it along. It cried lustily all through the first act. At the close of t>he act an official came down the gangway and informed them that if they could not keep the baby quiet they would have to go to the box-oinee, get their money back, and go out. They succeeded in squelching the baby, and all went well for a time. Then, five minutes after the last act had commenced, the young father leaned over and said :— "How do you like the show ?" "Rotten !" was the reply. "Stick a pin in the baby."
