The Bridal Tour.

A damsel from Nevada had the good fortune to marry a young ranchman, who had suddenly become rich. A bridal tour of all the large eastern cities was planned, and away they went, jubilantly happy. On their return the bride was asked if .she enjoyed herself. " Well, I should smile," was her positive reply. "What did you think of Niagara Falls ? >J " Oh, they were real nice, but I didn't care much for them." " How did you like Washington ?" "Oh, just tol'able. The Capitol was pretty fine, but I don't take much stock in such things." " "Did you go to New York ?'' "Yes, we dawdled round there a week, and got tired of it. Brooklyn Bridge was a good deal of a show, but I didn't see anything else 1 cared for much. " Well, now, do tell me, what did you see that you'd like most to see again ? "What pleased you more than anything •else?" The young bride's face brightened visibly ; her eyes twinkled joyfully as she said, " Well, when we was in Chicago we went to a dime museum, and we see there a calf with two heads and two tails. It was born that way. I tell you, it beat anything we ever heard of. John and me, we've both said many a time since, that we'd ruther saw that calf agin than all Washington and New York and Niagiy Fallri put together. Tt jest beats all."
