Veracious Account of the Artist and

There Is far moiv grace in a cow

Our Friend the Pirate.
The pirate laughed gleefully as h
hoisted the .Tolly linger.
"Ha! ha! ha!" he cachinnated.
"What's the matter?" we nervous
ly inquired, wondering meanwhile
whether he had Just hatched some
fiendish and diabolical plot regard
ing our Immediate future.
"Ha! ha! ha!" he repeated.
"Mabe he's an Englishman and
has Just seen the point of a Joke that
he heard on his last crulBe," mut
tered .Tabez. (Jabei would crack Old
Nick himself over the pate with a
Joke.)
"Ha! hal hs!" the pirate continued.
"What is it?" we begged.
"See that Jolly linger?" Inquired
the- pirate. "That belongs to my
mother-in-law. It's (ha! ha!) her pettb
coat. And she can't come out of her
cabin till the cruise Is over because
It's the only one Bhe has on board."
Whereupon we all laughed boister
ously, although we noticed that our
friend the pirate blanched fearfully
whenever he chanced to hear the out
raged cries of the old lady rising
shrilly above the pealing ebullitions
of our mirth.
