SOMEWHAT CONFUSED.
He lived in the country, and had been dming with a friend. They Had spent a merry evening together, and it was not until two in the morning that the guest picked up his lantern from the hall table and started on his homeward journey along the dark lanes —which seemed to be even darker than usual, in spite of the lantern. It was late the next morning when he got up, and his ideas of the previous evening were somewhat confused. But downstairs he found a telegram awaiting him, which seemed to throw light upon the darkness:—"Am sending back your lantern. Please return my parrot and cage, Jim."
