Simple Man.—Ho staggered to the bar and said, “ for heavens’s sake give me a drink! I’ve been down.in Maine and haven’t had a drink of liquor for four days.”; And the crowd gazed at him with intense pity. • They pitied a man who was so ignorant of the ropes as to be unable to get a drink in Maine.— “ Boston Post.”
