Tho neck of tho bottlo was small, and I the cucumber so largo that It wasn't possible for It to pabS through nnd I wandered how It got tlwo But out in tho garden ono da I camo upon a bottlo s'lpped over the llttlo green fellow that vaa still on ho vines 1 and then I understood. The cucumber cucum-ber had grown In tho bottle. I often seo men with habits that I wonder any strong, sensible man could form; and then I think that likely they grew Into them wnen they wore young, and cannot slip out of them' now; they are Uko tho. cucumber.
