Last week her mother called her up by telephone. Listen," wailed the old lady, "a whole bunch of relatives is coming to supper tomorrow evening. I'll have to make a cake, or something, and I haven't an egg in the house. And the grocer won't trust us any more, and there won't be any money until next week, and " "Never mind, mother I'll fix it," answered the young teacher, cheerily. Then she turned again to her class.

The class is dismissed." Cleveland Cleve-land Plain Dealer.
