The Summer!*** Year.
The year 1816 was called the "year
without a summer." Spring came that
year, but in ile faintest form. Snow, j
cold mlna and winds were Inceesant
It was tbo 1st of June before the Bret
left the ground. Tbe farmers planted
their cropa, but the seed would hardly
sprout, and when they came to the sur
face there was not beat enough to
make tbe frail plant* grow It Is re
corded tbat during tbe moutb ot June
birds froze lo death lu tbe woods and ;
fields. Small fruits, such as there j
xrerft. rotted on tbe stem, there being
no birds to eat them Bat little corn
matured. Only In sheltered spots were j
good nixed roasting ears to be found.
Frosts prevailed every month In thr
year and almost dally. The people
after repeated hopes of a change for ?
the better settled dvwn altuoet In de
?pair. The like of II was never known
In tbe country befmv and. fortunately. I

his thick rur cap to tbe heaat's moutb

and with tbe lower teetb tbe skin or
the left part of the forebend. At this
moment the famous bear bnnt leader.

Tha Real Old Articla.
The stranger in Boston was Inter
ested to tbe old family names of that
city. He bore a ? trout letter of In
troduction to a prominent townsman.
"I can give yon from memory the I
names of all the old families of our
city," tbe prominent townsman said,
and be rattled off two or three doaena
at an a ma tins rata
Tbe stranger looked op from his
copy pad expectantly.
"Is that allT" he asked.
"1 hare fir en you a complete list of
Boston's leading families." the promi
nent townsman replied. "Not one of
them dates back less than aix genera
tions."
The stranger stared.
"But surely you hare other old fam

was dellrered hy an Irish Judge trying
a man for pig stealing. The eridenca
of his guilt was conclnstre. hut tbe
prisoner Insisted on calling a number

phatically to his genera I good character.
After bearing their evidence and tbe ,
counsel's speeches tbe indee remained. '
"Gentlemen of the Jury, I think that
tbe only conclusion mn can arrlre at la
that the pig was stolen br the prison*
and that he la the most amiable man
