An Irish Way Around a Difficuty.

Two Irishmen c*me to a guidepost on a wide and desolate plain. It was getting dusk and the unfenced trails were scarcely distinguishable. “Fire miles to Glenairtie,” read one of them, putting his face dose to the board. *But which st than goes to Glenairlie, sure?" asked his companion, looking dubiously at the two trails. After a few moments’ meditative silence, the first Irishman replied: “We can try one av thim and then the other.* “But how will we find the way back av ws get lost?" “Sure we will take the board along wid us," replied the first. And so the two pilgrims lighted their pipes and marched cheerfully away with the gu deboard between them.— Burlington Free Press.
