He Couldn’t Be Fooled.

A Georgia man hearing a noise like a rattlesnake in the hotel, went into a friend’s room and saw to his intense surprise five huge rattlers crawling around the room, while his friend sat unconcernedly at a table writing a letter. * “Great Jehosaphat, Jim!” he exclaimed, “do von see those snakes?” “Snakes? What snakes?” returned James. “Why, all around the room—there—everywhere.” “O, no,” replied James, “not at all. I thought so myself at first, but I've had ’em too often to believe all I see.”—.
