A Home Thrust.

A humorous editor, living in Austin, Tex., received a cruel rebuke from his wife not long since. She had been to the theater, and on her return home gave such a very amusing account of the performance that her literary husband exclaimed: “Why don’t you write that out just as you have told it to me ? . It would make first-class copy. You ought to write for the paper.” “No, I thank you. One crank in the family is enough,” was the cutting reply.—Texas Siftings.
