Looking After His Balt.

Daniel and Harvey, two old, expert fishermen, were “still” fishing for trout in deep water, sitting with their backs together, when Daniel accidentally fell out of the boat and went down. Harvey looked back and missed his companion, who at that moment appeared on the surface, pipe still in his mouth, shaking his whiskers profusely. Harvey—Gosh, Dan! I jest missed ye! Where ye been? Dan —Oh, I Jes’ went down for ter see if me bait wus all right—Judge.
