Trifling Mistake.

Mrs. Lane Is a zealous and loyal wife, according to Harper’s Magazine, and Intends to avoid exaggeration, but she has a strong tendency in that direction. “It is perfectly wonderful,” she said to a patient friend, “to see the way Mr. Lane counts bills at the bank. .1 think they are so lucky,to have hfm! He’ll take a great pile of five and ten and twenty dollar bills and make his fingers fly just like' lightning, and never make a mistake!” “Never?” asked the friend, who knew Mrs. Lane’s weakness, and could not forbear the question. “Well—no —at least,” stammered Mrs. Lane, “why, perhaps he might get fire or ten cents out of the way, but not any more, ever.”
