His Wish.
Th red men went out for a day’s tailing. They togk a bottle with “bait.” They drank too much. A storm came up, and two of them thought they were going to be drowned. The third was asleep in the bottom of the boat. The two talked over what they wished done with their bodies in the event of either beliig saved. One wished to be c.remate<f; the other to be sent home to his wife. Then they asked the one in the bottom of the boat what his wish was, and when he “came to” enough to talk he aaid; “You can just pour me back In the bottle.”
