Light Wanted.

The professor of the chair of politiical economy had talked to the class an hour and a half. “I have tried to make this whole question of the tariff perfectly plain to you,” he said, wiping the perspiration from his glowing face, “and I trust I have succeeded. Still, if there should be some among you who desire further light on this matter I am ready to answer any questions you may ask.” “I think I understand the most of your lecture, professor,” spoke up a deeply interested young man on the front seat, “but I’d like to know whether this ad valorem you’ve been talking about is a manor a woman.” —Chicago Tribune.
