He Had Eaten The Details.

The editor of a country newspaper ia often his own reportorial staff as well, and some of his experiences when out. after news would make interesting reading. The editor of a flourishing journal In a northern California town recently called at the “home of the bride’s parents” the day after the wedding. He was desirous of telling his readers all about the event and wished to give the young couple a good send-off as well. The bride's mother met him. “Good morning, Mrs. Jones,” said the Editor. “I’ve called to get some of the details of the wedding.” "Goodness,” replied Mrs. Jones in dismay, £tliey're all gone. You ought to have come last night. They ate every scrap.”—San Francisco Bulletin.
