College Days.

There was' once a Yale sophomore who, as many college men do, found himself In financial straits and pawned all his good clothes. A little before Thanksgiving he got a big cheek from home. When he got home for the holidays the first thing his mother took out of the trunk was an overcoat and on it was pinned the' pawnbroker’s ticket he had forgotten to remove. Hastily grabbing the ticket, he said: “Hello! They must have forgotten to take this off at the Smith dauce when I left It in the cloakroom.” A moment later his mother took out his evening trousers. They also had a ticket on them. “Why, Reginald,” she said, “surely you didn’t leave these in the cloak room, too, did you?”—Lippincott’s.
