An Old  Deiircssion Story
GUI Jacob's sons were sitting around a atiinip fire tliey lind made in tlic pasture field wailing for the sheep to get their fill of grazing.
"Did you hear the latest?" upped 2cb- iilon. "Little Joe has wheedled out papa's btsi silk shirt."
"Don't say!" said Issaclicr "Won't the girls fait for him now ?"
"Well, lies pa's pet, jou know," said Lc^i. "But take it from me, he's headed fur ;i Fall. Did you hear the dream he's been liaving?"  ¦
"What's that?" asketl se\eral of the brothers.
"Get a load of this," s.iid Levi "Little Joe dreamt that he and his brothers were out in the field, gathering sheaics Well all of a sudden, his sheaf gels in the center and stands still, and all the other slicavcs circle about him and do a.sa¬ laam."
"It takes no psycho-analyst, to under- stnnd that one," said Naphtali, who did a lot of reading. "It's plainly notliing but a suppressed desire. Dreams; you know.' arc but wish fnlfilhneiits, and Joseph in hi.s heart wiyhes for his Jirotlicrs to he subservient tp him."
"Well, we fcould end all of his high falutin fancies in that little pit over there. \Vhat do you say, fellers, if we drop him into that.    It'll be the end of Silk-shirt
Reuben advised the brothers to go slow about it, but the temptation was too great. As Joseph eanie along, he was ,seized and -sJung into the pit. However, on the sly, his older brother snatched him ont and sold, him to some Midianite mer¬ chants who were passing by who took, Joseph to Egypt and in turn sokl him to Lord Potiphar, a Big shot in -the Egyp¬ tian government. '
At first, Joseph was put to working around the house, fixing one thing or another.  ,    . ¦
One day, as Joseph was pottering around the lawn, Mrs. Potiphar looks out of the window, to see if the mail inan was around, when her eyes got a load of Joseph.
From that* time 011, the Missus was busy inventing ways to keep Joseph near¬ by. Her first vyas to affect illness and ask that Joscpli he sent to her quarters to attend to her. -She would lay in bed and say to. Jo¬ seph : "Here, Joe, hold my hand and feel my pulse, I reckon I .ninst have high tcmper.'^ture and rapid pulse." And sure enough, even if iier |)ulse was normal enough, as soon as Joe took hold of it, it would start pit-patting. And • Juc would continually have to feel her pulse, One day, she ups close to Joseph and piits his hair and says: "Yoq know, Joe, I could fall for you in a hig way."
"Be   yourself,    .Airs.   Potiphar,"   says
Josejih.    "What have 1 got to offer you
—me  a  slave.    Besides,, what  will   the
lui'sband say?"
"O hang the Ini.shand," said Mrs. Poti-
¦   phar.
"The chances are he'll hang. me in¬ stead/' rei)licd Joe.
Well, scenes like this would be going on continually, the dame giving him plenty of tronhle. One evening, when Mr. Potiphar yas late coming home, Joseph was called to Mrs. Potiphar's quarters. When he arrived there, the room was full of an intoxicating incense. Only one candle tlinily glowed, but the lij-ht hi Mrs. Potiphar's eyes seemed to burn like six candles as she reclined oit her conch, arrayed in the titmost of ori¬ ental allure.
"Come, dearest, and soothe my brow," said the Missus.
"Well, just hold iny hand for a min¬ ute," said  Mrs.  Potiphar.    Joseph took out his watch.   "AW Tight, remember you I   said a minute."   Joseph took her hand. (Continued on page 2)
