The handwriting of Horace Greeley, the journalist, was so bad that at one time there was only one compositor in the newspaper office who could set up his copy. This man seemed to his fellows unduly puffed up by the fact.

One day while the supercompositor was out a bird that had flown into the office walked into some printing ink and then on to a number of loose sheets lying on the floor. These sheets were placed on the absent compositor's desk and when he returned he proceeded to set up the supposed "copy." Presently he jibbed at a word and went and asked Greeley what it was.

"Why," Greeley shouted, "any fool could see what it is. It's unconstitutional."

Dauber—"Yes, my parents tried hard to keep me from being an artist."

Critic—"I congratulate them on their success."
