r ~--tkA t <•£-*-■: -- --■ Sccrettiry Fish is of course a fininn The woman question—“ Where djj yQ” back hair?” “Died from the effects of mixed is the wnV they get at delirium tremensin Cheyenne. V There are more victims to errors committed by society itself, than society supposes. Josh Billings has “never heard of the same man hankerin for some biled crow 2 times.” Why is kissing yonr sweetheart like eating soup with a fork ? Be cause it takes a long time to get enough. A girl at school would like to have two birthdays in a year. When she grows up to a woman she objects to having even one. The greatest luxury of wealth is one the rich but little avsM themselves of—the pleasure of making the |roor happy. Yonng ladies should be careful not to get chaps on the lips. They have been known to lead to an affection of the heart. An American barber has succeeded in marrying a wealthy Italian lady. This big shave will be apt to resylt in little shavers.. Josh Billings says: “One of tlie funniest things I ever seed wuz two old maids waitin on one sick widower.” Joshua, some things are too solemn to be joked about. A parson was twitted with taking too long a time over Ips white tie while dressing. “It i« my duty.’ he answered, “to attend most carefully to my fold.” Habit is like the dropping of water upon a rock—it wears into the life, and the marks it makes can never be effaced without the chisel and hammer of self denial and self discipline. Said a youngster in high glee, displaying his purchase to a bosom friend on the sidewalk : “Two cocoanuts for ten cents! that will make me sick to-morrow, and 1 won't have to go to school.” A few years ago an ingenius gentleman managed to get drunk free of expense almost daily in the streets ot .London by falling down j in a lit, with a pificard oifhis breast | “Don't bleed me, but give me a glass of brandy and water.” A sailor passing through a grave yard, saw on one of the tomb- • stones. “I still live.” This was too much for Jack, who, shifting his qui, . ejaculated: “Well, I’ve hoard say there are cases in which ' a man may lie; but if I was dead I I’d own it.” . ■ • I Everything may be mimicked by : hypocrisy, but humility and love united. The humblest star twinkles most in the darkest night. Tire more rare love united, the more radient when they meet. An Irish friend of ours the other day thundered out n noble answer to a pestiferous dun: “Ye may call, sir. for the dirthy bill this day month ; tuvf if I see your ugly face before that day. I’ll have j to take the receipt from Vour executors.” In Australian courts, Chinese witnesses who have remained I’a-1 gan are sworn by being required j to blow out a lighted candle, the purport being that, in the event of! their telling lies, their souls will be i treated in the same manner. From ! this practice doubtless arose the slang saying, “I’ll be blowed.” A little school boy out West! presented his teacher the following note froln bogie as an excnac for tardiness: “Baby enfss Biscuit to Bake Had no Baken powders the dog up set the cotfee pot the j cat licked in the Milk and got up late Excuse.” Two young ladies in a certain house in town the other night were heard to sing a.-, follows: 1 O for a man ’ O for a man! (I for a man—aion in thc*ky!'* Before they could get any further two young bloods outside responded : “O for a gal! () for a g:il! O for a gal—-on of oIJ rye!’’ ’Bus driver—“ They tell me there’ve been some coins found in therse ’ere exkyvations that ’a been buried there a matter o’ fonr or five ’tiudred year!” Passenger friend—“Oh, that's nothin'. Why, tbcre'3 some in die Bri’sh Museum—ati—m>re than two thousand years old!” 'Bus driver (after a pause)—••Come, George, that won't do. yer know ! ’cause we’re only in eight'll 'undred an’ sixtyiiiue now!’’ . A young laflv having “set her cap” fir a rather large specimen of the opp. wife tvx, and having fafiea to wiu biui, was leiiing her sorrows to n coiijdo of her confidants, when ono of them comforted her with those words: “Nover mind, Mollie, there is as good fish in the sea ever was caught.”" “Mollie knows that,” replied her little „ brother. “Imtslio wants n whale."
