That Unruly Member.

As is well known to most of the peo'J pie In Austin, Mrs. Col. Yerger is a fearful scold and scandal-monger. She jaws her husband until Bhe nearly drives him crazy. A few days ago, on his coming home from dinner, he perceived that’ his wife had her jaw tied up. “What’s the matter with your jaw, Mrs. Yerger; is it tired?” “Oh, I have been to the dentist’s and had two teeth pulled, you unfeeling brute 1” “Rappv, happy teeth l I only wish I was one of them.” “What do you mean, Col. Yerger?” “Nothing, except that those teeth are at last beyond the reach of your tongue. They ought to be happy. I would be happy if I were beyond the reach of your tongue. How happy those molars must be!” She made him think Sb more than ever before she got through with him. —Texas Siftings.
