SHORT AND SWEET.

Backus Is the patron divinity of race horses. Newspapers are the second hands of history. Prudence is the better part of shrewdness. The most accurate weather report is the thunder clap. Everything a rich man says goes, it ho does not say “balky horse.” The rich man has his mug at the barber shop. The poor man takes his there. 'Tis the accounts of a side door saloon that are kept up by a double entry system. Speaking of “sage dressing.” what’s the matter with Socrates putting his coat on? 1P beauty is only skin deep the rhinoceros should be the handsomest beast afloat. The average man is apt to be the next thing to a fool when he gets beside himself. It is considered strange that aristocratic people will consent to live tn a common wealth. Politeness is like an air cushion. If there be nothing in it, it eases Our jolts wonderfully.
