Senator Depew, at a dinner in New York, said of his noble oratorical gift: “I have received many compliments on my skill at after-dinner speaking, big. the naiveet compliment of all came from an up-State farmer. “‘Senator,’ said he, ‘you might have typhoid fever and recover, you might have pneumonia and recover, . you might have yellow fever and recover, but if you ever. get lockjaw, you’d bust!*"

Driven to It

Guy the youngest son of Fanner Tlmmina had spent two years in college, during which time he had accumulated more indebtedness than education. His father paid hie pills, and left his to shift for himself. The boy had good stock in him, however, and managed, by turning over a new leaf, practicing straight economy, and doing odd jobs of work as opportunities presented themselves to pay for his tuition, and he stayed on. “How’s you boy doing at college?” asked the elder Timmins' next neighbor one day. “He’s getting along all right now.” “I heat he* working his way through.” “Yes,” grimly, but with a gleam of pride, answered Farmer Timmins. “He found he couldn’t work me any more.” —Youth’s Companion. z .■ • - ' ■

The Facetious Bounderby.

.The real estate agent had been rehearsing the virtues of the summer cottage. “The house is a stone’s throw from the trolly,” he said in conclusion. “That’s good,” said Bounderby, “It will give us something to do summer evenings.” “I beg your pardon,” said the agent, somewhat mystified. T say it will give us something to do summer evenings,” said Bounderby. “We can sit in the house and throw stones at the trolley.”—Harper's Weekly.

In Those Days.

“Pa,” said little Frank, as he turned the pages of his history, “can I ask you a question!” ■ “What is it, my son?” asked the fgather, without looking up from his sporting page. “Bow did the cliff dwellers keep warm tn the winter time?” “Why, I guess they used the mountain ranges.

The great trial was over, and the victor, flushed with triumph, sat in his lawyer’s office. It was only when the legal luminary called his attention to the fact that he noticed that hie little bill now lay before him. Then his feeling underwent a revolution. “But—but,” he stuttered, “this is outrag bus! Why, it’s more than seven eights of what I recovered in damages.” “You forget,” the lawyer pointed out in mlia approval, “that I furnished the skin and legal learning for your ease.” *But I furnished the case!” urged the argumentative client. “My dear, sir," expostulated the legal luminary, “where is the comparison? Why, any one can fall down a coal hole!”

“What were postal cards invented for?” "For the benefit of the sort of people that write tor free samples of things.”

“There’s what I’m looking for,” said the lazy man going through the want advertisements for an easy job, as his eye lighted on a call for canvassers to sell something that “would sell itself.” “That’s the sort of a job 1 want.” he said to himself. Something that I can earn money at without work.” And he thought that really some day he must go down and look ’em up. Collector — “Can I see Mr. Wiggles ?’’ Office boy (promptly)—“No sir.” Collector (sharply)—“Why can’t I?” Office boy (looking around the .otherwise vacant office) —“That** a pretty sort of question f<w a grown man to be asking a boy like me, ain’t it?” ' Collector stands corrected.

Your seat for work astonishes me. No detail seems too small to escape you, no task too great tor you to accomplish. You are the first to arrive in the morning and the last to leave it”—— “Oh, thank you, sir—thank you!” cried Ebenexer, and waited, wondering whether it would be a five or a ten dollar rise, or whether it would be a managership for him. “Hence, Ebenexer," groweMl MMtigraft, “I want you to clear Out thia week.
