HUMOROUS QUIPS

On the Rio Grande. “What makes you look so white, so white?" said Files-on-Parade. "It looks as If we wouldn't fight,” the color sergeant said. “But what Is that to you, to you?" said Files-on-Parade. "Why, we want to show what we can do." the color sergeant said. / “There’s been some criticism that the army isn’t there. They’re saying down in congress that we’re laughed at everywhere. It wouldn’t hurt a whole lot if we pulled somebody’s hair. An’ the army’s mad as thunder at the greasers." . "What’s that so white against the sky?" said Files-on-Parade. • "Why, that’s the flag the rebels fly,” the color sergeant said. "What’s everybody swearing for?” said Files-on- Parade. "They’re that disgusted with the war,” the color sergeant said. “The boys were fairly itching for a chance to intervene. Their hearts were hot for battle, an’ their humor was serene. , But, as luck will have It now, there ain’t no fight to comd between. An’ the army’s mad as thunder at the greasers.” —Clark McAdams in St. Louis Post-Dis-patch. Quite Like Home.

Go below,” and the captain canie alongside. “Well, I guess not,” protested the passenger. ‘Tin up here to see how due of your mountain high waves and •terrific gales’ compares with what we have at home in the way of cyclones. This ain’t a patch to what I’ve seen out our way.” A big wave just then broke over the deck, sweeping the speaker aft They picked him up with a broken leg, a twisted shoulder and a sprained wrist. When he came to he saw the captain. “Captain,” he said feebly,®‘that reminded me of home, only it was a sight wetter.”—Tit-Bits.
