WITH THE FUNNY EDITOR.

The Cirrus Clown Has a Job. Lot of Jokes to Dispose Or. "Funny editor in ?w asked a chalkyfaced individual, whose solemn visage was made more pallid by a weed-bound white hut. Yes. that man over there reading the book of sermons. The visitor wheeled around like a machine, and in two moments doubled hlmsell down into a chair beside the reader. Tunny man?" said he. Fanny! No! dull as dishwater, 99 said the other, throwing down the book. You don't understand began the visi xr. "Don't understand? How do you know that I don't understand, you son of an undertaker? I "No. I mean to say I'm in the ring ana I n "The deuce you are. New York boodle ring? Just back from Canada, eh? "No, sir, was the reply of the chalkyfaced man, "my canvas hasn't been in Canada I - "Canvas ! Well, it's no use for book agents to come canvassing here; you can not make a sale. "Of xurse I can not, as I'm not a sail maker, although I'm used to being under canvas. I'm going to see " "Going to sea? Ah, sailor, are you?" "Sailor? No. I came in to see if I couldn't take something off your hands that "Oh, manicure. No, sir, nothing but two waits, and don't want those taken off." "Manicure? No, sir. The man I cure is generally a low-spirited one. There's a joke for your paper; now will Tou pi aase exchange with me a few "Exchange ? Oh, newspaper man, eh ? Well, that red-headed man with the big scissors over there is the exchange editor." "Say, young man, said the visitor, "why will you not wait till 1 tell you what I want? "Been trying to find that out ever since you came in," said the scribbler. "You may be a bright man outside, but a clown in an editor's room n "Ah! I see you've found me out." "Hope to do so when I return this call." "Well, you must pay fifty cents to find me in. I am a clown in the cir

cus. "Sir, excuse me," said the scribbler, rising. "I mistook you for a funny contemporary." "Dear me, what a mistake. I'n in the ring under the canvas most of the time, and being a little out of stock, was going to see if you had not some jokes on hand you would like to exchange or have taken off your hands." "My cfear sir, you are just the man we have been looking for. We have a choice lot of original contributions in that lin, and would like to reduce the stock. For instance, here are fortytwo versions of the fellow and girl at the garden gate, thirty-six variations of the old man and dog interrupting the lovers, and The visitor's visage paled visibly. "Well, then," continued the scribbler, "here's 108 turns on her 'bem' a sister to him,' hardly any of 'em been used more than two or three times." The visitor picked up his hat and edged toward the door. -Then here's a job lot about aotors walking the road, and the man riding with a irl and driving with one hand." Great drops of perspiration stood on the cue is man's forehead as the editor followec. him to the head of the stairs and held out another package, saying: "I don't mind parting with these squibs about Tiotel clerks' diamonds,' and if you will take the lot FU But he said no more. There was a sudden msh, a leap, a sound of hurrying feet, as the white-hatted man vanished down Che staircase. The paragrapher stared for a moment, a id then returning, applied to the managing editor for a pass that night to the circus to look up something now for the funny column.

The Circus

Touching Discovery. In Mf ,y last the workmen who were digging the foundations for the new law cot rts in Borne discovered a sarcophagi s buried thirty feet below the surface. Immediately the telephone called to the spot the members of the Archaeological Commission, scientific and literary men, who watch with jealous 3are all the excavations made in the Eternal City. Under their direction it was carefully raised and opened. Within lay the skeleton of a young girl, with the remains of the linen in which the had been wrapped, some brown leaves from the myrtle wreath with which, emblematic: of her youth, she had been crowned i i death. On har hands were four rings, of which one was the double betrothal ring of plain gold, and another with Filetus, the name of her betrothed, engraved upon it. A large and most exquisite amethyst brooch, in Etruscan setting of the finest work, carved amber pin-i, and a gold necklet with white :mall pendants were lying about. But what is most strange, as being almost unique, was a doll of oak wood, beautifully carved, the joints articulated so that legs and arms and hands move on sockets, the hands and feet daintily cut with small and delicate nails. The features and the hair were carved out in the most minute and careful way, the hair waving low on the forehead, and being bound with a fillet. On the outside of the sarcophagus was sctJptured her name, Trypbsena Creperii, and a touching scene, doubtless faithfully representing her parting with hor parents. She is lying on a low bed, and striving to raise herself on her left arm to speak to her heartbroken father, who stand? leankg on the bee stead, his head bowed with grief, while her mother sits ofi the bed, her head covered, weeping. It seam but yesterday, so natural is the scene, and yet it is nearly eight

een centuries ago that these stricken

Of course you know that it is an awul wicked thing to go to a circus. We have all heard of the dreadful fate that generally overtakes the boy

j who saves his pennies for the circus

instead of putting them in the contribution box to buv shoes and hats for the heathen. Still, in spite of the fact that the boys who do that way will meet with some dreadful end, most of those same boys prefer to ftsk the danger, and see the elephant. The flaming bills displayed on the walls, and fences, and on the ends of country barns, possess for the average juvenile a sort of magic that nothing else in the world holds for him. The cameleopards as high as a house, and the lions the size of the broadside of a barn, and the bareback riders turning their heels over their heads and putting their feet in their mouths, and the trapeze performers hanging by their toes in mid-air, and jumping through hoops, are full of attraction for the boys, and for some of the pretty old boys, too, if we may judge by the way they stop and study the advertisements. The circus is due in hot weather. It comes in about the time that native green peas and strawberries do, and it continues, if well nourished, until cool weather. It rakes in a good many more shekels than the gospel temperance meetings, for no matter how much afraid of the devil the average man is, he will never invest much money in any scheme to get rid of him. The turcus is preceded by an ocean of long, narrow slips of paper, known as "Hies," which are thrown into everybody's yard, and stuck into everybody's door, and about ten thousand of which sail about the streets and sidewalks of the town, and strike terror to .the hearts of that noble and intelligent animal, the horse. The good moral folks go to the circus, because the children teased them so that they couldn't get rid of them, and they go to see the animals and the horses, and those who do not go for that go to hear the music. They never go to see Mademoiselle La Fandango whirl around twenty-seven

times on her head, with her sinful heels in the air. Oh, no h no, indeed. But they all stay till she has done it twenty-

seven times twentv-seven. Oh, this is a curious old world, and there are some peculiar people in it. The boy who goes to the circus in the afternoon is an object of commiseration when he sees the boy who is going in the evening on his way. Oh, how he longs for the time when he shall be a man, with unlimited quarters and halves of his own, and subject to no man's control. Then he will go to the circus every day! Pity the small boy who has no money with which to buy a ticket. He will lie on his stomach for hours peeping under the crack at the bottom of the canvas, for the scaijty gratification of seeing the legs of the performers, and listening to the sonorous crack of the whip as the ring-master spurs up the horses, and invigorates the riders with some of the stale jokes which are the stock in trade of the circus. Well, we always felt sorry that everything people enjoyed should be so awfully wicked, and everything that people hated should be so very proper; but, then, there doesn't seem to be very much of anything that we can do about it. Kate Thorn, in New York Weekly. Impaired Sight Causes of impaired sight; 1 Sudden changes from very light rooms to dark ones, or the reverse, causing more or less pain, which is always an indication that something is wrong. 2. The flickering of gas-lights and the instability of all lights, since the sight is more or less labored. 3. Beading in the cars, or when the body is not at

rest, as well as in a recumbent posture. 4. The use of tobacco, especially chewing, except so far as the smoke particles of tobacco get into the eyes ; tobacco poisons the whole Bystem, seriously affecting the optic nerve. 5. The intense light of the kerosene lamp, the same being true, in some degree, of all artificial lights. 6. The use of the eyes at the twilight hour, in moonlight, or any imperfect light, when an effort ia made to see. 7. The exposure of the eye to the bright light of a fire, etc., with the added heat. 8. Beflected light, as from the snow, in a very bright day. 9. Long-continued darkness, the result of which is the same, to the sight, as fasting till one becomes very weak is to the powers of the body. 10. Gluttony, debauchery, intemperance in any respect, especially the use of ardent spirits, gross living and venery, the latter especially. 11. All undue effort, all use that produces fatigue or harm, it being always safe to stop at this alarm. Dr. J. H. liana ford, in St. Louis Magazine. He Got a Loan. The other evening a citizen who stood at the corner of Woodward and Jefferson avenues was asked by a stranger for a nickel to pay car fare up Michigan avenue. "You look able to walk," was the reply"So I am; but I'm in a great hurry." "It strikes me as pretty cheeky for a tramp to beg money to ride on when his legs are all right." m "My dear man, this is an exceptional case. I was up that avenue to-day, and met a citizen who pitied my forlorn condition. He didn't have any boodle with him just then, but promised to give me fifty cents if I would meet him at the corner of Fifteenth street at 9 o'clock. It is now 8 :30. I can't make it on foot. If I don't get a nickel I'm gone up for that half. Please look at the case with a business eye and favor me with the loan." He was favored, and he got on the front end of a car, so as to get there seventeen feet ahead of the rear plat form. Detroit Free Press. Swell things in hatsHeads after a

Mnch Lost. A neat proverb advises you to "Pocket your watch, and watch your pocket;" and Iago's famous "Put money in thy purse" needs an addition, telling us how to keep the purse. A Florida paper mentions one that had a faculty for getting lost equal to that of any umbrella. It contained one hundred dollars, and was owned by one Cummins, who dropped it while returning to Sew Smyrna from Daytona. He did not discover his loss until lie reached town, when he immediately started back to look for it; but, owing" to the darkness, did ot find it, and went on as far as Port Orange. 1 In the morning he started toward Daytona, and was fortunate enough to find the purse lying by the roadside near Sutton's Creek. He put it into his pocket, and on his arrival in town discovered that it was once more gone. He again started in quest of it, and was lucky enough to find it near Bolfe'8 house. His -wife, who accompanied him, tied the halter around it and tied it to the buggy seat, and they finally go it homo safe. Entirely Helpless to Health. The above statement made by Mrs. S. H. Ford, wile of Gen. Ford, can be vouched for by nearly tho entire population of Corunna, Mich, her homo for years. She was for two years a torriblo sufferer from rheumatism, being confined to her bed most of the time, her feet and limbs being so badly swollen she could scarcely move. She was induced to try a bottle of Hibbard's liheumatic Syrup. It helped hor, and two additional bottles entirely cured her. To-day she is a well woman.

During the excitement in politics under old John Adams' administration, occasioned by the "direct tax," a simple-minded Federalist called upon a noted politician of Hallowell, saying:! Squire, has not our party made a mistake about this tax ?" "Oh, no," was the reply; "we must have money to build up a navy to protect our commerce, and we need an army to prevent any more whisky insurrection." The man went home and told his neighbors : "The tax is all right; we need it to promote knavery and prevent the resurrection V

As Usual. "Gimme th' quarter, and you hold them papers while I get change," said a newsboy to a gentleman who wanted to buy a daily paper. "Course 111 come back," he said, as the gentleman dubiously took the bundle of papers which the urchin handed him, adding, "Ain't you got my stock in trade?" The gentleman stood on the curb for five minutes holding the papers and waiting for his change. The boy never returned. The papers were worth just 8 cents; the quarter was worth 25. The Spartan Virtue of Fortitude Must be possessed in no ordinary degree by those -who bear the pangs of rheumatism without complaint. We have never heard of such an Individual. But why not, ere the lifelong rricrtyrdom begins, extinguish the germ of this atrocious malady with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, the efficacy of which as a preventive of the disease, as well as a means of relieving it, is well established and amply attested, during the last thirty-five years, over professional signatures? It expurgates from she blood those acrid principles which beget the pain and inflammation characteristic of this complaint, which, it should be recollected, is always liable to terminate life suddenly when it attacks a vital part. The Bitters also expels the virus of malaria from the system, remedies dyspepsia, kidney complaint, constipation and biliousness, quiets the nerves, and invigorates the whole physical organism.

An Accommodating millionaire. Of all the millionaires none has been regarded as more retiring in disposition or more anxious to avoid public scrutiny and comment than Jay Gould; but I learn that he has just- done a thing which indicates a change of mind. One of our theaters is making ready elaborately for the production of a melodrama of city life. One of the characters is named Jee Gold, and he is meant to be a counterpart of Jay Gould. I understand that it is undecided whether to employ an actor who looks like Gould, or can produce a resemblance, but it ii settled that tho pswt will be that of an extremely rich Wall street capitalist and manipulator. One scene is to represent the billiardroom in Gould's city residence. The theater folks did not suppose that they could copy the apartment exactly, and so their scene-painter went to George Blosson, the billiardist, who had once been employed by .lay Gould and his son George to teach the game to members of the family. The plan was to use Slosson's recollection in modeling and painting the view. But Slosson rather thought that Gould might afford access to the room for the purpose, and a polite, urbane, pursuasive fellow was sent on the doubtful mission to the millionaire. "I suppose youTl make the scene itnyhow," Mr. Gould replied, "so I think you might as well be right. Send your scene-painter up to my house, and I will give orders for his admission." Thus it will come about that Jay Gould's billiard-room will be seen by theater assemblages exactly as it looks. New York letter. No Cure No Pay.

From time to time many InTentlona anddvlre have been placed upon the market clain ins to cure catarrh, neuralgia, bronchitis, etc., macy of which are said to contain slectrio or magnetic cuatttif powers. Dr. Palmer is a gentleman who has devoted i Ca of study to the subject of catarrh and diseases otthe bead, throat, and lunffs, and some timo sin: he commenced a series ot experiments with a TiiW to determining whether any combination could be termed which would kill the parasite and act as a healing power at the K.irne time, and at length succeeded in determining thatmenthol, when combined with magnetiKm, would do so, out now to arrange these seemingly opposite agents so as to rentier their iif convenient and effectual was a Question of Borne difficulty. At length he succeeded incontiniag within a vulcanite tube three inches long and abcot three-quarters of an inch in diameter a perfect mtgnetic battery in the form of a coil of steel wiro. th the interior of this battery is stored a fine grade of imported menthol. The ends of the tube are cLossd by nickel caps, which, when removed, admit tt tha free inhalation of the eleetro-mentholized air. The menthol acts as a germacide. while the magnetoelectric force stimulating the weakened nerves of the diseased parts into healthy action forms a wenderail healing power, thereby successfully atoiiplog any further depredations. The fumes when inhaled are refreshing and cooling, and for the immediate relief and speedy cure of catarrh, cold in the head, hay fever, headache neuruigia, catarrhal deafness, etc it is unsqualed. It cures headache in five minutes. Sore threat is one of the diseases immediately affected by tlia Inhaler. One purchaser thus speaks of the Inhal sr: New Diggins. Wis.. August 9, 1889.-7. 4.
