Tbe foregoini; s;rapbie commiiiiicatioii we exiinined 

 from an aeenmuiation of past years, and assisrn it a 

 place in our "fence corner," on this oeea.sion, al- 

 tIiouy:li from Ilie sii;niliean<'c of its inlerroL'atorics, in 

 an economic and liumane sense, umlcr oilier eircnin- 

 stanees, it mii^lit have been entitled to a more eon- 

 spicuons place in our journal. 



Tile dialect in wliieli it is written, is an atti'inpt at 

 '•Pennsylvania Dutcli,'" and the writer lias succeeded 

 about as well as others liavc, liir we have never yet 

 seen any composition in that peculiar lanijiiasre, that 

 we tbou^'lit an entire success. On the subject of 

 "Woman's l\ifflits," Sitsnu seems to be "on the 

 fence," and this itself niiifht .seem a jiistilicatioii lor 

 placins; it in the /<»cr (•»/■/('/■, fur tlicre is the place 

 any person on a fence would be most likely to "come 

 down." We, however, do not jjiei^- this peculiar 

 kind of literature to our columns, and only insert 

 this on account (if its brevity, its unll/iiUj/, and the 

 practical tiuality of its oll-liand sugsestious — merits 

 rarely found combined. 



How to find a girl out — Call when she isn't iu. 



A XF.w definition of an old maid is— a womnii who 

 has been made for a long time. 



Ax Iowa bride madi' every girl of her acquaintance 

 attend her wedding by keepim; the nameof the bride- 

 groom a secret until the last moment. 



Whkn you hear a good story from tbe lips of a 

 stupid man, and sec a silk unibrclla in the bands 

 of a man who does not pay for a news|)aper, you may 

 know that both have been borrowed. 



As the ladies walked on the beach with their long 

 hair down, because otherwise "it lakes so long to 

 dry," it was tbefH/<i» tcrribli who said triumphantly, 

 "Mamma leaves all hers at the hotel." 



" Ix the order of the DauL'hlers of Rebecca," says 

 Hon. Schuyler Colfax, " arcCli.lHiO .\mcriean women, 

 and yet no one outside knows aiiytbiiiir about the 

 society. Who says a woman can't kccji a secret ?" 



The elevators in the new Palace Hotel, San Fran- 

 cisco, have their uppermost landing on the roof, 

 where a line place is prepared for the guests to prome- 

 nade and enjoy the extensive viewof tbe city, suburbs 

 and harbor. 



Miss Ad.v Lfc.\,of Carthage, O., won a eook stove 

 at the Cincinnati fair as "the best and most expedi- 

 tious eook." In thirty minutes she cooked well, 

 potatoes, chicken, iiorter-honse steak, tomatoes and 

 corn, and made cotfee, tea, i)ie aud biscuit, and eel 

 the table in the neatest style. 



Tmk worst case of sellishncss that a Kentucky 

 newspaper has ever been permitted Iu picseiil to the 

 public, cmanaled from a youth wlm coin|)lained be- 

 cause bis mother put a biirger mustard [ilaster on his 

 younsjcr brother than she did on him, after they had 

 partaken too friely of melons and hard apples. 



A fakmek's wife in a Yorkshiri', Kngland, town 

 was recently assaulted by her husband in a Held 

 where there' was a cow that the woman had irreally 

 petted. On seeing the man bealiiii,' his wife, tearing 

 her clothes, and otheiwi.se maltreating her, the cow 

 came charging mxin the lield, and attacked the man 

 with such ferocity that he was glad to retreat. The 

 cow then tiKik npailefciisivi' iiositioii by the woman's 

 side, and stood perfectly still while the woman strug- 

 gled to her feet aiul supimrtcd herself by leaning 

 against its flank, until she bad siiHieiently recovered 

 to take refuge from her husbaml in llight.
