The Governor of a Western State was so 

 annoyed by office seekers that shortly after 

 his inauguration he announced, in the press 

 of the State, that he would be unable to 

 give consideration to all the applications. 



A short time after this the Governor re- 

 ceived a letter reading as follows: 



"Dear Mr. Governor — I see by the papers 

 that you are going to take a month off 

 to destroy the thousand^ of applications for 

 jobs. Now, my dear sir, if everything else 

 is gone, I should like to be engaged to 

 tear up the letters." — Exchange. 



"Was your last mistress satisfied ~''th 

 you?" 



Bridget — Well, mum, she said she was 

 well pleased when I left ! — Answers.

"I like you well enough, Mr. Uxmal," said 

 the perplexed young woman ; "01% at least. 

 I'm not sure I like you as well as I do Jack 

 Cawdrey. He says he thinks of mc 365 

 days in the year." 



"He wants one day off every 4 years, 

 does he?" exclaimed young Uxmal, with 

 indignant scorn. "That kind cf devotion 

 doesn't commend itself to you, does it, 

 Clarice?" 



Jack's doom was sealed from that mo- 

 ment. — Exchange. 



Recreation is a welcome guest in our 

 home, as both of us are enthusiastic nature 

 and sport lovers^
