Visitor  (at  seaside  boarding  house):  “I 
say.  landlord,  your  food  is  worse  than  it 
was  last  year.”  Landlord  :  “  Impossible, 
sir  ?  ” — Tld  Bits. 
Good  Reason. — She:  “That  odious 
Mrs.  Newritch  seems  to  think  more  of 
her  dog  than  her  boy.”  He  :  “  Oh,  well, 
the  dog  has  a  pedigree.” — Life. 
Tourist:  “Have  you  any  alligator 
satchels  here?”  Florida  Merchant: 
“  N-n-o  ;  the  alligators  hain’t  got  to  usin' 
’em  down  here  yit.”— Chicago  Inter  Oceart. 
“Sponger  had  hard  luck  last  night.” 
“How  was  that?”  “Why,  Ue  Soaque  in¬ 
vited  him  to  take  a  drink,  and  then  had 
the  meauness  to  drop  dead  before  paying 
for  it.” — New  York  Sun. 
Mrs.  Brown  :  “Isn’t  it  a  shame?  Here's 
a  base  ball  pitcher  that  gets  $5,000  a  year, 
and  there  are  plenty  of  clergymen  who 
do  not  receive  $500.”  Mr.  B.:  “  But  it  is 
just  possible,  my  dear,  that  the  pitcher 
‘has  a  better  delivery  than  any  one  of 
those  clergymen.” — Boston  Transcript. 
At  a  Natural  History  Examination. 
— Examiner:  “  In  what  class  of  animals 
do  you  place  man  ?  ”  Candidate  (after  a 
pause):  “'The  ruminants.”  Examiner: 
“Why?”  Candidate  (after  a  longer 
pause):  “Because  he  is  subject  to  rheu¬ 
matism.” — London  Globe. 
Moli.ie  Squeen  :  “  What’s  the  matter, 
Birdie  ?  You  don’t  look  well.”  Birdie 
McAginiper:  “Well,  I  feel  wearied,  and 
overwork'd.  You  see,  our  colored  cook 
is  sick,  and  now  poor  mother  has  to  do 
all  the  cooking  and  scrubbing  and  wash¬ 
ing  and  ironing,  and  it  makes  me  feel  so 
tired  to  see  the  old  creature,  she  is  so 
slow.” — Texas  Siftings. 
Young  Mother  (in  ecstasy):  “  Yes,  my 
little  niece,  this  is  your  teeny  weeny  little 
baby  cousin.  Isn't  he  a  darling,  bless  his 
itsy  tootsy  wootsies.  He  can  talk,  too. 
Sit  up,  baby,  and  talk  to  your  little 
cousin.”  Baby:  “  Goo,  goo,  woo,  mawoy, 
wow,  woo,  goo,  goo.”  Little  niece  (in 
disgust):  “I  dot  a  new  doll  at  home ’at

A  lecturer  in  Cork  once  began  an 
address  by  remarking  very  solemnly  : 
“Parents  you  may  have  children,  or  .f 
not,  your  sons  and  daughters  may  have.” 
And  concluded  with  :  “  There  is  no  man, 
woman  or  child  in  this  audience  who  has 
arrived  at  the  age  of  50  years  but  that 
has  felt  these  mighty  truths  thundering 
through  their  minds  for  centuries.” —
