Nell : “ What was Mrs. Newlywed’s 
maiden name ? ” Belle : “ Her maiden 
aim was to get married. — Philadelphia 
Record. 
“ You never saw my hands as dirty as 
yours,” said a mother to a little girl. 
“ No; but grandmother did,” was the 
reply.— Youth’s Companion. 
Housekeeper: “Your milk is as thin 
as water to-day.” Milkman: “ Well, 
mum, it was very foggy this morning 
when we milked.”— Puck. 
A maiden writes: “Can you tell me 
how to change the color of my hair, 
which all the young men tell me is red ? ” 
Certainly we can. Get rich ; they will 
then call it golden or auburn.— Erie 
Messenger. 
“ Wisiit I was a codfish,” said Jack. 
“Why do you wish that?” asked his 
mother. “ They don’t have to take cod- 
liver oil. They’re born with all they 
need already inside of ’em,” said Jack.— 
Harper’s Round Table. 
“ Which stands the higher in your 
country, the politician or the literary 
man ? ” asked the visiting Englishman. 
“ Oh,” answered the careless native, 
“ they are about even, I guess. One gets 
vindicated, and the other gets syndi¬ 
cated.”— Indianapolis Journal. 
A French writer of some note recently 
wrote to a friend in this country that he 
was studying English, and making fa¬ 
mous progress. “In small time,” he 
concluded, “I can learn so many Eng¬ 
lish as I think I will to come at the 
America and go on the scaffold to lec¬ 
ture.”— Detroit Free Press. 
“ These cut prices in medicine are a 
great comfort to me,” remarked old Mrs. 
Gummey. “1 never felt as though I 
could really afford to be sick as long as 
I had to pay a whole dollar for a single 
bottle of patent medicine ; now that I 
can get them for 73 cents it makes a big 
difference.”— Harper’s Bazar. 
Two Irishmen were once discussing the 
respective merits of the sun and moon. 
“ Sure,” said Patrick, “ the sun gives a 
stronger light than the moon.” “ True,” 
answered Brian, “but the moon’s the 
more sinsible.” “How do you prove 
that ? ” says Pat. “ Aisy,” responds Brian, 
“ for the moon shines in the noight when 
we nade it, and the sun comes out in the 
broad daylight, when a one-eyed man can 
see without it.”— Household Words.
