This late Gko. D, Prentice was a man of gay 
and lively wit, and many of his jokes will long 
pass current. We append a few of them: 
Whatever Midas touched turned into gold. 
In these days, touuh a mau with gold and he’ll 
turn Into anything. 
The editor of the Ohio Statesman sa s, “ more 
villainy's on foot.” We suppose the editor has 
lost his horse. 
“Can't we make your lover jealous, miss?” 
Oh, yes, sir, 1 think we can, if we put our heads 
together.” 
An author, ridiculing the idea of ghosts, asks 
how a dead man can get into a locked room. 
Probably with a skeleton key. 
“ Is it possible, miss, that you don't know the 
names of some of your best friends ?” Certain¬ 
ly—I don’t even kuow what my own may be a 
year from now." 
Our neighbor is still arguing against the credit 
system. Let him try to get credit any where to 
tho nmount of $5, and he will find that his argu¬ 
ments are perfectly conclusive. 
About the only person that we ever heard of 
that wasn't spoiled by being lionized, was a Jew 
named Daniel.
