Marriage in High Life.—A n occurrence 
which Mrs. Ramsbotham usually calls a most 
suspicious event. 
Josh Billings says that a good doctor is a 
gentleman to whom we pay three dollars a 
visit for advising us to eat less and exercise 
more.” 
“ I Horn thisis not counterfeit," said a lov¬ 
er, as he toyed with his sweetheart’s hand. 
“ The best way to find out is to ring it," was 
the quick reply. 
“What is love?" asks everybody, and 
somebody replies, “ It is a feeling that you 
don’t want another fellow fooling around 
her.” 
It is a time-honored custom in Quincy, 
Florida, to salute a newly-married couple by 
firing a cannon. This is to remind them that 
the battle of life has fairly begun. 
A YOUNG dramatist shows an acquaintance 
through his gallery of family portraits. 
“ Lucky dogs, those ancestors of mine 1 ’ he 
observes, thoughtfully: “ I’ve made a name 
for them l” 
He had lost his knife, and they asked him 
the usual question “ Do you know where you 
lost it?”—“ Yes, yes,” he replied, “ of course I 
do. I’m merely hunting in these other places 
for it to kill time.” 
Mrs. Fogg visited a second-hand auction 
the other day, and bought a job lot of kitchen 
furnishing goods. Fogg says every article in

A clergyman, in a lecture on “ How to get 
Married,” said: “ Every man wants a wife, 
and every woman wants a husband. But the 
great difficulty is that the woman the man 
wants won’t have him, and the man the 
woman wants wants some other woman. 
“ What makes Colonel--so popular? I’m 
sure lie’s very stupid. He can hardly see 
beyond his nose,” said a lady to a friend, who 
replied: “My dear, sharp-sightedness is not 
what makes a person popular. It is what the 
colonel doesn’t see that gives him such popu¬ 
larity.”
