A SOLON of this city says that thunder is 
like an onion because it comes peal after peal, 
—Chicago Eye. 
IIe.vh are a little backward on eggs, but they 
never fail to come to the scratch where flower¬ 
beds are concerned.—Chicago Sun. 
Gknkva has a rnan that has moved so often 
that his live stock lie down and cross their 
feet every time a covered wagon stops at the 
door.—Watertown Observer. 
A Vkumont editor, in publishing one of 
Byron’s poems, changed the words “Ob gods!’ 
to “Oh gosh I” because the former was too pro¬ 
fane for his readers.—Boston Post. 
A Michioan girl, at one sitting, ate two 
pounds of Limburger cheese. She soon found 
out which of her admirers really loved her, 
though even that one remarked that he didn’t 
admire her taste. -Boston Saturday Times. 
“Are you familiar with Bryant?” asked a 
young lady of a timid young man whom she 
was trying to draw out. “Oh, yes,” he replied 
proudly, brightening up, “I graduated at one 
of his busiuesscolleges.”—Philadelphia Record. 
A witty old physician on meeting a neigh¬ 
bor's ducks iu the road, was saluted with the 
usual "Quack, quack, quack!” “See here,” 
he cried to the neighbor; “keep these ducks at 
home, or I’ll shoot ’em. They’re indulging in 
personal remarks." 
A woman dropped into a commission house 
on Woodbridge Street, to purchase a barrel of 
apples for family use. but she did not mean to 
be bitten in the purchase. “Are all the best 
ones on top?” she cautiously asked. “Oh! 
no; the contents are alike all the way through.” 
“Will you knock the head out of the other 
end?” “Certainly, madam,” and in two min¬ 
utes the feat was accomplished and she saw 
the same grade of choice apples, this satisfied 
her that there was no deception, and she paid 
over her money. It was not until she related 
the circumstance at the dinner table that any¬ 
thing happened to ruise a doubt in her mind. 
Then her husband said: “My dear, I used to 
buy, pack and ship apples. The rule is a 
peck of nice ones on either end of the barrel 
and a bushel aud half of worm holes in the 
middle. Pass the butter.”—Detroit Free 
Press.
