The Country Cozen— Charging ten dollars 
a week for board in a rickety farm- house that 
lets in rain and lightuiug. 
When a girl is youDg she wants numerous 
dolls, but when she grows older her wants in¬ 
crease, and she desires several dollars. 
"Where did you get that scarf’ “My wife, 
your honor!” “Ah, she must be a very ener¬ 
getic woman.” “Yes, she always strikes 
while the iron is hot.” 
“What is the matter with the baby! 1 asked 
a lady of a little girl, whose baby brother she 
understood to be ailing. “Oh, nothing much,” 
was the answer. “He’s only hatchin’ teeth.” 
“The Dead March in Saul,” read Mrs. Pina- 
phor, and with an incredulous look observed, 
“1 don’t believe the dead march in Saul any 
more than they march in Monayunk, or any 
other place.” 
“Heard Melodies are sweet, but those un¬ 
heard are sweeter,” are the immortal words 
written by the immortal Keats just after see¬ 
ing a “Killarney” cornet player disappear a- 
round the corner. 
“Ling Ching is a Chinaman who is im¬ 
mensely rich. He’s worth millions,” said a 
traveler. “Goodness 1” remarked one of his 
friends, “he’s a daisy, ain’t he?” “No, he’s 
only a China Astor.” 
“Is it possible, Miss that you do not know 
the names of some of your best friends?” in¬ 
quired a gentleman of a lady. “Certainly,” 
she replied; “I don’t even know what my 
own will be a year from now,” 
"What are you going to do when you grow 
up, if yon don’t know how to cipher?” asked 
an Austin school teacher of a rather slow boy. 
"1 am going to be a school teacher, and make 
the boys do all the ciphex’ing,” was the im¬ 
pudent reply. The next thing that boy had 
to sigh for was a soft cushion on the bench.

WHAT J • DID FOR AN OLD LADY. 
Coshocton Statiom, N. Y.. Dec. 28, 1878 . 
GENTS A number nf people haO been using j’our 
Kilters here, and with marked effect, jonac case, a 
tmlj ufovei seventy years, twit been sick for years, 
ana f r the past ten years lias not beep able to be 
around half the tune. About six months aiio she 
not s<> feeler she was helpless. Her old remedies, or 
physicians, being of no avail I sent to Deposit, forty- 
nv* miles away, and got a bottle Of H»p Billers. It 
imp’■over! her vj -he was able W dress herself and 
walk about the house. When she had token t 'i 
second bottle she was able to take care of her own 
room and walk out to her^neighbor's, ana naa lrn 
proved all the time since. My wife and children also 
have derived meat benefit from their u«e.
