A SAFE FAMILY REMEDY. 
ESPECIALLY SUITED KOI! 
An Irishman, upon seeing a squirrel shot 
from a tree, said, “Faith, and that’s a waste of 
powder; the fall itself would have killed the 
squirrel.” 
Man never so feels his own littleness, his utter 
insignificance, and how little the world would 
miss him, as when he walks round about and 
gazes upon a Chicago girl’s shoe. 
The reason farm hands are so scarce can be 
accouuted for in the fact that a man can’t get 
a moment’s rest on the barbed wire fence now 
in use. The old rail fence offered some induce¬ 
ment to a man to engage on a farm, but this 
barbed wire business doesn’t give a man any 
show at all. 
A little Fort Atkinson girl, four years old, 
was standing at a window looking at a load of 
hides which was passing by. Jumping down 
from her chair she ran into the kitchen ex¬ 
claiming: “Mamma! mamma! there goes a 
whole lot of tails and hooks to make some 
more cows on.” 
“Was not Mr. George Washington Johnson 
afraid to die?” asked a gentleman of one of the 
friends of the departed colored man. “Oh, no!” 
was the reply. “He took mor’n ten dollars 
worth of patent medicine durin’ his las’ sick¬ 
ness.” 
This notice was found posted up in a Texas 
blacksmith shop: ’’Notis—De copartnership 
heretofore resisting betwix me and Mose Skin¬ 
ner is hereby resolved. Hem what owe the 
firm will settle with me, and dem what the 
firm owe will settle wid Mose.” 
The Right Spirit.— Two laborers were in 
a cemetery reading the inscriptions on the 
stones. After a time, they came to one bear¬ 
ing the usual formula, “Sacred to the memory 
of,” etc., and across the bottom in large letters 
were the words, “I still live.” “ Arrah, Dinnis, 
me bye! do ye moind that now?” said one to 
the other, “I J hw at’s that, Tim, ’’was the reply. 
‘Faix, it’s that ontruth there on the bottom of 
that ould fellows stone;‘I shtill live.' Dinnis, 
if 1 was did and birrid, I’d own up to it!”
