“The whip is the parent of stubbornness, 
It will be found in the pedigree of every 
balky horse.” 
Boston Post: Au anxious inquirer asks: 
“Where would you advise me to go to learn 
how to play the piano?” “To the woods, dear 
to the deep, dark, dank, dangerous woods.” 
A society paper in describing the order in 
which a bridal party passed down the church 
aisle, says: “The bride walked on the arm of 
her father.” This may be all right, but it 
seems to us that a church was hardly the 
place for her to display her acrobatic accom¬ 
plishments. 
At a dinner table in Massachusetts, a gentle¬ 
man remarked that A -, who used to be 
given to shai’p practice, was getting more cir¬ 
cumspect. “Yes,” replied Judge Hoar, “he 
has reached the superlative of life. He began 
by seeking to get on. then he sought to get 
honor, and now lie is trying to get honest. ” 
“What kind of a man is he? Hood, bad or 
indifferent?” “Well, that depends a good deal 
on who teeters on the other end of the plank 
with him.” “How so, sir?” “Well, if you 
size him up alongside of Judas Iscariot, he 
looms up middlin’ fair; but when you come to 
set him down between such fellers as you an 
me, jedge, he do dwindle terrible surprisin’ 
he does, for a fact.” __
