An ode to a goat may be called a nanny 
versary poem. 
In answer to Joe Cook’s question, “Is life 
worth living?” we reply that it all depends on 
the liver. 
“Mamma,” said a little girl at breakfast, “I 
don’t like this milk—I b’lieve it ’as been 
skinned.” 
Farmer —“You say you are willing to do 
anything?” Jolly Tramp—“In course—any¬ 
thing but work. ” 
“What’s in a name?” a recent traveler was 
heard to exclaim. “Why, about the hottest 
country on the globe is Chili.” 
“Can February March?” asked the punster 
with a sickly smile. “Perhaps not,” replied 
the quiet man, “but April May.” 
Some one says the bicycle season is back¬ 
ward. We have good authority for saying 
that the bicycle fall is usually forward. 
Working Over-Time. —A Florida hen hav¬ 
ing laid two eggs in one day, it is understood 
she will be boycotted by the Knights of Labor 
for over production. 
Mrs. Murphy —“I say, Pat, what would 
yez do if ther ould house would tumble on 
yoz an’crush yez to death?” Pat (complacently) 
“Faix, I’d fly for me loife!” 
Mistress to new cook: “On Wednesdays 
and Saturdays I shall go to market with you.” 
New cook: “Very well mum: but who’s a- 
goin’ to carry the basket the other days?”
