THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
July 14, 1906. 
HUMOROUS 
“That man has a very shady business 
record.” “Why, what has he been doing?” 
“He puts up awnings.”—Baltimore Amer¬ 
ican. 
Stella: “Isn’t that Mr. Bachelor kind 
and gentle?” Bella: “That’s just the 
trouble; he stands without hitching.”— 
Brooklyn Life. 
“Do you know why the chickies came 
out of the eggs, Bobbie?” “I guess they 
knew they’d get boiled if they stayed in.” 
—Harper’s Bazar. 
Village Constable (to villager who has 
keen knocked down by passing motor cy¬ 
clist) : “You didn’t see the number, but 
could you swear to the man?” Villager: 
“I did; but I don’t think ’e ’eard me.”— 
Punch. 
“For goodness’ sake! What’s that 
noise?” “The girl next door is having 
her voice cultivated.” “Huh! Apparently 
the process of cultivation has reached 
the harrowing season.”—Philadelphia 
Ledger. 
“See what all this blamed nonsense has 
cost the country!” exclaimed the western 
cattle raiser. “What? The investiga¬ 
tion?” queried the other passenger. “No, 
darn it—the things the investigators found 
out!”—Chicago Tribune. 
Suburbanite (to visitor) : “Oh, how 
are you ? Come right in. Don’t mind the 
dog.” Visitor: “But won’t he bite?” 
Suburbanite: “That’s just what I want 
to see. I only bought that watch dog 
this morning.”—Lc Rire. 
First Sailor : “On my last voyage I 
saw waves 100 feet high!” Second Sail¬ 
or: “I’ve been a sailor forty years and 
never seen ’em over forty.” First Sailor: 
“P’raps not! But everything is higher 
now than it used to be, mate!”—Life. 
“Yes, sir,” exclaimed the representa¬ 
tive of commercial interests, “this pure 
food law is all wrong.” “What’s the mat¬ 
ter with it?” “Matter? Why, man. if we 
couldn’t adulterate the poisons we use in 
our fancy goods for table use they’d be 
fatal.”—Philadelphia Ledger. 
“The people,” said the first trust mag¬ 
nate, “are kicking about our selling stuff 
cheaper abroad than we do at home.” 
“Well,” responded the second trust mag¬ 
nate slowly, “if they kick hard enough— 
if they kick hard enough-” “Yes?” 
“We may have to raise those foreign 
prices.”—Philadelphia Bulletin. 
“Do you know,” said the cheerful fel¬ 
low, as he watched the tourist making for 
the station, “that it is the easiest thing 
in the world to tell whether a man is go¬ 
ing out on a journey or returning by the 
way he carries his portmanteau?” “I 
never thought of that,” said the simple 
young man. “What is the difference?” 
“It’s just this way,” he went on. “When 
a young man is going away he carries his 
portmanteau towards the railway station, 
and when he is coming back he carries it 
in the other direction.”—Scottish-Amcri- 
can.
