THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
September 1, 1906. 
HUMOROUS 
He carved initials on a tree 
Eternal love to swear. 
And now he cuts a switch from it 
To lick his youthful heir. 
—New York Sun. 
Jimmy: “I guess Johnny is a liar, er 
somethin’.” Jamie: “Why?” Jimmy: 
“He told me his grandfather lost a leg 
or a arm in every battle he fit in, an’ I 
asked him how many battles he ’uz in, 
an’ he said, ‘More ’n forty.’ ”—Cleveland 
Leader. 
“A number of statesmen refuse to de¬ 
pend on the judgment of the common peo¬ 
ple.” “Well,” answered Farmer Corntos- 
sel, “after the poor judgment shown by us 
common peope in putting ’em up for of¬ 
fice, I don't know as I blame ’em.”—• 
Washington Star. 
Church : “Don't you think the auto¬ 
mobile has come to stay?” Gotham: 
“Well, there was one in front of my store 
today which I thought had; but they got 
a horse after a while, and got it away 
after it had been there about four hours.” 
—Yonkers Statesman. 
Rather Nervous Old Gent: “Have 
you noticed a strange effluvia hanging 
about this neighborhood lately?” Intelli¬ 
gent Cop: “Yus. You means a furrin’ 
lookin’ bloke, with fierce whiskers and 
long hair. He wos standin’ agin that pil¬ 
lar a few moments ago.”—Ally Sloper’s 
Half Holiday. 
“I suppose,” said the old-time friend, 
“that your folks no longer feel the 
anxiety about social matters that they 
once experienced.” “Yes they do,” an¬ 
swered Mr. Cumrox: “mother an’ the 
girls are now as busy keepin’ other 
women out of society as they once were 
gettiir in themselves.”—Washington Star. 
Her Father : “But, sir, you are not 
the sort of man I should like for a son- 
in-law.” Young Man: “Oh, that’s all 
right. You are not the sort of man I 
should like for a father-in-law, but I’m 
not going to make your daughter miser¬ 
able for life by refusing to marry her 
on that account.”—Chicago Daily News.

time it shows no 
signs of, wear, and 
is expected to

without atten- 
tionorrepairs, 
for at least ten 
years longer. 
Unlike the ordinary ready roofing, which is adapted only for temporary buildings and sheds. 
Granite Roofing may be economically used on all kinds of structures. Its unusual weight, 
140 lbs. to the roll, gives to this roofing wiparalleled durability. It can be laid by any one 
who can handle a hammer. Granite Roofing has a surface of stone, thoroughly imbedded 
into its composition, which makes it fireproof and takes the place of the paint or coating.
