THE RURAL NEW-YORKER 
January 19,1907. 
HUMOROUS 
My Bonnie lies under the auto; 
My Bonnie swears under the car. 
I’lease send to the garage for some one 
For 'tis lonesome up here where I are. 
—Washington Star. 
“And as to ideals in America.” “What 
about ’em?” “Are they high?” “Sure. 
Everything in America is high.”—Wash¬ 
ington Herald. 
Teacher : “A rich man dies and leaves 
$1,000,000 to eight nephews and nieces. 
What does each one get ?” Scholar: “Au¬ 
tomobiles, ancestors, and appendicitis.”— 
Life. 
Mrs. Jubbs —“Wake up, John, I’m sure 
a burglar is down in the pantry, and lie’s 
eating all my pies.” Mr. J.:—“Well, I 
don’t care, so long as he don’t die in the 
house.”—Philadelphia Inquirer. 
Physician’s Wife: —I need a new even 
ing dress. Physician:—All right, my 
dear, I’ll look over my list and find some 
fellow who can afford an operation for 
appendicitis.”—New York Pr£ss. 
“There is a lot of excitement in run¬ 
ning an automobile,” remarked the cheer¬ 
ful citizen. “Yes,” answered the man 
who smells of gasoline, “it gives life 
the charm of uncertainty. You never 
know whether you are going to be late 
for dinner or early at the emergency 
hospital.”—Washington Star. 
“Tommy,” said mamma (who had 
noticed severe bruises on his face), 
“you’ve been fighting again.” “Yes, mam¬ 
ma.” “And didn’t you promise me that 
when you wanted to hit anyone you 
would always stand still and count a 
hundred?” “So I did, mamma, and this 
is what Jacky Jones did while I was count¬ 
ing.”—Cardiff Times. 
The editor was criticising the poem just 
brought in by the literary contributor. 
“You speak of the ‘spirit of the forest,’” 
he said. “Do you think there is such a 
thing as a forest spirit, as distinguished 
from any other kind ?” “Yes, sir,” fiercely 
responded the literary contributor. “Didn’t 
you ever hear of such a thing as wood 
alcohol ?”—Chicago Tribune. 
Visitor to the West Indies (who has 
been warned against bathing in the river 
because of alligators, bui has been told 
by the boatmen that there are none at 
the river’s mouth) : “By Jove, this is rip¬ 
ping! But, I say, how do you know there 
are no alligators here?” Boatman: “Well, 
you see, sah, de alligator am so lurr’ble 
feared ob de shark.”—Punch.

medicine for increasing digestion, which is the all important function in egg 
production. This superior poultry tonic supplies iron for the blood, cleanses 
the liver, arouses the egg producing organs, reddens the comb and brightens the 
feathers.
