BORROWED WIT. Mr. Cobb recently married Miss | Webb; he knew they were intended for each other as soon as he spider. A boy at school, on being asked to describe a kitten, said: ‘+A kit- ten is remarkable for rushing like | mad at nothing whatever and stop- ping before it gets there.’ Professor in So ae we | conceive of anything as being eut of | time and_ still occupying space?’ | Musical student thoughttully—‘* Yes, sir, a poor singer in a chorus.”’ **What do you want with arnica! asked an old man of his son. Why. | I saw my wife just start to drive al | j nail, and I expect every moment to | hear her call for it.’’ | Ligntning recently struck a tele- | graph pole and ran along the wire into the ofhce at Coatsyille,Indianna, when the clerk seated at the iastru- ment excitedly telegraphed back, **Don’t send so fast.’’ Astranger asked, ‘Boy, what are you building that mud dam across the gutter for??? The little tellow answered; ‘‘my father is a congress- man and will get me_ an appropria- tion if I can make a shingle float.”’ Another illustration of the value of advertising: A gentleman came into the Courant office late the other night and advertised the loss of a valuable dog. When he reached home, fifteen minutes later, he found the dog sitting on the door- step. A Sixth Ward Democratic orator got off the following eloquent pero- ration: ‘And, fellow citizens, there is not a man, woman or child in the house of 50 years of age who have not had this truth thundering through their minds tor centuries’’ *sJohnny,’’ said the teacher, ‘‘a lie canbe acted as well as told. Now, if your tather was to put sand in his sugar and sell it, he would be actiug a lie, and doing yery wrong.’’ -*That’s what mothor told him,’, said Johnny impetuously, ‘‘and he said he didn’t care.’’ ‘Little Tohnny has pecular views as to original sin. One day he was about to be punished for some mis- demeanor, when he pleaded: ‘It wasn’t ine, mamma dear!—it was the bad man!” **Well, Johnny, I am going to whip the oad” man out of you.”” Ah, yes! but that’ll hurt me more that it will the bad man.”’ ‘A gentleman, while bathing at sea, saw his lawyer rise up at his side, after a long dive. After ex- changing salutations, says he, ‘By the way, how about Gunter?’’ “He is in jail,’’ replied the lawyer, and dived again. The géntleman thought no more of it, but on getting account he found: *T'o consultation atsea, about the incarceration ot Gunter, three dollars.’’ A clergyman in the country had a stranger to officiate for him one day, and meeting his beadle atterwards he said to him: **Well, Dougall how did you Ike last Sunday’s preaching?’’ ‘It was a great deal more plain and simple to me,’’ re- joined the beadle. ‘‘I like sermons that jumble the judgement’ and con- found the sense. And, sir, I never saw one thit could come up to yourself at that?*” Wanted.—An Eo Cornet Player, baker by trade,: well bred ‘and well raised, of pte-ous habits and not too crusty, kneads employment.

Dough-re-mi, Box 95300, Yeast Schedectady, Minne-soda. The colored voters are beginning iS | to understand politics as w ell if not! better than most white voters. Their ' natural disposition to tie and steal, as crops out in the cases of Whrtta- ker and Flippir, is of great advan- | tage to them during a political cam- | paign. One of the candidates for! & an office at the municipal election in | Austin not long since. relied on the | fidelity of an old family servant to | help him out among the colored | i voters. The candidate was beaten. | After the election he was told that | the colored political friend veted ! against him. He did not believe it; but meeting him one day, the ex- | candidate said: “DP give you a dollar, Jim, to tell me whom you voted for.’” “I voted agin you, boss.’ *Wel-, here 15 the dollar for your “candor.”” “Look heah, boss. if yer am gwine ter pay for de candor, | mout aswell own up.

Mr. Jacob Bright says that if the liquor interest be seriously interier- ed with in England money compen- sation will have to be given to the publicans? Duclere, the French Premier, is said to have been a type setter in his youth. It is atleast known that he was proof-reader on an insignificant newspaper. - Arucles in certam papers in Ger- many say that the American girl is fickle in her studies as in love. She wishesto be painter, sculpter, poet musician. A resident of Kirksmanville, Ky., 1s a cousin to his own children, having married his aunt. He is uncle also to his brothers and sisters, and cousins, and brother-in-law to his tather and mother. *Tothe first widow of Lincoln who shall seek a husband after my death I bequeath $200,’’ was a pro- vision in the will of a Nebraska widow. Just forty minutes atter this became known the claimant ap- peared. ‘sNow my dear,’’ said the teacher, ‘tell me what is memory?’ The little girl answered, after a moment’s reflection, ‘‘It is the thing you for- get with.”” There is an Indian superstition connected with Lake Sarzatoga to the effect that the stillness of the water is sacred to the Great Spirit and that whoeve: disturbs it by speaking while crossing, will sink. In the early days of the first settlers it is related that an English woman who was being taken across ina ca noe by some Indians, uttered a loud cry to convince them of their foolish fears The canoe reached the shore safely, when the woman ralied the chief on his credulity. ‘*The Great Spirit is merciful’’ answered the Mo- hawk; ‘‘He knows that a wh'te woman cannot hold her tongue.’ DIED.

It has been predicted that its veriegated disease of central- ization, hypocrisy, fraud, thievery, black-mailing, civil service corrup- tion, assassination and other rascal- ities too numerous to mention, would eventually prove its disaster.
