Against Bossism. Nevada Democrat: ‘There 1s an old colored gentleman hiving in Neyada who, it seems, has 2 very strong and muscylar woman tor a wife along with other earthly possessions. At the recent election “Uncle Lige,’’ contrary to certain traditions ot nis race, voted the straight Democratic ticket. Seeing this a Republican accosted him thus: “1 say, Lige, were you enough to vote the Democratic tick- et?” * “Yes, boss; dat’s so.’” “But don’t you know the Repub- licans gave you your freedom? Have you no gratitude?’ Uncle Lige felt in his pocket as though searching for the article in question, and replied: **Guess not, boss. At all ’vents I’se a Dimicrat now.” *‘But you certainly know that the Republican party set you free ?”’ ““O yes, boss; but dat was years ago. Recent currences make de saoas compression on my mind sah.”’ “*Well, what have the Democrats ever done for you? What are they going to do?”’ **Bolish de dey’s gwine ter do.” ‘But what concern have you with the bosses, Lige? How do the bosses effect you ?”’ **J’se gota mighty heap consarn, sah; ide bosses hab lots to do wid me, sah.’” “Hew’s that, Lige?’’ *Why sah,, de bosses at de liberty stable, basses me; de boss at de hotel, bosses me; de boss at de deepo, bosses me; all de bosses boss me, and den at might de ole woman bosses me. ’an cuffs me aroun’, ’an kicks me outen bed afeah day in de mornin’. Yes, sah, Use a Dimocrat. Down wid de bosses?” fool | bosses; dat’s what The conan of Buggy-Riding. An editor who probably knows what he is talking about says that buggy riding 1s conductive to the tender feelings. We don’t for our part, see how it could very well help being so. Whena young manin a soup-dish hat and polka-dotted socks drives up in his side buggy in tront ef the house where she lives, and she comes to the door all rigged out in things which we hav’nt time to enumerate, and steps down the front step, and the young man just tosses her into the narrow seat and gets in beside her and taps the horse with the whip, while the buggy quivers like a thing of life and joy forever, and the voung man beside Het doesn’t know but every minute will be the next one—why, we don’t see why buggy riding should not be most conductive to the tenderest feelings of anything extant. Horse- back riding 1s cold and distant. Buggy riding is the thing. [—Cheek. She Wanted Mottos. A gentleman whose wife had in- structed him to purchase a few nice, appropriate mottoes, became ine- ated and forgot what was wanted of hm. He had a confused __netion that his wife’s request was in some way Telative to his purchase of some- | so he} thing in the way of sign card, called upon a dealer and purchased quite a variety. “I've got *em (hic), dear. He-he-here’s a whole lot ot nice un’s.”’ he said, as he triumphantly produce I his package. my With a sigh over his maudlin con- } dition, she eet the parcel ani found the following: ‘*Hands Off” | “Your Choice for Fiye Cents. ‘*t.ook out for the Locomotive.’’ saitted.’” “Ham Sandwiches Ten Cents Each.” ‘Tom and _ Jerry.” “Por Rent.’ “Oysters in All Styles. ’* Then the lady went down — and made her own selections, and when her husband woke up one morning after a spree that cost him $306, a placard stared him in the face from his bedroom wall, ‘*Rum | Did It; with a groan he noticed the warnimg, *Shun the Bowl.’’ Shitting un- easily to the other side he caught sight of ‘*Death in the Cup.” hasn't been drunk since." ‘This none can deny, especially when as- and when he turned over | He | to the faste, and onlv cost 50cents a bot pe Sold by F.

It is a boy who can ; | neither see, talk, hear of w alk. There is scarcely hope, if it should grow | to manhood, that it will be *little more than an animated clod, with | some intelligence, perhaps, buc un- able to take its partin any of the} | actiyities of life. Yet this afflicted | | | child is the heir to the premier duke- | dom of England, and when its par- | ents, the duke and duchess of Nor-j} | folk, are dead, he will become po-/ sessed of immense estates. By the time he is of age, a large portion of the city of Sheffield will be his, as; the leases given long ago will then expire. His wealth, if divided would enrich ten thousand famuilies. But what a strange freak of fortune | that this unhappy child without any means of communicating with the world around him, should be in po- session of property and a title which, if he could use them, would make him one ot the most powerful nobles of this century. A $20.00 Bible Reward. The publishers of Rutledge’s | Monthly ofter twelve valuable re- wards in their Monthly for Decem- ber, among which 1s the tollowing: We will give $20.00 in gold to the person telling us how many ver- ses there are in the New Testament Scriptures (not the New Revision) | by December roth, 1382.

Per- sons trying for the reward must send zo cents in silver (no postage stamps taken) with their answer, for which they will receive the Christmas Monthly, in which the name and ad- dress of the winner of the reward and the correct answer will be pub- lished. This may be worth $20.00 to you: cut it out. Address, Rut- ledge PES Ne eon ota Penn, Mrs. John Brown. Topeka Capital. Mrs. Marv A.
