Some children are often amusing by reason of their conceit, as im the case of the young French gentléman of the mature age of 5, who, on being told that the baby wanted to kiss him, said: | “Yes; he takes me for his papa.” A “sweet girl-graduate’’ wrote the following on the fiy-leaf of her text- book on moral science: “If there should be another flood, For refuge hither fly; Though all the world should be submerged, This book will still be ry.” Annals of a quiet watering place— Lady visitor: ‘Ob, that’s your vicar, is it? “What sort of a vicar is he?’ Lady resident: “Oh, well, middling!

Now, sir, will you tell me what caused your grandfather's death?” Shoddie de Parvenue—*-Qh, of course, I can scarcely remember him, but I have frequently heard my father say that he died of cholera infantum.” A lady was reproaching Mr. William Warren, the actor, at a recent banquet, for going into society so little. ‘You ought to let us lionize you a little,” she said. ‘‘I never heard of but one msn,’’ replied the veteran actor, “who was not spoiled by being lionized.”* “And who was he?” ‘‘Daniel.”’ “Madame, you've destroyed $5 worth of merchandise,’ angrily re marked a dude to a lady, as she seated herself in a chair in which he had de- posited a new Derby hat. ‘Serves you right,”’ she replied, siowly,rising from the ruin; “you had no bu s to buy a $5 hat for a 50-cent head.—Brooklyn Eagle. ‘The maddest man in Baltimore is a certain saloon-keeper.

An Austin lady recently returned from quite a.protracted visit to the north, whither her husband, being closely confined by business, was un- able to accompany her. While unpack- ing her trunk her decidedly plain and vinegar-featured housekeeper thus ad- dressed her: ‘‘Sure, and you have a jewel of s husband.” “Yes, I think myself he is pretty nice, but why do you consider him such a jewel?” “Why, during the entire time you were gone he niver said a word to me.” — ooo Peru's Railroad Builder. “The story of Henry Meiggs,” said one of his old acquaintances the other day, ‘tis almost pathetic in that part of it where in his old age he sought to re- air the errors of his youth, especially in reference to his financial obligations. One day a young Long Islander, the son of wealthy parents, was buying a Christmas present for his mother at Tiffany’s, when he saw a superb silver ieces of which bore the mon- ogram ‘H. M.’ He learned that it had been made at great cost for the Peru- vian railroad contractor. He told at home of the magnificence of the silver set, and, ashe presented his mother with the single piece of silver which he had purchased, said that he hoped to be able some day to buy her as fine 4 set as that ordered by Henry Meiggs. “If Meiggs will pay me what he owes me,’ said the father, ‘you could doit. I hold $7,500 of his notes dated in 1832. I bought a quantity of lumber for him down the Hudson river, and he failed to pay me except in these notes, and they proved worthless. We were intimate friends until this transaction. I never told anyone of these notes be- cause I did not want to further expose one who had been my friend.’ “The young man, without his father’s knowledge, got hold of the notes, and wrote a letter calculated to appeal to Henry Meiggs in its reference to the friendship of his early life. Then he sent the letter, with the notes inclosed, through Duncan, Sherman & Co., to Meiggs. In response there came from the contractor a manly and affection- ate letter, inclosing a draft for $15,000, being the principal and interest of the debt. “The father bought for his wife with the money a duplicate of Henry Meiggs’ silver service, and every Sunday night this is used in memory of the railroad king. The father and his son sent a joint letter to Mr. Meiggs, relating how they had disposed of the money, and he wrote back asking for leave to reim- purse them for the present, but this was declined. “When his son came to America he was instructed by his father to look up the Long Island acquaintance, and a warm friendship followed between the sons of the contractor and his old-time friend, whose loan has been repaid af- ter forty years.”’—New York Sun. __ + oo IMogical Logic. I have heard droll specimens of il- logical reasoning. The following are two instances: A married lady with a family, who lived in a villa in the ex- terior environs of London was asked why she was at the expense of keeping a cow, seeing that it would be surely much cheaper to buy milk forthe house- hold. ‘*Well,” said she in reply, “‘we keep the cow because we have a field quite at hand, which answers very nicely.”? “‘But,’? was the rejoinder, “why do you rent the field?” The answer was: ‘Because, you know, we have got the cow!’’—The other instance occurred in my young days st Peebles. A lady in reduced circumstances men- tioned to a friend that she had just ar- ranged to rent a house belonging to a baker in the town. The friend was somewhat surprised at the announce- ment, considering the lady’s circum- stances, and asked if the expense would not be too much for her. ‘Oh, not at ali,”’ was the answer; «+we'll take bread for the rent.—Dr. R. Chambers. oo Yonkers editors are_ proverbial for their gailantry to the fair sex. but one of them got discouraged on New Year's Day and swore off. He found one. of the 160-pound fairies of his city trying to pick her way across & muddy street. What else could he do? He took her in his arms and landed her high and dry-shod on the other side, when she sm: ly exclaimed: “Oh, that is too lovely for anything. Let’s go back.” That editor has gone into winter quar- ters.— Lowell (aless.) Press. —— ‘The rent roll of the Astor estate for 1884 is about $3,000,000, National BAT COUNTY Bank, OF BUTLER, MO.

To be sure it was not unanimous, about 100 delegates in an assembly ot about 450 having refused to yote for him under any ci what- Nevertheless, it is a cumstances ever. nomina- tion, and a man **who goes into the field’? (and we use the word here in the sense in which racing men em-| ploy it) with two nominations to his credit and three or four more about to full due is not to be despised as a candidate. It 1s very well under stood that Butler proposes to be him- self ‘‘the field’’—the Republican nomination being the only one which he has not reached outafter. There were murmurs and even bolts trom the Anti-Monopoly Convention in Chicago, and some of the ring- streaked and speckled delegates ot the motly throng vowed that the con vention had been corruptly ‘fixed’ Butler. But the for redoubtable ex-Governor of Massachusetts ought | to be able to silence these and other | cavilers. Gen. Ben Butler is squarest men in the world and the one of the treest trom humbug. — He is willing to be President, and he says so to He opinions of his own and he avows everybody who asks him has them likea man. Some ot them are popular and some are not; but this makes no difference to Butler.
