PUNOITS POT-POURRI POUR RIRE.

No woman is a beauty to her femme-de-chambre.
A lawyor's carriage is only a legal con veyance—and it is
the client, as often as it stops at his door, that pays for the
drawing up of it.
Most Golden Calves, when thrown into the crucible of
Time, turn out to be no better than Pigs of Lead !
Life is a Romance, of which a Coquette never tires of
turning over a new leaf.
Mock no roan for his snub nose, for you never can tell
what may turn up.
A character, like a kettle, once mended, always wants
mending.
Be kind even in your reproofs' and reserve them till the
morning. No ono can sleep well who goes to bed with a
flea in his ear.

The man who is fond of staking his reputation upon the
smallest trifle, generally retires from the contest before he
is called upon to deposit his stake.

Life is full of contradictions—but Woman takes very
good care that we shall never hoar the last of it.
It is wrong to judge men by trifles. The man, yester-
day, who kept the dinner waiting half-an-hour, keeps his
mother-in-law !—Punch.

A beautiful window of stained glass has been placed

ports present proportionate results.

It is stated that Lord Brougham's motive for declin-
ing the Chancellorship of the London University was,
that his lordship, holding the office of President of

the Chinese, with a view to remove the notion so corn

people.
