Wit and Humor.

Ma. STARK was elected, or appointed, justice
Of the peace when DeKalb Co. was first organized
in Illinois. He lived in log house, and always
held his court at home; his wife kept his docket,
and attended all his courts to keep his minutes.
She was q helpmeet for him, and he courted to
some purpose when he got such q wife as Mrs.
Stark proved to be. One day when the room was
crowded and a trial going on, Mrs. Stark drop
ped her pencil on the floor and being unable to
find it, the justice roared out; "Stand back
stand back, say the Court has lost her pencil"
A young lady who lately gave an order to
a miiliner for a bonnet, said "You are to make
il plain, and at the same time smart, as l sit in
conspicuous place in the church."
Some one was telling IN lrishman that fellow
had eaten ten saucers of ice cream; Whereupon
Pat shook his head.-"So you don't believe it 2"
With nod, Pat answered; 81 behave in the
crane, but not in the saucers"
If an editor omits anything, he is lazy. If he
speaks Of things as they are, people get angry.
Ii he CLOSES over or smooths down the points, he
is hribed. If he calls things by their proper
names, he is unfit for the position Of an editor.
II he does not furnish his readers with jokes, he
is mullet. II he does, he is a rattle head, lacking
stability. II he condemns the wrong, he is o
good fellow, but lacks discretion. If he let's
wrongs and injuries go unmentioned, he is a
coward. If he exposes public man, he does it
to crafty spite-is the tool Of q clique, or be-
longs to the "Outs" Ifhe indulges in personali-
