ADJECTIVES WANTED.-Reporters who
have to visit lorty or fifty fairs every year, are
DESTROYS that somebody should invent few
more adjectjves for special use on such occa-
sions. Suppose, says the Hartford Times,
that one is passing through hall, in which
are the usual variety of articles ST en- in pub
lie exhibitions at faiis, and he desires to
make notice OF few things; he must do it
IN this way:
Jacob Barker exhibits fine pair of shoe
buckles, very handsomely finished"
Mrs. McDou2le shows an elegant spread
beautifully wrought in colors."
John Wilkins exhibits a magnificent
work-box, with splendid cover inlaid with
pearl"
All that fellow can say after this is mere
Iy to repeat what has been said. # Miss
BliTkins has an afghan on exhibition it must
either be handsome, elegant, beautiful, mag
nihcent or Splendid and where there ale at
least twenty five exhibitors TO be mentioned
the repetition is annoying Now If somebody
will only give us a few more descriptive
words we shall be all right. II that cannot
br done, why will not the public tolerate a
little infringement upon the English, for the
sake OF the reporters? for instance let
Smith, OF the Bungertown Bogus, having ex-
hausted the regular vocabulary, proceed in
his report something after the following
fashion:
"Squisgns, Of Podunk, had big basket of
the bulliest pink-eye potatoes we ever saw.
Miss Nettles showed in the gol-darndedest
cushion that was ever made by feminine
hands.
"On table were some peaches raised by
MT Squint-universally pronounced the real
hunkadory.
"Some crochet work by Miss Whafiie was
heavy for needle business, and was said to be
real buster"
Something of of this kind would relieve
the monotony of this stupid sameness we
are accustomed to see in reporting; and
would probably sell a great many papers
and some exhibitors.

How TO MAKE A CEMENT FOR SToyEs.-
Take fine salt one part, and two parts of fresh
hardwood ashes: mix well t1eether,then take
cold water, and mix into mortar. Apply to
the crack either warm or cold, and you have
cement which will answer all common pur-
poses, and will be very useful where the stove
pipe joints are not as tight as is desirable.
Still Another.-Take iron filings, and mix
TO about the consistency of putty tor glazing
with white lead md inseed oil Fill in the
joints as securely as possible. while the stove
is cold, and let it stand a day or Two before
using.

Mrs. Stephens, in her Monthly Magazine,
gives certain class of men, the like of whom
are seen in every community, the benefit OF
her opinion, as follows:
Our own private opinion of the lady's man
Is, that he IS thoroughly contemptible'-a
sort of thing hardly worth thinking about
n handful of foam drifting over the wine Of
life, something not altogether unpleas ant to
the fancy, but OF no earthly use. A woman
of sense would as soon put to sea in man
of-war made OF shingles, or take up her resi-
slence in card house, as dream OF attaching
herself to lady-kiiler. Women worth the
name are seldom deceived into thinking a
lady's man the choicest specimen of his sex.
Whatever their ignorance may be. wonanly
intuition must tell them that the men who
live for a great object, and whose spirits
are so firmly knit that they are able to en-
counter the storms OF lile-men whose depth
and warmth OF feeling resemble the current
oil some mighty river, and not the pebbles on
its surface, who, if they love, are never smit-
ten by mere beauty OF form and features
that these men are more worthy even OF oc-
cupying their thoughts in idle moments than
the tops and men about town with whose at
tentlon they amuse themselves. Ii we were
no pride about him, although full of vanity !;
and it matters not to him what we broadly
affirm OF quietly insinuate. Soft and delicate
though he is, he is as impervious to ridicule
as hod carrier, and as regardless of honest
contempt as city alderman. Were you to
hand him this article, he would take it to
some social party, and read it aloud in the
most melllfluous voice, as an homage to his
own attraction"

Sea Sickness and PROFANITY.


Sea sickness is sad leveler to which the
strongest minds succun5, leaving nothing
but the desire to touch terrd.Hrmd again.
An eminent dramatic artist who mas recently
made y most successful tour in California, re-
Turned Eas+, Ly steamer. Scarcely had the
shin cot ont Of sight OF land before the Thes-
man was laiG by the heels with nal de mea'.
In the depths 0. his despair he called for the
CAPTAIN and when that worthy arrived, the
tra9edian SaZed at MN for few moments
and then asked:
AR re you the captain"
Il have the HONOR said the son Of Nep-
tune.
"Ver-ry well sir. | want you TO run this
blasted ship ashore. III pay you for her, nun,
engines and cargo"
The captain smiled ard told his unhappy
passenger it was impossible.
"Ve-rry well, sir-r-r. Tie her to rock,
then, and stop this blasted rolling"
Being assured that this was also impossible
the wretelied actor retired to his state-room,
and lying there in mortal agony, cursed the
sea and all that appertained to it, with oaths
both loud and deep.
Now, it SO happened that the Rev Mr..
Chadband. who had collected large amount
OF money in California to purchase fne-tooth
combs and tracts for the Digger Indians, was
on the way East to invest his funds. and &C.
cupied his state-room next the actors Hor-
rihed at the loars OF the sick lion, he walked
into the state-room Just as he let off another
Volley of anathemas, which extorted deep
groan from Chadband.
Hello" said the player, are you sick?"
"Sick at heart, brother was the response,
''to hear you use such language"
at is a Tad habit" said the wretched ar
fist, but d-n it, sir, here I've been turned
inside out tor three days, thrown up every
thing possible. and if I'm sick any longer,
curse me if | don't think shall throw up my
engagement in New York. Blast the seal"
"Don't, my dear sir, curse So Remember
One who was patient under much greater
suffelings than yours"
The tragedan rose to his full height, and
running his fingers through his hair. as he
chewed bis voice for moment, replied:
II do remember Him. sir r-r, and remem-
Der that when he was caught at sea He got
out and aydlked, and / wish could follow his
example, in that respect, at least"
Mr.. Chadband concluded that any more
missionary effort in that direction would not
be very profitable.
