A wealthy bachelor, having had one or
two lawsuits for breach of promise. now
replies to a young lady who "wishes a
few minutes" private conversation :
mo you don't madam. 1t cuts me to
the heart to be compelled to doubt the
honornableness of your intentions, but
that sort of thing is played out. My
rule is imperative and if you have any
business with me it must be transacted
in the presence of two witnesses.
A newly married couple attended one
of the fashionable churches in Boston
last Sabbath, and to the surprise of those
in the vicinity where the party were
seated, the bride fell fast asleep. Her
friends laughed at her for her sleepy
appearance when she excused herself
by saying that her rest of late had been
much disturbed.
A bashful youth was lamenting to
his paternal progenitor the ordeal of
popping the question.
"Pooh !" said the patriarch, chow
do you think I managed ?"
You'd better talk" responded the
hopeful ''you married mother, and
I've got to marry strange gal y
"We see," said the editor of a news
paper in Tennessee, "that the sheriff has
advertised the Argus Office for sale, dur

it, he can do more than we could. Like

said Mr.. Swink, "but the truth is, I've
not got the blood to spare.
A wife in San Francisco lately put
petition for divorce in the court on the
ground that her husband was "con-
founded fool" The court would not
admit the plea, because almost every
married man would be liable to the
same imputation.
