The following proclamation by a
committee Of ladies who have suffered
from the evil complained of, we find
in the Gallon (O) Review:
Wanted !-150 Young men, more or
less, of all shapes and sizes, from the
tall and graceful dandy, with hair suf-
ficient OH his upper lip to stuff bar
ber's cushion, down to the little, bow
legged, freckled-f faced, carrot-headed
upstart. The object is to form corps
to be in attendance at the close of di-
vine service each Sabbath evening, to
stare at the ladies as they leave church,
aud to make delicate and gentlemanly
remarks on their persons and dress.
All who wish to enter Lhe above corps
will appear on the steps of the various
church doors next Sunday evening,
when they will be duly inspected, their
names, personal appearance and quail
ty of brains registered in a book kept
for that purpose. To prevent gen.
eral rush, we will state that no one
will be enlisted who possesses any in
tellectual capacity above that of a
well-bred donkey.
Signed, CoMMETTRE OF LADIES for
the suppression of an intoierable nui-
sance in Gallon.

got any money?
Traveler-No, sir.
Ferryman--Have you got any at
homer
Traveler-No sir.
Ferryman-Can you borrow any +?
Traveler-No.
Ferryman-Do YOU expect to get
any on the other sideP
Traveler-No sir.

stay where you are. for it makes little
difference which side you are on.

Alexander Eumas published some
time ago, In the daily Paris paper, a
novel in which the heroine, prosperous
and happy is assailed by consumption.
All the slow and grandual symptoms

felt for the heroine. 1.. -7sr. -.s-

Dumas changed his last chapter. His
heroine recovered and was happy.
