The ClarksvilIe Tobacco Leaf tells
the following good one on Hobbs, the
ex-Comptroller:
Capt, Wheat, of Nashville, Deputy
United States Marshal, was down in
Humphreys county lately, and met IN
the road Felix DCmoville, of Nash
vile. Each was astonished to see
the other, and after their salutations.
Capt. Wheat was about 20 move on,
when Mr.. Demoville asked him 10 re
main few moments, rs Mr.. Hobbs
was Just over the hill and would be
up in a few minutes. In n short
time Hobbs came up with guns and
fishing tackle, for Hobbs, be it known
is a mighty Ramrod. and he and De-
moville were going fishing and
hunting.
Hobbs knew the Marshal and was
astonished to see him, the more so
when Demoville began to curse the
luck that had brought the Marshal to
interrupt his sport after going al, the
way from Nashville to have a quiet
fish, giving Hobbs to understand
without saying so that the Marshal
was after his body. ~.
Hobbs grew wild and grave, and
finally took his hat off and said,
Capt. Wheat, you need apprehend
no danger from me. | surrender, sir,
/ shall make no resistance" Fortu-
nately they were "only icsting," and
as Hobbs can jest we suppose he can
take Joke.

WHY SOME People ARE Pooh
Cream is allowed to mould and spoil.
Silver spoons are used to scrape ket-
ties. The scrubbing brush is left in
the water. White-handled knives
are thrown into hot water. Brooms
are never hung up, and are soon
spoiled, Dish-cloths are hung where
mice can destroy. Tubs are left in
the sun to dry and fall apart. Clothes
arc hung on the line TO whip to pieces
in the wind. The pie crust Is allowed
to sour, instead of making few tarts
for tea. Dried fruit is not taken care
of in season, and becomes wormy.
Vegetables are thrown away that
would do to warm for breakfast. The
cork is left out of the sugar Jar, and
the flies take possession. Coffee, tea,
pepper and spices are left to stand
open and lose their strength. Pork
spoiIs for the want of salt, and beef
because the brine wants scalding.

A PAT REJoINDER. At Oxford some
twenty years ago, a tutor of one Of
the colleges limped in his walk
Stopping one day last summer at q
railway station, he was accosted by 4
we'll known politician, who recognized
him, and asked him if he was not the
chaplain of - College at such q
time, naming the year. The doctor
replied that he was.
Il was there" said the interroga-
tor, "and knew you by your limp"
"Well, said the doctor, sit seems
my limping made a deeper impress
sion than my preaching.
'Ah, doctor" was the reply, with
ready wit, il is the highest compile
ment We can pay minister TO say
that he is known by his walk rather
than by his conversation.

KIND WORDS ARE POWERFUL. - Some
days are dark, even when the sun
shines brightly. Light does not pen
citrate the clouded vision, nor warmth
reach the chilled heart. Often when
morning promises a happy day and
ones whole being thrills with a deli
cious sense of life, hope, yigor and
gratitude, at noon all has changed.
and evening closes a very wretched
day, wherein the oft-repeated query
has presented itself. "What is the use
of living?"
Dispositions naturally inclined to
such depression cannot at times be
prevented from having gloomy hours.
But sanguine temperaments are not
given to 'the blues" unless things
90 very wrong, and friends prove uu-
kind. Frequently a few words OF
encouragement dispel deep shadows
from darkened pathways, which only
lack the light of human sympathy to
be as clear as midday.-EIm ORION.

KISSING AND DAMAGES Recently
in Brooklyn a lady obtained S15, OO0
damages from n gentleman for q breach
of promise to marry her. It was not
argued in Court that he had asked her
to marry, or had even made love to
her, but that he squeezed her hand
and kissed her. This, the Court held,
was equivalent to Il verbal address.
We mention this case rs a warming,
to our unmarried readers, of the le-
gal danger of kissing. Ii means mat.
rimony or heavy damages. They can
