BACKWARD SPELL.-An old story tells us
how an illiterate sailor, being about to ship
on board her majesty's ship Gorgon, spelt out
the name backward, and retired in disgust at
the idea of serving in vessel which had "No
Grog" written on her bows.

DIDN'T Kiss HER.-A gentleman who
has been travelling in the lower counties, says
the San Antonio, CAL, Herald, tells the fol-
lowing amusing story: He was stopping over
night at a house where the partition walls
were particularly thin. The adjoining room
was occupied by mother and her daughter.
After retiring the mother began to rebuke the
daughter for an alleged partiality to some
body named John, which soft Impeachment
the daughter denied vigorously:
"But," said the mother, 81 saw him kissing
you at the cow-pen, yesterday morning, Aman'
da"
"No, ma, he wasn't kissing me at all"
"Why did you have your head so close up
to his for you deceivin' critter.'
"Well, you see, ma, I had been eating pit
alias (the fruit of species of cactus,) and you
see, ma, I got some the prickles in my lips
and-and-
"And what, you wicked critter."
"And l couldn't get them out myself, you
know, and John pulled them out with his
teeth-but he didn't kiss me nary time"

THE MAGRUDER FAMILY.-I called at
Magruder's the other morning, on my way
down town, and, as I know them we'll, en-
tered the side door without knocking. [ was
shocked to find Mr.. Magruder PROSTATE on
the floor, while Mrs. Magruder sat on his
chest, and rumbled among his hair, as she
bumped his head on the boards, and scolded
him vigorously. They rose when l came in,
and Magruder, as he wiped the blood from his
nose, tried to pretend it was only a joke. But
Mrs. Magruder interrupted him:
"Joke? Joke? should think not. was
giving him dressing down. He wanted to
have family prayers before breakfast, and /
was determined to have them afterward, and
as he threw the Bible at me, and hit Mary
Jane with the hymn book, I soused down on
him. If can't rule this house, I'll know
why. Pick up them Scriptures and have
prayers. You hear me, Magruder? It's
more trouble regulatin' the piety Of this fam
lily than runnin' a saw-mill. Mary Jane
give your pa that hymn book"
I left before the exercises began.

Perfectly Simple in Construction!
Very Strong and Durable!

Uses Central Fire Metallic or Paper Cartridges
AT THE OPTION OF PURCHASERS!
1t has been fOu years before the public, and
its success is really remarkable. Its superiority
over all others, and the claims of the manufHC-

IA CTS:
There are more Parker Guns in the hands of
American SpOrtmcn than any Foreign brcech-
loader.
There arc three times as many Parker Guusin
the hands Of American sportmen as there are of
any other American made breeCl-lOader.
At the Utica convention of the New York State
SpOrtmen's Association, the number of sports
men who used the Parker gun was equal to that
of all others who used central fire brecch load
crS, of both American and Foreign make com
bined.
While the Parker gun is So often reported as
distinguishing itself at large shoots throughout
the country, it is noticeable that few such reports
are made Of any other gun
The lowest price Parker guns arc within reach
of those of moderate means, While they are i'll
every way a thoroughly good gun.
The higher grade Parker guns arc gotten upin
