what Josh billings says.

Men talk about drinking ram TO drown
their sorrogs Ii il cheaper, and mutch
surer way to drown themselves in mil
pond. n0se
Temptashuns are necessary; a man
kant even tell whether he IL honest or
not until he haz been tempted.
A perfectly natural man IL generally
a perfectly honest one.
1t IL grate deal better to be ignorant
than to kno, and beleaf, what amt so.
Experience ackts on some people Just
as it duz on bull tarier, he don't fairly
git over one whipping before he goes in
for another. ,.t
Thare IL nobody who gifts SO low down
in the ditch but what he thinks tharo il
sum one lower down thanhe IL
Anger allwuss hurts us more than it
duz things we git mad at
Avarice eats up every other quality ov
the harte, good, bad and indiffrent
Most all very cunning men have a
speshiality, and they are generally az
dull in other things as they are sharp in
that.
Next to doing man an injury, in
point of meanness, IL to do him bene-
fit, and then continually remind him
ov it.
When a man finds fault with himself,
he expekts you will kontradikt him, not
koincide with him.
A good karakter IL allwuss gained bi
inches, but IL often lost in one chunk.
Humility may not make what the
world makes a crate man, but it will
make what God calls a good one.
Reazon often makes mistakes, but
Conscience never duz.
It takes very wize man to be thoroly
kontented; phools are ever az oneasy
and dissatisfied az hornets are
Mummy IL responsible for most ov the
dirty work that haz been done in this
world.

MY LOVE.
BY GERALD MASSEY.

No jewelled beauty is my love,
Yet in her earnest face
There's such world of tenderness,
She needs no other grace.
Her smiles and voice around my life
In light and music. twine,
And dear. oh, very dear to me
Is this sweet love OF mihel
Oh joyl to know there IS one fond heart
Beats ever true to me;
1t sets mine leaping like Tyre,
In sweetest melody.
My soul upsprings, deity
To hear her voice divine,
And dear, oh very dear to mo

Twas all for her | trow;
And il | win Fame's vietor-wreath,
I'll twine it on her brow.
There may be forms more beautiful,
And souls Of SUMMER shine,
But none, oh. none so dear to me
As this sweet love of minea

George Washington wore false teeth;
his constant efforts to keep them in
place gave his mouth the stern, com
pressed look that appears in all his por-

to think that the wrangle which it seems
must go on forever over some dead
President may be transferred by this
statement from Lincoln's soul to Wash
