The Effects of 1t.

A saloon keeper stood behind his bar in
Aurora. In walked stranger who enquired:
"Can you inform me what effect lemon
ade has upon the mental system?"
''It has good effect where you pay for
it" was the reply:
"And where you don't?"
"The effect is transferred from the mental
to the physical system, and you go out of
here with something kicking you forty times
per minute"
"Thanks, sir, bowed the stranger back
believe in summer drinks.
He went down the street, stole two harvest
apples, and found the effect to be just the
same as if he had taken lemonade. When the
"machine F" ceased kicking, the stranger re-
marked:
"Between being kicked for three cents or
for ten cents, it is my duty to be kicked for
ten cents, and that shall be my motto here
after"

A WATERFORD stove merchant awoke at
dead of night to find the muzzles of three re-
volvers leveled at him and eight masked bur-
glars in his room. "Boys, said he, 81 give
up; put away your pistols, you have me at a
disadvantage" They said they were sorry
to "trouble him, but they were working men
out of employment and needed money"
call right boys; 60 ahead!" They took his
wallet and watch, ransacked his nephew's
pockets, cleared off ; the sideboard, a threw the
into fainting fit, and ended with threat to
fire the house. The family were SO thor
oughly demoralized by the terrors of the
night that they neglected to inform the po-
lice until 9 o'clock in the morning.
