FUH HLAsMa.


A humorously inclined correspondent
has sent several laaghable tit-bits t
the REPUBLICAN fof publication, ant
he first tells how . debt Of $50 can b<
paid with %.
Mr.. A. sitting In his parlor with Mrs
A. AMI four others. Mr.. A. hands Mrs.
A s. and says, here is s. owe you on
bill of $40. Mrs. A. turns to Mrs. B
hands her the IS and says here is s. or
the bill Of $40 owe you. Mrs. B. turns
to Mrs. G. and handing her the IS says
| give you this on the bill Of $40 owe
you. Mrs. q. then bands the IS to Mr..
q. saying give you this on the bill OF
$40 | owe you. Mr. G. then turns to
Mr.. A. saying, l will give you this on
the bill OF $40 owe you, and then the
IS goes a ound again until the bill OF
$50 is pad.
Here is another puzzler. No person
can be just as old again al another but
once in life time. For example, l ain
70 and my cousin is 40, but If we live to
be a hundred 1t can never happen
again.
Captain A. often tells of the green
hess OF his hands on board OF his vessel.
One day being tired, he said to Sam,
tho colOred man, ''6Am, you mind the
helm awhile while take nap, but II
q squall comes, Call me up."
"Al right SIR" says Sam.
After an hour or 30 the Captain came
up, when Sam said, Captain wat you
ca'l a syngalm ?"
"Why big wind, you goose
so, well dem Cap, he come along and
gone and took our jib long wild lm."
One of the Captains men was told to
get q pole and push the vessel from the
shore, ~hen be- put the pole against the
mast of the vessel and pushed with all
his strength.
A friend of mine went West and
married and settled there Being in the
neighborhood called on bim. Just as
l rode up to the gaze his wife came to
the door and called loudly to her hus.
band, who was in the other end of the
garden, "Tom, Tom, come and get
your supper" "Yes, 'saysI, IL will"
and jumped off my horse and made for
the door and the wife made for the gar
den in double quick time. Soon my
friend Tom came and we had good
laugh and jolly time over the supper
together.
One night while travelling In Texas,
Ihad to sle,p Ia an old shauty and was
told to look Ou: for horse thieves. l
said would make sure of my horse, SO
pulled the strap through the window,
tied it to my arm and went to sleep.
In the morning had part OF the strap
left nut my horse WAS missing.
The following is aBtory hatappeared
in the Repub icaa some 25 years ago
and is as gOod now as it was then:
There was a preacher went to reach
funeral sermon iu The country. He
called on good sister by the way and
she insisted in putting some sausage in
his pocket. While he was in the grave
yard the dogs pestertd kim very much
by trying to get the sausage GU. OF his
pocket. In the evening he went up
into tho pulpit to preach. While
standing there brother went up the
steps and pulled at his coat tail. The
poor parson, kicked with all his might
and sent the brother tunbling down
the steps, and without looking to see
what he had done he said; Friends
excuse me, but that dog has pes,erei
me ever since | came on the premises. "
