HOg@ishness.

The Reno Gazette says: A reporter is
not ubiquitous, nor has he eyes all over
him like a potato. He has a sort OF mega
tive right to ask folks, if they "know any
thing going on" and when he gets a
surly answer as he jots it down in the
black book of his memory against the ILL
pred swine who snubs him, for he knows
mat a day of retribution will surely come,
when he can pile Goals of fire upon the
heads Of those who decline to give a civil
answer to a gentlemanly question. Itis
singular that these same r~eticent hogs
think more of a local item than any other
men do. If one OF them becomes the
father OF a scrawny baby with a mouth big
enough to feed with a fire shovel, he wants
the reporter to say it is a beautiful ten
FOUNDER, with flowing hair and a full set
Of teeth.

DR.. Jessup has at present the monopoly
of the drawers" by which teeth are ex-
traoted in Tuscarora. The Times-Review
tells Of a strange female patient he had to
deal with the other day:
Amiddle-aged lady entered his Office, seek
ing relief from the terrific pain that &C.
companies an aching tooth, and was seated
in the luxurious chair, which OF itself has
almost the power, from its easy and luxu-
rious upholstering, to soothe and comfort
tooth-troubling humanity. She folded
her arms across her breast and as she
gazed pleadingly into the doctors face,
said:
"Will it hurt me, Doctor"
ooh, no." replied the disciple of forceps
and flling-irons, mot at all il you will
only sit still"
"But, Doctor" continued the %garrulous
patient, as she leaned back and put her
head upon the rest, 'I'm afraid you may
make a mistake"
600 not alarm yourself, madam, I am
thoroughly acquainted with my profess
sion." And he drew from a little drawer
an ugly piece Of steel and approached the
woman.
"But, Doctor, I want you to be very
careful to not hurt. The last time ! went
to a dentist, he had just commenced pull
ing with terrific force, when his drawers
slipped off and he hurt me awfully. Now,
don't you do it,"

THE FROM GATE,
A Great Improvement i'm the MAN.
ner of DOdging s.The Old Man,

ner of DOdging s'The Old Man,
New York Times.
A benefcent scientific journal has an ac-
count.of a newly invented gate which will
supply a great want, since it is just the
sort of improvement upon the present
style of gate which has been SO long
needed. The front gate has always been
the favorite lounging-place for lovers. The
front gate is in an exposed situation. 1t is
visible to all who pass along the street,
and is in most cases commanded by front
windows, from which the father may at
any time make observations. Why
lovers should prefer the broad publicity of
a gate in such a situation to the safe re-
tirement of a seat under the s%hrubbery, is
something that science cannot find out.
Nevertheless, this very publicity has its
advantages in the eyes of the young peo-
pie. An interview at the front gate has
the air of an accidental meeting. The
young man happens to be passing, and the
young woman happens at the same mo-
ment to be swinging-on the gate. Thus
the pair may meet and interchange VOWS
and portable property without ex-
SltiuS ItulhThb Oh Lut pdTU VI
casual observers. Then there is on the
part of the young woman the opportunity
of being seen in conversation with a de-
sirable young man, a sight which she
knows must fill the bosoms Of other girls
with envy and rage. The quiet seat under
the shrubbery is all very we'll, but it is not
always easy to explain the situation to an
intruding maiden aunt, and its very pri-
vacy prevents the other girls from being
tormented with jealousy. The new gate
swings both ways, and can be fastened
with a snap that cannot be opened unless
n has the secret of the combination"
If a hot-tempered and aggressive father,
with stogy boots, approaches while ayoung
man is deluging his sweetheart with bland
ishments, the gay youth can skip either
way, leaving the enraged old man to howl
on the wrong side Of the fence. Many
terrible scenes of blood and mangled gar
ments would have been avoided had this
beneicent variety of gate been in general
use years ago. The inventor is a noble
man, and young people, yet unborn, will
hang on his gate and call him blessed.

There were five of them together, and it
was late. They had been drinking.
Finally one Of them looked at the clock
and said
"What will our wives say when we go
homer"
"Let them say what they want to. Mine
will tell me to so to the mischief" re-
sponded No. 2.
"I1l tell you what we will do. Let us
meet here in the morning and tell our ex-
perience. Let the one who has refused to
do what his wife told him to do when he
got home, pay for this evenings entertain

'That's a good idea we will agree to
that" So the party broke up and went to
their respective homes.
Next morning they met at the appointed
place and began to tell their experiences.
Said No. l.:
"When 1 opened the door my wife was
awake. She said: "A pretty time of night
for you to be coming home. You had bet
ter go out and sleep in the pig pen, for

later, anyhow Rather than pay for all
We had drank last night, I did what she
told me to. That lets me out"
Next.
No. Q cleared his throat and said.
"When 1 got home I stumbled on a chair
and my wife called: There you are again,

up the children and stagger about for
awhile, so they can see what q drunken

Next.
No. 8 spoke up and saidG

Hadn't you better sit down in that dough?'
So I sat down in 1t. and that letg me out"
Next.
No. 4 said!
"I was humming a tune, and my wife
called out: There you are again. Hadn't

tainly, and began to sing as loud az /
could, but she told me to stop or she would
throw something at me, 80 I stopped. That

Next.
No. s looked very disconsolate. He said:
~ reckon I'll have to pay. My wife told
me to do something none Of you would
have done, if you had been in my place."
"What was it?"
"She said: so you thought you would
come at last. Now hadn't you better go
out to the we'll and drink a couple of buck
cts of water just to astonish your stomaeh?'
That was more than I had bargained for,
