A Sick Congressman.

The other evening the little daughter of a
congressman was paying visit at neigh
bors, and the respective mothers were talk
ing of physical ailments and their remedies.
After while the little girl saw an opportu-
nifty to make remark
"My papa" she said, "always drinks
whisky when he is sick"
Then she stopped for a minute, her eyes
softened and saddened and she continued
slowly:
GAnd poor papa is sick nearly all the
time. Nv ashington Critic.

Turn of the Tide.

AT THE sEAsHoRE. JULY 1, 1886.
The moaning of the tide hear
AS of old ocean sobs;
Its heart seems beating loud and clear
With ceaseless, mighty throbs.
Upon the beach loving pair
Are sitting side by side;
Her hands are toying with his hair
For she is still bride.
p. NJ AT HOME, JUNE 90 1856
She welcomes him with outstretched arms
He tries in vain to dodge;
His breath is stronger than her charms,
For he has been to lolge.
Her hands toy with his hair fear
'ris more in wrath than pride;
Though far from oceans shore, hear
The moaning of the "tied." The Judge.

Chump" on a Railroad Train.
l Just do like 10 run across an Englishman
who is fresh to this country and determined
to combat American ideas He Is good deal
better company than an American would be
In Europe. Such chap rode with us from
Vicksburg over to jackson.
Excuse me, ye know" he began as the
conductor came along, "but I'd like a COM
partment to myself"
There was no place to put him except in
the baggage car, and when this was ascer-
tained he replied:
"Ah, well, Pm no bloomin' chump, ye
knowl Is this hair line railroad1"
Never heard that it was" said the con-
ductor.
"Then why didn't they direct me to the
hair linei What's the use, ye know, in a
fellow creeping and twisting all over the
country to fetch up at some place which is
on hair linel"
We had no sooner got him quieted down
on that than he began to find fault with the
scenery along the road.
"Its devlish awkward, ye know, to be gaz'
Ing at nothing but pine forest" he broke
out. "lf there are no mountains, cliffs, val
leys or pretty villages. why not go to work
and provide theml They can't expect fel-
low to put up with such as this and go over
the route another time"
We rubbed him down gently, and had re-
stored his good nature when we side tracked
for ten minutes. for the other train to pass.
"rm no bloomin' chump, ye know" he be-
gan at the end of two minutes, "but l Ger.
tainly protest against this delay. If there
is only one track, who is to blame for it7 Ii
my valuable time to be taken up in waiting
here, because the other train is not on timei
In tho first place, there is no hair line
then there are no compartments; then the
scenery sets one crazy; then we must switch
off and submit to delay. Gents, observe thai

Old love letters are much like cold soup.
A love letter that telegraphs delightful
