HIS INTEREST IN THE RENT

TIMOTHY WOODRUFF was engaged in
L conversation with some friends in Kings
ton New-York, when one of the party referred
to the fact that extremely wealthy old man
in the town had recently exhibited signs of
incipient philanthropy.
Why" said the friend, do you know that
yesterday he was taking around petition
for the purpose of raising funds to enable poor
woman to pay her rent?"
"Oh," said Woodruff. 81 happen to know

What do you call that last fish you
caught?" the doctor asked.
OATS Baptis' fish, sah," the old man
replied.

BUTLER AND THE JUDGE

THE last time General Butler was in Wash
L ington he was closeted with Senator
Eaton. He held some papers in his hand
in such way that an underscored marginal
note, Insult the Judge" caught Eaton's
eye, and he asked what it meant.
It's case before Judge Shaw" Butler
replied. =" If only rouse his indignation,
he is SO just-painfully just-that he will
give me the case for fear he is being biased
against me by his personal feelings"

John Jones he was a thrifty man,
And Mrs. Jones was too
That is to say,
Good Mrs. J.
Was thrifty and would do
Her share in saving; but she thought
Her husband was bit too taut.
He kept the purse-strings tied around
His fingers in twist,
And every time
She got dime
She had to force his fist
Don't spend so much" he'd always say;
We're saving for a rainy day"
John owned lot of property
In buildings, farms and grain.
With stock galore
And stuff in store;
But never stopped the strain
To gather in all he could get
Against the day that might be wet.

Her bonnet had
Grown old and sad,
Her clothes made people stare;
But John stayed in his narrow way,
And harped upon the rainy day
The years went by. John saved and
Until the "Wet Spring" came,
When floods poured down
On farm and town,
And washed away the same,
Including Johns possessions, which
By now had made him very rich.
John and his wife took to the hills
To save themselves, and he
Began to swear
And rip and tear
At his adversely.
Indeed, it was enough to cause
A man to break the ten first laws.
But Mrs. J. was less disturbed.
And as she shook her head
At Johns distress
And wickedness
In swearing SO, she said: /:
Now John, don't carry on that way;
You saved it for a rainy day"
