UNFAIR ADVANTAGE.
“Henry,” said his father-in-law, as
he called his daughter’s spouse into
the library and locked the door,
“you have lived with me now for
over two years.”
“Yes, father.”
“In all that time I havn’t asked
you a penny for board."
“No’ sir.” (Wonderingly).
“In all your little family quarrels
I have always taken your part and
decided in tyour favor.”
“Always, sir.” *
“I have even paid some of your
bills.”
“A good many, father.”
'And in every way helped you to
get along.”
“You have been very kind, sir.”
“I have tried to be, my boy, and I
hope you appreciate it.”
“I do, sir.”
“Then the small favor I am about
to ask of you will no doubt be grant
ed?”
“Most certainly, sir."
“Thanks. Then I want you to tell
your mother-in-law that those ticket*
for the supper-club dance which she
picked up in my room this morning
must have accidentaly fallen out of
your pocket, and we’ll call it square!”
THERE’S A REASON.
Servant—A gendarme to see you,
sir.
Master—Show him into the draw
ing room.
Mistress—Into the drawing room?
Aren’t you too democratic?
.Master—Not at all. My overcoat
is hanging up in the kitchen.—Novy
Satirikon (Petrograd.)
The cat sat on the stool in the
butcher’s shop. People were buying,
bemoaning the prices and wishing
they didn’t have to get such meager
portions—but there was the grocer’s
to visit next and the fruit shop.
“Not quite 'so much liver,” said one
of the customers. “It’s so expensive
I can’t afford a big piece these days.”
“All right,” said the butcher cheer
fully, cutting off a g^od supply.
“This about what you want?”
And as the woman nodded, the cat
was given the extra piece of liver
she couldn’t afford to buy.
Surely the butcher’s cat is fortu
nate !
UNWELCOME GARNISHING.
Look here, waiter, there’s a piece
of leather in this sausage. I’m blow-
ed if I’m going to eat the harness
tool”—Snark’s Annual (London).
WAITING.
The children of the neighborhood
had been greatly interested by the
news of the arrival of a baby at the
Joneses’ and one of them put this
question to little Willie Jones.
"What is your new brother’s
name?”
“They heven’t found out yet.” re
plied Willie. “He can’t talk.”—Harp
ers Magazine.
DESCRIPTIVE.
Asked by his Sunday-school teach
er to write an essay upon Elisha, a
boy brought the following effusion
to his class on the next Sabbath:
"There was a man named Elisha.
He had some bears, and he lived in
a cave. Some boys tormented him.
He said, “If you keep on throwing
stones at me I’ll turn the bears on
you, and they’ll eat you up.’ And
they did, and he did, and the bears
did.”—London Fun.
AT THE SAME TIME.
“Whiskey has ruined the reputa
tion of many men.”
“Yes.” replied Broncho Bob, “and
at the same time I aint so sure (hat
a lot of • naturally no-account men
havn’t done their share to ruin the
reputation of whiskey."—ashington
Star.
DISAPPOINTED.
In a certain Western state two
farmers were conversing about their
periodical trips to town.
“How is it you no longer put up
a* the Golden Buck when you drive
tt> market?"
“Why, they are regular talke-ins,”
replied the second farmer. “Last win
ter, when I lodged there for the
night, they made a big fuss and gave
me a big bottle to take to bed with
me, and when I opened it, what d’ye
think it was. Nothing but hot
water.”—Argonaut.
ACCIDENTAL
Stonewall Jackson was not a man
to speak ill of another man without
reason. At a counsel of generals
early in the war one of them remark-
ea that Major Smith was wounded,
and would be unable to perform cer
tain duty
“Wounded!” said Jackson. “If that
It so it must have been by an acci
dental discharge of his duty!”—
Brooklyn Citizen.
THE STANDARD.
Mrs. Waytipp. I see your friend
Mrs. Bump is dead She wasn’t much
of a society woman, was she?
Mrs Blase: No, indeed. Why. she
didn’t leave enough ex-husbands to
act as pall-'bearers.
