A Chicago young man was recently smit ten by a neighbor’s wife. She smote him with a rolling pin. The negro who bet $2.75 he could ride a mule with a pine-burr under the saddle, lost the money. He was followed to the tomb by a very large enthusiastic au dience. Josh Billings says : “I will state for the information ot those who haven’t had a chance to lay in iuscct wisdum as freely as I have, that one single hornet who feels well, will break up a whole camp meet ing-” “Woman is a delusion, Madam !” ex claimed a crusty old bachelor to a witty old lady. “And man is always bugging some delusion or other,” was the quick re tort. A Western paper chronicles an item briefly thus; “Mrs. John Baggs, of Omaha, has left Mr. John Baggs, taking the money bags, and leaving John to hold the little empty Baggs.” The epitaphs of Dakota papers are most pathetic. Jim Barrett had been shoveling snow, from which he caught a bad cold, which turned into fever. The fever settled Jim’s mundane affairs, and a local paper says most affectingly in his obituary: “He won’t have to shovel snow in the country he has gone to.” A quiet man rang a door-bell on a city street one night. “Is the gentleman in ?” he asked of a servant. “I don’t know. Did you wish to see him particularly ?” “Oh, no, not very particularly; I merely wished to tell him that his house was on fire.” “That man,” said a wag, “came to Nash ua forty yeors ago, purchased a basket, and commenced gathering rags. How much do you suppose he is worth now ?” It was a conundrum we could not answer. “Noth ing,” he continued ofter a pause, “and owes lor the basket.” “Now, my young friends, suppose 12 men buy 24 bushels of wheat to be divided equally, how many bushels is that for each? Boldest of the boys—“ Please, sir, we’ve not gone that far.” “How is that ? Your teacher told mtf you had learned all of the first four rules.” Boy—“ Yes, sir, but we have always done our sums in po tatoes or turnipg —we have never yet bad wheat,” “Say, hallo, there —how do you sell wood ?” “By the cord.” “Pshaw —how long has it been cut ?” “Four feet.” “How dumb —I mean how long is it since yout cut it ?” “No longer than it is now.” “See here old fellow, you’re too bright to live long.” A NAUGHTY LITTLE GIRL'S VIEW OF LIFE. Tbs only a little girl, but I think I have as much right to say what I want to about things as a boy. I ha;e boys; they’re so mean ; they always grab all the strawberries at the dinner-table, and never tell us when they’re, going to have any run. Only I like Rogers. The other day Gus told me he was going to let off some fireworks, and hie let Bessie Nettle and me go and look at them. All of us live in a hotel, and his mother’s room has a window with a balcony. His mother was gone out to buy some creme de Us to put on her face, and he’d went and got eleven boxes of lucifer matches, and ev er so many pieces of custile soap ; he stealed them from the housekeeper. Just when she went to put them into her closet, Gus went and told her Mrs. Nettle wanted her a minute, and, while she was gone, he grab bed the soap and matches, and when she came back, he watched her ; and she got real mad, and she scolded Della (that is the chambermaid), and said she knowed she did it, and I was real glad, because when I was turning somersets on my mother’s bed, the other day, Della slapped me and said she wasn’t going to make the bed two times to please me; then Bessie and me sticked the matches in the soap like tenpins, and Gus fired them off, and they blazed like anything and they made an awful smell, and Gus went and turned a little gas on, so’s his mother would think it was that. One day I went into the parlor, and creeped under the sofa, and there wasn’t uo body there. They don’t let dogs nor chil dren go into the parlor, and I think it’s real mean ; and I had to creep under the sofa, so nobody could see me; and Mr. Boyce came in, and Miss Jackson; she said, one day, that children was worse nui sance than dogs. And Mr. Boyce and Miss Jackson came in, and sitted down on the sofa ; and he said : “0, Louisa, Ido love you so much !” and then he kissed her, for I heard it smack. And then she said: “0, Thomas, I do wish I could believe you; don’t you never kiss anybody else ?” And he said : “No, dearest,” and I yelled out: “Oh, what a big story !” for I saw him kiss Bessie Nettle’s nurse, in the hall, one night when the gas was turned down. Didn’t he jump up ! you bet; and he pulled me out and tored my frock, and he said : “Oh, you wicked child ! Where do you expect to go to for telling such stories ? Gus Rogers’ mother had a lunch party in her parlor, and they had champagne, and they never gave him any ; and when his mother wasn’t looking, he found a bottle halt full on the sideboard, and he stealed it, and took it in our nursery; and Mary wasn’t there, and Gus and me drinked it out of the glass Mary brushes her teeth in ; and it was real nice; and we looked in Mary’s ward robe and found her frock she goes to church in ; and Gus put it on, and Mary’s bonnet, too; and we went in the hall, and we tum bled down and tored Mary’s frock, and made my nose bleed ; and Gus said : “Oh, there’s a earthquake !” cause we couldn’t stand up; and you should see how the house did go up and down—awful! and Gus and me laid down on the carpet, and the housekeeper picked me up and tooked me to my moth er’s room, and my mother said : “Oh, my ! what have you been doing?” and I said : “Oh, Lord ! I drinked champagne out of Gus Rogers’ mother’s bottle, in the glass that Mary brushes her teeth in.” And the housekeeper says : “Oh, my goodness gra cious ! that child’s as tight as bricks !” and I said : “You bet—bully for you?” and then I was awful sick and I’ve forgot what else. “ALL UANDS BELOW." A good story is told of a parrott who had always lived on board a ship but who es caped at one of the southern ports and took refuge in an old church. Soon after the congregation assembled, and the minister began preaching to them in his earnest fash ion, saying there was no virtue in them, that every one of them would go to hell, unless they speedily repented. Just as he spoke, up spoke the parrot from his hiding place : “All hands below !” To say that “all hands” were startled, would be a mild way of putting it. The pe culiar voice, and unknown source, had much more effect on them than the person’s voice ever had. He waited a moment, and then a shade or two paler, he repeated the warn ing. “All hands below !” again rang out from somewhere. The preacher started from his pulpit, and looked anxiously around, inquiring if any body had spoken. “All hands below !” was the only reply, at which the ertire panic stricken congre gation got up, and a moment after they all bolted for the doors, the preacher trying his best to be first, and during the time the mis chievous bird kept up his yelling : “All hands below 1” 1 There was one old woman there who was r ame, and could not get out so fast as the jest, and in a short time she was letc entire -1 y alone. Just as she was about to hobble out, the parrot flew down, and alighting on her shoulder, again yelled in her ear : “All hands below !” No, no, Mister Devil!” shrieked the old woman, “you can’t mean me. I don’t belong here. Igo to the other church across the way.” A Norwich gentleman of broad social views wrote a note to the handmaid who wrestles with his crockery, inviting her to take a sleighride with him. Unfortunately the slave was unable to read, and brought the note to the wife of his bosom to deci pher. Wretched and heart-sick, the miser able woman waited in agonizing suspense till her husband’s return, aryl the family physician says he didn’t consider it possible for a delicate female to do so much damage.

Ayer’s Ague Cure, For Fever and Ague, Intermittent Fe ver, Chill Fevev, Bemittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fe ver, &c., ana indeed all the affections which arise from malarious, marsh, or miasmatic poisons. " rej Ijrjh No one remedy is louder hB 90 called for by the necessities of the American people than kII bBT ] a sure BQ d safe cure for JeYl fffxy Fever anil Ague. Such we are now enabled to offer, w with a perfect certainty that it will eradicate the disease, and with assur ance, founded on proof, that no harm can arise from its use in any quantity. That which protects from or prevents this disorder must be of immense service in the communities where it prevails. Prevention is better than cure; for the patient escapes the risk which he must run in violent attacks of this baleful distemper. This “Cure” expels the miasmatic poison of Fever and from the system, and prevents the develop ment of the disease, if taken on the first approach of its premonitory symptoms. A great superiority of this remedy over any other ever discovered for the speedy and cer tain cure of Intennittents is, that it contains no Quinine or mineral; consequently it pro duces no quinism or other injurious effects whatever upon the constitution. Those cured by it are left as healthy as if they had never had the disease. J?ever and Apne is not alone the con sequence of the miasmatic poison. A great variety of disorders arise from its irritation, among which are Neuralgia, llbeiima ti*m, Gout, Headache, lilindneo, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asth ma, Palpitation, Painful Affection of the Spleen, Hysterica, Pain in the Bowel., Colic, Paralysis, and derange ment of the Stomach, all of which, when originating in this cause, put on the inter mittent type, or become periodical. This “Cure” expels the poison from the blood, and consequently cures them all alike. It is an invaluable protection to immigrants and persons travelling or temporarily residing in the malarious districts. If taken occasion ally or daily while exposed to the infection, that will be excreted from the system, and cannot accumulate in sufficient quantity to ripen into disease. Hence it is even more valuable for protection than cure; and few will ever suffer from Intermittent® if they avail themselves of the protection this rem edy affords. For Liver Complaints, arising fVom torpid ity of the Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stimulating the Liver into healthy activity, and producing many truly remarkable cures, where other medicines fail.

Ayer’s Cathartic Pills, For all the purposes of a Laxative Medicine. M Perhaps no one medi cine 1h so universally required by eveiy body as a cathartic, nor was ever auvbe fore so universally adopted into use, in every country and among all classes, as this mild but efficient purgative rill. Tho obvious reason is, that it is a more relia —==- hie and far more ef fectual remedy than any other. Those who have tried it, know that it cured them: those who have not, know that it cures thoirneighbors and friends; and all know that what it does once it does al ways that it uevor fails through any .fault or neg glect of its composition. We have thousands upon thousands of certificates of their remarkable euros of the following complaints, but such cures are known in every neighborhood, and we need not publish them. Adapted to all ages and conditions in all climates; containing neither calomel norany deleterious drug, they may be taken with safety by anybody. Their sugar-coatiitg preserves them ever fresh,and makes them pleasant to tuke, while being purely vegetable, no harm can arise from their use in any quantity. They operate by their powerful influence on tho internal viscera to purify tho blood and stimulate it into healthy action—'remove the obstructions of tho stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of the body, restoring their irregular action to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such de rangements as are the first origin of disease. Minute directions are given in the wrapper on the box, for the following complaints, which these Pills rapidly cure:— For or Indigestion, liNtleM9- vea, languor and Kioss of Apnotite, they should be taken moderately to stimufate the stom ach, and restore its healthy tone and action. For liiver Complaint and its various symp toms, Billions lleaihii'lie, Mick Head, ache, Jiiniidicn or (reen gicknem, Bit. Josis Colic and lliiiou* Covers, they should be judiciously taken for each case, to correct the diseased action or remove tho obstructions which cause it. For llysentery or Diarrhoea, but one mild dose is generally required. For ItlKMiiuatlim, Gout, firarel, Pal pitation of tlie Heart, Pain in the Side, Pack and JLoinn, they should be contin uously taken, as required, to change the diseased action of the system. With such change thoso complaints disappear. For Dropsy and Dropsical Swelling* they should be taken in largo and frequent doses to produce the efl'ect of a drastic purge. For Nujipretsion a large dose should be taken as it produces the desired effect by sym pathy. Asa Dinner Pill, take one or two Pills to promote digestion and relieve the stomach. An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and bowels into healthy action, restores the appetite, and invigorates the system. Hence it is often ad vantageous where no serious derangement exists. One who feels tolerably well, often finds that a dose of those Pills makes him fed decidedly bet ter, from their cleansing and renovating effect on tho digestive apparatus. Dr. ,f. C.
