THE WEEKLY SUN Billings Wit and Wisdom. HOARSE SHOT. Whenever you see a doktor who filwtiH travels on the jutnp, you ken Let he is looking for a job. The bulk of mankind are mere imi tators of very poor originals. It iz a grate deal easier tew be a philosopher after a man has had a warm meal than it iz when he don’t know whare he is going to git one. Most men lament their condishun in life, there are but phew, after all, who are superior to it. To never dispair may bi God like, but ain’t human. Affektashun looks well in a mon key. Tricing to define love Is like Trie fng to tell how yon knm to brake thru the ice ; all you know about it iz, yu fell in and got ducked. The prinsipal important of a mid* lory is the mistery itself. Wlmt makes a ghost so respekta ble a koracter iz that nobody ever Baw one. The pedigree that we receive from our ancestors iz like the money we rocoivo from them ; we are not ex* poctod to live on the principle, but on the accumulation and transmit tho principle unimpaired. A weak man wants at much watch ing as a bad man. It iz hard work tew define human happinoss ; the real possessor ov it iz the verry one who kant define it. Wealth is no guard against villainy; thore iz as much iniquity amung the rich az among the poor ackording tow numbers. A wise man nevor enjoys himself so much nor a phool so little, as when alone. Avarice iz as hungry as the grave. Thero iz a great deal of virtew in this world that iz like jewelry, more for ornament than use. I am satisfied that courage in men h oftener the effekt ov konstitution than ov principle. About the best thing that experi ence kan teach us iz tew bear misfor tins and sorrow with komposura Fashion Notes. —i — Blue overcoats and gilt buttons Will be the style for the next winter. Imported jet trimimngs and orna ments will be fashionable this autumn. Grape leaves fried in egg batter is anew watering-place dish. In Peru the longest ears are con sidered the handsomest, and a great mark of beauty in the females. It’s no use any longer for ladies to Wear expensive jewelry; the imitation cannot be told from the real article. Chinese slippers, of pale blue, red or pear colored leather, with turned up pointed toes, are the fashionable morning shoes. It is expected that the m osfc ele gant entertainments that Washing ton society will witness next winter will be given at the French legata tion. Anew mantle named the “Von Dhoden,” add anew shade of polon aise yelept the “Vienna" will claim the attention of the feminine World this fall. The last number of Le Follet Contains a paragraph which will make Paterfamilias groan and Maritus sigh. Here it is. Every lady with the least approach to good taste is at length beginning to understand the true secret des Parisiennes; merely that not only must every component part of the toilette cor respond in style, but that the whole toilette itself must be in accordance With the season, the time of day, the Occasion on which it is worn. Scandal. It is a curious reflection, to make, but probably a just one, that scandal flourishes all the more because seandel mongers re ceive no gain from r their proceedings.— Many other crimes are attended by person td gain, and what is gained often furnishes the means of detection and punishment. If by a merciful provision of nature, it was arranged that a portion of the charaete f taken away by K&ndal should attach itself to those who invent or propagate the scan dal, the world like the birds in the fable, would be ready to fly upon the scandal mongers and deprive those daws of the plumes thus gained. In the present state of affairs, these lovers and propagators of scandal do not gain the smallest shred of honor or reputation by their scandal mon gering aud consequently they feel much less shame and meet with much less re proof as their civil sayings are attended by no personal advantage. It is only very nice and sensitive consciences tbsrt enable their owners to suffer remorse when they have heedlessly invented'or furthered scan dal. PRESS FOR SALE 1 A GOOD PRESS FOR an AMATUER.
