Cartersville, Ga. Oatln and LaUt. Like Milton’s tifseription of th* dev il’s prfttfiradiif 1 tit, the Radical’s can truly say ; “Which way I turn is hell —myself am ! ell.’’ In place of saving things tit make peojde stare-tmi border, lay whalwi!) keep llie*in from staring ami wondering hereafter ; this is philosophy. To economise is to draw in as much as possible. The ladies apply this art to iheius'dves, and the result is a very small waist. Lawyer ; “The coat's too lonf, the waistcoat’s to **>na ; iti fact, li e entire suit’s 100 long.” Tailor ; “Dear me, sir, I’m very sorry ; but the fact is, I— t thought gentlemen of y'dllf profes sion preterred long suits.” Peevishness may he considered the canker of life, that destroys its vigor and checks its improvement—that rret ps on with hourly depredations laints and vitiates what it cannot con sume.—John Soil. Many • min far the love of self, To stuff bis colTeru starves himself, Libor*, accumulates ami spares, 'fo lay up ruin for his heirs- Grudges the porif tin If scanty dole : Saves everyMing—rxcupt his soul. It lias been thought that people are degenerating beeausethey don’t live as long as in the days of Methuselah.— But nobody can aflord to live at the current prices. A cautious tfld bachelor, who knows that the present is leap year, say* : “If you meet a young lady who is not very shy, you had better he a little shy \ ourself.” For several weeks an exchange kept the following conspicuously at the head of its local column : “A boy wanted at ibis office.” A few days since t lie editor’s wife presented him with “a boy,” which, in a highly sig nificant manner, shows the value of advertising. A man who will stab at another’s reputation by insinuation a a inuendo is far worse than a thief. Goods you may replace, but character, once los\, i? almost irredeemable, and, as a great writer has said, a word is enough to ruin a man. “My dear,” Said a smiling Spouse to her half, “I’m going a shopping to day, and want a little cliJllge.’’ “Pooh 1” responded ihe savage, “that would he no Change at all | you co shopping every day.” In good society we are required to do oblingitig tilings to one another; in general society we are required on* ly to say them. Idleness is hard work to those who are not used to it, and dull work to those who are. A bootblack recently arrested in Lon don, though only fourteen years of age. is reported to he well acquainted with the French and Polish languages and to have beeri studying German. The latest puzzle has relation to a very lamentable fact in regard to lh» present spring. It is C 0 S I winch a long headed friend interprets to mean “the C’s on is backward and so it is. An old fovolfcf —the earth. Centre of gravity—a judge in court. Motto for the married—Never dis pair. A round of Pleasure for llie Young —A plum pudding. Ail essence that yields most—Ac” quiescnce. A strain in the car is more agrccaUr than one in the bark. lie is a good shoemaker who is faith ful to the last, ”~A real teetotal curiosity—a pair of watertight buots. The likeliest lish to laugh—The trout; it is so easily tickled. The generality o! men spend the early part of their lives in eontrinuting to render the latter part miserable, There is no extrlusiee property In truth f it belongs to him who recogniz< cs it. It not unfrcquently happens that man* ners are best learned fro* the Unman nerly i tthflffj tint* stn artist appears rtfott ihormrghfy miserable f When lie draws a long face.
