A scholar in ouo of BiDghampton’s public schools, who bud been over the map of Asia, was reviewed by bis teacher, with tbe following result: "What is geography ?” “A big book.” "What is tbo oartb composed of?" “Mud.” “No* land and water.” “Well, that makes mad, don’t it?” “What is the shape of the-earth ?” “Flat.” / “Yon know better. If I should dig bole through tbe earth, where wonld come out ?” “Out of tbo hole.” We have jnst found out . where tbo term “drummer” originated. It is from tbo Arabic “dramerdary.” Tbe dromedary iB the ship of the desert, makes long trips that nothing else on tfartb could stand, and in fact gets pyer more ground in a given space of time thau any other animal that Capt. George Washington Noah bad in bis menhgerie. TW only difierence is that [the dromedary drinks ahead enough to last him Ibe whole trip.— We have found the origin of tbe word and wo want a chromo. •*Hoxv4®Foujn*nu**,»» I Said a lady to her friend, “to nppeat so bnppy all the time?” “I always buve Parker’s Ginger Tonic handy,” was the reply, “and thus keep myself and family in good, health.

A' writer 1 id the Industrial' Review advises tbe introduction of tbe bam- boo in tho SontKerS' States. Though capnble of growing on tbe uplands, it is Raid to be espOeiidlJ'suited to and valuable for low-tyltig mirshy reglOns such as fringe tbo South Atlantic and Gulf States. Its use; ore numerous. As a timber for construction and building purposes, for tooola, imple ments, etc., it is well known. Af an article of food, its young shoots serve as substitutes for vegetables, and are pronounced as delicious. Bamboo curry and cdow-ehow are excellent.— Tbe growing plant is invaluable also as a defense against malaria, sweep ing fires and cyclones.

No person is so dangerous to tbe peace and happiness of a community aS the one who magnifies little things into great things,* nnd takes special pains to tell you the slanderoqs gos sips of tbe neighborhood.
