Like heaven serene is Anna’s eye,

Who moves than Juha more entrancing?
But when the stars keep *atch on high,
And silouce lulls the lone savanna,
Then to the moonlit grove I fly,
And whisper loiu to lovely Anna.

But who shor.l.l he my ‘‘Heart’s Delight,”

A LITTLE NONSENSE.
A Detroit woman observes that if
she was Bob ingersoll’s wife she’ll
make him believe there was a ncli,
or snatch him bald-headed.
A Clergyman meeting an inebriated
neighbor exclaimed, ‘Drunk again,
iWilkinsi’ To which Wilkins, in a
sciui-confidential tone responded,‘olio |
am I, Parson.’
It took a Harvard student only two
years to conquer Latin, but he was

Tacked up conspicuously in our J
oflice is a card which says, “I’os- '
itively no swearing” Which is unfor- !
tunate, because while we wanted to
swear off, we must obey the rules.
It is easier for a camel to go
through the eye of a needle than to
convince a woman with very large
feet that skating is a healthy and
graceful exercise.
A Philadelphia miser, wanting a
■dog to guard his property, selected a ,
bob-tailed one, his theory being that j
the exertion of wagging a long tail j
would increase the dog’s appetite. j
“M arie,” said a pious husband to
his wife: “Them wicked Smiths are j
allowing their children to play in the i
yard on Sunday. To-morrow I'll i
set the dogs on their chickens. The
vengeance of God must be visited on
’em some day."
“You are now one,” said the min
ister to the happy pair he had just
tied together with a knot that they
could never undo. “Which one
asked the bride. “You will have to
settle that for yourselves," said the
clergyman.
If yon want to study the immense
variety of the human face in expres
sion, you should bend your gaze
upon the mobile countenance of a
deaf 3nd dumb man when he reaches
under the plank walk for a lost nickle,
and picks up a raw bumble bee by
the stem.
It is about as hard to find a girl
whose marriage is announced in the
newspapers who is not ‘beautiful and
accomplised’ as it is to find a man
who has just died who was not ‘hon
ored and respected by all who knew
him.
A very diminutive man once j
solicited the hand of a buxom girl. |
“Oh, no,” said the fair but insulting
young lady ; “I can’t think of it for a j
moment. The fact is, Tom, you are j
a little too big for a cradle and a lit- j
4,1 c too small to go to church with.”

The New York House.
•On* of the traveler* for a new fresh
dry goods house recently arrived in a
town in .Massachusetts, to find that
one of his best customers was al>oiit
•to transfer his cutsom to a Boston
house.
Didn’t we always do well by you?
asked the New Yorker, as he sat
down for an explanation.
Yes, I believe so.
Didn’t we ship goods promptly?
Ye s.
and did we ever press you in a pinch ?
No.
Did you get lower prices of the Bos
ton house?
No, I can’t say as I did.
Then I can’t understand why you
should leave our house all of a s.id
den after buying of us several years.
1 know that some explanation js
due, and I will make one, replied
the merchant.
You know that I attend church?
Yes. and so do I.
Do you? I didn’t know that. I am
looked upon as a Christian.
So am I. Iv’egot the date of my
baptism right here in my note book.
Is that so? Well, our church is in
need of repairs. We wore talking
it over the other day, when the Bos.
ton drummer was in here, and he at
once subscibed ten dollars.
Ten dollars ! why that's only two
kegs of nails ! Put me down for thirty
dollars cash a new silk hat for every
season, and a full suit of clothes for
the minister.
Do you realy mean it?
Of course I do, and if that two
cent Christian from Boston dares sign
another five, I'll send you down a
8600 church organ and pay a man
SSOO per year to play it. We a
house which ncyer make any great
display of gospel hymns, but when a
Boston drummer bluffs, we show our
religious band and rake in the pot
every time.
The merchant will still continue to
deal with the New York house.
Mrs Topnoody went into a furni
ture store the other day and wanted
to buy a parlor chair,
“Well,” said the polite clerk,
“here is a nice one.” allowing her a
beautiful piece of wicker-work.
Mrs. T. shook it and then shook
her head.
“How do you like the heavier
one?’’ said the clerk.
She shook the chair and shook her
head.
Then he showed her half a dozen,
but they were rejected as too light.
At last the exasperated clerk broke
out:
“Good heavens! madame, do you
want an iron sealed brick chair with
a stone foundation ?’’
“Yes, that’s it, that’s it,” cried
Mrs. T. raptiously. “You see my
Jane has got her clamps on a sure
pop beau tbis winter, and he comes
every night, and between ’em they’ve
broke down every chair in the parlor,
and now, before I’ll have my sofys
smashed or break the engagement,
I’ll get one strong enough to carry
’em through the campaign if it takes
Topnoody’s wages for a year. I
was a gal once myself, and know
how it Is!”
She left her order for the “stone
foundation” stlye.
