Ax Ixui'iiiixo l‘llSlln—dt is said ot'a great English lawyer, whose learning was a source of astonishment to every out". that much of it was acquired by a dispo- sition at all times to ask questions. it is possible that such notions actuated the Chief of Police, on Friday, when his office was visited by a pretty young mat» ron, whose claim to consideration was evinced by ii remarkably handsome baby which she carried in her arms.

“ That is a very pretty baby," madam, said that polite oliicial to the smiling matron, “ ii remarkably pretty baby l"

“ Do you think so ?' ‘\\'ell, yes ; he has been very much admired, I must confess."

“ There is no doubt of that, I dare say. How old is he ?"

“ Only two months old."

“ Don't they ?' replied the unsuspecting Chief. “ The rensonI asked, my wife and mvself are talking about adopting one I”

“ Oh! in that case, I should advise you to get a divorce ; I am a widoiv mysclt l"

The Chief looked as if he didn't exactly understand, and hastily turned to the transaction ufotlier business.

Perhaps Itosyposy expec.ed too much. Not the honey-moon don’t shine some or so, but that some or so 0! ,it is moon-shine.

A facetious boy asked one of his play- ‘mates why a hardware dealer was like a bootmaker? The hitter. somewhat puz- zled, gave it up. “ Why," said the other, “because the one sold the nails and the other nailed the soles. ”

“ You must admit, doctor," said a witty lady to a celebrated doctor of divin- .ily, with whom she was arguing the question of “ equality of the sexes," ~“you must admit the woman was created before man "’

“ \Vell, really, Madam," said the as- tonished divine, “ I must ask you to prove your case."

A New Hampshire man told a story :about a flock of crows nine miles long, so thick that you could not see the sun shine through it. “Don't believe it," was the reply. “Wei,” said the narrator, “ you're a. stranger, and I don‘t want to quarrel with you. So to please you I‘ll take off a quarter of a mile from the thin- nest part."

IIow balmy the morning atmosphere— how genial the sunshine! But, oh! in ,llllel‘ years, how often do we find that choking tares have been sown in midst, or that the once promisng Iielil has been blighted and scared by untimely frosts .and scorching drought?

During the war a lady passing from cot to cut through the wards of the hos pital was shocked to hear a felloiv laugh— ing at her. She stopped to rcprove the wretched fellow. “ Why, look here, ma'am,” says he, “you've given me ii tract on the sin ofdancing, when I‘ve got both legs shot off."

A youngish man, who had seen better days, asked a gentleman for a “ trifle," which would be most “ welcome " to as- sist him on his return to his native place. He was told that the Strangers' Friend So:iety would help him to a passage to Ireland. “Och, sir," he exclaimed, “ I'm .not an Irishman at all, at all! It's quite a mistake your honer's making." The gentleman persisted in his persuasion that he was an Irishman, and appealed to his brogue. “ IIa‘." the man rejoined, “I was in a large mercantile consarn in London for many years, where they (Ii;l a dale of business with Iriland; and as I was correspondin' cliirk, may be Icaught the hrngue that way."

They keep accounts of farm operations.

They do not leave their implements scattered over the farm, exposed to the rain, snow and heat.

They repair tools and buildings at the pm] or time, and do not siill'er a three- lolil expenditure oftime and money. They use their money judiciously and do not attend auction sales to purchase all kind of trumpery because it is “ cheap."

They do not refuse to make correct experiments, in a small way, of many new things.

They plant their fruit trees well, care for them, and they get good crops.

Successful farming is made up by at- tention to little things. The farmer who does his best earns his money with best appreciation. and uses it with best results. ,Such men are the “ salt of the earth."
