How Long Would She Run if

Wound Up?

ae oe

A siab-sided, mud-covered granger

entered a Main street clock store about dusk Saturday evening, and, bewildered jook, asked: _ this where a man can gita clock?’

it “Yes, sir.” said the clerk. y

”?

that ticker worth?’ pointing to an » ornate and intricate piece of time-re cording mechanism on the shelf.

“That, sir,” said the clerk, “is a wonderful timepiece, It is worth $200 and will run three years without wind- ing.”

“Great Scott!” gasped the stranger ; “three years without winding! Say, mister, how long would the blamed thing run if she was wound up?”

———_- ... - _—

A Rational Change.

“Arkansaw,” exclaimed the ardent man, ‘why it is the best State in the Union, a State above all others in re- sources and the exactness with which the criminal laws are enforced.”

“Tam astonished to hear you speak so well of the State,” some one re- plied.

“Why so?”

‘*Because, several years ago, duriug an exciting campaign in Iodiana, you avowed that there was no such thing as justice in Arkansaw, a State where a man Carried his life in his band.”

“That is very true, my dear sir, but [ was a politician theo.”

“And what are you now ?”

“A land agent.”

She Rarely Gets Left.

A clever lady, now in the outskirts of Jamaica, L, L., was once caught in the wrong, yet extricated herself grace- fully. She was trying to milk her first cow, her husband’s gift, and in her ignorance had stationed herself on the left. It was near the public road. A man riding by stopped at the novel sight and blurted out :

“Madam, you are on the wrong side of that cow.”

[t was news to her, but her ready wit came toher aid. “Yes, sir,” was her pleasant reply, “but this isn’c a common cow. She was raised by a left-handed womap.”’

An Awfal Hard Question in Arith- me.ic.

A teacher in the public schools had promoted a little pupi!, and meeting her a few days later, said :

“Well, Lizzie, how do you get on in your new class ?”

“Ob, pretty well. I missed in arith- metic to-day, but it wasan awful hard question.”

“Let me hear what the question was,” said the teacher.

“It was: ‘How many chickens had the boy?” said little Lizzie, and the symputhizing teacher agreed’ that it was a puzzle.

They Never Say Pants in Boston.

A young lady from the West, who is!

visiting friends in Boston, made use of the word “pants” in the presence of her aunt.

“In Boston, Sarah, dear,’ corrected her aunt, “*we never say ‘pants,’”

“IT beg pardon,” said the Western young woman, witha blush of vexation, “I should have said ‘pawats,’”

That's What He Was Fishing For.

A boy placed a big apple on the front steps, and went across the street to see who would take it. A gentleman who had observed the aciion, said: “You shouldo’t do that, my son. Some poor boy may be tempted to steal it.” “Thav’s what I’m fishing tor, sir. I've hollered Out the ioside and filled it with mus- tard,”

Why He Took Water.

“I notice, Mr. Yeast, that you always | take a drink of water before you begin |

your meal,” said the lady to Yeast at dinner. “It has been my custom ever since 1 first eatered my boarding house.” And why do you do it?”

“To whet my ippetite, yon know,”’

boarding-house

There is more or less chivalry in the West among the gentlemen who admin- ister the decrees of Judge Lynch. It is related that diana the other day permitted its victims to select the trees upon which they were hanged. This is only equalled by the story of the Colorado vigilantes who postpoed the suspeusion of a horse thief for five minutes in order that he might finish his cigar, the leader of the band remarking at the close of the pertorm- ance: ‘ Thus may we see that the habit of tobacco smoking sometimes prolongs human life,”
