And *<» his eves were crossed. A friend of ours visiting a neighbor found him disabled from having a horse step on his fo«'t. Hobbling out to the stable, the sufferer explained how it had happened : “I was stand ing here,” slid he, “and the horse brought his f<mt right down on mine.” Ottr friend looked at the injured memlier, which was of the Xo. 14 pattern, and said very qni?tly, “Well, Ham. the horse must step somewhere.” Seven gamblers were aUmt to he hung, when one of them remarked sorrow fully, “Well. Jim; we've had our list game." “ No,’’re pled Jim ; “one more, and that w ill lie a game of seven up.” “Well,” remarked the other, “there's one consolation, that game will hold out till the ‘last trump is played.” Leap Year Dialooie.—"Miss, will you take my arm ?" “ Yes. and you too." “Can't spare but the arm,” replied the bach elor. “Then," replied slie, “ 1 shan’t take it, as my motto is, go the whole hog or induing.” A Dutch nieml»er of t!ie Pennsylvania I.e gisl.iture on his return home after the adjourn ment of that body, was asked bv one of bis constituents w hut had been done during the Session. “ I don’t know the replied) vot de oilers do—but fur myself, I dear vuu buudred dollars bv it.” A committee, -ays J.ibn Phoenix, waited on Juc Bowers when he was a candidate for the Legislature in California, and wanted him to state what his politics were. “Gentlemen," said Joe,“I have none." "What! Mr. Bow ers, no politics?’ “No, gentlemen, not a U-d politic!” Joseph was not elected. Mrs. Wiggles ex pro--cd her disappointment the other day on taking up the pa]«er thus:— “ La sakes, there ain't a single living person dead that I know ; it seems to me there am’t no news in this p iper." A line in one of Moore’s songs reads thus; “ Our couch shall l<e r ses bespangled with dew.” To which a sensible girl replied:— “ Twould give me the rheumatiz. and so it would you.” A lady n r^ntly advertised for employment ns follows: “A y mg widow lady wishes to superintend t wi lower’s household, and would uot object to the supewi,i.« of a child."

A young Hi >n gererally gives a Bx»k of h s hair to his sweetheart before he marries her.-— After marriage she con help herself— without scissors. An old bachelor thinks that the trains of ladies' dresses are infernal chine.*, from the fi 't that a blow-up took place immediately af ter he put his foot on one.
