Nature's methods are Blow and far from economical ; the gardener's business is to reach the same end by a shorter route.—H. C. Davidson. People who spend their time doing good work at such places as ragged schools are the people who hold society together.—Bishop Welldon. A horse-couper was trying to sell a broken-winded, gasping horse, and was trotting him round for inspection. He stroked the horse's back, and remarked to ths prospective buyer—"Hasn't he a lovely coat?" "Ob," said the other, "I like bis coat all right, but I don't like his pants." A cigarette is the perfect type of a perfect pleasure. It is exquisite, and it leaves one unsatisfied. What more can yon want?— Wilde.
