MIRTHFUL MORSELS.
New York is disgusted at a bashful young clergyman who was reading the Holy Scripture in this way : " And immediately the cock wept and Peter went out and crew.' 1 " When I put my foot down, I'll have you to understand," said Mrs. Nojokor, " that there's something- there." On investigation, it was found to be a No. 11 shoe. It is said that bleeding a partially blind horse at the nose will restore him to sight ; so much for the horse. To open a man's eye you must bleed him in the pocket. " With all thy faultsl love tbee still," as the man said to bis wife when she was giving him a carUin lecture. A Delaware man lost his wife and a racehorse by the same stroke of lightning, and he tried for two hours to revive the horse.
What is that which is' co brittle that if you name it you are sure to break it? Silence.
