A "bull" may lie said to Ik a gross contra
diction, or blunder In sjieech. It was de
rived from ono Obndlnli Dull, n lawyer in
tho tlmo of Henry VIII, w ho was celebrated,
rather than famous, for tho blunders which
fell from his lips when ho plendel before tho
Judges.
A witty Irishman, ujkjii being asked for
tho definition of u bull, saidi "If you see two
cowh lying down nlono in the meadow, the
one standing up is invariably it bull."
Miss Kdgoworth, in her essay ou "Irish
IlttlN," glvm tho following! "When I llrst
saw- you, I thought it was jou, nnd now I seo
It is your brother." "I met you this morn
ing mid you did not come; M meet you to
morrow morning, whether you cotnoor not."
"Oh, if I hndbtnjod in that cliiuato until
now I'd have been dead two years."
During tho Irish rebellion, an Irish paper
published this Item: "A man named Mc
Carthy was run over by n passenger ttuln
and killed on Wednesday. Ho wan injured
In a similar way two years ngo."
In 17BI the Irish house of commons issnctl
an order to this effect: "Any mcmlor uunhUi
to wrlto may get minther member to frank
his letter for him, but only ou condition that
ho cnrtiilcN with his own handwriting hU In
ability on the luck of It."
A well known English epitaph commences
ns follows:
"Header. If thou canst road." This is
somewhat akin to the hand board which
read- "The ford is dangerous when this

Tho suggestion for tho duplicate glrdlo was

seductive. I saw at Lenox several elegant

THE O. M. JAHVIS CO., (icntlenien:
I have made made a chemical examination of tJic sample of Jarvis Pear Cidci
stihinittcd to me a few davs ago, and would icport tlusc points amomg olbeis noted.
The liquid is non-alcoholic nnd has a specific giavity of 10.65. The total extrac
tive matter amounts to 10 25 per cent , containing only 025 per ci-ntot free acid. The
tests show this acid to he malic ncid ns usuidh found in frtdt jukes. 1 find no other
acid or foreign substance added for color or flavor.
I believe it, Ihucfoie, to coiifclst simply of the juice of the Pear as represented.
