Is it hot about time that these diaap
p .i .ted ones moved along and left de
cent people in peace? If they have any
thing to say against Mr. Blaine, in hea
veu'd name let them come out with it
like men, nud if they have nothing, let
them keep their heads ehut. The coun
try is tired of this perpetual chin mu
sic. Mr. Blaine was nominated by the
duly elected representatives of the re
publican party. At the news of his
nomination the country broke out into
a shout of triumph that is ringing and
echoing yet, and iu its present humor
the country has neither time tolicten to
Curtis doleful music, nor inclination to
smile at the antics of his monkey, Nast.
Bluine is for the people and the people
are for Blaine, aud Curtis and the
Weekly are, or soon will be, for -gotten

had turned the stomachs of different

The Irish vote has beem the backbone
of the democratic party in New York.
Prior to the democratic couvention the
Iritth leaders sent word that they would
not support Cleveland, .and gave their
reasons. TTe have a theory that the
democrats will cot be able to herd the
Irish vote this year inconsequence. It
will not stand the snubbing.
There are but three ways for a man
to revenge himself of the censure of the
world: To despise it, to returu the like,
or to endeavor to live so as to avoid it
The first of these is usually pretended.
the last is almost, impossible; the uni
versal practice is! for the second.
Here we are, a nation of 56,000,000
people sailing along, and not a word of
direction or advice from Wayne Mc
Veagh for nearly two months. Does
Wayne suppose George William alone
will save the Republic frem ruin?
If you would not have affliction visit
you twice, listen at once to what it
teaches.
Old Mr. White was somewhat irrita
ble when he came down to breakfast,
and when his wife reproved him for ne
glecting to tie up the dog before going
to bed the previous night, he answered
her rather snappishly. Then they had
some words and 6he said :
Well, I'm sure I don't know how
you expect we'll agree in me next
world if we can't agree in this one."
Oh, we'll agree well enough in the
next world," aaid Mr. White sarcasti
cally, 'we won't see much of each
other there. You know the Bible says
there's a great gulf fixed between the
two places."
Having said this the old gentleman
caressed his bald head and snickered to
himself.
Mrs. White was thoughtful for a mo-
meat, then, with a twinkle in her eye
she said:
"This is the first I kndwed of your
havin' given up all hopes of goin to
heaven.
The conxersation dropped.
A lady member of the Female Se-
risis Club agitated the Bobject of start
ing a weekly newspaper, "conducted
wholly by women without the assist
ance of a male man."
The paper was launched on the al
ready troubled waters and hundreds of
copies made ready for "entered at the
Foetoffice as matter of the second class
The enterprising lady called upon the
postmaster for bags wherein to ship
the papers to the government building.
She was r quired to sign the necessary
blank for bags, and an order was is
sued to grant her four mail bags.
She read it through very carefully
before signing it, and her hesitation
was observed by the postmaster, who
informed her that it was a form adopt
ed by the department to keep track of
the bags.
"Ob, that does not trouble me in the
lea6t," replied the lady ; "but can you
not alter the reading of the blank, or
prefix the the letters "fe" to male, so
that it would read female bag, instead
of male bag, as our paper is so thor
oughly devoted to women that we de
sire to be distinctly independent of any
thing of a male character. .-
Mail bags in that office are nailed up
in the wood box.

A good story is told of the bishop of
Atlanta. Ga. He recently addressed a
large assembly of Sunday school chii
dren, and wound up by asking them in
a very paternal and condescending way,
And now is there a-a-ny little boy or
a-a-ny little girl who would like to ask
me s question!" After a pause he re
peated the question. "Is theretuiy little
boy or a-a oy little girl who would like
to ask me a question?" A shrill voice

We meet in society many attractive

There are soft moments even to des

abandon even them.
Dan Yoorbees says, "The republican
party is like the squab biggest whe
first born." We would like to suggest
to the tall sycamore that he open his
mouth and say something more, when
ever be hears of the squab being born
the second time. Even a cat has eight
more lives than the squab but only one
birth. It is understood, by the way.
