OLD lady to druggist 1 want a box
of canine . " '
pills. Druggist "What' :
the matter with the dog 'i Old lady
( indignantly ) I want you to know ,
sir , that my husband is a gentleman !
Druggist puts up some quinine pills
in profound silence.
MAXV do not clearly understand
what the foot and mouth disease is.
Tlie Iowa Falls Sentinel explains as
follows : Any person- who loves to
peddle slander , and who make it a
point , when they here bad things , to
trot oil' and tell others , is afflicted with
the foot and mouth disease.
Ax unsophisticated and ingenious
exchange tells of a lady "whose hair
touches the mmmd when it is unloos-
O
ened. " The editor should know that
there are many ladies who have hair
that would touch the sidewalk from a
fifth-story window when it is unloos
ened , if they didn't hang itipon a
nail , or a chair , or the floor , or some
thing.
A DIXIXU-UOOM girl writes to the
Atclu'son Globe as follows : "Nine out
of every ten men who enter a hotel din
ing room imagine that they are so stun
ning that the girl waiters will follow
them anywhere , and that the sweet
things they say are entirely original
and cunning. These youths are hereby
informed that they all talk the same
drivel and that the waiters arc always
disgusted. There is some excuse for the
young men , but when the old married
men come in , and go through the same
programme , I experience such a disgust
that I feel like breaking into my own
trunk. The old married man whn imag
ines that he is devilish sly and gay is
usually mean to his wife and children ;
I have no use for him. ' '
Ouu modern female dress reformers
imagine they are starting a new cru
sade against old follies. But they are
mistaken. A hundred years ago and
nore there was a more determined
Avar on female arts and vanities than
low , but the little enticements seem
; o have come out more than conquer
ors. Witness the following parlia
mentary decree which was solemnly
massed and duly registered under
Iving- Louis XV. : "AYhosoever , by
neans of red or Avhite paint , perfumes ,
essences , artificial teeth , false hair ,
otlon "wool , iron corsets , hoops , shoes
with high heels , or false hips shall
seek to entice into the bonds of
uarriage any male subject of his
najesty , shall be prosecuted for
witchcraft and declared incapable of
uatriinony. " There is nothing new
under the sun.
SLJVJ-YOI : GJCXJJAL ATKIXSOX , of
Xew lexico , is still finfhtiiio- for his
* j cj
etention in office. lie has sent Col.
Breeden , attorney general of New
Mexico , all the way to "Washington
to plead in his behalf. Col. Breeden
iias the audacity to say that General
Atkinson , in the disposition of hard
ascs , has secured to the government
during his ofrici xl career over 3,000-
)00 acres of domain , that he has ac
quired an experience and familiarity
with Xew Mexico land owners , which
it would require a new man many
years to do , and that General Atkinson
lias been not only a faithful but an
lionest official and should be retained.
This is indeed an audadious statement
in view of the fact that Atkinson is
he notorious head and front of a riii"O -
of land-grabbers and plunderers com
posed of such men as Steve Elkins
: ind Steve Dorsev. The retirement
/
of Atkinson means the exposure of
the crooked operations of the whole
o-ang , and hence the desperate fight
in his behalf. Atkinson has played a
crh hand in Xew Mexico , as well as
a biir irame of poker , and is charged
with misdemeanors of all sorts that
ou"'ht to have been the caiibC of his
removal long ago. Ilis commission
expired last winter , and his further
retention in office is not in the interest
of honest government and public
morals. IIcTis altogether too familiar
with the big- land owners of Xew
Mexico. Bee.
