No doubt the extreme partiality of stu
dents for 'horses5' is due to their having
jaded tastes.
WISHES FULFILLED.
"I felt deeply everything 1 said in that
essay, and I hope you marked my words."
"That's just exactly what I did, my dear
sir," replied Professor Wredink, blandly.
That student who "always gives a straight
forward answer" never flunked and then had
some one ask hinrwhal his mark was.
TnK TRUTH.
First Student How do you pronounce
that word, phreenology or phronnology?
Second Student Well, the professor
pronounces it a fake.
If you want your word taken on any sub
ject, just fasten it some way or other to your
new lead pencil.
OF COURSE.
Jones Do you remember when it was
I borrowed that five of Brown?
Smith Why, sometime in Lent, I suppose.
THE REASON.
Visitor What's the object of having two
walks leading from the main entrance to the

Though his aspect is mild,
For an "accent" that's wild,
The man from the east is most striking;
His idears have range,
But his wuhds are quite strange,

And often down vistars he's glancing;
Of Ameriker sings,
Yet these changes he rings,
Faw all that awe faw from entrahncing.
INVOCATION.

Thou Muse of mine,
O Muse that can't be hired,
You never go,
You're too blamed slow,
O Muse, you make me tired!

Psychology Professor Why do you per
sist in jabbing your knife into your desk in '
that childish manner, Mr. Smithson?
Smithson Why you see, professor, I am
trying to test my powers of penetration.
