whose children (grsy-headed; old boys)
claim and insist is 111 years old, and our

very old Bible and reliable documentary
evidence to prove it. , The. old woman is ;
rather infirm, bat is ble to get about,"
sod baa a peculiar way of standing when
in the presence of others and patting first
one foot and then the other. As an intelli
gent conversationalist she has long ceased
to be a success, though f hs talks occasion
ally, and with some degree of Bpirit and
animation, of "the times that tried men's
souls . She is certainly a very old woman.

of ho speaks, Mere can be no economy without yon
have, and to spare. Poor people, he says, waste
more than the rich.nsd there is more parsimony in
brown stones than log cabins. We have CIGARS,
for example, that smoke well, and TWO FOR ON

one of out MUM MS' EXTRA DRY, 10 cents each
had better Rive np the vile habit altogether, and
make the practice of it In any oody else s misde

a Christian, and good food will civilise a Hottentot,

When Bonaparte failed with his legions he always
sent his cooks against his enemies, and they never
failed, which reminds us of our
