It was a dentist who complained in tho country that a wasp has only one tooth. "That puts a, different fare on it," tiaid a swindler when he raised a check from 20 to 8200." It is peculiar how sound a man sleeps when MiTwifs crawls over him on her way to the kitchen to make a fire. The young lady in the novel who "tripped lightly down the stairs" to meet her lover used court plaster for her injuries. ' A member of the Colorado legislature in addressing that august body began: "My fellow-statesmen." His bill passed unanimously. There is a five-legged mule in Mis souri.

Six Jerseymen have banded together to raise 1,000,000 watermelons for this year's market, and yet we talk about the ickedness of Nihilist conspiracies.

A young Iowa farmer writes to his friends in the East, who have been urging him to marry, that he cannot keep a wife on "thin wind and pond water and sleeping on a rail fence.' The Boss " System Among: Esqui maux Dogs. There is always one bully in every team, whn gets all the choice bits that are stolen by the others, and generally manages to keep fat, no matter how short they are of provisions. He waits for the others to make the raid, and then stands on the outside to take it away from them. These Imllies are in several grades. There is the chief, of whom all are afraid, and then there is the next in rank, of whom all are afraid but the chief ; a third, of whom all are afraid but the two, and so on down. Sometimes tho food is cut into small pieces and thrown out upon the ice for all to help themselves, and then there is a rough-and-tumble fight, and snarl ing and growling, as if a whole cage of hyenaj had broken loose. But here the bullies have no advantage ; indeed, the advantage is with the small, lively fel lows that slip in and get the meat while the big ones are fighting. When a dog manages to steal a piece of meat he has a lively time of it, fir soon every dog in camp is after him, and he has to eat it on the run, if at all, headed off at every turn by one oj the bullies, and whining and choking at the same time.. .

" I have a lile girl," said Mr. Henry Dole, of this city, in a conversation, "who was trovftded with a severe lameness in her legs, pronounced by sc vj Erysipe las, by others Rheumatism. I had tried several remedies without effect, when I was induced to apply St. Jacobs Oil and I am happy to say that the use of but one bottle cured her, and she is now able to go to school again." 5T The Noise of Niagara. Mr. William L. Carpenter, in writing of a visit to the Falls of Niagara-last winter, heartily sympathizes with the impression which the sound of the mighty rush of water made upon Mr. Schuyler, who thus concluded an article in Scribner's: " I have spoken only of the pitch and rhythm of Niagara. Whatjra the quality of its tcne? Divine! There is no other word for a tone made and fashioned by the infinite God. I repeat, there is no roar at all it is the sub ifmest music upon earth." t Attluboro Chro.'iiele. Carry the News. Mr. John Etzensperger, Manufactur ing Jeweler of North Attleboro', Mass., lately communicated to us tho following: I Buffered so much with pains in my arm, that at times I was completely helpless. I used that incomparable remedy St. Jacobs Oil and was completely cured as if by magic. The truly great and good, in affliction, bear a countenance more princely than they are wont; for it is the temper of the highest hearts, like the palm tree, to strive most upward when it is most burdened.

Lips, says our correspondent Bow ditch, owe their extreme red color to the thinness of the covering membrane, and their sensitiveness to an abundant supply of minute nervous fibers'. latCmanly face the upper lip should extend beyond and dominate the, lower. Fleshy lips are often found associated with a volup tuous, and flfceager ones with a passion less, nature.' Lips are delicious things blessings of many agreeable concomi tants, such as smiles, sweet words, and those never-to-be-sufficiently-appreci-ated intensities denominated " kisses.' There is something soothing and de lightful in the recollection of a pure minded woman's kiss ; it is the oasis in the desert of a worldly man's life, to which his feelings turn for refreshment, when wearied with the unhallowed .pas sions of this work-o'-day world. Lips are emotion's dwelling place, and pas sion'stheir breathing giveth vitality to affections of all sorts, a friend's, a par ent's, a sister's, a brother's, a lover's. Lips that smile are gems ; those that cannot smile are like buds that cannot blossom, and which dry upon the stalks. Eternal praise to lips in general, and especially to the couple we hold dearest.

Six years ago my mother was at tacked with pneumonia. Tho attending physi cian 'some time after' told mo that the dia easo had settled on her Lungs, and that she had tho consumption. Not believing that a permanent cure could bo effected, but thinking I might he able to got an expectorant not con taining opium, which would afford some relief, I inquired of a druggist at Biohmonr1 Ya., ii lie had any medicine not containing opium that was a good expectorant.
