I Wish He'd Make up his Mind.
UY }f. C. K.
I wish bo would make up Ids mind, nm,
For I don't care? much longer to wait,
I'm sure I havo hinted quite strongly
That I thought of chnnging my state;
For a sweetheart he's really too backward,
I can't bring him out, though I try;
I own that bo's very good tempered,
But then he's so dreadfully shy !
When I speak about love and a cottage,
He gives mo a look of surprise;
And if I hut hint at n marriage;
no blushes quite up to his eyes;
I can't mako him jealous?I've tried it?
And 'tis no use my being unkind,
For that's not the way I am certain,
To get him to make up his mind.
I've 'sung him love sonnets by dozens,
I've worked him both slippers and Iiobc,
And we've walked by moonlight together
Yet ho never nttcmpts to proposo !
You must really ask his intention,
Or pome other beau I must find;
For indeed I won't ttrry much longer
For one who can't make up his mind.
A lively lad swung with much energy
in n San Francisco garden that he threw
himself into n conservatory 30 foot dis
tnut, cut an artery in Iiis? arm, ruined
several hundred dollars worth of rare
planss, and frightened the women a]
n Oft out of their senses.
? forlorn editor speaks thusly;- 'We
give our washerwoman notice that here
after we want our own clothes. Last
Suilday we put on nnotltor fellow's shirt
but couldn't wear at all It w is all
ruffled around tho top and IodIc?I real
handsome, but there was n > place for a
collar, and it hadn't any bosom. Yet,
it Was a handsome shirt, but wc don't
have ours made that way.'
A young lady and gentleman, aged
respectively 12 and 13 years, wore mar
ried ot Gculdtown, Michigan, recently.
YYlitu lost sctn, they were quarrelling
ovir n pound of mixed candies, and
throwing out vague intimations about
divorce.
O, Liltcus ! in our hours of ease, un
ctttnin to\snnd full'of fleas; when pain
or cnguibh hang o'er men, wc turn you
into sausage then.
Did any of cur renders ever think 0f
the amount of travel it takes to rniso a
cu.pofcorn? I never saw an illustfftrj
v^4r^kkKl?ii I *yUfi"^hf"T^?ou!d
pivc you oeo."fMTfivo a twenty-acre
fivld, forty by eight rods. To break this
fp would take 1G0 miles. Ilarrowiug
it) about 40 miles. Furrowing it, 90
miles, if wit n a planter, aud if dropped
and then covered, 90 miles. Aud for
each plowing of two furrows in each
row, 90 miles, or all plowing, 540 miles.
Th?r-, you see, it takes about 800 or 900
nuilca tmrcl to raise twenty acres of corn
not counting going to and returning
ffom tlio Geld. Besides, there replant
ing, tliinuing, rolling, etc
yVitty Ai'OI.ooy.?A physician call
nig one day on a gentleman who had
been severely afflicted with gout, found
to his surprise; the disease goue, and
thegcntlcmau rejoicing in his recovery
over o bottlo of wine. Come along,
doctor;'said tbo valetudinarian, 'you
nro just in time to taste this bottle of
Maderia. It is the first of a pipe that
1 as just been broached.' 'Ah !' replied
the doctor, these pipes of Maderia will
n^yer do'. They aro the cause of all
jeer Buffering.' 'Well, then,' rejoined
the gay incurable, 'fill your glass; for
now that wc havo found out the cauc o
the sooner we get rid of it tho beitor.'
If any one wishes to grow fleshy, a
pint of milk taken before retiring at
night will soon cover the scrawniest
bencs. Although now adays wc see a
grcaJMruany fleshy lemalcs, there arc
many lean and lank ones who sigh for
the iuihiouable measure of plumpness,
and who would be vastly improved in
health and appearnnco could thoir
figurcB !b6 rounded with good solid flesh.
Nothing if more coveted by thin women
than a full figure, nnd nabbing Will so
rouse the ironnd provoko tho Bcandul of
one of these "clipper-builds" as tbo
consciousness of plumpnoss in a rivul.
In cases of fever and suntnior complaint,
milk is now givpn with excellent re
sults. Tbo idea that milk is "fovorieh''
lias, exploded, and it is now tho physi
cians grcab rclinneo in bringing through *
typhoid patients, or tboso iu too low a
etato to bo nourished by solid food. It
is a mistako to scrimp tho milk pitcbor.
Take moro milk and buy less, meat
Look to your milk men, havo largo
sized, well filled milk pitchers on tho
table each meal, and you will also havo
aouud flesh and light doctors bills.
